Hi new people. I am a feminist in a kill god the Father, abolish the family, youth lib, KYLR kinda way. I’ll often talk about abuse, patriarchy, but also Portland, Oregon local politics
Best brain situation is actually unmasking with someone who (mostly) listens to my way too many ideas but interrupts them periodically to be like "look at this" about their special interest so I stay grounded

Amazing what a bit of access to power will do to a motherfucker. I'll quote them back to themself:

"...you will continually produce “crazy bitches” you then have to work to shut out.

You will never find peace."

Violent communication includes contradicting, second-guessing, and assuming that a person either doesn't know what they're talking about or don't mean what they say.

I think a lot about how profoundly unfair childhood trauma is.

It gives you a disability for effectively the rest of your life, AND can make you underearn, struggle with stability, become abused later in life, on top of impacting your physical health for years.

"Piper, this is really bad strategy to just post one off issues with people who are doing a whole campaign they workshop in a discord" yeah I know, I am not doing a strategy I am doing processing.

But like, a lot of people are very, very in denial that they have a Cop Brain, and some of those people also really, really like to show off their exercise of the Cop Brain and claim that they're only doing it out of necessity/solemn obligation and I do not believe that

Anyway nobonzo’s favorite tactic against their targets is to demarginalize them and claim they’re lying about it. They know it’s a bad look, especially as a white person, so they keep it to back channels or launder it through nonwhite folks.
What's the term for when someone (a white person, obviously) constantly investigates people's ethnic background?

Entryism is a problem & I worry that the new crop of leftist activists haven't yet developed a proper filter for tankie bullshitters like Cupp, who are a danger to the left.

And now Andy is having a field day using this for his Islamophobic agitprop.

Am I remembering correctly that this is a thing Yudkowsky is/was genuinely concerned with?

My therapist keeps pointing out to me that someone telling me their greatest fear was being "monstered" is a repetitional fear, not a fear of BEING a monster (which they seem perfectly comfortable with)

I'm wary of any 'activist' who uses their good works as a shield from responding to criticism.

Type of person who feels ethically obligated to be concerned about the autonomy of LLMs because they already see everyone around them as input output machines with no subjectivity so LLMs are in the same category as other people

It really sucks how much they made me feel unsafe talk about my internalized narratives from childhood abuse because now I expect everyone to actively use those to extract from me. It was already so hard to explore and grapple with them.

Something that sucks really bad about my CPTSD is that I often don’t have event memories of the trauma, I often only have emotional memories or fear memories (I remember what I was afraid might happen).

The most dangerous people in a child's life, statistically, are their parents. Everyone hates to acknowledge this.
November 24, 2025 at 10:35 PM
Okay but i actually did see someone say minors shouldn't talk to adults on the internet and this is a very bad take its super dangerous for young people to only have their parents (who are most likely to be abusing them) as adults to talk to.

And sure, some people prefer Latine. But mostly people just don't like challenging gender norms!
The thing that drives me nuts about the "Latinx" stuff is that people talk as if that demographic is a monolith. "Most Latinos don't like Latinx" yeah and most English speakers don't like they/them. It's almost as if queer and gender non confirming people are a minority in every culture.
