  • I know Democrats are stuck with a shit candidate right now that supports an apartheid state currently committing genocide. And I know they’re fully exploiting the fact that their opponent is Mussolini 2.0.

    I know they’re very critical of the current candidate, but what would they rather have? A psychopath extreme right dictator in charge of the world largest surveillance agencies, military force and nuclear arsenal, as well as one of the world’s leading economy and biggest influence on the planet? Or a relatively sensible paraissent whose only flaw right now is supporting one wrong nation and whose position can potentially be changed on the matter?









  • You can go and just sit and listen. You don’t need to say anything until you’re ready. And if they’re trying to make you say something and you’re not comfortable, you leave.

    Normally these groups are moderated with someone who’s qualified and they’re supposed to ensure this remains a safe space

    But, that’s all up to you. If your don’t want to, that okay too.

    I’m disappointed in your friend though. I would expect someone that’s going through the same thing to be more supportive or at least sympathetic.

    Have you heard of non-violent communication? You can also try to express how you feel with an emotion wheel.

    If you were looking for support in your friend and they ended up hurting your feelings, you could try to express that to them. That you were seeking validation and help from them but their behaviour/answer wasn’t what you expected from them made you feel rejected.

    Or, id you think they’ll be confrontational and want to avoid that, you can also write a diary of your feelings.

    If you’re feeling a lot of anxiety and have ruminating thoughts, you can follow the steps here to help you get through them.

    I’ve been dealing with severe anxiety and have been doing therapy and these are some tools that have helped me quite a bit. I hope they can help you too. 🤍🩵💜
