Life’s fucked, no doubts. But that doesn’t mean you make comments that could potentially harm vulnerable people
Comment on Anon is a paramedic
inkblade@lemmy.world 15 hours agoWrong. I am not trying to convince anyone, just saying that using the “pain” of a parent to gaslight people into enduring the ever-multiplying pains of life–is fucked up.

I will not submit to tone policing or censorship. Anon made a post demanding people “hold on” out of filial piety. I am opposed to compelling an individual to endure persistent suffering purely to mitigate the grief of their parents.
Look at anon’s post. Was that veteran supposed to endure the debilitating PTSD accrued from killing innocent farmers, teachers, men, women, and children in an imperialist war in Iraq, just to ensure his father did not have to cry?

My husband, for a number of years, only stayed going for his cat first, and his father second. He happens to have a good relationship with his father, and recognizes he is lucky in this.
Im glad he held out so I could meet him and love him.
Live for whatever you need to, because life is long and there is always potential for better days.
