      Wait wait wait, being abused to the point of mistrusting people so much you don’t want to deal with them is now a good thing?

          Right, the misogyny of a victim not wanting to interact with the group their victomiser came from. Just like the comic was dealing with, to bad this chain was started from a man cause fuck men I guess?

              Did you not read the abuse story or are you wilfully ignorant?

                Yeah that guilt attempt’s not gonna work here.

                This isn’t an appeal for empathy deal. A comic thread on casual, normalised abuse women face on the internet isn’t the place to unpack your personal trauma about an abusive parent. You’ll notice i didn’t bring my abusive mother up either - because it’s not the place.

                There’s a nasty habit in some circles of waiting until someone else speaks and then seizing that opportunity to unload your shit. At its worse it’s a bad faith whataboutism tactic designed to derail. At its best it’s a maladaptive coping mechanism. Find how to speak on your own.

        I never said the abuse they suffered was a good thing. Nor that they have to interact with women at all. In fact both things I did say fit perfectly with them never interacting with women.
