    So aside from the absolute bullshit that is ‘hide who you are for stupid fuckers’ being a terrible way to live your life, my mind immediately jumps to a person’s voice, which can’t be masked on the fly, so that plan is going to fall apart a few seconds after they walk in the door, unless they have gone through extensive voice retraining…

    But circling back around, absolutely fuck hiding elements of yourself just because others are dumbasses. If we all did that, think of the dumbest motherfucker you have seen in Walmart, then give them all the power and respect by not engaging and rolling over like a bitch.

      There is “not hiding who you are” and “not putting yourself in danger for no good reason”. If you think you are really unsafe around some people, don’t provoke them just for the sake of being a martyr. I think self preservation comes first here.
