The eternal philosophical question.

I agree. It’s punishment based, which means it’s expensive, ineffective and retaliatory.

She was annoyed he demanded to much attention and was too whiny. Instead of pressuring him to seek help, she pressured him into dying. It’s just so absolutely without empathy, and the milking it for sympathy angle, it’s incomprehensible to me.

Also, is kinja fucking just me, or everyone?

How do you rehabilitate and punish a sociopathic child? Or teen? At what age does it cease to be parental responsibility, and becomes self responsibility?

The drug abuse, violence, suicide and general malaise First Nations people suffer in Canada is obscene.

I will never forget Rehtaeh Parsons.

Ditto. It’s usually because I was excited and put my foot in my mouth, but their isn’t malice.

I’m already finding reasons to discount this seven second rule. How will I stop being a shitty person if I don’t obsessively self flagellate?

That’s excellent. One of my friends does this and it puts all my social anxiety at ease. Maybe it just works with other basket cases?

This made me feel better about my constant over sharing. Ty

Honestly, that’s exactly what I though. the thing is rape and abuse are so esoteric and intangible to them, they’d prob choose rape.

Truth. If hyperbole was illegal I’d be in jail for approximately 1 million years.

Oh no honey, that’s not the right comparison. Bill in a wig hammering your asshole sans lube would be direct comparisons. Except not from behind, frontside. you get to smell her breath and she bears down on you.

I wish (can they?) lawyers could be reprimanded for that type of blatant and misleading falsehood.

This is the real privilege.

I thought this was going to a sad bad place, and you surprised me.

And rape isn’t even that bad anyway, it’s basically the biggest compliment you can get, so why don’t you just lie back and enjoy it. I mean your body will shut down any pregnancy from a real rape, so you don’t even need to worry about that! (cobbled from the worst real life quotes of republicans).

“The only thing that is worse than that [sexual assault] is the false accusation of sexual assault”

I can’t stay up that late and function and I’m WAY older than her.
