hmmmm... I don't know if this counts but I have a karen neighbor who I like to call Carrot bc her hair looks like a carrot to me and shes one of those "christian" karens, yk the ones who hate gay people and think "love thy neighbor" is conditional. Anyways, I have another neighbor who is really really cool and extremely self aware of his mentality because he has high functioning autism and some unknown mental illnesses. One day both are outside and he's making jokes about his autism because he got his final covid shot and she starts spouting completely seriously about conspiracy theories where the government puts trackers into the vaccine to watch us or something like that and he tries to talk with her for a minute but realizes the conversation is going in circles because she won't listen to any reasoning. He says "I don't want to argue so I'm just going to walk away" which to me seems extremely mature because he was self aware enough to walk away before getting angry/annoyed/upset, then my neighbor turns to me and starts talking bad about him saying hes so immature and its ridiculous that he would walk away when they weren't even arguing so I said something among the lines of "I'm going to do the same thing he did and walk away before this turns into an arguement too" but thats not all ppls, she goes "well of course you would take his side your a young person" like me being a teenager means I mindlessly follow other people? so I go "No i have my own opinions and my own feelings, me being younger has nothing to do with the fact that I agree with something he says or does" and then I walked away. Sorry if this was long.
