A girl on my sister's farce book posted this meme . It is this type of stuff that pisses me off

[Now_And_Then]

I absolutely do not agree with the meme's sentiment at all as it paints a world of misery

Here it is :

How is that accepting? All you're doing is agreeing. That's not accepting and as far as the first part of the first section is concerned, it's also just taking away your opinion which still isn't accepting. What point are they trying to make lol. Accepting would be like, it's raining, ok I guess I'm doing inside things today.

This example is just weird. It's all the "happy" people who complain about rain imo, so they would be on the left. A depressed person wouldn't care all that much about the wheather of all things, and would be the one on the right. Or am I misunderstanding something here?

I think it's not about non-acceptance vs acceptance, which sets off cognitive dissonance and fighting against the meme or the one who posts it or agrees with it.

Non-acceptance would be denying that it's raining or attempting to stop the rain. One can accept something is happening and still detest it. The difference in the meme is about non-equanimity vs equanimity.

In the days of old when Prozac worked...
The first pic was me off Prozac
The second one was me on Prozac

What it should have said for "acceptance:"

Damnit it sucks that it's raining. I hate rain. But there's nothing I can do about the rain so I guess I'll watch a movie at home instead of going outside.

Lmao what is "yup?" What if I say yup and am still sad? I haven't accepted shit, I just haven't vocalized my dislike of it. I swear none of these are things people do they are just posts made to shut people up when they're sad.
