lol yes wanting freedom and to be away from your parents at 18. A psyop. Jesus Christ.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I don't know psyop, but a cultural norm to say "when your 18 you're out".

From the age of 12 on, not only did my parent say this habitually, they also stopped parenting completely.

It was a common theme of rejection in my house. I could have been the perfect kid, and tried, but I'd still here "you're gone when your 18". Never mind I didn't even graduate Highschool until I had been 18 for a few months- it was habitual rejection all through my teens, and to me, sounded like, I'm done parenting you and I don't want you in my life past the years the government madates I take care of you.

Shit hurts. My husband's parents weren't like that, some of my friends were, some of my friends weren't. You can tell who's doing better now, and it's not the kids who were told they were out at 18.

If you don't intend to help your young adult children through their early start, especially today when it's so hard, don't bother having children.

To add, I got kidnapped once by a mentally ill "friend" off their meds when I was 20 years old. At 6:00 in the morning I was able to make it to my mother's door. When I knocked, she said I needed to deal with the consequences of my actions, And she didn't want to deal with this. So I had to get back into this person's car. My mother rejected me and my plea for help. I had just asked to stay at her house until the first bus ran to go home because I was in trouble. She said no and slammed the door in my face. I got back in the car, and a few hours later, I had no idea where we were. The man stopped stopping at stop signs because I kept trying to jump out. He locked me in the car. Eventually I was able to escape, and the police were called, and I couldn't call my mother for help. I will never do that to my children. Her consequences for her actions now are 15 years now of no contact.

I'm 42 and my parents recently moved in with me. Someone killed me.

I mean the real psyop is that they'll deteriorate your parents mental fortitude and strip them of ability to actually foster good nature in you. Instead being sold off to the cheapest daycare so that they do it because if they divide you, you cannot form that close bond.

Why do people still think it isnt intentional, they dropped crack to experiment on black people and discovered that division was extremely profitable. Insight violence and you indebt people, create false expectations so that reality feels deceptively depressing rather than just reality. Sell them the right to feel good.

Pain means profit, to try and end it would mean the world would have to accept an order. Want and pain are one in the same. Want your own rather than wanting to overcome the muddied mess that has become, rather than unravel and detangle the horrid clump of things unsaid, actions undone and regret unending. Then again, every person loves to be in their own world, rather than share it. It's why games, ai, and social media are so popular. You get to share the perfect details only on social media, the perfect picture. You get your perfect world with nothing but your will in virtual escapism. Ai lets you have a friend without being likeable or having to extend yourself beyond your comfort zone.

Just remember, family is those you can truly love unbridled. Get through the mess, and clean up together, thats the only way to know who will stand with you as the dust settles. Blood family is a born luxury, however it is not your only family.

Family structure is supposed to create a division of labor with age. By uniting needs you take cost effective measures to guarantee content survival. However, the young are illusioned by the concept of freedom, while bound by mortal servitude. Like a beast confused by a mirror.

Capitalism is the idea of individual gain, over communitarian gain. C'mon man every cult, church, and benefit society like the freemasons structures like this for a reason. Your commune is supposed to be a structure you can fall back and rely upon. Thats why tithing exists. It's to tide you over until you are no longer in need, however you must adhere to social expectations and responsibilities as it is collaborative effort. (Sadly corrupted by capitalism most places)

Ape together strong.

Jesus that’s a lot of words. I stopped reading when you brought the crack epidemic into it.

Godspeed.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Hey man, the crack epidemic unleashed a huge dynamic shift in all cities. It was literally done to fund under the table projects that could not use legally obtained money. Most of the violent gangs in Mexico started from american intervention and military deserters. You call them cartel probably. (While just doing the same thing gangs do in all major cities)*

Anyways, it just boils down to government meddling for profit without actual care for the citizens. Nothing new.

Im just voicing what I experienced, I suffered so much and you want to find a reason it happened. A lot of people have the attention they need to get the help they deserve, but that lot is usually only white folks. I cant blame folks for their birth, but I can blame the institutions that exist to perpetuate hollow existance for the sake of your dollar. Since my birth did not give me any of these benefits.

I have to carry my burden, and hope that change will happen if I voice my reasons, and act dutifully. I would never work for a corporation without compensation, but for you I would slave about in these letters. To painstakingly grasp my mind and splatter it into the screen, because I do not want more to suffer.

*I mention this because recent attention to the US taking Canada made me feel some calm before the storm. Misdirection I feel is the intent, since America historically chastises and attacks latin america. Sending away the latin americans means none to infight, preventative measures. Combined with recent reclassification of the cartel as a terrorist organization, and friendships with israel. (Netanyahu purposely funded hamas to build up an enemy, justification.) Essentially purposely causing harm due to their shortcomings, rather than actually make costly sacrifices. Everyone feels the winds of war rising, I am just an observer. Preparing for when it is my turn to lose it all.

I stopped reading when they used "insight" instead of "incite"

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago

Yeah, sorry I had to raise a kid by age 8, and another by age 12, then a third by 14. Dropped out of school and only in recent years got my GED.

Then again getting raped does change life.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Most people in most of history don't want that. Or at least not enough to make their life immeasurably worse.
