Driving off someone from being online, as a troll, because it gives you a thrill.
This is an awfully specific flex, but it is a flex nonetheless, that people do feel to boast about. Because it’s just another form of a power-trip. Congratulations, you’ve driven away someone who could’ve been a contributory member of a community to make yourself feel better by orchestrating lies, performing witch hunts and huddling with your troll buddies in ways to figure out how to process this.
There’s nothing prideful about this to flex over.
Proud of the conditions of your birth. It’s a subtle distinction, but imo the more reasonable emotion is thankfulness.
Thankful to be white? Sounds sus
Agreed, I don’t like the sound of that. It implies there’s something preferable about lacking melamine.
You can be thankful to be born to a loving family where you don’t have to struggle for respect.
And hopefully it motivates you to spread that privilege to people who don’t get to have that as easily as you do.
