Acceptance is a form of resignation and defeat. Perhaps personality types that differ from your own can benefit from the daily reminder that this is not normal and that millions refuse to normalize it. Get annoyed at the inhumane lawlessness, not people's methods of rejecting it. You are not the only one who is weary.
