Loosely held belief:

All negativity and aggression in the world (from acts of war to mean tweets) comes from insecurity (lack of confidence in one’s own abilities or lack of stable source of food/shelter).

Thoughts?

As someone feeling profoundly negative and somewhat aggressive, I can promise it’s not insecurity. 

I think “insecurity” and “jealousy” are often tropes used to invalidate very valid thoughts and feelings.

Thanks because I’m definitely in a mood lately 😂

You said loosly held so my angst isn’t directed at you. I just wanted to take the opportunity to speak on it because there is a pattern of euphemisms and tone policing often used to shut people down and dismiss them. I’ve always seen the jealousy/insecurity answer to be lacking important context in a similar way 

It’s not great. It makes some people appear smug in their certainty while totally missing points that benefit many, the smug included 

Not you, again. This was just a good prompt for me to get it off my chest

I think I know what you mean, but I've never observed you being aggressive *towards someone else* though.  I do think it's very healthy & necessary to feel the full spectrum of all the emotions.
