He got more offended after I apologized for offending him

[Ohioboy]

Had a weird conversation with a Magat. During the conversation I said something that upset him. So, I apologized that I had "offended" him.
He spent the next ten minutes angerly insisting that he never gets "offended". It was very strange. He wanted me to know he wasn't like the "Liberals" who get "offended by everything". It was like I had called him a sow boy or something. He totally equated being offended with being weak.
Very strange how some people think.

[Think. Again.]

1. They don't have the ability to reason things out...

...or they wouldn't be magats in the first place.

[Skittles]

2. LOL!!!!

just RECENTLY, MAGAts have been offended by: vaccines, science, CRT, FACTS, trans folk, WOKE, immigrants, BOOKS, etc...........

[Seinan Sensei]

8. That's right

Living in the real world requires resilience. Maturity allows for the possibility that someone else could be right. Or that both people could be right.
Remember the allegory of the blind men and the elephant?
Resilience allows one to bend. Rigidly causes one to break.
(PS - this very concept will cause MAGAts’ heads to explode)

3. Next time say 'I'm sorry I hurt your feelings'

And that idiot will really blow a gasket

[FuzzyDicePHL]

7. My go-to is...

..."I didn't mean to trigger you."

[unblock]

24. Even better -- sorry I hurt your fee-fees.

[rampartd]

4. "oh, i'm sorry again.

but when you act like a snowflake......."

fuck these people

[Tetrachloride]

5. neither viewpoint is without merit in my view

therefore i believe the accurate nuance is not yet found. i believe the answer is not inherently related to politics

each view had a motivation that was strong enough to emerge from silence to conversation.

i would ask what is the motivation

[Paladin]

12. If they're Magats, fuck 'em.

End of story.

[Emile]

6. Weird

9. I think you meant "soy boy."

It's one of their favorite pejoratives when it comes to liberal men, frequently followed up with the word "cuck." (Oh, the irony in that one!) Because, supposedly, liberal men eat a lot of soy products, which allegedly feminizes them , so therefore they are weak. This is the kind of shit guys like Joe Rogan have been feeding to them for years.

It sounds to me like this guy was having reality dawn on him, and he was trying to rationalize his way out of it. He's in for a really rude awakening...

[True Blue American]

14. No, they just love to argue!🫠🫤😜

[True Blue American]

15. Soy?

Thank goodness no one likes the stuff in my family!
Ohio grows a lot but they ship it to China and empty auto trains.

[JI7]

34. The guys they call soy boy are often attractive

or what many women find attractive. When these "soy boys" are with an attractive women they will make comments about whether they share their outfits or something else stupid.

They have no idea how much of a turnoff the caveman act is. Even if you remove any political views from everything. The "tough" guy just comes off as insecure and like a buffoon.

[GoCubsGo]

38. Yeah, I mostly see them use it on men who don't condone violence.

Regardless of their age or what they look like. It's the whole "caveman" thing. But, in the media I tend to visit, the ones with known liberal views seem to get "soy boy" hurled at them the most--even the ones who are middle-aged, and married with children. It's really pathetic, if you ask me. Bunch of Joe Rogan wannabes, and he's one of the biggest buffoons of all.

10. MAGAts are in the

professional victim mode as promoted by Russian propaganda on Pox News.

[3Hotdogs]

11. Maggot? Think?

When did anyone ever try to connect the two?

[True Blue American]

13. I have those conversations, especially when I ask, " Why are we arguing.?"

Then have to listen to 5 minutes being told,” we are not arguing while I listen to the same story over again why we are not arguing!

[Attilatheblond]

23. They may see themselves as warriors or fierce wolves

But they behave like ungulates with their constant ruminating to occupy their minds instead of doing any independent critical thinking. Oh, and they certainly engage in herd prey animal behavior. Do NOT stand nearby when their herd panics and mindlessly stampedes. They always sense danger, perhaps rightly, but never stop to actually look to the real source of the threats to their well being. Example: November 6, 2024.

[Kaleva]

16. So, what was the purpose of the conversation?

[Scrivener7]

17. Good to know. I'll toss in, "I can see I have triggered you and that was not my intent"

to all my conversations with magats from now on.

[yardwork]

26. That would be hilarious!

[Scrivener7]

37. I'm kind of looking forward to it.

[AllaN01Bear]

18. dont you just love the way they backpedal and go sputter sputt sputt?

[Crunchy Frog]

19. You should have apologized for triggering him.

[Meadowoak]

29. I would only say, " you look triggered". But never apologize, ever.

If you apologize, which is something they would NEVER do, they think they won.

[bif]

20. What a sad existence it must be

To go through life like that.

[bif]

21. Of as we used to say in high school...

"Take a lude and lighten up!"

[Attilatheblond]

22. So, their disassociation with reality extends to being unaware of their own feelings, reactions, and actions?

Figures.

[yardwork]

25. It's all about the fear of weakness.

[Meadowoak]

30. I never back down to them, ever, and they always run like a scared little girl.

[wolfie001]

27. Butthurt snow-flakery is the technical term for that behavior

[magicarpet]

28. Alpha macho MAGA Meatheads don't get offended,...

.... they seek retribution and totally vanquish and humiliate their enemies then wipe them off the face of the earth.

[Meadowoak]

31. I offend the shit out of them, every chance I get. And when they see that

You won't back down, they run like a little bitch, it's delightful to see a big macho asshole run like a little girl.

[Meadowoak]

32. Even better when there's a crowd of people, laughing at them.

[JI7]

33. This is why I say we need to learn to not react or let them get to us

and we can have fun going after them in "soft" ways like you did.

Never try to debate them. Just come across as being personally happy and not letting them get to you and that will alsoi set them off.

[usonian]

35. Projection. "He that smelt it dealt it"

More politely, " Every accusation is a confession"

Cult. Ignore. They are living in a Matrix programmed by anarchitects.

They may hit a wall, as when Canada defeats the US and they are forced to eat back bacon and speak French.

36. Tell him to go fuck himself after he pries his lips from Trump's festering asshole

That won't offend him either.
