What's a harsh truth that humans refuse to accept?

"People have said a lot of horrible things about you behind your back."
Pfft, not my problem.

When you're at the point when these "harsh" truths seem lukewarm at best

[The_Natalist]

Anyone can do terrible things, of any race, sex, creed, ideology, or religion (or lack thereof).

[TrashPandaPirate]

On the point of "some people shouldnt have kids"

Ive alway stood by the quote "all kids deserve parents, but not all parents deserve kids"

[Simkets]

If your friend talks with you about their other friends behind their back, they are most likely doing the same to you

Common sense isn't common.
Our lives are so insignificant in the grand scheme of the Universe.

[Lizathla]

People who are nice are taken advantage of, unless they put limits on how nice they are and with who.

the world needs to learn how badly trauma that is passed through the generations hurts. Most people can remember a time they were yelled at or abused in some way, shape, or form, especially at a young age. Oftentimes, the abuser forgets. But for the kid, that is going to stick with them forever. Sometimes, they will keep passing that trauma down until someone tries to break the chain.

You can't complain about how much you hate a person because of something they did to you, do that exact thing to someone else, then wonder why they don't want to see or talk to you.

"This was a formative experience of my life. For you it was just Tuesday."

"The axe forgets but the tree remembers."

That Sometimes there’s no lesson to be learned. Sometimes shit’s just fucked up and the only thing you can do, because you didn’t do anything fucking wrong, is get the fuck back up and do the exact same thing all over again, knowing that there was nothing to learn.

This was my favorite Ashton quote in critical role

[bobowon]

Sadly not only does being a good person not always correlate with having a good life, if you are truly a good person and don't partake in any kind of exploitative actions or industries you'll probably have a pretty bad life

[DevLunar]

I know kids are just shitty and stupid but my middle school history/science teacher had so many students make fun of her and call her the worst teacher. She gave a kind of mom vibe and was always full of excitement and energy when teaching. They probably saw her as "cringe" but I saw it as endearing that she genuinely tried her best to be upbeat and entertaining. With all the bad teachers I've had before I don't understand why these kids would make fun of someone who was genuinely kind and caring with a little eccentric but charming and bright personality.

[mbryson]

The planet has more than enough people.

[raincandy]

That humans are just another species of animals. Seriously, people legitimately think that humans aren't animals

[bioalkemisti]

There can't always be someone better than you. Someone has to be the best.

[whisperingshadowXI]

Sometimes terrible things happen and it's not really anyone's fault. Far too many people refuse to believe that and are always looking for a conspiracy theory or supernatural force to explain it.

[gm]

The most basic truth, one day we are going to die. And generally, we don't know when that is going to happen.

[Purple_Sloth]

We want others to be happy and succeed, but not more than ourselves.

[dandypoots]

My bro once told me that one hundred people could hate your guts but so long as you got that one person that supports you those one hundred don't matter.

That one person is you.

Love yourself and love what you have and others will find their way to you eventually. You'll be ok.

[chawkichalladia]

the without screaming really hits home. I have a very loud voice, and I get the "why you yelling a lot" even though I'm just talking.
