This is especially targeted to those who think they are fulfilling a moral crusade by commenting targeted insults to “roasties” online.
I have come to realise that the human mental processes of “feeling insulted” and “taking offence” are less about having your own insecurities or flaws pointed out to you, and more about whether or not you feel inferior to the person doing the pointing.
Consider it this way, whatever you consider to be your greatest physical weakness; be it manletism, nosecelism being bald or having a recessed chin. You must imagine receiving a targeted insult from an individual (worse off than you) geared towards your specific weakness, does it hurt as much being called a midget by someone even shorter than you? Does it hurt as much being called beak nose by someone with an even bigger and beakier nose than you? No, not in the slightest, in fact what it does is provoke a feeling of amusement because you know that the person hurling the insult has to deal with the draw-backs of said ailment to a
worse extent than you.
It’s interesting because just because the person throwing the insult may have it even worse than you, it doesn’t render their insult less true. In theory you should be equally offended, because we believe what causes offense in us is having our own flaws mocked, pointed out and called attention to. When in reality what causes offense and hurt is the feeling of enferiority we feel in our comparative standing to the subject who’s insulting us. In other words - mogging.
This is because we already know what our biggest flaws are, and how they negatively impact our lives. We are not offended by having what we already know pointed out, but rather we are hurt by having someone openly flex their superiority over us. It is very rare that someone points out a flaw you were previously unaware of, what hurts is the sentiment of inferiority one experiences in comparison to the one throwing the insult.
I am reminded of a moment at school when the school bully (chubby himself) was tormenting a fat kid, who was unsuccessfully attempting to defend himself. This went on for 5 minutes until the class Stacy stepped in and agreed with the fat kid about the bully being fat. He instantly went red in the face and was totally lost for words, it was a glorious example of instant karma and taught me that people not words are what have the power to provoke offence and insecurity.
It’s for this reason there is no comeback to Chad when he bullies you for having a big nose in high school, you cannot hurt him with anything you say because he mogs you in every department.
A diagnosed midget cannot hurt a manlet by calling him short. An incel cannot hurt a Chad by calling him anything. The same goes for a Stacy, especially because women are judged on different criteria to men, they do not have to be physically strong or emotionally stoic, so you cannot call a woman a pussy or a cry-baby, but they can still call you one. If you are insulting “roasties” online then they are by and large impervious to your insults, they will assume their insulter to be a crusty loser who they lifemog in every regard and this will provide them with amusement, not provoke offence.
