this freedom member found the trick to surviving psy-waves!! duty hates him!!!

sorry, misinterpreted this before the edit was made

implying theres such thing as a good nazi protest? pardon?

my problem with this argument is always that it neglects the mental, social, and emotional effects of raising nicotine content

physically safer for your airways? sure, but definitely not mentally healthier

finally an acknowledgment of this

ive had to leave quite a few trans or generally lgbt focused communities online because of wild levels of codependence

the intense empathy in these communities can sometimes leave people susceptible to certain sorts of manipulation i feel,

several members of those communities i was in would be so easily manipulated by others, with threats like "do ____ or i will harm myself or i will not take care of myself appropriately"

and these often came from people in genuinely concerning and upsetting situations or histories, but they could use their own trauma to rope other people in and seemingly take them down with them

walking away from these kinds of people despite their threats is incredibly liberating
