Scam?

Never mind.

She's not Russian, fyi. I'm not saying more
1. They don't want anyone to or to even talk about it really
2. They've never said where they are from, but it ain't Russia.

Either way, I'm done talking about it and her. She decided to be a bitch so I'm pretending she doesn't exist.

Do you go to a haberdasher for your tinfoil hat, or do you buy off the rack?

WTAF is that comment about? You clearly know nothing about @KittyOfSteele as a person or their situation. Maybe think before you post next time.

You attack them and it’s somehow their fault? Yeah - feels kinda familiar.

Instead of making excuses and saying an apology won’t mean anything, maybe just apologize.

The main reason I don't mention my country still (a couple of you figured it out) even if we've got the head of the government off, is because I've been pursued two years ago only because of bad luck: I had to perform civic duty, and the hundreds of thousands of people who did that either got arrested, or went into hiding. To this day I still don't know if I'm being looked for or not, but I'm not waving my flag all over the place because the two stories I mentioned were not the only things I've done explicitly to criticize my government. I said it before: my social commentary was born during a time where I worked with political caricatures, and I still have unpublished cartoons that only got harsher as the years went on. And, as I said previously, porn is illegal here, though it operates in a similar way as the ban on pornography in Russia: the law isn't really enforced, but it has been used for extortion and sextortion by law enforcement, and it was used to close down a gay porn studio at the capital, and to raid a spa in the central part of the country; both were considered attacks against the LGBTQ+ community, which shows the hypocrisy of the government. I also have a friend who was taken into custody for being a cam girl, and that's mainly the reason I stopped.

The reason I never revealed my country before two years ago is because I've faced this before. I'm sick of people online (mostly my own!) gaslighting me into supporting ideas that ruined my country over the past quarter century because of my identity, I've been called a supporter of the opposite ideals, which also ruined my country when my grandparents were of my age. I've been called a liar because I speak English, as if no one is able to learn a second, third, or fourth language at school. I've even been called a liar because, again, I go against the popular beliefs.

I am a libertine. I don't fit in any category, and I don't want to. My mind is my own. If anyone falls into American defaultism just because I reject the mere thought of a form of Digital ID Verification on Literotica due to the fact that I KNOW how bad of an idea it is because I AM an actual target of my own tyranny, then I'm sorry, but it is THEIR problem, not mine.

 

[desperado1089]

Am I sorry? Yes.

Is it gonna do any good? Maybe, but long experience has taught me it won't.

Please get back on topic, all.

There is definitely nothing for you to explain or justify; pretty sure we all here in the AH support you and (hopefully) all agree on the verification thing. And I certainly do not wish to bring you trouble or speak of things you do not wish to speak about, I sincerely hope that came through in my post.

Peace.

I grew up in a right-wing fascist totalitarian state. Luckily I was too young to know that, and the country had changed by the time I was old enough to realise who I was. My parents were liberal - if quietly so, but even so some of the people they knew or interacted with simply disappeared and never came back.

It's difficult to engage with people who haven't lived that way, and it's difficult for them to see the way their own lives are marching towards what you and I (and others here) experienced. They lack the perspective, just like I lack the perspective of what it was like for people of my parents' generation.

I'm glad you exist. I hope the world will change, even if it's very dark out there right now

Although I was brought up in two liberal countries, my parents were not -- my mother, grandmother and aunt were the sole members of a large family to escape Nazi concentration camps. My mother's photo album has black-framed pictures of her freinds and family members on every page.

It's a duty for me to prevent "catastrophic forgetting" of those times. But I think talking about "wings" when it comes to totalitarianism is a distraction. I won't say more, this is not the politics board.
