"It is your moral duty to stoically endure a constant litany of emotional abuse without complaint, because you deserve it because of crimes committed by people who aren& #39;t you, and the fact that you think you don& #39;t deserve it is evidence that you do deserve it."

I understand that everyone is coming from a place of hurt, and we are all on different stages of our journey, and I try to allow room for others to grow in their understanding of the world and their personal journey, but I am only so strong in my ability to internalise this.

And one way my weakness and difficulty with forgiveness manifests is like this: If you deploy abuser tactics, then I wish you the very best in your personal growth, but it is very unlikely that I will ever trust you again.

And maybe you don& #39;t realise that& #39;s what you& #39;re doing. Maybe you think you& #39;re justified, or didn& #39;t consider the harms of your action. This is probably true for a lot of people doing this.

But, well, apparently intent isn& #39;t magic.

I was aiming to give myself permission to express anger in this thread, but apparently the anger was mostly just hiding sadness.
