12/13 If this kind of thing is happening in your own life it may help to talk about it with the ppl at www.thehotline.org The hotline will chat with you no matter what kind of living situation you’re in. I will not be responding to reskeets or replies. Heathline article on verbal abuse

11/13 “It’s a kindness.” This is gaslighting. Telling ppl that you will react poorly if they don’t do what you want, is not a kindness, it’s a threat. You can read more about this kind of language in the linked Healthline article. See 6 blame, 9 gaslighting and 11 threats.

10/13 “how I’m moments from responding.” This is in reference to the previous skeet she sent saying “Please don’t so I can remain kind.” It is also a threat.

9/13 Again, Anonsee is in full control of her own actions. If she wants to be ‘unkind’ that’s her own choice. It has nothing to do with other ppls actions. She could just as easily choose to game.

💫Dystopia💫 @sparklingdystopia.bsky.social · 17/09/2023
8/13 “I’m not blaming, I’m warning” This is a threat. She’s threatening that if people continue to try her patience she will start acting in ‘unkind’ ways. This was stated in a previous skeet with “Please don’t (keep lying) so I can remain kind.”

💫Dystopia💫 @sparklingdystopia.bsky.social · 17/09/2023
7/13 When called on it she might use the “I’m saying it literally” defense or “don’t put words in my mouth”. If she did say those things it would be gaslighting and possibly an example of DARVO. Please see a link at the end for further info on DARVO.

💫Dystopia💫 @sparklingdystopia.bsky.social · 17/09/2023
6/13 Using ‘unkind’ is also what’s called a veiled threat. When someone uses a veiled threat it’s so that they can have plausible deniability. You know and she knows that she doesn’t actually mean ‘unkind’, she means something worse.
200
💫Dystopia💫 @sparklingdystopia.bsky.social · 17/09/2023
5/13 The use of ‘unkind’ is deliberate so that if someone calls her out (like I am) she can say they’re over reacting. What’s the big deal about being unkind, she might say? That’s not a real threat. If she were to respond that way it would be gaslighting.

💫Dystopia💫 @sparklingdystopia.bsky.social · 17/09/2023
4/13 “You know I take poorly to being lied about. Please stop so I can remain kind.” This is blaming language. She’s blaming another person for her possible future actions. It’s threatening language because the implication is that if you don’t stop, she will be ‘unkind’.
100
💫Dystopia💫 @sparklingdystopia.bsky.social · 17/09/2023
3/13 She states that her patience is shot because crackers have been lying about her. That’s probably true. It would wear my patience out too. What she says next is the problem. From the previous skeet.
100
💫Dystopia💫 @sparklingdystopia.bsky.social · 17/09/2023
2/13 My main point is that no matter her patience level, Anonsee is always in control of her own behavior. No one makes her respond in a certain way. Her response is always, always under her control.

💫Dystopia💫 @sparklingdystopia.bsky.social · 17/09/2023
1/13 I used ‘this person’ in the first skeet in the hope of avoiding a name search. I’m continuing here for anyone that might have questions or recognize this kind of language from their own lives.

Panel1:Hey fellas, I hear a lot of calls for abolishing police. But how will we stay safe?”
Panel2:King. police abolition work is not about defunding every department instantly. It's about a gradual process of strategically reallocating resources, funding, and responsibility away from police and toward community-based models of safety, support, and prevention. The people who respond to crises in our community should be people who are best-equipped to deal with those crises.
Panel3:Friend, I want to echo that last statement and dig down a little further. Crime isn't random. Most of the time, it happens when someone has been unable to meet their basic needs through other means. By shifting money away from police and toward services that actually meet those needs, we'll be able to get to a place where we won't need to rob banks.
Panel4:Couldn't have said it better myself, King! This is bigger than just police brutality; it's about how the prison industrial complex, the drug war, immigrati

The message is never actually "you should hate x (drag shows, wokeness, whatever) because it's bad," but rather, "you should hate x because *I say* it's bad." Their goal (like that of any tyrant or cult leader) is to become the arbiters of reality.

This exactly is why pointing out hypocrisy doesn't work. All you're really doing is reinforcing the image they are trying to project of a powerful person who is not beholden to the constraints that restrain the rest of us.

@knilirabaj.bsky.social you reskeet this person sometimes and this language is problematic For the life of me I can’t find these skeets to give you the link.
a skeet by Anonsee that says 

What. That’s not accurate at all. I told Em that she should repost the thread in which I said white trans folks are still white but also still marginalized. What “upsetting mastodon screenshot” are you talking about?

You know I take poorly to being lied about. Please don’t so I can remain kind.

A reply posted by Sparkling Dystopia says 

“You know I take poorly to being lied about. Please don’t so I can remain kind.”

That’s one way to blame other people for your actions?The next skeet is from Sparkling Dystopia and says 

I like reading your stuff. You share things I haven’t thought about or can’t say well. But that statement isn’t cool.

Anonsee replies 

Alright, let me adjust to your expectations for my reply. 

I’ve been dealing with crackers in multiple portions of my life repeatedly lying about me in the past week, its my biggest trigger, my patience is shot. 

I’m not blaming, I’m warning how I’m moments from responding. It’s a kindness.

I am desperately trying to get my life together AND find a 2nd job, but no luck yet. I really dislike having to ask for rent assistance again ($700), but here I am. Thank you! 💙 paypal.me/rookkilljoy C*shapp & V*nmo: foxrook gofund.me/a6b0a356
Hiya, friends. I wanted to not wait til the last minute to try crowdfunding for rent and honestly I had hoped work would have picked up more. In the meantime, I've been trying to find another job my body will let me do but without luck so far. I just need to keep checking in. But that won't pay rent and so I'm back to ask for assistance. This month has not been kind to me and I just want to stay housed. Thank you all so much for being wonderful and supporting how you can. Sending much love to all y'all.

You’re telling me that the most powerful person in the country is a good guy but he seems to be weirdly allowing violent fascists to do whatever they want, including interstate stochastic terror campaigns - Then that good powerful man is a god damned accomplice of the fascists.

You would never do this. Warn your friends to never do this. Never ever. The best ppl warn everybody.
Once again, I DO NOT recommend students go to libgen (dot) rs and download books for their upcoming courses. I am NOT advocating for getting and sharing free pdfs of required texts. DON'T DO IT.Avoid them as much as possible, the links go:

pk1lib.org
ethos.bl.uk/SearchResults...
sabaq.pk
sci-hub.se

After all, who needs a super handy #openaccess tool that allows you, with a click of a button, to access any closed article?I also HATE this website archive.org, i do not recommend!! Definitely don't use email generators to "borrow books from there
