Comment on How do you combat boredom?

  I don’t think they were calling you “prejudiced” as it were, they were just outlining that judging whether something counts as a “real” hobby or just succumbing to boredom is flavoured a bit by our own views and opinions :)

    But they did, I made a friendly comment, I was even self-deprecating about it, mostly to be funny, and they accused me of having prejudices. I don’t take well to being called prejudiced, I’m not. Then they randomly brought up racism, that was a weird exchange.

      I totally see that your comment was friendly and there wasn’t any ill will, and I can definitely understand reading their comment as a bit accusatory - but the word “prejudice” isn’t the same as how I think we’re viewing being “prejudiced”.

      I don’t think they were intending to be hostile, is all I’m saying. I think it’s just a case of crossed wires tbh - but I hope you’re well and have a good day! ✌️
