i think it’s very odd that really basic “some people have different cultures and we should respect differences” is lost on so many people online, particularly when we’re talking about the most inoffensive, innocuous stuff imaginable. i keep seeing fights online about whether americans are being creepy and invasive for smiling at strangers regularly or whether eastern europeans are being rude and standoffish for not smiling at strangers. neither is true!!!!! people’s cultures are just different that’s literally it!!! people have different norms and cultures and expectations and that’s completely fine! what are you going on about?????
they are not being weird and invasive, they are being kind and respectful by the standards of their culture. just as you are being kind and respectful but the standards of your culture by leaving people alone. neither are wrong. this is elementary school stuff jesus christ. like how are you gonna say ‘this is true’ to my post and then miss the entire point of it. what part do you even think is true then.
How do I tell my friend who recommended persona 3 portable that the way the characters summon their personas makes me uncomfortable because of my own pasy s*icidal ideation
