Lit taught me...

Ltm that despite established boundaries, the vermin of the opposite sex still manage to infiltrate.
And because of established boundaries, I'll fight right the fuck back.
No woman should ever feel the need to remain silent when pressed, harassed and assaulted.
And if you're someone who does feel like that?
Just pm me.
There's an army here. And we all know one another. Yeah, we talk.

LTM: You all really must be dealing with some shit DMs and other crap at times. Apparently having a twig and berries of invincibility shields many from a similar barrage.

LTM: Maybe to not bother DMing anyone, despite having honest/friendly intent...

Here's the thing. Your need to comment on my post speaks volumes.
Do not mistake my expression of boundaries, as a call for your sympathy. Especially the end part where you are expressing your need for pity and that you" might as well not PM anybody." If that isn't passive aggressive I don't know what is.
Welcome to the list.

No, Just honest surprise at how often shit happens here. It apparently this is shit that I don't see, or am not exposed to.
And no, not passive aggressive. Simply noting that if this environment is truly that hostile, it's most likely counterproductive to making any meaningful friends anymore. Certainly moreso than 10 or 15 years ago.

It is interesting that you feel my own personal "What LTM" revelations are a passive aggressive attack. That in itself tends to further my opinion that maybe this board is not a healthy place to be.

Men seldom see more than a fraction of all that shit that happen to women. Even those who are on our side. Even when it happens physically in the same room.

And I didn't need Lit to teach me this, I've known it for ages.

This isn't an airport. There's no need for you to announce your departure.
 
LTM that there is no such thing as ‘meaningful exchange’ when it comes to politics on here and that few Americans apparently want to live in a society where pluralism is seen as a positive thing

I’m surprised that you’re surprised. It makes me alternatively angry and sad, but never surprised.

I can only speak for myself, but these statements are making someone else’s experience and post about you. And it’s not. Unless you are pressuring, harassing, or assaulting people, it has nothing to do with you.

Correlating the two, making unrelated assumptions, or publicly saying it’s the reason you would not try to make friends here or this place isn’t healthy for you does imply that someone else’s experience is now responsible for your own experience and highlights that the original point of the post was completely overlooked. I don’t think you intended it that way, but it’s important people are able to openly talk about their experiences without others putting their own unrelated feelings and baggage into the mix.
