#school abuse

[us-the-voices-and-more-voices-2]

I don’t know who need to hear this.

but if highschool, college, university, or just anything like that is stressing you out to the point of suicidal thoughts and tendencies

you just have to quit, there’s nothing wrong with it.

your life is worth so much more than stupid grades or a degree.

for all the people in highschool who were always told “if you don’t do high school you will never get into college/university” I’m so fucking sorry but those people were lying their fucking asses off.

you don’t need a highschool education to get into shit, hell it’s mostly about the money. Knowledge is awesome and valuable but it’s not worth killing yourself for.

don’t burn out in highschool literally this is not even a fucking joke it DOES NOT MATTER fuck highschool.

grades are a sham, the education system is flawed as hell, and your life IS WORTH MORE THAN A 100%/A+

your life is worth so much more than that, grades don’t matter you’ll hurt yourself so much if you keep thinking that.

you can homeschool, you can become a apprentice, you can learn well anything you want online now! You can call up a local science teacher and ask them to tutor you, HELL! do whatever it takes to keep your life and your love for knowledge.

school sucks, I know too many people to say otherwise. Your feelings are valid you ARE NOT A FAILURE for not doing amazing at your homework or at school fuck anyone who says that!

genuinely those fuckers don’t know shit about anything, learning is mistakes and failures and learning FROM IT if you never got a chance to try again how is it your fault you didn’t improve?

don’t kill yourself over school that is such a stupid thing to do, you can quit school and still get a education!!!! people just want you to stay in school and get abused and stressed to death.

I taught myself so much, because the current ways we teach people fucking sucks ass.

remember the grades and numbers and all that shit does not matter, what matters is that you love learning things and you keep learning.

I will fucking slap you dead ass in the face if you say anything more, if your family is abusive and you have to be a high achiever? WELL still don’t fucking kill yourself over their dumb fuck obsession with you being “good at school” there’s no such thing as winning and losing at learning!!!!!!!!

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS WINNING OR LOSING IN LEARNING!

genuinely there’s no such thing! You just don’t get it the first time! But learning and education is about love for knowledge it’s about kindness and respect it’s about finding new things it’s about being happy and knowing things you never did before!

it’s not about you “failing” it’s about learning that’s fucking it.

don’t kill yourself over the modern education system take fucking strikes, advocate for no time limits, advocate for better mental healthcare, advocate and SCREAM protest against it all.

your life is worth living, your life is beautiful and you have done everything to deserve it, you are someone is is worth something, and I will listen and we will fight.

you will get to the next day you will get to the next one after that you will live happily even if you think it’s impossible.

you will and you will love you will cry and you will see and dream and live a life YOU want.

abolish school, and we will make a new system that isn’t fucking what it was!

you are worth so much more than grades and papers, so don’t think so hard about it. You are you and you are worth it <3

-sincerely your local suicidal fucker

if you think special education should exist... my school used us as free labor under the guise of getting work experience. we worked at local stores, and we worked at the school cafeteria - about 5 hours a week. they "paid" us a dollar a week in fake money redeemable at the school cafeteria... when they even remembered to give it to us. if we had been paid at minimum wage, it would have been $75 a week.

we were not allowed to stop working, even when we were distressed, or physically unwell. my teacher would regularly mock my peers. we were made out to be liars or lazy when we tried to advocate for ourselves. i would have sensory overload every week working at the school cafeteria, because they made me do/not do things under threat of punishment.

they used us. they neglected us. they abused us. they stole from us. all under the guise of helping us - "adjusting us to society." these schools are traumatizing and dangerous. special education is just abusive education. and our needs are not special. they are natural, human needs, that we need fulfilled in order to survive.

and by the way? the school partners with the state psych center to enroll kids who just got out. i was one of them. yeah. just sit on that and realize how fucked it is.

Those who talk about wishing they went to public school are talking about wishing they weren’t abused and isolated by their parents.

Childhood&adolescence socialization does not only exist in school. Your parents have purposefully isolated you from your peers not just by homeschooling you.

Protection from abuse must exist for every situation, and school would not have saved you from abuse. If it did, infinitely less of those who go/went to public school would be/have been also abused by their parents — as well as by their teachers (and other staff) and other students.

Systems of power are the problem, including, at the core, that of the family — and school is a system of power too.

And. There. Are. Always. Those. Who are too disabled for public school.

It's insane to me that since I left school in this hellstate this practice (solitary confinement in schools) has been formalized to such a degree that there are literal padded cells in school buildings in this state now. Like my PTSD is in part from being subjected to solitary confinement in an office with a desk and chair and work to do, I can't imagine how much worse it would've been for me to be forced into a closet-sized padded cell during those periods.

Anyway if you think American schools are anything but carcecal you need to like, open your human eyes and look at things.

school is fucking bullshit like how the fuck are you expecting a disabled person who is constantly in pain and cannot handle basic instructions half the time to do 35 hours of work a week in a building where they just see kids get insulted all day and then expect him to go home and do another fucking hour of work at home that’s barely possible for abled people let alone my multiply disabled and severely mentally ill ass

When I was a kid, I regularly lost reading privileges for "having an attitude" and "acting out".

It wasn't as simple as being told not to read during other activities- one of the first times it happened, I remember being six years old, watching my stepfather pull fistfuls of books off my bookshelf and throw them to the floor in a heaping mess while I cried and asked him to stop.

It was weird. Every other adult I knew described me as exceptionally well-behaved, but at home, it was the opposite, and it was blamed on "learning bad habits from that shit you're reading".

Because I couldn't read at home, I spent all my free time at school in the library, reading with my friends.

When I grew up and moved away, I realized that my family life was toxic and abusive, and the "attitudes" I was being punished for were standing up for myself, standing up for my younger siblings, and resisting actual, real-life psychological abuse. Because I'd learned from what I'd read that my family wasn't normal, not like my parents said it was, and in my stories, the heroes were the people who spoke out when it was hard to.

It is insane to me that there are students right now who can't access books. It is insane that books are being outlawed. It is perverse that we are stealing away an entire generation's ability to contextualize their lives, to learn about the world around them, to develop critical thinking skills and express themselves and feel connected to the world or escape from it, whatever and whenever and however they need.

That is not how you raise a compassionate, thoughtful, powerful society.

That's how you process cattle.

It's fucking disgusting.

the fox god.

a comic about a trickster.

creative notes:

all my other comics

store

#cw: emotional abuse #cw: gaslighting #cw: animal death #charity - a god whose name was only ever meant to be ironic #i love playing with the concept of religion like this #im not religious at all but i did go to a christian school for twelve years #and i remember learning about the story of abraham. who long story short gets told by god to kill his son to prove his love for god. #and at the veeeery last minute god goes sike! this was a test to see if you'd do it! here's a lamb to slaughter instead #but the whole concept of that exchange in and of itself is so #anyway #one thing i meant to include in the creative notes but i ran out of room for is that charity never calls cunning by his name. #it's just “fox”. which was a small touch to indicate that he never acknowledged cunning's identity outside of being something exploitable. #but for all charity's hidden disdain for cunning #he still stole all his strengths and coveted them. he became known as the fox god. #so maybe some part of cunning survived. despite everything. #“give me your heart.” #“my god. it had always been yours.” #comic art #hearteaters #stillindigo art #stillindigo comics #one more comic to go until im finished with this collection!!

Learning that someone that abused you in whatever ways is finally (probably) getting accused and brought to law by others that could talk about it is at the same time freeing and also awfully remindful of what happened, even if you don't remember it all

I feel bad for feeling happy this person is getting inspected and hopefully never teaches again, apparently it's cause I'm a victim and toxic narcissist people tend to make you feel afraid

I just wanted to say : there is a karma even if it's late, the persons that did wrong things will have the karma in their faces

I cried for hours with those mixed feelings and still feel not perfect, it's okay to take time and have hope

And it's not your fault, nothing is. You aren't at fault for living what you lived, for not telling anyone, for being afraid, for being finally free

A 13-year-old boy in Orange County, California was called a terrorist by a classmate. He responded with “Free Palestine” and was suspended for 3 days. Per his aunt,

“They (school admin) expressed to my nephew that the words ‘Free Palestine’ meant death to all Jews and should never be said.

“Two weeks ago, Ibrahim was threatened with hate and racist comments by two Israeli students. The Israeli students told him ‘go back to your country’ (which is Palestine) and started laughing, saying ‘oh too bad you don’t have a country it’s getting bombed so go kill yourself!’

“My sister went and spoke to the principal Mr. Haley Jacob and he said, ‘don’t worry, we will talk with those boys.’ However, none of them got suspended!

“The principal proceeded to harass my nephew and ask him questions like ‘do you even know what happened in 1948?’ Mocking my nephew’s freedom of speech… This is an act of hate and dehumanization of our people. We have the right to speak for freedom.”
