i think its really painful how the rhetoric of hatred and idle threats towards your oppressors on this site has been misapplied to like… people you perceive to be slightly more favored by hetero-patriarchy (or w/e power system) than you are. i understand the need for violent rhetoric towards actual oppressors, people who actively benefit from your marginalization, people with power. i also understand the vital need for intracommunity criticism, to try to eradicate the reproduction of power structures within marginalized communities. but i just don’t see how sending death threats and suicide commands and posting pics of yourself with knives and captioning it as a threat to someone who disagreed with you on an intracommunity issue as anything but bullying… and i think that there are disagreements in the world that are not oppressor vs. oppressed every single time.
