The proper response today is not to be a self-righteous anarchist asshole, which I admit I’ve probably been on many occasions.

Don't get down on yourself too hard, we've all been there! I mean, I know I have.
I agree with this entire post, we are in the same "shit, I guess I could've been a bit nicer about it" boat. Haha I'm trying to do better.
Thanks for sharing this, @larkenrose! Have an awesome day.
