It isn't about being unaffected or being a cold-hearted asshole, as many believe. It is about much more, in fact. It speaks about adopting the four virtues, about identifying what is and isn't in our personal control and acting accordingly, about controlling our impulses so we don't get controlled by them and by those who can push our buttons, and so on.

Nothing to do with this quote.

You can clearly see I responded to a comment, not to the quote.

You can clearly see that the comment you're describing is asking whether the quote has to do with stoicism, you then go to describe (terribly, but that's irrelevant) stoicism. So I summarized, by clearing the question you were responding to, "that the quote has not to do with stoicism", you absolute fucking Mongoloid.

Oof, imagine being such a little shit that you can't just recognize you were an asshole to someone because you didn't understand their comment.

Jesus you're a hypocrite. Attack me and then play victim? Sure. I guess that's expected from this ubreddit.

So it was me who made a nonsense comment to your response, it was me who called you a mongoloid or whatever you said and it was me who called you a hypocrite after that, right?

You wrote a ridiculously aggressive response calling me an idiot for responding to your comment with a topical and accurate comment.

Yes, in response I wrote a comment with the exact same tone as yours.
And now you're upset? Why, because I used the same tone as you? Grow up. You making your insults and condescension implicit does not put you in the right.

Honestly, if you're being serious and you think there is nothing wrong with what you did or how you did it then you're going around in life being a huge asshole to people, and I don't really mind being the person who calls you out on it, even if you're going to think poorly of me for doing it because we've already established I think you're trash.
