I think the point isn’t if you believe in therapy, it’s if it believes in you in return. The classic lightbulb joke has more than a little truth to it, you can only change if you can accept that you want to change. Wallowing in your misery does nothing but let you fester.
Well yeah, who could wallow in that?
…
I mean okay no, you could totally wallow in that in a positive way. Hence why that was hardly the misery I was speaking to, nor the festering that’s clearly at work here.
Right now I’m helping someone through some powerful realizations about themselves - maybe once that’s done, you’ll be ready to join me in helping Chicago. But right now, you need to work on yourself before you can even consider trying to help someone else. Nobody wants your help, not like how you are now.
I am already helping Chicagoans realize who Brandon Johnson is, by the actions and inactions he partakes.
You dismissed organizing collective action by refusing to call registered union leaders in Chicago, and preparing everything to confront the Nazis over next door. Brandon Johnson failed to stop the lynches.
You can’t even manage your own behavior in a conversation with your own allies, and yet you think you’re able to confront nazis?
As you are now, you have nothing to offer to me or to chicago. Violence is an important tool, but you’re not capable of that. You’re only capable of anger, and projection, and we dont want that. There are other people working to solve this, people who don’t need to pretend to be someone they’re not in internet comments.
This battle will be won without your help. Go home, and take care of yourself. Maybe once you do that, you might be able to help us.

Why would I wallow fascists deaths? Nothing would make me happier if fascism didn’t exist, ever.

Oh wait, you’re play pretending to be an armchair psychologist on the threadiverse!
Now your entire dismissal makes sense.
So, how do we end fascism in Illinois?
You don’t need to be a psychologist to recognize someone else in pain, that’s just… empathy.
Yeah, Illinois is in pain. What are you doing about it?

Let’s work on ending the lynches today.
