Extroverts are an oppressive class.

Much like morning people.

I call both of them "crack head energy people"

[-] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 2 points 1 day ago

Omg, have you seen them panic when things go wrong? :D

[-] Malfeasant@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

But you repeat yourself. (Hasn't it been shown there's a high correlation between morning people and extroversion?)

[-] agent_nycto@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago

I hate the Internet's "extrovert vs introvert" tribalism. And it's always the same two jokes. "Extroverts bad will suck out your soul and shame you for not liking it" and "ha ha we introverts use extroverts to get friends we don't want friends we want to stay home and read and extroverts adapt us".

and then people wonder why there's a loneliness epidemic and complain they have no friends.

It’s not a joke. You clearly just haven’t spent any time around or are an insufferable extroverted early riser. We literally have to change the time the sun comes up because getting to work at 9 is just out of the question.

what's with the seemingly paired together disdain for extroverts and early morning people, I haven't heard of this pairing before

sincerely, an introverted early morning person

it's just nice to clock out at 3 and fuck off to live my life before it gets dark

My brain doesn't fully boot until like 10pm

I cannot control it. Life would be a lot easier if i could

[-] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago

my brain is fuckin ded after 3pm due to nonstop activity at work lol

[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

I wasn’t discounting the existence of people in the sides of the Venn diagram, just talking about people in the middle.

[-] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago

yeah I've just never seen the combo mentioned before tbh

[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

Then you must be one of today’s lucky 10,000.

[-] howrar@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago

Agreed. Early mornings and late nights are the times of day where you don't have to worry about human interaction. These are introvert hours.

[-] agent_nycto@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

I'm with you on the morning people at least. I'm saying the tribalism is stupid.

[-] chocosoldier 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

for one, you're definitely bringing some weird tribalism to the discussion. i'm "introverted" as fuck, i love staying at home alone for days or weeks on end having contact with nobody. left to my own devices i also tend to get up at sunrise. which basket do i go in?

for two, by "changing the time the sun comes up" do you mean daylight savings? because while i agree it's a stupid idea to begin with, that's a fucking wild take with no basis in fact. dst exists because of capitalist greed and lobbying, the point is to drive profit by extend shopping hours not to oppress you for being a night owl.

the supposed "introvert/extrovert" dichotomy is some simulated minority bullshit on par with gamergaters and incels. the terms are about patterns of behavior and tendency not hard and fast classification of people. fuck's sake get a grip. the enemy is capitalism not people who wake up and do stuff in the morning.

Life's short and it's nice spending it and sharing it with others.

A lot of my friends that prefer to be alone actually want to hang out but most people hate organizing and stuff. So I usually make the effort. It's better to have stories and experiences that are shared. Better being like, remember when we saw that game together? Remember trying to get home and being stranded? Remember going on that trip? Life's short.

I'm also surrounded by friends that say they wanna do stuff a regret not doing it. Although most have kids now, so they're unable to have the time nowadays.

To reiterate what you said,, there's about as many comments complaining about loneliness and how people forming bubbles and parasocial relationships with internet people and even weird AI relationships now. People act like it's the worse thing in the world to hang out. It only gets harder when you're older too.

Let me be clear. I don't waste time on people that never wanna hang out. If you wanna be home and are rude when I invite you out, I will very simply leave you alone. That's fine by me.

Parasocial relationships with internet people

Are you talking about those people who simp streamers or just normal internet pals? Because if we talk about normal people then you are soo wrong about it

[-] lobut@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago

I mean this, as per Google's definition (because I suck at it):

A parasocial relationship is a one-sided, one-sided connection where an individual develops a sense of intimacy and friendship with a public figure, like a celebrity or fictional character, who is unaware of their existence

I don't think Internet normal friends beats meeting friends in real life but frankly it's the only way some of us even get to have friendships nowadays. I still play games with friends in Poland and the UK despite being in Canada. I also think that it's a more important part of life now because kids "seemingly" play less in the streets and they seem to play Roblox, Minecraft, or Fortnite or whatever with friends online and as much as I hate giving kids too much screen time ... they're socializing with their friends and it's important to keep that going too.
