muck that is child abuse to claim to even have any choice to think.

Utterly disgusting idea presented as one of those fluffy-positive thoughts, shared on the fb page of "Autism To Maxx" -

" Don't regret anything. Good times become good memories. Bad times become good lessons."

My reply:

" Rape is not a lesson and it would be misogyny to conceive for a second that it is. Murder of a loved one is not a lesson and it would be fascism to conceive for a second that it is. Being in either side of the Israel-Gaza war or in Ukraine is not a lesson and it would be utterly evil to conceive for a second that it is. Having your child die is not a lesson and it forfeits membership of an intelligent species to conceive for a second that it is. Therefore likewise the monster, in an autism forum 20 years ago, who dared for one second to suggest treating as a learning experience a life defining child abuse that I survived and did not choose or consent to and that did not happen to several less nice people who got the thing the abuse took from me ".

Referring to the evil that my speaking out on has been well known in the autistic scene and helped others, particularly its permanent record go posterity in the book Bittersweet on the Autism Spectrum. The destruction of my child authorship by homework.

IT WAS REMOVED WITHIN HOURS. Original post morning. Because of its disappearance, posted the same evening this reply to Cindy Vien:

" which is exactly why, this morning I posted a response I can no longer see: that listed several types of unconsented serious life wrongs that it would be utterly evil to conceive of telling the victim to treat as a lesson. Concluding with:

Therefore likewise the monster, in an autism forum 20 years ago, who dared for one second to suggest treating as a learning experience a life defining child abuse that I survived and did not choose or consent to, and that did not happen to several less nice ppl who got the thing the abuse took from me.

take care not to look where you are going

Just picked up off radio 4: there is a new film, TILL, an angry true life film confronting serious moral pain and need to remember. on a lynching of a black 14 year old boy in Mississippi 1955, Emmett Till.

The boy lived in the more enlightened northern US states and was visiting the apartheid South. In a clip, his mother is giving him a concerned talk before he goes. She tells him, as point of safety and survival, "It's important not to look at white people in the wrong way."

Now. Any ordinary modern audience now recognises this instantly as serious injustice and is angered by it. Part of the era's black oppression, and of the same culture as murdered this boy, murdered kids for their colour. You instantly course with anger at this, and as part of it, at the idea of being unfree even to look around you, to meet gaze with another part of the population. Your moral sense against racism powers with the unreasonability of that state of existence. Now HOLD THAT THOUGHT !

To be under a witch hunt not even to look at people around you in what some of them are empowered to take as a wrong way, to be under instant hostile judgment for doing that, - IS EXACTLY THE PRESENT SOCIAL CONDITION OF MEN. RIGHT NOW, THE WITCH HUNTING OF MEN, THE CULTURE THAT WE ARE ALL A VILLAINOUS THREAT AND DANGER TO WOMEN, THE PERPETUAL POISE AGAINST US TO CRIMINALISE US AT A GESTURE, AND THE RADICAL FEMINISTS WHO WANT MEN TO BE CONVICTABLE OF RAPE ON ONLY AN ACCUSER'S WORD. This week too, the dangerous in-fashion dogma that accusers are always truthful and there is no lying about rape has been utterly forever disproved by the case of Eleanor Williams, convicted of making serial false rape accusations clearly evidenced to be so. THIS CULTURE INCLUDES THAT SOME WOMEN WILL INSTANTLY CONDEMN ANY MEETING OF EYES AS "LOOKING AT THEM," AND IT INCLUDES THE EMERGENCE LAST YEAR ON THE RAILWAYS, OF A DANGEROUS RULE AGAINST STARING, THAT CAN CATCH ALL SORTS OF INNOCENT WALKING-AROUND SITUATIONS FOR BOTH PASSENGERS AND STAFF, making it unsafe to look where you are going as you walk around.

Witch hunt against looking and deemed staring was part of the old US South's racism and lynch mob hate culture upon black people, now well damned: AND is part of the witch hunt terror against men in our society right now ! That tells you whether this present attitude to men is just or compatible with civil liberties. It tells you it is exactly the same evil as the past racism was.
