You may think "But I could go to those people and say 'Why are you being |
||||||
|
toxic?' or 'Why are you attacking me?' or even just tell them it's not nice to |
||||||
|
say such things. It would help." |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
I don't believe that's the case. |

In the case of toxic people, they just want to see the place burn so they can |
||||||
|
be the hero that saves the day. Microaggressors just want to make your feel |
||||||
|
down 'cause so they could feel superior to you. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
And I don't think they can be easily fixable. That's their modus operandi and |
||||||
|
they will keep doing it so 'cause that's the only way they can see to |
||||||
|
"improve" themselves -- even if there is no real improvement, they are just |
||||||
|
letting everything down so they seem better than the others. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
On the other hand, if you keep [paying attention to the way people react to |
||||||
|
you](/books/things-i-learnt/watch-reactions), you may notice that you may be |
||||||
|
doing this to others. And now the ball is in your park: Do you want to be a |
||||||
|
better person or not? |
