I am so confused right know :/
I always percieved myself as quite misanthropic even prior to the whole war inconvenience . I perceive most of the humans around me as vulgar and simple-minded, having primitive desires and not willing to go any further than where they already are. It's always problematic for me to communicate with people IRL especially strangers, I see it as a risk not worth taking and actively avoid it whenever possible
But I don't know between two of us who is more misanthropic nor do I care really. I was making a joke and I don't know who took it a little too seriously. Truth be told, I personally know at least one guy, one of my university mates, who is even more closed-off and even more unlikely to begin a conversation than I am
