How warped is this.
We have all suffered enough by our own measure of tolerance to be on this forum. To have sought it out and be engaging on here. And yet, the mainstream anti choice narrative is such that it not only undermines what we have been through but also sees THIS (which is a form of relief, or hope for many of us) as something vile. It further alienates people who need the most support and love.
I appreciate this community. I appreciate that we have a space where our voice is not censored. Because censorship or not, people do die, people do WANT to die, and quieting those voices will not change reality. It is a shame that our systems cannot make space for the suffering it inflicts on many.
And by system I just mean that if we all had food, financial, social, emotional, and health security- we would have higher chances of coping better with whatever each of us are dealing with. I feel like somehow people have decided that instead of looking at whats actually wrong, it is easier to gaslight and blame the people who want to leave for being "irrational". It wont work.
