/biz/ - Business & Finance

If you felt hurt when you assumed I called you pretentious, you have a small taste of what I had to endure. Imagine being ridiculed, bullied, and demonized, for half a year by someone you used to trust with leadership weight, against your best self-censoring efforts to protect them from themselves, merely because they somehow persuaded themselves they had to utterly break you in order to inflate their pride. The motive was so disproportionate, it required me a long time to comprehend and accommodate. I couldn't make sense of it. If I despised them I would've simply informed relevant community positions the full graph of their posting history. I've shown myself incredibly patient, in spite of the everlasting harassment and promotion of terrifying antagonizing culture. Their daunting revenge has pressured me into sharing tangential metaphysical views, even though I've never desired being extroverted, crushing my dreams of creative endeavors, exposing me to severe chronic stress, and secluding me from all heartfelt relationships. Unfortunately, it will necessitate years for them to integrate and understand my perspective. My biggest mistakes were to remain and believe they were ever actually interested in mutual compassion. Ironically, I was the only one who ended up apologizing. I'm leaving digital finance forever.
