So let me see if I understand; a movie about Korean and Korean-adjacent pop stars who have existed throughout the ages to fend off spiritual/mythological beings, features Korean spirituality/mythological figures and symbolism.
You don’t say…

Depends on the charity/thrift store some states they have to/choose to hold it longer before they can put it out to make sure people aren’t trying to dump goods that were illicitly attained or don’t have the staff to process.

- Comment on My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined 2 months ago:
It may be something my brain ingested at some point in the past from somewhere else, but if so I don’t remember it.

I always get a lot of impressed looks when I pull out a severed hand that I use to hold the rail while I hold on to the wrist upper arm. I can tell they’re all jealous.
- Comment on My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined 2 months ago:
If you had the choice, would you rather the railing be greasy or exceptionally sticky?

Yep. Apparently I stuck those in some sort of super resilient long term storage.
- Comment on I Got This Right, Right? 2 months ago:
It’s also an easy misunderstanding to make for a journalist or online commentator because typically when somebody decries somebody “making something political” or “getting more political”, they mean in a way that they are not because to them, “their views aren’t political” even though they absolutely are.
- Comment on I Got This Right, Right? 2 months ago:
The article I saw said he was getting more “political“ recently, not more left-wing…

Aside from the feeding and mating; I always learned it was fight, flight, or freeze (fawn).

In words and actions he did so incredibly clearly.

When one group proclaims the sadness of tragedy of a great harm upon a member of an intolerant group and the intolerant group refuses or even celebrates that same sort of great harm against the other that normalizes the one sidedness of that for that society. Calls for reciprocity become decried as politicization

They’re not being bullied for their behavior, they are being bullied for their existence (unless you’re suggesting one support the bulling behavior). In our current environment there is no shortage of people reinforcing and welcoming the bullying behavior and decrying the existence of the bullied. If it was an issue of unfamiliarity you would have a point but that’s not the environment that exists and I’d prefer to make the bullied feel welcomed than the oppressor with what limited time and resources I have.
We all have choices to make, you seem to have chosen to make the oppressors and bullies feel more welcome with your time.
(Also, your link says that people who are ostracized by others tend to continue that cycle not that people who ostracized others were themselves victims of ostracization in the past. That’s swapping cause-and-effect, and doesn’t support your contention)

Imagine a scene where 2 new people come to your house for a party made up of people from many backgrounds, one is kind and the other is hateful and verbally abuses and bullies the one who is kind for something they have no choice over such that they leave your house. Then seeing this one of the other party members kicks the bully out of the house for them being massively rude. Now being massively rude and dehumanizing to others is an active choice one makes, that’s not a outgroup that one is in through any choice but their own. The party is still welcoming of all who preserve the welcoming environment of the party.
You’re arguing that the rest of the party should feel bad that the asshole was kicked out.

Exactly the opposite. We should have empathy, tolerance, and inclusiveness for all, unless people choose to exclude themselves from that collective. I’m saying those who only have parochial empathy shouldn’t expect to receive empathy from others they’ve already cut themselves off from, and it’s not something those they shut out to be shamed for that they experienced the repercussions of their actions.
- Comment on Posting for the "Now guys he was MURDERED! Don't celebrate!" Crowd 2 months ago:
Some people say empathy, tolerance, & inclusion are strictly moral values. However this misses that they are also a social contract lest we end up in the paradox of tolerance.
Kirk had none for those outside his in-group. Those outside his in-group owe him none in return.

True love is the greatest thing in the world—except for a nice MLT—mutton, lettuce, and tomato sandwich, where the mutton is nice and lean and the tomatoes are ripe
