It's one thing to say "I don't want anything to do with this" which I can fully respect, it's another to say "It's wrong and bad if you have it and practice it because of what I went through"

I dunno. I've got my own traumas and at some point I think I had to realize that I can't make fucking wide-sweeping statements about shit based on what I went through.All I can do is avoid them, I can't tell others not to partake in them simply because it exists ergo... what, I might run into it? No, that's fucking unrealistic nonsense.

Spanking's a fetish, I was spanked as punishment as a child. Against my will in every case. Does that entitle me to say that spanking is a kink that ruins lives, therefore entitling me to pontificate about how we need to stop it when we see it?No and it fucking shouldn't.

Recently, a prominent breadtube creator responded to the news of a depression treatment that utilizes electrical stimulation in response to depressive thoughts.You can probably guess where this is going“GOSH HOW LONG UNTIL CAPITALISM MAKES THIS MANDATORY”This is when I’m gonna chime in and say“Fuck you”

Y’all know my stance on how I think a lot of psychiatry exists to promote the healthy worker mindset but I feel that this sounds a lot fucking like“They give you pills to make you feel happy when ____ is the REAL MEDICINE”Y’know, new agey shit that a lot of us have had to put up with for a long time. And no, I can’t stand for this

Can it be abused under capitalism? Oh hell yes. You can abuse literally anything under capitalism as long as it meets the goals OF capitalismKnow what that’s an indictment of?If you say anything BUT capitalism or the isms that maintain it, that’s the wrong answer

Here let me take this to its extreme conclusionMedical care in general is an atrocious thing because it exists to heal you back to a state in which you’re a useful worker and nothing but. Ergo, medical care should be opposed.That’s still fundamentally an indictment of capitalism

It’s akin to saying pacemakers keep you alive longer so that more surplus value can be extracted, or that prosthetic limbs can be used to make you a more useful worker.If you consider this an indictment of anything but capitalism then dear gods do I have a sea for you to jump into.

I have ADHD. I can’t get treatment for it without jumping through a multitude of hoops that I am doing currently because my job isn’t impacted negatively by itThe key word is negatively.My disability, the thing keeping me from doing what I *want* to do at home, in my off hours, is Good for my boss. And that’s a justification for not treating it.Is that an indictment of me? Or capitalism?

This goddamn ableist “If we get rid of capitalism then you have nothing to be depressed about” is fucking atrocious and needs to cease.I can guarantee that in a post-capitalist world, mental illness will continue to exist. And if we don’t address it, so will medical biases that negatively impact disabled people.

“Well I have depression and I don’t need this”Sounds a lot like“Well I was spanked as a kid and I turned out fine!”

Yes I am absolutely certain that the public perception around a rail strike near the holidays would be The Greedy Workers Ruining ChristmasPart of the fun of coming up in a largely customer/public service background is realizing that being told “No” over relatively minor manners of consumption is effectively carte blanche for you to be the target of verbal abuse, physical assault, or outright putting you in a state where you’re 90% sure someone’s about to fucking kill you

Yes I’m consciously aware that chemicals crucial to water disinfection are transported via railMaybe we should treat the people who transport that stuff with the respect they deserve? Just a hot take tbh.

Fuck me if the parcel delivery services and the railroads went on strike around the holidays you’d have to install an FAA-approved strobe on my resulting *redacted*
