So I have been having an absolutely fantastic, beautiful week, which has given me the clarity to think about some important things over the past few days. During that time, I had an experience that allowed me to prune the tree of who I am following, or even tolerating, on Nostr. It made me realize that some of y’all don’t actually know some important things about who I am. Probably one of my most defining characteristics is that I despise cruelty and bullying. Nothing disgusts me faster about a person than when they are cruel, except perhaps when they try to justify it. It’s pathetic. So I’m going to make this crystal clear for all y’all. It doesn’t matter if we are political allies, if you are a homesteading expert, if you’re a great artist or musician or cook, if you have nice and wise things to say about family or homeschooling, or even if you claim to be my sibling in Christ and “seek His kingdom first.” If you love cruelty; if you act like a predator against human beings, scenting out the weak and sick to destroy them further; if you tear down others to be “in” or make yourself feel important; if you cheer such bullshit on and support insulting the people pointing out the problem; and especially if you twist religion to justify your sin: We actually have nothing in common, and I want nothing at all to do with you, ever. Particularly if you believe yourself to be a Christian, you seriously need to reconsider your stance and turn to earnest prayer and study of Scripture. There is no justification for this attitude in Christ. Please out yourselves now so we can mute each other and move on with our lives. View quoted note →
