All of the violence and hatred that would have been present around you gets redirected somewhere else in the world. The more discord there was in a place before you arrived, the harder the redirection hits its new location. You occupy a bubble of peace but outside of it things get even worse. You always hear about this and see the consequences of it but you are never able to directly observe it because whenever you try, the discord gets redirected somewhere else.
You cursed me!
I especially (dis)like the fact that I may occupy a bubble of peace, but at the same time knowing things are getting worse.
You reduced me to either an obnoxious self-entitled prick, or a pathetic loser.
Thanks a lot. The world now hates me...
