105. It's the "by thy friends art thou known" thing.

How they see the world, how they excuse or otherwise are fine with shitty behavior or anti-social leanings and preferences, what their general mindset is, and who they gravitate toward as far as potential candidates to support or align with. If their behavior and expressed beliefs expose them as troglodytes, well, then, that's THEIR bed that THEY'VE made, and it's THEIR problem (that it's suggested here that they have no intention of doing anything about it like maybe OPENING THEIR MINDS AND CHANGING SOME OF THEIR VIEWS), and it's just too damn bad for them if that means they can't get a date.

NO sympathy for wounds that are self-inflicted, or self-perpetuated.
