Just reading through the comments of my I HATE EMO KIDS post… why would I be writing for Emo The Blog if I were a hater? Really, are people that stupid? I don’t think most people even understood what I meant. I was talking about the stereotype. I hate the stereotype that people try to conform to, and yet so many people took it personally. It proved my point even further, anyone who took offense or disagreed with me, that post was directed at you. Anyone who agreed with me is either a hater themselves, or actually understood what I meant.

This is the most important part of that post:

“I don’t hate you, I don’t hate the way you dress, and I don’t hate the music you listen to. What I do hate is the stereotype you’ve helped create. I hate the way YOU have helped to give emo a bad name.”

Why did so many people take offense to being told the truth?

Other people don’t really care about YOU. Everyone is out for themselves.

This is what I meant by Equality is Fiction. Everyone talks about how we should all be equals, I disagree.

You strive to be different, yet complain when you’re treated differently. How is that supposed to work?

If you don’t want to be treated differently (taking the bad with the good), then don’t try to be different.

And here’s something important to consider: having a differing opinion is not the same as hating.
