  I’m upset that you’re upset.

  I get that this is a joke, but there’s a good point there too: I don’t give apologies because they were demanded, if give them because I can see that they’d help improve the situation.

    But improvement is subjective; what if it does improve @spankmonkey@lemmy.world’s situation?

      Then I’ll do it. If it doesn’t cost me too much. I can’t see someone else’s perspective really, but I can at least be empathetic…
