It feels so intractable to me. The only reason I don't do "eat shit and die" posts to anyone is merely my personality/communication style. But IRL with people who I feel will continue to harm me no matter what I do, I let myself get really nasty. It feels like all I have left? It's not in line with
my values, it's not good for my health, and it's probably not strategically helpful. But when everything else has failed, what else is there than the momentary release of eat shit and die?
I mean, I kinda am. How helpful is reporting that "pile-ons discourage lawmakers" without like, knowing which lawmakers are saying this? or whether its staffers? or if there is any actual basis to these claims? this is just hearsay with no facts
people pretty regularly say stuff like "if you replaced trans people with (any other marginalized group) you'd never get away with it" but people do this with all kinds of marginalized groups, same tactics though
im going to close comments on this one because words aren't coming super easily to me right now and i am worried i won't be able to reign the conversation in a productive direction. no one has done anything wrong i just am having a stressful day
