The Dialogue

*Nothing is fully explained*

  • So you're back here

Not for the same reasons

  • Sure, but that doesn't mean everything is ok

Yes, but I never mentioned that

  • Well you thought it, you're trying to beat your mind to the punch

I guess so, I figure its easier to put things down somewhere than to think them to the walls

  • Really?

My idea of "better" is whatever shows less of my issues to anyone who may know me

  • You do have an out though

That's still risking incorrect interpretation

  • It's always about interpretation with you

Of course it is, we've gotten into trouble for it before

  • Isn't the modern idea to simply be yourself regardless of what others think?

Yes, but they have no idea what they mean, they assume it to be normal stuff

  • Normal stuff?

Yes, things they understand like being bi or gay, maybe thinking the school system sucks

  • Those are some very boring ideas, you couldn't think of edgier ones?

Well I don't follow it really, just see it in passing

  • So what is it that they are afraid of then or whatever you meant before?

Well what I want to express isn't actually dangerous or anything, but interpretation can make it so

  • How?

I could say that ethics is "fake", I like to use extreme examples, then I promply get called a Nazi

  • Nazi?

Hitler is a pretty easy extreme to use to explain ideas regarding ethics

  • The point is?

They don't fully understand what i'm doing, that its an example for example's sake

  • So they don't understand the process or the result

Pretty much, people think they understand but they don't

  • So just say they don't understand

Well the issue is they also don't like it if they don't understand someone

  • Inherently?

No, just when they interpret them to be bad or whatever

  • Interesting, but why come back here to this website/account?

Because it represents anonimity, even if it is fragile

  • How is it fragile? It isn't even your name

It's a poetry website, how good can their security possibly be?

  • I guess so. So why the attempt to have one sentence explanations?

It's easier to read, and I think it will help me be brief, could've gone on and on on things

  • But isn't being brief the problem? Not fully explaining things?

Well I don't mind explaining things, but this isn't "me" so I get to not care

  • Maybe just add a warning sign at the top like you normally do with people

Sure

  • Does that mean you expect someone to read this?

No, but I've been forced to expect everything I can conceive of in life so why not
