I can't really comment on the rest, but a lot of being controversial is less what your opinions are and more how you express them. Two people with the exact same opinion can be received very differently.

Also, one thing that can help you be less hateful about victims is to realize that pain is not relative to others' experiences. I didn't suddenly not experience X just because that person over there experienced Y.

Oh I'm not saying people don't play a victim to manipulate others. But telling somebody who is upset "others have it worse" just contributes to hatred over something that ultimately you can't control and that ultimately should be inconsequential to your life. In other words, if you let go of your need to determine if people's feelings are somehow objectively justified, you can emotionally disengage to the point that you do not feel hatred for them but also do not feel emotionally invested in having to help them.

We are all unique creatures that all have unique opinions and everyone's thoughts matters.

This goes for American/Canadian Elitists.

But don't try to stifle freedom of speech. Everyone is entitled to their opinion; regardless if you think they are right/wrong. Censorship is much a solution as closing your ears and shouting La-La-La over and over.

* I hate people that are close minded.
* I hate people who play the victim role when there are ACTUAL victims of more serious shit out there. People recently have gotten a sort of first world problem syndrome.

Understanding that this a vent thread, I'm going to make this post anyway:

We are all unique creatures that all have unique opinions and everyone's thoughts matters.

I think is not true. Yes we all have opinions. Few people have unique opinions and not everybody's thoughts matter at every time. I think this might be part of why people call you controversial. You are strongly opinionated, which isn't positive or negative, but you occasionally speak your opinion when it isn't necessary or is irrelevant.

This goes for American/Canadian Elitists.

Is this actually a thing? I've only ever seen people defend Canada from Americans, never saying Canada is the best country.

But don't try to stifle freedom of speech. Everyone is entitled to their opinion; regardless if you think they are right/wrong. Censorship is much a solution as closing your ears and shouting La-La-La over and over.

I agree with what serial said. I agree with this statement except I think you are missing part of it. EVERYONE is entitled to their opinion. That means, yes, you are entitled to your opinion, but if I disagree or get angry, I am entitled to tell you "stfu your opinion sucks", if that happens to be my opinion.

* I hate people that are close minded.
* I hate people who play the victim role when there are ACTUAL victims of more serious shit out there. People recently have gotten a sort of first world problem syndrome.

I have to say, this bothers me, and you are wrong. There's no arguing about it. What you said is very close minded. If somebody gets raped and has trauma from that, you can't go tell them to suck it up because at least you have food on the table. As somebody who travels, everybody, everywhere in the world, has different problems that all lead to the same mental anguish.

You don't get to live anybody else's life. That means that you don't know what they are going through. Attempting to cut their problems short will only serve to damage them more and reflect poorly on yourself. Don't confuse some people playing the victim role with anything else.

Most of us have been through enough shitty things to tell you that you will be a victim of circumstances at some point in life. Whether you actually play the role of the victim or get up and do something about the situation is 2 different things.

You messed up some quotes there and I'm super confused.

Robot you talk to much
