When I play 4X games, I don’t like to trade with the other empires and choose one of those “I give you ten money for five turns” deals. I’d rather give 50 money now. I think that’s a common, natural, and healthy reaction. Humans don’t like putting in ongoing effort to something. They want to fix the problem or accomplish the goal now. Get it all over with in one go, so they aren’t drained later on. It’s a good emotional reaction.
But sometimes that’s not possible. My problem getting along with people is a tough problem. You wanted to solve it. You wanted to do all the work in one go and good my life. But it’s not always that easy. Sometimes the answer to these problems has to be ongoing effort to mitigate one’s own biases. It’s a displeasing thought. It sucks. I’ve been putting in ongoing effort for years and years. I did it. The idea that other people need to do that too? That society isn’t perfect? That your own judgement isn’t perfect? That you have to put in effort to not hate the way a pwNPD talks? Scary thought. Terrifying.
