      Which in practice means: if someone tells me they are tangibly harmed by me articulating my sexual identity or by the very conceptual existence of a short story I think is neat, or that loosening prescribing restrictions on medication for my conditions has an innocent body count,

      or that me coming out drove her to the very brink of despair, or that the way I use words/express love/experience emotions is intrinsically triggering to them, or that me being visibly/openly disabled will convince people to hurt unrelated disabled people—

      If someone tells me their existence is not compatible with something I consider a non-optional dealbreaker— I believe they are describing their understanding of an adverse experience of some kind that they’re having, until proven otherwise, because I have to

      I can top-down define my own lines and limits, I can’t top-down define someone’s subjective internality So step one is always to believe them And step two is I don’t care

      In practice, in the real world, this generally results in a third option (you will notice most of my personal-experience examples fall under “then avoid me responsibly, coward” and/or “that’s not how people having substance use disorders works”),

      because the people alleging conflicts of interest based on harm are wrong about how the world fundamentally functions as a system of systems that even exists

      But if someone tries to make me responsible for “your very existence means my life is on the line”, I can’t skip acquiring the backstop that is “I hear that. Iff so, die expediently” as an option before arriving/in order to arrive at “That’s not even true”, it’s not what I do.

      Yes I am royally fucking sick of the people who *do* "belong", who matter, who sit in the center shooting bullets outward at the margins, saying "Prove to me you're not an existential threat to me, that we can coexist" Why don't YOU prove to ME that we can coexist

      Sick of centuries of scraping and begging and cajoling and persuading saying "No, my existence is of benefit to you, master, it's rational for you to let me in, killing me will only harm yourself" How about getting some actual fucking power and being the one holding the gun

      My bitterness is that white straight Christians have NEVER had to persuade anyone else to let them live, to let them stay on the boat, because they can make themselves useful They're always the customers, never the employees They walk through life knowing they matter

      If the immigrant narrative is such a positive thing, like Amy Chua says, if having to "earn your place on the boat" makes you the best version of yourself, then why not avail them of that blessing Why shouldn't they live in fear and have to prove their usefulness for once

          This is why it's very hard for me to give two shits about white Americans' "despair" in the face of globalization "What if the Chinese take over the world and they decide we're useless and they don't need us and they leave us to rot" That's just chickens coming home to roost

          You all had absolutely NO compassion or empathy for people from the "shithole countries" of the world when you were comfortable sitting on top You took great pleasure in building big thick walls around your shining city on a hill and taunting people clamoring to be let in
