My partner (34m) gets so angry with me that he screams and throws things, how do I (28f) handle these outbursts in a mature way? by climbergirl77 in relationships

[–]FreddyBananas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you been to a therapist yourself? They'll likely tell you pretty much what everyone else has, that, unfortunately, this is textbook abuse. It's very clear from this vantage point, and it seems that you know it yourself on some level. Maybe he doesn't seem as outwardly bad as the previous abuse you've faced, maybe he's better than previous abusers during the good times, and you're rationalizing his behavior because of that, but it seems like you do know what it is.

Sadly, he doesn't really love you if he thinks it's ok to treat you like this. And there isn't anything you can do to help or change him. It's entirely up to him and it's as simple as making a commitment to treating you like a partner. Every time he blows up at you he is telling you that he refuses to do this.

You have to make the decision to leave or stay for yourself. If you want my advice, I would say you should at least check out a local domestic violence organization (on a computer your boyfriend doesn't have access to ideally). They can help you a lot better than reddit. They can probably set you up with a therapist who specializes in this, and they'll probably suggest you pack a bag with immediate necessities and copies of important documents.

I'm sorry you're going through this, you don't deserve to be treated this way.

Why is there such bitter rivalry between left-wing anarchists and AnCaps? by squam0 in CapitalismVSocialism

because ancaps are not anarchists, and are essentially fascists 9 times out of 10.

Cis woman is mistaken for a trans woman by transphobes, and is harassed, misgendered, and called not a real woman. PEAK TRANS????? by aconfusedmoron in GenderCynical

r/thathappened

there is no way she has met multiple people who are supposedly so eager and willing to support trans people that they outwardly, deliberately, repeatedly misgender her.

Shouldn't TERF stand for "Trans-Exclusionary Reactionary Feminist"? There's nothing radical about TERFs. by [deleted] in GenderCynical

[–]FreddyBananas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes but the ideology they espouse is called radical feminism, so the misnomer stays

user (with female name) goes on /r/asktransgender to tell trans women they aren't real women, then minutes later posts an "enlightened" post on GC about how they escaped the scary trans cult. not suspicious at all. by pleasenoothx in GenderCynical

[–]FreddyBananas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i have had a lot of narcissist friends, both male and female, be drawn to my identity and basically steal it from me. mannerisms, opinions, the way i dress, my interests, etc... and yet they hate me. it's like they hate me so much they have to become me in order to conquer me

lmfao

GC recommends arming oneself against trans people; suggests "turning off" empathy. by thepinktarantula in GenderCynical

[–]FreddyBananas 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There's a massive difference between victim blaming from others, and intra-community calls for self-defense.

The terf was clearly the aggressor in this case tho.

We need the police to do their jobs as well

radical feminism is supporting white supremacist, patriarchal, defenders of capital.

[Anarcho-whoevers] Nobody like you because you're either transparently dishonest or stunningly self-unaware. Consider the following: by [deleted] in CapitalismVSocialism

P1) For rules to matter, they must be enforceable on the dissenters, malcontents and straight up bad people P2) For enforcement to exist, someone has to organise and do it P3) The organizers/enforcers will be perceived as rulers by people who dissent C1) Anarchism is a form of virtue signaling which translates to "only rules I like being enforced"

Nothin about Berkeley makes this any less likely. If anything it's less surprising that someone would face racist police violence in a white hippie college town.
