I felt a lot of societal pressure to have kids, and insisting that I hate them all and would murder them if possible was the only way to get certain people to back off.

My point is that rather than taking this out on all the grown folks who place this pressure onto you, you'd rather inflict harm onto a vulnerable group of people you know don't hold much societal power to protect themselves.

Which idk, the moment Black people express grievances/annoyance of white people for always wanting us to "save the world" for their learned helplessness, we're told that's wrong. We aren't socially allowed to be out here saying we want to inflict harm onto white people in hopes to scare them away.

Part of socializing and having friends is being a good listener even when you don't actually give a shit about the subject.

Your are hurting other people's feelings when you bluntly respond with "Anyway..." and then change the topic.

It can not always be about your preferred topic.

Does your friend have a special interest or hyperfixation? I bet they can remember everything about that. Try talking to them about that and see how quickly they summon the ability to stay completely focused.

ADHD doesn't make it harder to pay attention in general, it makes it harder than normal to pay attention to and remember things you don't care about.

It doesn't matter how ADHD you are, if you care you'll pay attention.

It's like autistic people with infodumping. Some autistic people get really pissy when you tell them it's rude to infodump at random, but the reality is every autistic person wants to infodump about their special interest, no autistic person wants to be the one infodumped to.

Their stated values were lies.

They don't care about abuse victims. They only want to hurt people. It's right there in how they talk. A lot of people don't care about justice, they just want blood.

Have you ever wondered by the American prison system continues to exist despite all evidence showing it only increases the risk of reoffending? It's because Americans are sadists and enjoy the cruelty. They'll weaponize empathetic language about "mercy to the guilty is cruelty to the innocent" but the reality is they don't care about the innocent. They don't care that it's only making crime worse. They're happy about it: More people for the meat grinder.

The reason you're having trouble accepting this is because you follow an ideology that says people are inherently good. That all cruelty is the result of capitalism. You're not ideologically prepared to accept the depths of human cruelty in people you would otherwise consider "normal."

A lot of you guys did this when Courtney was crashing out as well, being just so darn confused at her behavior. I, of course, had already gazed into the pitch-black abyss that is Courtney's ashen soul so I had no issue processing the sheer wanton cruelty she exerted on those kids who followed her into her little groomer hidey hole.

In a sense I find that childhood bullying is extremely honest, because it's done purely for the rush of power that committing violence gets you. It's not about trouble at home, or a loss of agency, it's because they were big and you were small and it made them feel good to hurt you.

Think about the kind of bargaining people do in their 20's. Calling themselves "gossipy bitches" like it's a positive thing. They are freely admitting they enjoy hurting people.

That's what people like Brittany and Ant and Sai and Crim are. They enjoy hurting people. It gives them a rush and power they don't have otherwise, and there's no explanation behind it other than pure sadism. If you were to put them in power they would be monsters. And there are many MANY people like them.

People get confused when they ask me what should be done with pedophiles and my answer is "Psychiatric Hospital" and the reason I feel this way is because despite the sarcasm or hyperbole I take no actual joy from hurting people. I didn't even have the nerve or the will to kill the woman who had been raping me for years when the opportunity came.

I own a gun, but I'm all talk. It's for bluffing. If a mugger or assailant called my bluff I wouldn't have it in me to shoot them because hurting people doesn't bring me any joy. I'm not a bad person.

So I prefer solutions that actually solve the problem rather than slake bloodlust I don't have.

Talking about having empathy costs you nothing. Talking about having empathy for good people is the easiest thing in the world. And these people's empathy and leftism leaves their body so fucking fast the instant they have anything close to an excuse that lets them absolutely lose it on someone.

Gonna write this like a Wikipedia article
