    Then what point are you even trying to make? What is it you’re “trying to achieve”? Why even leave your original comment

    Maybe… you should say that to your friend, instead of using your shared religious beliefs that convince them to stay in a shitty relationship…?

    The only person wading into attack on this thread is you, and although multiple people have pointed that out you’ve consistently relied on DARVO to accuse them of attacking you, when you’re the one attacking OP and the concept of Tarot in the first place.

    You’re calling it a religious practice based on your own set of definitions, while simultaneously carving out exceptions for your own quasi-religious practice. This indicates that you’re clearly either incapable or unwilling to hear the perspectives of others and what their interests mean to them, and you have this exclusivist mentality where only you can be right.

    You’re a fucking narcissist. Anton LaVey would be proud 👏👏

      I haven’t attacked tarot or OP, what?? Calling it a religious practice isn’t an attack, and my initial comment was criticizing the behavior of someone using tarot to avoid being direct with their friend, it in no way criticized tarot directly.

      The only person wading into attack on this thread is you, and although multiple people have pointed that out you’ve consistently relied on DARVO

      I’m sorry, can you provide a single example of someone else doing that? At this point the only person I’ve seen even accuse me of attacking anyone is you.

        The entire humor of the post is about OP’s directness, so I don’t know what you’re on about.

        And since you’re still intent on ignoring the realities of the conversation in this thread, and twisting everything to make yourself sound like a victim, I’m done with you.

          So what, you were just trying to gaslight me with other people accusing me of DARVO…?

          I welcome you being done with this conversation, but jeeze, trying to tell me what my motivations are instead of listening to me is a pretty shitty thing to do. Not sure how else to describe it besides “you misinterpreted an attacked me”.

              Not really. A good portion of DARVO requries a rejection of evidence - I’ve asked you for evidence and you’ve refused to give it to me. You’ve also blatantly lied about other interactions in this thread, and when I accused you of being a jerk, you started attacking me: calling me a narcissist, implying I should delete my comment, saying I lack self awareness, etc. Even your initial interaction was attempting to weaponize my admission of confusion as somehow a negative thing - shaming me for admitting I was confused by saying it’s okay for me to admit I’m confused, which is the thing I had just done.

              You’re even asserting that by calling Tarot religious or spirtual - and I hate to point this out, but this is in the context of a meme posted to an occult community so it’s not exactly unfair of me to make the association - I’m somehow attacking it and the person that posted it, instead of criticizing the implied behavior of the hypothetical person in the meme. And to be clear, I’ve never made the claim that Tarot is inherently spiritual - elsewhere in this thread I’ve made that explicitly clear, as well as in my replies to you. That it is a religious or spiritual practice does not make the claim that it is always a religious practice.

              You’ve come into this combative and accusatory, and are continuing to exemplify the behavior you are accusing me of.

                I haven’t refused to give you evidence. It’s all over the thread, and you refuse to see it. Just because you’re being dishonest by denying other interactions that happened in this thread that everyone else can clearly see, doesn’t make me a liar for pointing them out. Get over your victim complex.

                I thought you said you were done with this conversation? Apparently that wasn’t true, but I am.

                  I made a specific request for you to support your claim, which you didn’t do. There are no other accusations in this thread about me attacking them, DARVO or not, for me or anyone else to clearly see - you’re lying, and you’re once again attempting to gaslight me about that fact.

                  Also I’ve never said I was done with this conversation, I said I welcome you being done with it. You were the one that was apparently wrong, but you’re trying to tell me that was actually me, being incorrect. That’s gaslighting, dude. Again.

                  You’re explicitly engaging in the behavior you’re accusing me of, and refuse to engage with me when I explain how you’ve misunderstood me, choosing instead to repeatedly attack my character and lie to me instead of engage in good faith. It’s disgusting you’re still trying this.
