people are saying such shitty things about me. ill probably delete this, but can some of my comrades just give me a pep talk if your up to in. I know logically I love this place and this is a bad day, but I cant stop crying, i do so much work going out, doing mutual aid, supporting union drives, working with the dsa and psl ect and it doesn’t fucking matter because as soon as I vent about the class of people who are giving me a hard time IM somehow stopping racial solidarity from happening. it hurts so bad and makes everything feel so pointless. i feel so disposable. im not gonna debate anyone i just want to chat with nice comrades who care. im actually crying hard over internet shit maybe its my sign to leave.

edit: THANK YOU for the out pouring of love comrade, here, in my dms, and on cytube. I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH. I will be staying. I will be taking a break after this sundays fanon post (its the last one and BEST chapter hope i can see you there) but I shall return even more powerful than before. you guys are amazing thank you again to everyone committed to making this a safe space for BIPOC people to express themselves.

    Agreed, if that thread has taught me anything today, it’s to be more weary of some folks on this site, caught a whole lot of ‘smuggling whiteness through the leftie backdoor’ vibes, also that “assume good faith” bullshit some have been peddling lately is not going to fly with me anymore, the one time I decide to play it all nice and patient and a comrade still gets hurt, fuck that

      Well, I mean, its complicated because I had someone not assume good faith with me and it hurt me pretty bad. It was on a totally different topic but I think for the sake of neurodiverse users assuming good faith is usually the right move. But on subjects like this I think our tolerance should be much lower.

      Its kind of a double edged sword though idk.
