#(without realizing it)

Like, they know Batman’s second Robin met an unfortunate end, & now his newest partner is the ghost of an upbeat, scrawny, teenage boy.

Excuse them, for thinking the ghost being Batman’s dead son was more believable then Batman somehow having picked up not just another stray, but a dead one. How did he even do that?

I saw a Twitter post saying something along the lines of “I don’t care how traumatized you are or if you have a mental illness or it’s triggering to you, you need to be talking about Palestine and if you aren’t you’re a bad person”

is it true that you should ALWAYS post about Palestine, even if the subject is extremely triggering and can cause genuine panic attacks? For me, posts related to Palestine and the bad things happening can be incredibly triggering, and I’m so worried that I’ll spread misinformation or say the wrong thing and accidentally say something incredibly offensive and people will get mad at me. (I really don’t want to offend anyone, since I too know how harmful misinformation and offensive content about an oppressed group can be as I’ve dealt with it my whole life)

The post seemed a bit ableist to me, explicitly stating that they don’t care about your trauma and triggers and you should intentionally be triggering yourself in order to raise awareness of a serious issue. Yes, Palestine NEEDS to be talked about and people should try to research what’s going on, but are you a bad person if you don’t talk about Palestine due to mental health reasons?

I’d like some people’s perspectives on the topic, about if it’s okay to not discuss serous issues like Palestine and other subjects if it’s a triggering subject for you. I don’t normally like to reblog posts related to these topics as reading them can be upsetting to me and my friends, but if it is necessary I might reblog a few of them.

Imo I feel like the only people who have a right to say “you’re a bad person if you don’t share information about x even if you’re disabled or have mental health issues” is people who actually have a mental health issue when it comes to traumatizing things, as people who don’t have those triggers really can’t understand how horrible it is to have trauma and anxiety.
