#psychological tactics

[littleapocalypsekitten]

I wish there was a way for people to make others aware of their causes and /or to talk about not forgetting things in the shuffle of the mainstream news cycle so on and so forth WITHOUT FUCKING GUILT TRIPPING PEOPLE. I figure that some of you all just can't help it, you're frustrated. I'm not saying that you shouldn't ask people to care, what I'm saying is that guilt tripping is a very poor strategy. I personally react with a violent pissed-off mood to it. And again, to head off further GUILT TRIPPING, yeah, I am AWARE that I have privilege and don't "deserve" to get pissed off. But that's the thing - I don't actually care that I do not "deserve" things or "shouldn't" be a way, it is how my brain reacts - instinctively, muscle-memory. It's like how my father would yell at me to do dishes as a kid, including using guilt-tripping tactics. Would take at least a day and a LOT of yelling / fighting before the damn things got done. In my adult life, I still drag ass on that particular chore, in large part because of the fights with my parents over it, but I get it done and take care of myself because of other motivations, such as "If I want to cook yummy things, I must clean." It's a psychology and tactics things. What I am begging is PLEASE, INTERNET, can you find a way to motivate people without the guilt tripping? Some of us have that immediate hackle-raise in our brains when we see it that makes want to ignore things or to immediately feel hostile for no reason.

the society: you will feel so much better when you forgive your abuser, do it for your own sake

the abuser, on top volume: I'M NOT SORRY, it was entirely your fault, and it didn't even happen, and I'll do it again! I'm doing it again right now! I will end you if you ever even say something!!! I only regret not being worse to you because maybe then you'd LEARN TO BEHAVE!!!!!!

society: forgiveness is going to make this all okay, we don't need to address this behaviour. I know I'm right about this

society: and remember, if you don't forgive them you are just as bad as they are! ;)

Abusers will force you into a position to have to defend and explain yourself because they thrive on arguing with others. The best way to stay away from their abuse is to not engage with them...But when it comes to abusers they will automatically assume you're guilty for something if you don't defend yourself and argue, they will assume you're guilty and justify bullying you over it. They put you into a position where it is double edged. Either way, they win so if you defend yourself they get a rise out of you and if you don't defend yourself they assume you're guilty and come after you. Abusers thrive off of twisting and manipulating the meaning of your body language, tone, subtleties, whether you engage or don't engage, or literally anything else.

If DMK has a crush on Mir Dragato has he ever tried pursuing it

He hasn't quite figured out that's what it is.

The "faster than the elevator", the "there's always a first time", the Loud Wink™ at the dinner table, the grin in the helicopter, the way he laughed at himself when he said "we killed each other", the "there's your balance, asshole"... you can tell that Joe thinks that he's the funniest motherfucker on Earth. And he is right

How’s my favorite married couple doing, hm? ✨

[incorrect-ikevamp-quotes]

MC: Isaac won’t come out of his room!

Dazai: Just tell him I said something.

MC: Like what?

Dazai: Anything factually incorrect.

MC, shrugging: If you say so.

Isaac, arriving moments later: Did you just say the sun is a PLANET?

On the subject of gotham county line and batman noel and so on and so forth it’s pretty frustrating (from a watsonian pov) that anytime Bruce hallucinates Jason being loving/ caring/helpful/compassionate towards him it’s always as robin and never as his current self

abusers when you're in a ton of pain, depressed, anxious, suicidal, but still obeying them and under their control: Nothing is wrong with you

abusers when you're showing a hint of resistance and finding joy in something that puts you away from their control: You're going to go BAD, who did this to you, who changed you? You are Wrong and Stupid and you will WALK INTO YOUR DEATH, you need to be Stopped Immediately, you need to get Help and be return to normal, you are Delusional and Mad!!
