Anyway, I think an assumption that all of society has suddenly become completely unforgiving is an exaggeration. Forgiveness is still a thing that a lot of people are capable of. Furthermore, the less known you are, the easier it will be to find new opportunities in an environment that hasn't heard of you or pre-judged you.
If anything, there are some of us who forgive too easily simply so we can go about our lives, but that's a different argument.
Sorry, but I wont spane into a cesspool of hateful people to backup a point. I wouldnt even know where to begin searching and dont want to find out.
I believe society to be cruel based on life experience and how Ive been treated for my own differences. It affects my opinion, which is probably why we differ. Im not trying to be rude or difficult and apologize if you are taking it that way.
