insensitive to sensitivity.

I will never understand how calling someone "sensitive" is an insult.

Like, I get that sometimes people who are prone to being overly sensitive can make poor choices or lack the ability to rationalize certain situations. This type of behavior I could see as counterproductive. So I shall give you that. Being excessive in any trait has its own set of issues like being overly logical can be perceived as cold, critical and distant. Both have their own struggles.

But showing compassion to someone, being an empathetic person.., having an abundance of emotional intelligence? WHY is that an insult? Why is this something to chastise someone about? WHY do people always use being "sensitive" as a weapon toward people who are apathetic or concerned about social issues and the welfare of others???

Isn't that half the issue??? We are all trying to push through terrible childhoods, unfortunate circumstances, looming anxiety and depression because we feel like the world and the people in it are impervious to perceiving our hurt and non apathetic to the fact that we are all hurting? Isn't this the cause for like 99.9% of social issues?? Think about it. Very strange??

From the words of Mick Jenkins, "*Spread love*."
Spread compassion.
understanding,
and empathize.

Peace and love.
