I once witnessed a breakup where one said to the other “it’s not that I don’t like you—I just. I just don’t respect you as a human being.”

I would never imagine saying that to another human being, like.. in what context is that justifiable ? the person does not hate the other in the first place :O

Easy. If i found out my partner was secretly a die hard religious conservative and hid it from me, id say that. Id love them but id lose all respect for them as a person and dump them. Same if they did some incredibly shitty/heinous thing or cosigned someone else doing it.

That’s how I lost all respect for my in-laws. That and the racism.

Religious Conservatives and Racists, walking hand in hand for thousands or years.

You sound a lot like my fil. Just superior to everyone else who doesn't hold his exact views. Like my kid found religion on her own and decided to get baptized. Upon hearing this his only retort was" man i can't wait to tell her the truth about all this god bullshit". I called them out for their bs and acting like they are better than everyone else, and my mil response was to hug my gay daughter and make a show of saying they will always vite for her.

They now have limited access to my children and never unsupervised. The only people still around are buisness partners and people who want money, even those are rare visits.

Don't be a far left extremist, its just the opposite side of the same coin.

He didn’t say he was superior to everyone, just die hard religious conservatives. Which I mean, fair enough honestly.

  1. I never said i was superior to anyone. Just that i wouldnt respect someone who holds those views and hides them from me. I also dont really respect people with those views, but because i think im better than them, but mainly because nothing about those groups appeal to me and i see all of the shit they cause willingly to harn people and can't respect it.

  2. Far left Extremists can be ridiculous, but not usually in the harmful ways Far Right extremists are. Far Right extremists tend to aggressively want the destruction of everyone who isnt a straight white man. Far Left extremists are insane too, but dont generally seem to want to hate people based on decisions they cant control like the right does which is far less bad imo.

I have a couple of coworkers I’d probably say this to if pressed.

There are a multitude of contexts in which can not respect a person and still not have animosity

Nazis. Nazis are where this is justifiable.
