The lyrics "it's obvious you hate me though I've done nothing wrong. I've never even met you so what could I have done" resonate with me. I was in a bar a long time ago and was standing in front of a foosball table. A guy behind me started jabbing me with the pole(handle). I never met the guy before. I told him I knew it was him doing it and he told me to go outside (either by the front door or back door) in an effort to get me to fight him. I suppose it is possible that it was a case of mistaken identity but I didn't stick around long enough to find out. I just walked away but nevertheless I'll never undersand the mentality of wanting to fight someone or hate someone we don't know and never met. Imo, our opinions about strangers should always be neutral until we get to know them and see what they are like. Anything else is just pure prejudice.

[@mikereiss4216]

@@loloholmes2793 Well, I don't really know if this was a case of mistaken identity or if the guy just wanted to pick a fight with someone he thought he could beat. There was another time when I got into a fight with a woman I worked with. I noticed her talking on the phone in the office but didn't think much of it. When I left the store some big guy was standing there waiting for me asking if I was "the guy." Apparently this woman called some thuggy friend. I didn't know the guy at all. It was none of his business but he told me to not do give her a hard time and to leave her alone (as if she was innocent).I won't go into the details but this woman was trying to tell me how to do my job but then somehow it was my fault. Nothing happened to me and I went to work at a different store after that for a time. We should really just leave people alone.

[@cariannette1]

I was 15 years old when this song was released; now I'm 51 years old- I have always agreed with these lyrics- now even more so than ever - We ALL need to respect each other's differences in this world- no matter the race, culture, ethnicity, gender, social class or sexual orientation. and never go around purposely hurting people with violence, bigotry, bias, and hatred. When we will encourage love and understanding? I've realized more and more that just because some one else's background, lifestyle or choices aren't yours - we can still respect one another. We are ALL human beings ! Amen! #Diversity #Equity and #Inclusion #2020andBeyond #LoveOverHate

[@kroakie4]

Cari Annette, that can be a lot to swallow for some people. I know it was for me when I was younger and dumber. But I realize the error in my old views. It’s so wrong and hurtful to judge people on those kinds of things. We are all human and we all want love and acceptance - we should set the example of how it’s done.

I remember watching and listening to this piece of art perfectly performed by Depeche Mode when I was much more younger discovering the world and looking for happiness in different things without any serious problems and without any second thoughts things were more different pure and more simple now all things have been changed dramatically for the worst anyway I miss those years great times the only thing that stays always the same and it's definitely getting better is good music and the memories that follows it......!!!!!!!R.I.P Andrew Fletcher you will never be forgotten you are living through our hearts and through our mind's forever.......!!!!!!!!!
