Scorpios......grab your torch and pitchfork!

You know, it's interesting. Non-scorpios are always complaining that we scorpios always "feel persecuted" when we're not being persecuted, or that we play the victim when no one is victimizing us. But yet....I just left a different astrology forum for some fresh air, because there was a post made on there where someone mentioned that there was a certain sign they didn't like (but they didn't mention what sign), and the comments turned into a conglomerated attack on scorpios. [Since some people need help understanding: the op did not mention a sign. Someone in the comments mentioned Scorpio. Then so did a lot of other people]

No Scorpio came along and said anything.  It was all non-scorpios just randomly spewing hatred for scorpios even though the op NEVER mentioned the word Scorpio

So I dunno. Seems to me that if people want scorpios to stop feeling vilified, persecuted, and victimized then maybe they should try the crazy idea of not giving scorpios reason to feel that way?

Just a thought

But what do I know, eh? I'm just a Taurus sun with a Scorpio moon whose chart is 43% air who actually thinks about things

what site it was?

Try re-reading the original post. The op in the other forum didn't mention who they dislike as a sign. Others started taking about scorpios on their own. Actually using the word Scorpio

This is exactly what I'm taking about

ofc its stupid to hate but people do it

It's other people that fight over Scorpios most of the time, positive or negative. Occasionally one of us might pop off but it's not super regular.

We mainly just like to sit back and poke fun to make people more mad and watch and evaluate their reactions. We're like more serious sags in that way lol. Like to stir the pot time to time to see what rises to the top.

I also find that a lot of people that 'hate' us and accuse of being manipulative normally just misunderstand us and often love us quite dearly, which is why we infuriate them, they're frustrated because we don't make sense to them. And 67% of the time they're probably a Gemini lol.

That's interesting :0 in my experience, Geminis are the nicest sign to Scorpio haha

Sex is a sensitive subject +

Don't take it personally.

That's fine. It's just that people should try thinking about their actions in relation to what they say. I.E.: someone who goes around saying "scorpios do nothing but victimize themselves" should not be the very same person that first attacks a Scorpio unprovoked.

It happens, we Stingers are used to this predicament and most of the time, we merely keep it moving.

After all, if there were no hyped up stereotypes about our kind, most may even find astrology boring, without our lot to use as an excuse for drama.

I think this is just the stupid part of astrology, where ppl accuse all Scorps of being "bad", and Scorps take pride in being "bad".

It's pointless to judge sb for a sign or take pride in being that archetype. Smart people know every sign has its features, its light and shadow, and the goal is to work to be better. *rainbowss*

Check in with our board once a week for six months and you'll see what I'm saying lol.

This is true. Scorpios, too, have a permanent presence on the Gemini board, more than any other sign... bar none, and I can 90% of the time never get behind the posters way of thinking. It's that inconjunct energy, I guess.

Blackburn, you must have mistaken our indifference and sarcasm as us, having pride in our reputation.

We merely use it to our advantage and make fun of ourselves in the process, because what else would we do ... start more drama, incite anger, or create fights ? Why, no thank you.

Of course, it is always pointless to judge but people will judge nonetheless. We simply work with what we have and the matter at hand. 🙂

Always within the top 3 signs ranked on search traffic each year for targeted traffic (i.e. traffic that pays for astrology).

I'd say I've had enough of some unevolved scorps : /

I really like Scorp humor, really, is as you say. But when I approached some of them I've found many insecure, vengeful and self-pitying/self indulging (Idk the exact word to describe it) ones. Doing things bad out of insecurity but not forgiving other's flaws, then taking "revenges" out of missunderstandings and being proud of it... immature ppl

But I get you, and I wouldn't blame you all for my bad exp.

That I would very much agree to. Blackburn, I am sorry that you had to go through such experiences.

I myself have also dealt with unsavoury characters from the Stinger lot but a good majority of them do eventually grow out of it and unto the path of the Phoenix. 🙂

Doing smth right can carry envy, but hatred is such a dark feeling. What I say is, if many ppl hate you, maybe you are not analyzing yourself properly.

I'm beginning to think that Scorpios and Geminis are more alike than anyone admits.

No, they're really not...

Ppl in real life won't like a Scorpio just from learning there sign. We get a lot of cold shoulders.

Yes we are!!!

I am the same person with my Scorpio.

We think and act the same.

When we were in business together people were saying we are the same.

They were calling me girlfriend jokingly (they knew we are both married).

Everyone would tell him something and if would seem not convinced they would tell him 'ask your girlfriend would you'?

It was totally innocently just a say...

Because out sameness was palpable!!!

From the first second we had met!

Wait, so there was a post made with no mention of Scorpio, people started hating on Scorpio in the comments and you had to get some fresh air because of it?

Sounds to me like you validated your own argument.

It also sounds to me like you're extremely sensitive
