Saw a TikTok about some woman asking why men have to disturb the peace of a Saturday or Sunday morning by mowing their lawn or using a leaf blower, and you would’ve thought she went on a bigoted rant by the comment section. Like damn she was just talking about how it would be nice to enjoy a peaceful morning and random commenters took it as a personal attack. Shit you not I truly believe some suburbanites would go to war over their lawn the way they treat it like a fortress to a castle.

Is this not extremely silly when you type it all out? Time is a circle and I feel like I’m a peasant under feudalism watching kings, nobles and knights protect their land like it’s under some type of threat

First of all, it’s TikTok. 99% of the people there are unable to detect sarcasm and satire and believe in every outrageous thing related to sex and relationship some random girl says on a podcast and get angry. The entire thing is meant to piss you off so you talk about it.

Second of all, real life people do not like waking up to the sound of a lawn mower no matter how burbbrained they are.

Third of all, social media in general have a habit of taking something innocuous and interpreting it in the worst possible way. People are raising their heart rate for no reason other than to feel something. It’s essentially self harm in another way.
