past memories, privacy, mh
It's easy to believe that your conditions are fine, that you can put up with them. But once you get out, once you find better, and can heal and discover just how painful things really were, it's a big thing.
I'm more than grateful that I was able to get away, and even if my healing has been slow, even if I feel like I should be better off than I am by now, it's important. It really is.
@Are0h it’s all so artificial, too. These people do not need to be suffering. The housing is there. The food is there. The materials are there, but money bars them from it.
the word "lazy", mh, abuse (thread)
I am not lazy. You are not lazy. Stop acting like throwing such a damaging word around to write others off is okay.
Abolish "lazy".
@XerTheSquirrel You too, dear.

@FreyaManibrandr @Ulfra_Wolfe I want nothing more than to give you all a hug and reassure you everything will be all right.
I took things too far last week tbh
anarchy and democracy
Also, two points. A democratically held decision can and should be violently opposed from an anarchist perspective if it contradicts freedom of people, in spite of impossibility of forcing people into freedom. Oppressed must be violemtly defended. And all of this is hypothetical, because neither western liberal democratic states, nor authoritarian states are democratic. They lack work place and or political democracy at every level. They are symbolically democratic, and that's only national level and that's limited in options by non-democratic nature of other apects of life and geographiv levels, but also by state legality amd nature of party structure. So, this isn't democracy. But more democracy isn't alwaya good either. Worst dictators are elected by more democratic than usual election processes. Democracies that are accidentally formed have a tendency to relapse and most social structures are formed accidentally. And ideologically democratic groups tend to show chauvenistic tendencies out of sense of superiority. More democracy isn't exactly the solution.
anarchy and democracy
But having democracy at every aspect of life, economy etc included, would be closest to anarchy, without actually being anarchy. Because then you can technically vote any hierarchy into power.
@Ulfra_Wolfe Fuck 'em.
I *survived* the Seattle scene.
Fuck this bullshit.
This is how vulnerable victims are treated. There were vulnerable victims before me, there are after, and I see how they're handled.
I've seen the bullying.
This is why I hated school, goddamn.
Alice and Freya, got their accounts frozen.
Oh, we're the clique here, riiiiiiiiight. Narrative control tactics are obvious ffs.
Hazel got blocked from speaking up for me and revealing receipts in a discord chat she shared.
Willow got banned from the discord embassy, in spite of saying nothing there. She was the most hurt victim in all of this. Like, what the fuck?
How many more are they going to have to keep silent as they go on, I wonder? When I back off until they try to fuck over people I know again, because apparently they can't help themselves on that front, others are going to come forward as they're hurt.
@XerTheSquirrel Thanks, you too!
