Here, here: the Swedish online love army who take on the trolls
#Jagärhär (#Iamhere) aims to battle abuse in online threads and jumps to defend those on receiving end
I still find that last line as creepy as hell.
“He’s not hurting the people he needs to be hurting” what the actual fuck.
Basic explanation: Crystal is a fascist and a sociopath.
I mean, I’m sorry, Crystal. That your name had to be ‘Crystal’ and all.
But no reason to take it out on others.
I wonder if Crystal knows she is a piece of shit or if she thinks she’s a good person.
It would be one thing if you felt she were talking about Trump ‘hurting’ bad guys in general (terrorists, serial killers, child abusers…that sort of thing.)
But you know damn well that is not who she is talking about.
Those who support and enable fascists will be held accountable along with their leaders, as the responsibility for every atrocity committed against humanity rests squarely upon their shoulders.
People on this website correctly recognize the problematic implications of men who desire women that appear prepubescent - but entirely fail to recognize the equally uncomfortable implications of adult women who fetishize “small bean” trans men for their resemblance to prepubescent boys.
I’m a prison abolitionist, so I’m going to suggest that their crime against humanity warrants summary execution followed by an expropriation of their assets.
Trial of volunteers charged after leaving food and water for migrants begins in Tucson
A criminal trial has begun in Tucson federal court against four of nine No More Deaths volunteers facing charges for dropping off water for migrants.
The Cabeza 9 trial continues today in Tuscon, AZ.
While CBP & ICE thugs pour out water & destroy supplies in an effort to discourage migrants by killing them; kidnap children; beat trans women to death; and murder women and children, nine Arizonans are on trial for the “crime” of leaving food and water out so people don’t die in the desert.
How many layers of ideology do you have to be on to run up against one of the structural flaws of capitalism and decide that the problem is an entitled population?
Good article with a bad headline
Good article with a headline intentionally misrepresenting the point maliciously.
two things: you can absolutely qualify for a ptsd diagnosis in the midst of ongoing, highly likely retraumatization, see: sexual trauma and the people most vulnerable to it. also it seems disingenuous of a mental health-based bureaucrat to bring up the concept of aunthenticity considering their choice of profession. like not to be cynical but we literally have this thread re: civilians & ptsd every week comrades
I feel like this response is working from the assumption that Dr Jabr is arguing that Palestinians (or anyone else) who are in the midst of an ongoing traumatic situation isn’t “authentically” traumatised by the stress of what they’re going through. That is not at all what she’s arguing. Instead, she’s arguing that post-traumatic stress disorder treats that retraumatisation as a constant and measures the individual’s response to it as pathological. She’s explicitly repoliticising our response to what is otherwise interpreted as an individual aberration.
Psychiatry is generally very poor at handling pain - and the assumption that pain is coming from an irrational place is extremely common even outside the context of PTSD. Consider for example how frequently people with chronic illnesses are subject to being told that being upset about their diminished health and quality of life is somehow irrational. There is no distinction made between someone left suicidal from a mood disorder - and someone left suicidal due to constant actual suffering which has made life difficult to burden.
I think that Dr. Jabr’s analysis goes much deeper than presented in this article, as something we should be thinking about cutting across the whole of psychiatry and the assumptions that medical field makes on a daily basis.
