My take is different. I know someone who started going to therapy because their kids threatened no contact. They’re on medication now but the narcissism still persists. Now, they act enlightened and projects their shortcomings on to others by not so subtly encouraging them to watch self help vids that only validate their own feelings. They are basically going, “see? I’m better now. This video talks about letting the past stay in the past so we call all get along,” but now the subtext is that the others are the problem.
Yeah, I get that, but the guy just seems to be happy to share what he’s learned, and it’s kinda shitting on the fact that he’s trying to be helpful because he found help.
Look closer. He’s not sharing or offering. He’s just throwing it at people. He hit one of them in the head
He’s very self satisfied and sure he has the answers, but stunted as a person. He has the simplest shape missing, and he thinks everyone is just this one realization away from being him in his improved form
Interesting, didn’t read it quite the same way. Generally I do think it’s a warning to not try to apply the same solution to other problems, but the guy appears to have good intentions and so this feels to me like more of a gentle reminder rather than a “boo you suck for trying to help people”.
Ish? I get what you mean but I think the point is how newly saved want to spread their salvation to everyone else and missing that your solution is not others.
Or you are right, I dunno. Now the comic seems more depressing then fun
If he was shoving triangles down their throats then I’d be more on your side, but I see it as a person who got help and wants to share that help with other.
To me it looks like he’s throwing triangles around without actually caring about what kind of help the other people need. If he was just sharing and trying to be helpful, we wouldn’t see a triangle bouncing off his friend’s (?) head with many more scattered about. His intentions are probably good, but that doesn’t mean his type of help is wanted by them.
We could just be reading a lot into a silly comic though.
I’m not sure what this is trying to convey.
What helps you does not necessarily apply to others too
Just because some therapy works for you, doesn’t mean the same therapy will work for others.
