fuck everyone on r/systemscringe tbh the mfs in those comment sections are some of the stupidest most brain dead uneducated idiots ive ever seen. heres some dumb shit ive seen on that sub:
(paraphrasing some of these, but these are all based off of real things weve seen)
"the point of DID is that the alters don't know about each other" umm... no? that literally is not at all what the "point of DID is"? the fucking "point" of a cdd is to fucking survive horrific abuse. dumb fuck.
"8 alters is a high count for a suspecting system" yeah not really. people are different. that's still a pretty low number.
"i used to think i was a system and now i know I'm not so that means i get to decide who is or isn't valid"
"DID (they never seem to know about the other 3 cdds that can include being a system) is SO rare that NO ONE would ever be able to have irl system friends because its just not possible for two people in such proximity to each to have the same thing because its SO rare. its ONLY 1 percent of the population!" (which is about the same amount of people worldwide who have red hair, btw)
"you don't split alters after a certain age" this one actually killed me. what the fuck are they on?????
"yeah there's absolutely no way this is real no one would actually have an alter that isn't human!" this one pisses us off a lot, having a nonhuman alter is so incredibly mundane and reasonable?
"oh yeah this person has an animal alter but it can record a video/talk on discord??? checkmate dumbass fakers, animals cant use discord" like imagine being this fucking stupid. imagine having such a lack if fundamental understanding on a disorder that you're publicly speaking on.
"oh of course they have died hair/piercings/dress in that style/like that piece of media" oh no! people practicing self expression, how evil!
"anyone is making a joke/light of the situation/telling people about something funny/cool/interesting that happened within their system? FAKE everyone with a cdd is constantly miserable at every waking second and cant have any joy or whimsey in any aspect of their life!" this one pisses us off a lot as well because like, first off not very many people want to post super personal possibly triggering things all the fucking time. and systems shouldn't be sharing information like that all the fucking time anyways, especially publicly where these chodes could see it. second, i feel like its pretty common for seriously traumatized people to be desperately holding onto any bit of good and joy and positive things in life. how the fuck is it unbelievable that someone who is deeply traumatized would not want to focus their energy on the positive things instead of the horrific parts of their life and past. fuck off entirely.
to anyone who read this far, sorry you've been subjected to this bullfuckery, hope you have a wonderful day and you are valid!
