Can you be hurt being called names?

[justinacolmena]

And if you are hurt when someone calls you a bad name, does this mean you believe the name is true?

Puts you in bad mood to be called names, ruins the productivity of your workday. Not to mention dealing with the dirty tricks, pranks, and practical jokes played by name-callers, and repairing the repeated sabotage and vandalism to your car wherever it's parked while you are at work.

To me, it may depend on why the name was given to you.

God bless you always!!!

P.S. Sometimes it good to just be glad that anyone even pays any attention to you in the first place.

Well that sort of goes beyond mere name-calling. Other measures may be called for.

Of course not.

Some names are so toxic that assault and murder would be justified if you dare to utter them. Life in a progressive society.

Not without your own consent.

You are a piece of shit.

Oh come on even if you were joking (which I believe you were) this was a bit uncalled for.

Only if you are sensitive enough to let it.

Do you have any more intellectually engaging questions? That's childish stuff.

The rabbit hole goes a little deeper when we get into racial names like the n word or honky. What's your opinion on these words? Should people be hurt by these names, or are they just words?

Like a bloody attorney to revoke your rights and refer you to mental health counseling and therapy with medication to deal with your paranoid delusions from your co-workers' abuse of marijuana. Maybe even revoke your driver's license if you can't keep your brakes in good working order without professional assistance.

Go away with your silly questions.
You're waffling garbage.

Lol, you dropped the question like a hot potato when race was applied.

No ---- I think the problem at least for me is that they are expressing implacable hostility, announcing they are enemies. And that's a problem for anyone. If they do it with foul cursing it means they are dangerous losers, the great unwashed, and I throw them away. Can't keep abusers around. It's not safe, and there is no point: they have no redeeming features.

Honky doesn't matter to any white person, does it? It sort of ----- doesn't connect. Does anyone care?

Since they call each other n@##$%&, clearly that carry-on they do is just to put us down; I don't take any interest in it. It's important not to let blacks control our speech or topics.

You're right. I. Not a racist but I can see you are. Most republicans are.
