why do people think endogenic systems aren't real?
disclaimer: i am not a system nor am i part of one, and i am not able to speak for those who are. this is an opinion, and i would like constructive feedback on said opinion. i do not want hate mail or people screaming at me, i have had enough of that this week.
i do not get why people think endogenic systems aren't real. the argument i see most is that if it's not based on trauma (i.e. traumagenic) then it's not real, but i disagree.
firstly, many mental conditions can arise from non-traumatic experiences, and trauma is not a necessary catalyst for these things. i'm autistic, though i can't speak for others (because my support needs are very low) as a result of how i was raised, but not in a traumatic way. i've asked around a bit about this, and it seems that part can be agreed upon, in that mental conditions do not have to result from trauma.
secondly, i have not noticed any differences, aside from trauma or lack thereof, when speaking to those who are a system or part of a system. i cannot know what is going on in other people's heads, but i can look at how people generally act, and i do not notice any difference, though the sample size is low (about 5) so this could be coincidence. i might ask in passing conversation, "how does being a system work?" out of curiosity. they explain, and the explanations from traumagenic and endogenic systems, or members of said systems, are fairly uniform and don't seem to contrast very much, aside from individual mannerisms such as how it may present itself, which is bound to be subjective for any mental condition.
thirdly, i don't like the logic the argument as a whole operates on. if non-traumagenic systems aren't real, isn't that similar to the argument wherein people say non-dysphoric trans people aren't real, or that self-diagnosed neurodivergencies (e.g. autism, adhd, bpd, tourette's, dyslexia, and others as well, but i can't list a ton of them off the top of my head) aren't real. this is medical essentialist, or medicalist, logic, and it doesn't hold up very well under pressure. it frequently takes the form of when someone doesn't want to acknowledge that not everyone is like them, and most commonly presents itself in those who are bigoted in other ways, such as racism.
fourthly, when conversing about it, the reactions i get from either type of person are very different (sample size of about 40 here, so again, it's not entirely conclusive) if i ask someone who's anti-endogenic about it (what the point of the argument is, for instance), i am met with hostility and yelling, whilst if i ask someone who is pro-endogenic about it, i am met with straightforward explanations and my questions being answered. ultimately, it isn't one's duty to answer questions for others, but if one side of a debate refuses to answer questions and another is able to answer questions, then typically, the side refusing to answer questions is wrong. for example, flat-earthers will refuse to argue a lot of the time, and other times, they will mention various buzzphrases such as "water finds its level," and "density and buoyancy," which is a phenomenon i have noticed coming from some (but few) anti-endogenics.
that's what i've gathered from my observations, and i wanted to share this for the reason that i want to understand more, and particularly why some people think the things they do - in that they don't believe a particular group of people exists. to cap it off, i'll attach a poll below, asking what people think regarding this.
if you want to help the poll get more entries, then you can reblog this post or share it with friends. thank you for reading!

Question: if you are an autistic who needs step by step instruction in classroom, what kind of instructions would be helpful for a learning task that require self-exploration? What kind of support and accommodation best help you to get to exploring?

Anyone know what this cute lil thing is? I’m given the option to start or opt out. If I start I can’t click it or anything. I would rather not like, accidentally, sell my soul or something.

Song Review: Susan Tedeschi (Tedeschi Trucks Band) - “Looking for Answers” (Live, 2002)
When you’re fronting a powerhouse like Tedeschi Trucks Band, it’s wise to revisit early solo material to see how it fares in a new setting.
Susan Tedeschi did this very thing in 2022 when she led TTB through “Looking for Answers” from her 1998 solo album Just Won’t Burn. And the results were smoldering enough that they’ll be included on the LP’s 25-anniversary reissue.
Blues with a long wick, “Looking for Answers” is better suited to the more-experienced Tedeschi of ’22 than the young slinger of ’98. And with Derek Trucks slipping and siding over the music, the words take on a new urgency as a raspier Tedeschi sings:
Now is the time when I must ask you why/why must we live and why must we die/well I’m lookin’ for answers/lookin’ for answers that nobody knows
Previously unreleased, the live “Looking for Answers” follows an outtake of “Voodoo Woman” in the run up to the Sept. 22 reissue street date.
Grade card: Susan Tedeschi (Tedeschi Trucks Band) - “Looking for Answers” (Live, 2002) - B+

so i'm not actually experiencing this right now as i post this but i want to get it out of the way as i'm thinking about it
does anyone else when they get angry and/or frustrated and are arguing with someone experience a kind of sickness? like for me when this happened i started to feel kind of nauseous and light headed. the room started to spin a little and i felt like i was gonna pass out for a little bit.
this has never happened before to my memory until this year i think? i'm trying to figure out if this is a stress thing? hormonal thing? neurodivergent thing? trauma thing? something else?

music producers I need help
I wanna start producing music and the only ways I can do it right now are N-Track and LMMS, N-Track is on my ipad mini 2 and LMMS sucks ass.
Does anybody have any free easy to use DAWs I can download that won't require me to make an account? (why do I have to make an account to use a free DAW in the first place-)

Teenage Girls really look at their friends and go "you're my wifey now" but platonically
I've noticed a lot of people around me do this, including myself and I find it strange because it's only ever girls and/or afabs who happen to be queer do this-- and with multiple friends too. I'm literally in a polycule that started on roblox of all places.
I know it's not that deep but I really want to know why. Is it a closeted sapphic thing? Does it have something to do with how we're raised? Are we practicing or something? Is it all for funsies?
