I say this because, although I have mostly seen it used by right-wingers, I have also seen some "left" folks rely on it.
It's one thing to point out a crab bucket "we suffered so you should suffer too" mentality but this is just ableist, anti-victim and likely misopedia.

"Sorry your parents didn't give you enough attention as a child" and other similar insults should be pretty obviously gross to say. Using neglect, abuse and trauma as an insult and often implying that that led to attention-seeking behaviour.

So... apparently the UK government is trying to ban anyone born from 2009 onwards from *ever* buying tobacco. Not just until they reach a legal age or whatever, mind you. EVER.
Not only has prohibition been shown to only make things more risky/dangerous but... this is just ridiculous.

Not so fun fact: the term “marijuana” was only adopted into English as a means to associate the drug with Mexican Immigrants (which is why I personally stick to saying “cannabis”).

NGL as much as I love spicy food, it is incredibly hard for me to describe it to others because my tolerance is so different to most people's. Like which do I try and judge it by? I can handle this without ever struggling but I know a lot of people can't, especially among white brits.

This is something I've talked about before with our system's littles being fine with spicy food but I find this extra hilarious. I was a literal infant loving this curry that grown men tried to prove their masculinity to one another by ordering.

Just stumbled across this on the vindaloo wikipedia page:
"The drunken clientele then demonstrated its machismo by ordering a specially hot curry," going on to describe it as "lad culture."
This is a curry my "mum" would dip my pacifier in and I'd love when I was a baby.

What, who in the Labour Party? You might as well ask me who my favourite Tory or Reformer is.

NPDers (aka Narcissists) typically only develop NPD because they themselves were abused.

Y’all aren’t “supporting victims” by attacking NPDers. NPDers ARE the victims.

Incredibly plural system moment of the little fictive in here thinking about how we really need to get back to applying for jobs en masse

You don’t support victims if you call them “abusers” for fighting back.

And how the responses from sycophants to criticism of "influencers" mirrors rape culture and DARVO, accusing often marginalised critics of trying to ruin the reputations and careers of often white, well-off "influencers", including leveraging "all the good that they've done".

It's also about how our early training to unquestioningly believe and trust authority figures translates into testimonial injustice and paternalism, celebrity culture and hero worship.

What started as a hunch that there's probably a link between "influencers"' lack of accountability and poor responses to criticism and doctors' disbelief and rejection of patients' autonomy and ability to come to their own conclusions about their symptoms has turned into a thread on so much more.

Like yeah, of course the paternalistic "feminists" that collaborate with the far-right on trans extermination and xenomisic, rapejacketing propaganda are going to align with the genocidal and colonialist state executing West Asian people en masse.

I feel like I see the TERF hearts and Israel flag together in a username so often and it's extremely obvious why but it's still just an "oh, of course" every time.

Tell me about it. First thing I learned about a certain popular anarchist youtuber was his abusejacketing of cluster-Bs. That eventually turned into me making a 46-post long thread on his DARVO usage, ableism in various forms, pattern of misgendering and malgendering. Still need to crosspost that.

No youtube, I don't think I will "help fans" discover our private system member playlists.

Contrary to transmed claims, it is very much possible to discuss medical transmisia, the gatekeeping of HRT and surgery, the lack of education on more diverse genitoplasties etc without being exorsexist, undermining the identities of or blaming trans folks that don't require full medical transition.

This is not related to my current presence in case any individual wonders, those 4 are still figuring themselves out and I offerred to make breakfast for the body so they wouldn't have to also deal with that.

Then Lady Sylvia accessed headspace and spoke to Lady Ruby earlier today just before falling asleep. Had a dream of being those characters and now... well it seems that prediction finally came true.

Satan> So... we started playing a game recently that we had already deemed likely for us to develop fictives from. 40h in and none, accepted it probably wasn't happening after all.

Remember when an american televangelist tried to argue that Tinky Winky, the teletubby, was gay and promoting homosexuality? Because he's purple with a triangle antenna and used a "women's" handbag. Apparently a Polish politician tried to follow up on that years later too.

We all can be susceptible to propaganda. We all have so much to unlearn and unpack; white solidarity, unconscious biases and stereotypes, the subtleties of the language we use every day...

An aspect of the "bigotry = stupidity" BS that I hadn't considered until last night is that it implies that the one saying this is smart and therefore immune to propaganda or being a bigot which... needless to say, is a pretty dangerously vain mentality to have.

Secondly, what the fuck?! No, this virulent misogynist and racist is not an "egg" or pre-transition because he thinks being a man is suffering; he is a self-victimising, anti-feminist propagandist perpetuating the idea that the minimal concessions marginalised genders receive are privilege.
