social abuse 🧵
each day i get closer but still feel just as far from the end. prolly both a lack of focus and of courage
it’s a weird feeling to endure the silent treatment from the sms community for months now; most times it’s convenient to allow me the space to focus [1/10]

but if i decide to challenge it, i am reminded, like i described r.e. luke, what i don’t see is vastly more dangerous than what i do. everything is happening regardless of if i watch, and all i do by looking away is buy time
that’s the trouble with this kinda vegetative limbo

if you don’t have a future then you can only buy time
i noticed i have to deny myself the ability to see that i am being ignored, because seeing it makes me aware of their commitment to the underlying strategy. i have the convo from last time so i know what happens in the dark

there’s a comment from invictus referencing a ganging up he did with a real life abusive friend i had where he used what he was told to undermine my grip on the social contract
“ronpat’s testimony indicates that your normal conversations with normal people aren’t so normal”

another thing that stands out is invictus silently read a rant i made about an issue, then after i settled/clarified/compromised it out w/ some1 else, he joined in, put words in my mouth from my original take, baiting me to accuse him of lying about me, then hit me w/ the receipt

the best way i can describe social abuse is it’s when people try to terraform the ground beneath your feet while you’re standing on it
in the case i’ve described here, the way it’s done is by isolating the person as being “crazy”, so hence now the silent treatment

i can’t put it better than lose sleep, it hits so close to home, the lines “they said i’m bein crazy cos to them black voice is white noise” and “enough of the crazy ‘crazy’ talk”
remi: “often you can feel like one crazy beige kid in a sea of ignorance shouting about equality”

they can’t tell me when i witness overt social manipulation done to me, that i’m being crazy or paranoid or w/e, holding it against me how i overreacted to jeff in the past? cos i’ve lived thru both lumardy and mlarvitar, i know exactly what i’m seeing invictus do here

the “crazy” strategy is basically disassemble my reputation and then silent treatment, up until someone else says what i’m saying and then it’s “oh let me read back”. so the reason it works is mostly that i was abandoned by everyone who had claimed to support me

and partly, because i really am swimming in the sea of ignorance of social abuse, as obvious now as it was day one the lumardy case dropped
i’m tryna speech-act myself into drowning in it cos idk what business i have struggling. it’s a long time and a cold sea [10/10]
