I’ve talked about this in part before but I’m going to do it again, then I may or may not delete my account on this instance, not sure yet.

You ever feel afraid to voice your thoughts on anything because you don’t know how people will take what you have to say? Like you mention an activity, drinking, mental health, maybe strong language, just some sort of not exactly flowery content, and no matter whatever it is, from jokes to the most serious and heartfelt statements, you just feel like you’re going to “trigger” someone into having a shitty day because they might get uncomfortable?

You ever feel like any time someone points out that your content is triggering to them and/or others, like in a way your voice is being restricted. Whether it be a little post or something dramatic, doesn’t matter, there’s always this whole expectation like you have to be considerate of other people’s feelings, at all fucking times, and no matter what you’re not allowed to forget about that?

You know, I could make the argument that I get triggered any time someone makes these condescending comments to me. “Please use trigger warnings for this,, make sure you label that, don’t say this, don’t do that.” Seriously reminds me of special ed teachers and condescending and dehumanizing so-called parents and “betters.”
