Nope it's me. I'm just putting in effort. I usually prefer the dumb act, it's my defense against people I don't know, but this is getting ridiculous
So you admit that your 'playing dumb' is just yet more manipulation from you?
Good. To. Know.Manipulation towards what? Literally everything is manipulative as you have said, and what matters is the type of manipulation. I try to dumb it down for idiots I don't fucking know because that's like putting all your weapons on the front lawn for them to see before they attack you. Everyone has a face with people they don't know, my only intention is to protect myself
So you see no problems with playing dumber than you actually are to control people into doing as you'd desire?
