Yeah I see how slaves would be angry and that's justified. That's not what I was really getting at here though. Was thinking about how miserable people will sometimes project their unhappiness onto other people when they really don't deserve it. I don't think people have the right to insult others voicing concern just because they think that person is somehow controlling them. Its like an anti-vax person getting all angry and mean when someone says they should get the vaccine. They don't wanna be controlled. They probably feel lack of control in their lives in general and cling to something stupid like not taking the vaccine as an important statement of their personal liberty. Just an example

I'm going to add more because I love exploring this type of psychological stuff, in part because I am in a constant battle with my own emotions. Clinical depression, extreme social anxiety, rage issues etc.

Talking about this stuff and thinking about it can cause you to assess yourself better. Most people don't want to think about it too much. It is too painful for some people I think.

You criticizing your parents is pointing out their flaws and forcing them to think about their own miserable situation. That is the more likely reason that your father insults you, because he probably takes what you said as an insult to him. It is a slight fight or flight response due to his own fears.

Also, if your father tells you he doesn't want to talk about something and you keep harping on him, he is going to get annoyed and feel threatened. I think most of use can sympathize with this.

I am not a psychiatrist btw, so take what I say with a grain of salt. I have read quite a bit about psychology and some is just common sense, but I am not an expert by any means.

Yeah I agree about him taking it as an insult.. I think its some kind of knee jerk reaction. He does continously do it though...so instead of being an asshole that nobody wants to be around...he should do some self reflection and work on himself. I'm not perfect at all but at least I try to fix things. Its selfish to just act whatever way you want...not caring about the consequences to your health or to others and then bitch(and refuse to think about it) when someone points it out that you should change. I don't harp on things, I do come from a place of concern.
