From my experience people on the sites (lemmy, etc.), are way kinder, more respectful and accepting, than people, I meet in real life. That might also be my problem as I'm autistic and find almost any in-person comunication confusing.

Multiple times when people want me to die for just -existing- but over the years of it, it's hurts less and less. But still very damaging though.
My feelings? not that I remember. My faith in humanity though...
I remember getting one from a fascist saying they wanted to "tie people like [me] up and drag their bodies from [their] truck"
