It’s a struggle. I try to do this with my union hall. Try and get out there and make connections with people. It comes a little easier when you’re thrusted into social interactions ,because of your children, as a parent.
connections with people aren’t very enjoyable when they are shitting on you and harassing you for your identity not being ‘progressive’ enough. a lot easier to dissociation and enjoy your life on your own without constant harassment for things beyond your control, like being a man.
I’ve been known to talk ideology at gatherings (I assume that’s what you meant by progressive). Maybe that’s why I don’t get invited to many parties lol.
My only point being that you have to show up to those gatherings anyway. It’s still a chance for valuable human connection, in my opinion. The only thing you can control is the way you react to that harassment.

It’s so much easier to just disassociate.
easier, or more rewarding?

yeah and for a man the best way to react is to remove yourself from the community.
Did you put effort into creating that mass shooter aura or does it just come naturally?
