[evansbby]

haven’t i always said that selena gomez always plays the victim??? ALWAYS???

#her victim mentality is actually insane #forget genocides forget children and innocent people being bombed daily #she needs to find a way to make it about herself #it’s honestly fascinating to watch how tone deaf she is #it’s fascinating to watch her spew out ‘poor me’ rhetoric EVEN IN THIS SITUATION #all she truly cares about is her ex boyfriend and his wife #I’ve always said this but I think Hailey Bieber is 1000x the woman selena gomez is for enduring all the hate that she does #that Selena FUELS #Selena plays victim card and makes her fans go after strong confident queens like Bella hadid too #but forget all that #IMAGINE THERE IS A LITERAL GENOCIDE GOING ON AND YOU STILL FIND A WAY TO THROW A TANTRUM AND MAKE IT ABOUT YOURSELF #she’s literally the worst y’all I’ve been saying it for years #and if you’re a fan of hers #like not even a casual fan but if you’re a selena stan #then thats fucking weird I’m sorry bc all her little army does is defend her when she’s clearly in the wrong #I honestly have people like her

So Hamas’ strategy worked on you. They never thought they could defeat Israel militarily. They want international sympathy and they have been using propaganda to accomplish that.

Hamas *celebrates* its casualties. Think about that.

Buddy, I grew up on the news of what's been happening in Palestine. All of this isn't recent development for me to believe the 'hamas bad, Israel defending itself' propaganda . Especially since most of the things said to be done by Hamas or Palestine are always debunked with solid proof as something Israeli occupation has been doing or ends up doing. One of those solid proofs being their own words and TikToks. I don't give a flying fuck about militia groups of any place.

I care about the people. Millions of innocent civilians being put through countless atrocities by Israel and it has been happening for decades. Hamas here is also a scapegoat at the moment for Zionists to point at with no basis to distract from or try to justify the genocide

Do you condemn the killing of babies?

Do you condemn bloody gory massacres and no mercy raids?

Do you condemn forced famine? Holding back life supporting supplies?

Do you condemn the use of white phosphorus bombs?

Do you condemn armed soldiers attacking children?

Do you condemn terrorism and rape?

Or are you gonna come in my inbox next saying it's all fair game when it's on Palestinians? Then you'll just contradict yourself, like you all always do, with your own words.

As for the last line of your ask, allow me to remind you, to remind EVERYONE, about the videos Israelis made of cheering when bombs were blasted upon Gaza in October, about the TikToks Israelis made of mocking those dying and they included their children in the mocking, videos of an Israeli man opening and closing his taps and turning off and on his lights with a cheery smiles when Israel first cut off the water and electricity in Gaza, TikToks of IOF soldiers hanging private clothing of Palestinian women as trophies on their tanks, so many videos IOF made of stealing toys and private property and laughing, all the witness accounts of IOF soldiers forcing family members to watch each other get shot like it's a game.

Who's the one celebrating?

I didn't fall for any strategy, I've been in the know before any of this, particularly the event that is consistently being used by Zionists to use as a scapegoat, even started. Find someone else to ragebait, it's not gonna work here.

#they want international sympathy? #aee you hearing yourself? #millions of people are suffering. and you'll just go ahead and make it abt a miltia wanting international sympathy? #how dumb can you get #how cruel can you get. trying to swipe everything the Palestinians are suffering under the rug by saying this #well. whatever. if you can't even see something this big is wrong then you have no hope. you're just blind #and your humanity is dead #israel #palestine #gaza #free gaza #free palestine #end occupation #from the river to the sea palestine will be free #there's world's biggest skinbank in Israel with flesh stolen from martyred Palestinian civilians for crying out loud #you're not gonna convince me Izrahell is defending itself no matter what you say #all your claims are alleged and without proof anyway #ask answered #anon ask

okay, fuck it. let's talk about remorse. more specifically, the lack of it

there was a post going around a while ago that claimed that izaya couldn't possibly have aspd, because he feels remorse, and its simply so subtle that it's hard to pick up on, and he simply hides it to maintain his image. given that this post is a jab at me and my work, i feel no guilt nor will feel remorse over jabbing right back.

(especially since, if you pay attention to the wording of the post and OP themselves, it's clear that they had a... certain other neurodiverse headcanon for izaya, and was for some reason mad at me for having a different one)

(but i digress)

let's talk remorse.

first of all, the "lack of remorse" criterion isn't, as some might be tempted to think, the most important "hallmark" symptom of aspd. let's break down how disorders are diagnosed!

in the DSM, disorder symptoms are classed into criteria. these criteria are sometimes grouped together. here's the criteria list for ASPD in the dsm-5-tr, the most current version;

under group A, we have the standard "this is what the disorder is like, and these are the symptoms of it. you need X amount to have this disorder." the criteria listed in groups B, C, and D are on their own because they are required for diagnosis. if the lack of remorse criterion was truly SO important that it was the hallmark of the disorder, the one symptom that sets it apart from all cluster B disorders, then it would be in its own group like those 3 criterion! but it's not, because while it's the symptom most people associate with aspd, it's not the hallmark of the disorder, nor is it explicitly required for diagnosis.

in fact, the main Thing about aspd is, uh, right there actually- a pervasive pattern of disregard for the rights of others. in layman's terms, aspd is categorized by a consistent behavior pattern of treating other peoples' boundaries, wants, needs, and human rights, as trivial. this overall behavior pattern is then identified by specific actions or feelings the patient has- hence the criteria.

i could end this post here, honestly- who cares if izaya does or doesn't feel remorse? it's not needed for diagnosis, and it's izaya's whole thing to violate the rights of others- he consistently treats people as his playthings, wether or not they want him to (usually not!) he disregards others' feelings (the suicidal girls come to mind wrt this) and is incredibly reckless with both his life and the lives of others. it's kind of a done deal!

but i won't because i have more to say!

so. izaya. remorse. he feels it, but keeps it hidden. he represses it. and honestly, he always has some justification or another for whatevet it is he's doing. his targets had it coming because they're monsters. or stupid and cowardly. or had it coming. or it doesn't matter because he's a god amongst men. BUT- he does feel remorse! ASPD cured!!!!!!!!!!!!

guys i hate to tell you this, but i've felt remorse before. sparingly, but i have. i am a Person With ASPD from Real Life, i've been diagnosed professionally and even had multiple second opinions check and re-check, to the point that it became a running gag. i, without a shadow of a doubt, have antisocial personality disorder. And I Have Felt Remorse.

(my verdict is it sucks and is terrible and i have no idea how you people do it. yall need like, medals or something)

because, as you might have noticed... a lack of feeling remorse isn't actually the only thing listed. now, a lot of websites don't actually list the second half of the criterion, they just say "lack of remorse" with no elaboration. it's hard to find a website with the proper informatiom on it, especially if you haven't read the dsm to see the full criteria list, so you don't know what you're looking for. truly, i don't blame laypeople for not knowing this- it's not easy to find short of going to the source itself

but if you're writing long posts filled with "facts" about a disorder that you do not have, you better make damn sure your facts are right lest you spread misinformation.

(hell, i HAVE the damn thing and i make sure i'm as accurate as possible, because i acknowledge that Having The Disorder isn't a ticket to immidiate expertise. but imo it's especially egrigious when you don't have it)

but, the criterion itself is defined as "being indifferent to or rationalizing" harmful actions. Or Rationalizing. you can feel remorse as much as you want, but if you stomp it down with justifications about how you were right, it still counts!

and finally, the name of the game with diagnosis of any disorder is consistency. if someone can make their abuser cry because of them and feel no remorse, that's not aspd. that's just a special case. if someone can make anybody cry because of them and feel no remorse, that's aspd.

similarly, if someone can make most people cry because of them and feel no remorse, with one- or maybe two- exceptions, that's... still aspd. because the behavior expressed most consistently is a lack of remorse. one or two exceptions to the rule don't suddenly make you not have aspd, especially if you have multiple other symptoms. (in fact, in some aspd circles people do talk about having "exceptions," kind of like the aspd version of a pwBPD's favorite person. pwaspd feeling remorse or otherwise not meeting criteria in incredibly specific circumstances is in fact a documented phenominon. once again, this happened to me and i've been diagnosed multiple times over. were all those doctors wrong, or does aspd just not work like you thought it did?)

izaya consistently represses most of his more vunerable feelings. that's another one of his main things. if remorse is included in this, which it would be given the pattern, then izaya most consistently does not feel (or otherwise accept) remorse. a few slips of the mask here and there, where he can't stomp it down or ignore it, don't change that the most consistent behavior from him is a lack of remorse. in fact, him feeling remorse here and there makes the portrayal of aspd more realistic, imo-

people with aspd are still people at the end of the day, and aspd is just another mental illness. people are varied, mental illnesses present differently in everyone, and people have good days and bad days where symptoms are more or less pronounced. any symptom isn't going to be set in stone in severity or even presence in someone's life- severity of disorder changes with age, someone's circumstances, or even day-to-day, especially with cluster B disorders, where the people who have it are defined as being "dramatic, emotional, or erratic" (pg 735)

things change. people change. mental illness isn't as simple as people think, and aspd isn't as different from other illnesses as you'd think. people with it- including izaya- will have their good days and their bad days and their rare moments where something breaks through the clouds and for one moment, you feel normal, however distressing the feeling may be

that's not proof that the illness was never there. that's just life with it!

#durarara #izaya orihara #orihara izaya #the moral of the story is; don't vauge me just bc you headcanon an Anime Boy with autism and are butthurt that i have a different take #and more facts backing me up. oops did i say that out loud o me o my #waposts #please please please be FUCKING normal on this post im begging you. im at my wits end #i do not care if you are a criminology student studying at the aspid crushing factory. ask yourself this- #WHY DOES IT MATTERRRRRR this is all over a Head Canon why is it so bad that i headcanon izaya with aspd #that you feel the need to like. defend his honor or something #anyway yeah. im gonna go eat dinner im hingry

wait. random idea. Pathetic(blame candy) muzan & kokushibo are exes from Centuries ago and he has Complaints hed like to talk about w him but all hes getting to now is Nakime. hes so sick of his bullshit and just enduring it and goes to kagaya like 'i have to kill kibutsuji. ill help you kill him & the other upper moons just PLEASE im so sick of this shit. i need to kill him' 'well you arent killing me so ill give you the benefit of doubt-'

since they broke up he's hacked at the curse to the point he can snap it Whenever without muzan noticing, he finally did so & went to kagaya bc he can Feel shit's gonna pick up soon. he has his memories but he Ignores Them bc hes ashamed and kinda projecting it onto muzan. he has to kill muzan to kill his shame kinda fucked up coping mechanism yk?

the hashira try to kill him On Sight together but he calmly deflects everything while explaining hes working with them to kill kibutsuji. reluctant acceptance with the note from kagaya giving him a pass. most of them fully believe its a trap tho.

koku seeing tanjiro & his earrings and starting to approach, giyuu already has his blade lodged in his neck as a warning/threat & tanjiro staring at him in shock like 'HUH?? THE MAN FROM MY DREAMS?? HES A DEMON NOW? WAIT WHATS HE DOING HERE-'

#allied kokushibo au #he gets to have a conversation w tanjiro (giyuu watching like a fucking hawk) about his brother & sun breathing and all that- nezuko and her #conquering the sun- koku agreeing that of any demon she deserves to have the sun's blessing. not fuckin *muzan*. he'll want his grubby #little hands on her as soon as he finds out. You. practice sun breathing Right Now you have to be Ready for this. #kokushibo #tsugikuni michikatsu #kny spoilers #<probably need to add that since this is like Entirely surrounding the final few arcs #he talks to tomayo&yushiro and shinobu and gets in on their plans. maybe stop shinobu from her suicide attempt & deals with douma himself #leaves more than just tanjiro and giyuu to fight akaza #i dont remember how kaigaku's goes isnt zenitsu the only one? if so he can keep that thats his atonement whatever for jigoro #nakime however is going to have much more of a Time defending against like 4 hashira at once #yadda yadda less casualties happier ending. koku not knowing what the fuck to do now. stop the need to Eat People to live obviously but what #the fuck. he still hates himself. all the tereible shit hes done and for What. does he kill himself? walking into the sun seems like a good #way to go. fitting yk? but if he becomes fully human like nezuko did what the fuck does he Do. just. Live? after all the shit he did? no.. #cool at the beginning but the ending has many questions #i do think he'd want to kill himself but i also think he'd be scared to see his brother in the afterlife. in canon it feels like a spur of #the moment Explode Yourself bc the emotions were overwhelming in the moment #or maybe its been way too long since ive read the manga and this shits ALL out of character #whatever it was funnie at first but then i put too much thought into it #def wanna see somethn with him & tanjiro talking about how theyre connected #kny manga spoilers

[dennisboobs]

i think everyone on sunnytwt needs to be sat down so i can explain to them what basic human empathy is. and then maybe i put them in a blender until they agree to write meta about the characters instead of whether or not charlie day got facial reconstruction surgery.

I wanna clear something up real quick

Tw: mention of proship and topics involving it

I don't know much about pro ship if I'm being honest but apparently it doesn't mean 'problematic ship' (I don't believe that)

I have proship dni in my bio and I'm gonna keep it there till you give me an ACTUAL definition for proship

Because every time someone says that it doesn't mean problematic ship the either don't give a proper definition or ship inc3st or p3dophilia ect.

I don't want topics such as Shipping inc3st or ped0philia

Head canons of r4pe

Or any other thing like that

I have boundaries

#proship #fandom #tw opinion #fandom blog #im actually going insane #im actually gonna nuke myself give me a real definition instead of just defending yourself

Final Ghosts thoughts cause I really need to sleep but am still thinking about it--

Choice to end with Alison and Mike taking the hotel deal at the Ghosts' suggestion, and having them return regularly like visiting family: GREAT ❤️

Execution of this plotline in the episode/series itself: not so great.

The immensely rewatchable 5 series as a whole: SO great, very happy to continue loving this show for a long long time.

#bbc ghosts #bbc ghosts spoilers #also to everyone else also in their feelings about this: #reminding myself it's ok to need to work on emotionally regulating when something i like a lot doesnt live up to my hopes for it! #when i was a younger fan I often felt (and still sometimes have to work against the impulse to do this) i needed to #defend the perfection of something i loved #or pretend that i wasn't didappointed by something when I was #it can be really hard to teach yourself to be ok with and learn to process negative feelings #because it's like the big happy loving feelings are so good!!! but sometimes that means negativity can feel similarly huge #so any criticism of something you like-- even if it's your own criticism-- feels like an attack you have to protect against #so that you dont tip hard in the opposite direction and suddenly find you cant enjoy the thing anymore #but learning to find the middle ground is a practice just like anything else #and you can keep loving something even if there are parts of it that didnt work for you #or were imperfect etc #anyway now i really have to go to sleep

FARSCAPE | 4.22 Bad Timing

#farscape #farscape gifs #johnaeryn #john x aeryn #claudia black #ben browder #john crichton #aeryn sun #my gifs #bad timing #theyre so in love #thinking about that post i reblogged earlier about the best ship dynamic being 'i love you so much it's terrifying - a love so profound so #quickly that you need to run immediately before you hurt yourself and your love' and how that's literally Aeryn's MO from the beginning #and then you have this line 'I always could [see how this would end]' and it kills me because she knew. She knew the moment John said 'not #lot. not much at all' that she was going to fall for this stupid alien #because he intrigues her - she's spent her whole life following orders. knowing that curiosity was something to be quashed. and then she #meets this idiot who's got no idea about anything and he stands on a planet marveling like he's never stepped outside his own home #and she's curious. She thinks hes a useless waste of space and resources. but she's curious. Because he stands up for her. he intuits that #she's going to be executed and so he defends her. he doesn't know her but he does that for her. And that - that is a kindness she's unfamil #ar with. #and then he goes and tell her she can be more. more than her upbringing. more than her training. and she knows that she's ruined. she can't #go back to the PKs either way and in that moment she's not sure she wants to #and you can see her resist so many times. it's like she can see their fate and resists. she makes purposeful turns to leave and every time #she's dragged back to him. time and time again. and every time it's like she knows its going to happen #but this love she sees. this future. it's different and its terrifying and so she leaves him. And then she falls back to Moya and for a #couple of episodes she thinks it might be okay to let their love play out. but then someone else dies or is put in danger and its too big a #scary for her so she hides it away. knowing full well that their love is inevitable.

Imagine The Entity banned survivors having anything better than flashlights/flashbangs/pallets because she realized they'd probably fucking mob the killers during trials. She uses her stupid spidey-bs magic to prevent them from grabbing a fallen hook and just decking someone like Frank or Danny (especially Danny) in the skull with it.

Let's face it- we've all thought about it. The Entity's realm is literally a 1v4, but somehow nobody gets the idea to just pick up one of the various sharp or broken objects lying around and start whacking some psychos?

Nah.

I can easily see Bill or David being the first to try fighting with their fists, but unfortunately The Entity uses said bs-magic to buff the killers so they barely flinch and it only pisses them off.

But then they see the hook falls when a survivor is sacrificed, or the planks shatter into smaller, sharper sticks when a pallet is broken. All hell breaks loose.

Imagine the fucking surprise when someone from The Legion is interrupted mid-Frenzy because they got clotheslined by a fallen hook attached to its rope, stretched across a doorway at neck height. Frank left gasping for air on the ground while Meg mercilessly teabags him.

Imagine Ghostface being chased off from his usual routine of creeping around by David and Jake armed with sharpened sticks from the pallets. He actually gets nailed with one and is equally surprised and offended that he still can bleed.

It becomes such a problem that Tne Entity, an eldritch horror beyond comprehension, has to intervene because her pawns in her weird and sick sacrificial game are acting up in unexpected, unanticipated ways and physically wounding her magically buffed psychopaths.

#dew rambles #dead by daylight #dbd #the thought makes me giggle #cause like #in a realistic situation you're probably going to want to defend yourself #rightfully #but the entity steps in and is like 'nuh uh' #imagine taking one of those toolboxes and just walloping them upside the head

I feel like Thunder begging Dappled Pelt to heal Leaf could work if it was framed as him being so terrified of being cruel like his father, that even when he nearly kills someone out of self defense it's terrifying to him. Sure, it's self defense now, but what if he has to kill again? Clear Sky said he was just defending his cats, or himself, all the time. Is he no different, even in this moment where it's justified? Of course we're supposed to think Thunder is wrong for fighting in a life or death situation so. :/

I think it 100% could have worked in any other situation. If it was a border patrol that attacked them? It would work excellently and display Thunder's differences to Clear Sky as a character. That he has compassion, even for people who attack him, even for people as horrible as Leaf (known bully).

My gripe with it is that it's literally a life-or-death battle, this crazed, chaotic crowd of screeching, clawing, dying cats, and he has time to HALT and call for a medic, and for that medic to hop on over as if she shouldn't be prioritizing her own friends. Because god forbid Thunder defend himself against a murderer and kill someone in the process

Thunder even has time earlier to cry that Tall Shadow merc'd a guy who was attacking him, and then Shaded Moss moseys out of heaven to be like "uhhhh fuck you in particular, Tall Shadow, for killing someone in defense of your friend during the Murder Party. Who Are You To Judge Whose Life Was More Valuable"

As if she wasn't thrown into a crowd of cats trying to kill her unprovoked because Clear Sky wanted to make Gray Wing "watch his friends die." And then the whoooole narrative pivots to try and imply everyone was at fault for this totally 'unavoidable' battle, even though we just read 3 books of how this was completely Clear Sky's fault and everyone was desperately trying to handle him with kid gloves

There's a couple of good ideas under there, but like... they are really not worth the garbage piled on top

#I haven't seen commitment to nonviolence this ridiculous since GDW #but this time there is no Jerome for me to hoot and holler and root for #Weed: ''make sure you dont defend yourself in war because that makes us Just As Bad'' #Jerome: ''i have killed 2 assassins who were going to reveal our position'' #Weed: *evaporates* #Not that it lasts in DOTC though. Nonviolence is only for people the narrative arbitrarily decides are Good Actually #One Eye doesn't get to count because he manhandled Clear Sky or something #dotc hate

I just can't understand why only 0.0000001% of women can acknowledge the nature of men and act accordingly (AVOID THEM). There are hundreds of documented cases (and probably millions throughout history) of men gang-r/ping women to death. Every man who did this found willing men to participate, they all had daughters, wives, mothers, sisters, who would eternally defend them. This has never happened in reverse, no gangs of women have EVER r/ped a man to death. Even if an exceptionally violent woman wanted to do so, she could NEVER find female collaborators and enablers. It's just such an obvious fact I don't know how any woman could ever trust any man knowing this. In wartime, during social collapse, if they knew they could get away with it, they would all behave the same way. THEY ARE ALL LIKE THIS.

My take on this is here in the tags. Long story short women aren't oblivious to moid violence they dont care as long as they get their nigel & the undesirables are kept at bay by other women tbh. The catch is that when most women do this, they inevitably also become someone else's sacrifice.

Women en masse will never hate moids; moids en masse will never love women. ⚫️💊

#zeeanswers #blackpilled feminist #blackpill feminist #female separatism #blackpill feminism #female separatist #I'm not saying this like women have the ultimate power to stop moid violence; it's more complicated than that but loving & defending #moids is just nasty. It's like a form of stockholm syndrome. They're stuck with these rape apes so they try to find the less evil ones #Women cope with moid evil by trying to 'love' it out of them but at some point womens willful positive feelings to xys becomes sadistic too #Twisted as it sounds; take a page out of these womens books. While they're busy loving moids; be wary of them but try to live ur life #between the cracks. Can make ya go insane worrying about things out of your control. Focus on yourself & likeminded women.

I’ve been thinking about the Oak family player characters, and a relationship with emotions and what they think the “right” emotion/reaction is to feel in a given circumstance. Like maybe I’m just a sucker for parallels and duality, but I think it’s SUPER interesting. What I’ve got so far is this:

Hildy -> Confidence/Bravery vs Fear

Henry -> Kindness/Empathy vs Anger

Normal -> Happiness/Cheer vs Sadness/Misery

Of course these aren’t like perfect descriptors nor are they always complete opposites, but I just find it very interesting how Oaks always tend to cover up the more unpleasant emotions, you know?

#dndads #cal rambles #this isn’t really perfect but it’s just been what I’ve been thinking about lol #and felt like wanting to share it #I had a hard time wording Henry’s #like KINDESS isn’t an emotion but it’s more well #while Normal tries to make himself as cheery and happy go lucky as possible #Henry doesn’t necessarily stop himself from getting emotional #but he focuses a LOT on trying to give or help other people instead of himself #LIKE. WIHWAGAODID YOU GET ME RIGHT? YOU GET ME. #anger to me is your way of protecting and defending yourself #and other times anger can be used to protect other people #THERES JUST A RELATIONSHIP THERE U KNOW #it’s not directly oppositional but it’s not the same either

not sure if you are interested but @/cherry1sblog is being really weird about niki and writing smut for him, they said they’d “wait a while” before writing niki smut that’s so weird to me I blocked them but just wanted to tell you 😕

hi nonnie i took a look at their account and have some stuff to say about their standpoints…

at first they got this ask asking if they’d write smut for niki and they said no/they would write something soft for him so I was confused but then I kept reading and honestly it made me kinda side eye because ???

there’s this ask they answered talking about how no one cares about people writing smut for other maknae line members but it’s literally far from the truth? because if you actually were on tumblr when both sunoo and jungwon turned 18 then you’d know there was a LOT of backlash for people who wrote/write smut for them both literally to this day people talk about how insane it was to be on tumblr at that time…so idk what they’re talking about when you say people don’t care about the other members because you’re absolutely wrong

edit: just saw they have a nsfw audio posted for jungwon…very interesting considering what they said above.

this ask also rubbed me wrong because yes it’s all fiction but that doesn’t mean people aren’t still openly sexualizing niki ??? this is a REAL person that you’re reading fanfiction about, no matter how you look at it writing smut for him as soon as he turns 18 is weird because he quite literally just turned “legal” this just tells me people are WAITING for him to turn legal so they can OPENLY sexualize him without consequences. that’s really freaking odd.

finally this is the ask I think the anon is referring to, saying “I’m going to wait a while” is actually so odd because it implies you know it’s bad to write for him immediately and have decided to wait so that you don’t get backlash, and you say “if I were to write about him” but you’re defending it like your life depends on it which makes me think you definitely plan to write smut/suggestive content for him and if you don’t then fine but defending it is very weird. secondly, no one is saying they don’t like a writers work, they’re upset because people are so fucking eager to sexualize a FRESHLY turned 18 year old, if you are sitting and waiting for him to turn legal age that’s predatory as fuck, it’s also wrong because he isn’t even legal he’s still considered a minor in korea where he lives and works by the way.

#I’m not trying to attack this person and I’m not telling anyone to attack them at all #don’t do that #but if this is your mindset on this you need to seriously reevaluate yourself and your mindset #also do not interact with me if you are defending this #it’s very weird and very insane #💬.direct message?! #nonnie my beloved <3 #ALSO do not send them hate that is not how you should be going about this

i would also post this to make fun of a language using the tweet of a racist xenophobic piece of shit. op is self-proclaimed white what are you doing besides spreading an islamophobe's tweet

It's like, they decided that people who abused them have personality disorder(no real proof, no official diagnoses, they just armchaired it, because mentally ill people are born evil and this is sooo not ableistic to think) and then went and called every single person with personality disorder an abuser and their symptoms always causing abuse.

And then they wonder why people with personality disorder are pissed off.

#you can armchair YOURSELF #because you know yourself on deep levels or at least you are capable of digging there #how people act and what they feel are NOT FUCKING THE SAME #you do NOT know what is going on in someone else's head #so you have NO right to armchair them and treat your conclusion as a FACT #and then VILLIANIZE a whole group of vulnerable people based on your fake conclusion #you are evil #npd #aspd #hpd #cluster b #bpd #personality disorder #you being hurt does NOT give you a right to spread hurt to others #and act like defending from you is somehow victimise you more
