Sigh. That wasn't how I was trying to come off as. Also, I am easily able to come across as appealing to others, but quite frankly that only matters in the primaries. Political schemes aside, I am pretty sure I tried to come off as rational. Then again, y'all don't make it easier on me to come across as rational when you poke and prod.
So if I was coming off as irrational, that was not my intent.
Albeit if this last election wasn't an indication, that sort of thing may no longer matters anyways.
I do happen to come across a way I am not intending, quite often.
When I say "good at politics" I'm not talking about appealing to others, because quite frankly, that's not my goal here. When I say I am good at politics, I mean the ACTUAL politics themselves, not the joke of a popularity contest that our elections have become.
I.E. I am phenomenal at writing bills, and putting forth my set of goals towards making my country better for all.
THAT is what I mean by "good politics" along with knowing how much I have to get along with the senators and representatives.
I don't need to get along with the people at all. They'll hail me as the best regardless of my personality if I simply do good deeds.
Whilst I mock with criticism, there is no doubt in my mind that people will misinterpret as solely cynicism.
My cynicism isn't even condescending, but bitter. I still look at everyone the same: vicious murderers who if put in the right situation, would kill another person.
I seek not to get along with others, but force others to get a better life for themselves.
Besides, the way I'm setting up my election, is that it doesn't matter if people support me post-primary. I'll have the other candidates (whom I'm planting) put me into a position of power.
I only really need to appeal until then anyways.
A person who is a master of their craft can do so, hence why I said I am damn good at politics.
I know the rules and ins and outs of the craft rather well.
However, I hate to break it to ya, but if someone is going to question or insult my integrity, you should know better than to expect anything other than backlash. Which was my point.
You can't really call someone bad at something and then expect nothing in return. It is foolish to think otherwise.

Not really. I don't really get affected if someone happens to dislike me. If they don't like me then that's fine as long as they don't harass me or continue to look for trouble. You can't please everyone if they don't want to compromise with you. Though I have to admit if there's someone that's a good friend of mines that happen to dislike me for minor or big reasons it would scare me a lot.

Sometimes... That's why I'm kinda skeptical on messaging first. Because I don't wanna be a bother and sometimes I tend to bore them with my stupid antics

Nope. Have never cared what people thought of me in my whole life, and I doubt I'll care about that anytime soon. It's just not in my personality. I am fine with me the way I am. If someone doesn't like me, this is their prerogative. u wu

Everyone is scared of rejection, some more than others
I have self esteem problems, so I'm pretty scared of rejection and that people won't like me.
But I'm here anyway, I need to train my social skills.

I'm afraid. Sometimes. It's just something that I gradually have to accept and respect.
Not everyone is going to like me, and that's okay because I'm not going to like everyone. I might reject them too in my own way.
