This is a good idea for those who are on the road to recovery. Also, given that it would be a recovery Discord server, I think the odds of such a server being shut down is slim as long as Discord ToS are followed and that no CTB related discussion on that server.

Only thing I imagine would be tough moderating, I run a somewhat big server (1.6k members) and it was really taxing mentally with helping people when they needed to vent. I had to step back and hand over the admining over to other members while i took a break. Whoever decides to make it with genuine good intentions, you have my respect 100%.

Hope it's successful and that you help alot of people with their recovery! One advice i'd give is a strict no drama policy, create an atmosphere of safety that anyone can go to (:

Great server for people who

- Are willing to be silenced about the role of transphobia in suicide

- Are willing to pretend racism isn't a factor driving them to suicide

- Want to be gaslit about how police violence creates more depression and suicide in their communities

- Want to be surrounded by people with no clue of how environmental destruction, landlessness and homelessness create suicide

- Want to be told by sheltered white boys from England how talking about their struggles for survival is "divisive"

Stellar work really. All the silencing and gaslighting of a regular psych ward without any of the trouble of presenting myself as a "danger to self or others" to get into one.

It's for anyone who's willing to be silenced about the forms of marginalization decimating their communities!
You tried to inject politics into the discord when it's against my server rules because I don't want arguments about politics. If you want to talk about politics goto twitter and not my discord.

Literally this! It's why I don't want politics in the group. Because as soon as someone doesn't want to hear them drone on they get nasty

Damn a discord? Sounds cool, I'll check it out.
You're more than welcome in the discord
It's for anyone who's willing to be silenced about the forms of marginalization decimating their communities!

Be aware that this is how people seeking trauma-informed support will be treated. So yeah if you want to be told that it's *naming* white supremacy that's harmful, rather than *enacting* white supremacy that's harmful, you'll fit right in.

genius out of context quotes!

the first one is pretty obvious why my no politics rule is in place

second same as the first i don't want politically charged stuff in my discord...

third yep that happens people lie about police brutality all the time.

last ones self explanatory if you look at the reports of what happened.

glad i banned you as you would definitely have caused trouble.

oh and calling me a " sheltered white boy" nice racism there dingus. you have no idea what i've gone through or what i've seen.

Calling white people white is accurate. Racism involves societal power imbalances, not just personal dislike, and racism is not inflicted by pointing out whiteness.

White people who imagine they "aren't bringing politics into it" by telling people of color that they're imagining how racism effects them,

By calling other survivors in need of support "divisive,"

By literally directly saying that police murder of civilians is often justified,

Are bringing the most vile kind of politics into it,

And are, at the very least, something that everyone should be warned about, in case they are in a vulnerable place and looking for solidarity and/or cultural competency. So I make sure to let them know where they will and won't find it.

I'm putting them on ignore. They can screech into the void with their stuff. They've only proved my point why I don't want politics in the discord!
im curious what their answer is. i hope its actually logical

I doubt that since all they've done is strawman me. Still giggling at being called a "sheltered white boy"
even if you are, its not like they dont have their own problems in life, cruel people destroying others lives are every where.

Hey @noaccount I'm just reading through the thread here & as a black woman please hear me out.

The other people taking part in this conversation are unable & unwilling to open their minds & hearts to what you are saying.

I'm not sure your ethnicity but whatever ethnicity you are.. thank you. Thank you for taking a stand against the bullshit.

White people who see blackness as politics happens in all spaces (Even the skating community!). Look up Planet Roller Skate - Indy Jamma Jones Racism.

She basically ran a Facebook group for roller skaters to discuss issues with a 'no politics' rule. What ended up happening was that everyone could vent about their experiences as skaters, females being cat called.. overweight people being fat shamed etc. But when black skaters began to tell their stories of being racially abused whilst skating the posts were deleted.

& on that note I'll say this.. please protect your mental health by NOT engaging with the people on this thread. Their views and comments are toxic to me & to you & the best thing we can do is remove ourselves from them. They will never understand & its not our job to make them understand.

Love x
