(Anonymous) 2021-05-29 07:10 pm (UTC)(link)I'm not saying one abuse justifies another. All I am saying is that privileged mfs love guilt-tripping parents who can't raise their children in the best conditions, all the while being way worse than said parents - who are often trying their best - to random people on the street (or their own employees etc). So, such privileged mfs can eat their own shit. With due respect.
Yes, obviously this wasn't the case for this character - do I have to say it out loud like it isn't obvious? This character doesn't even exist, and couldn't possibly exist because there is no magical princess hair in real life.
This is what you all got from what I said and I don't get why: I'd never tell someone, oh no, please suffer forever in the hands of an abusive parent/partner (well duh?). But I am really candid. People sometimes act like shitty parenting is the worst disgrace that could ever happen in one's life. Sometimes it is, and sometimes (often) it isn't, because many other circumstances can fuck you up badly for much longer than 18 years. Distinguishing between well-intentioned parents who can't even take proper care of themselves and psychopaths and kidnappers is pretty important instead of throwing them all in the "abusive / narcisistic + poor" box (because many rich abusive parents aren't ever caught or called out - they're just doing what's needed for the family! aww.).
What I said was exactly the opposite, fuck it - I said they shouldn't feel that they're condemned by their upbringing. Because THEY AREN'T. And that's what shitty people want us to believe. "You had a weird parent 20 years ago? Damn, you're screwed forever, your upbringing wasn't as great as I consider mine to be therefore your worldview is invalid lol maybe your emotions are mistaken because you don't love your parent like I do, huh. Go to therapy". Obviously all I'm saying is that people should be more "yeah, okay, this parent failed in this and did well in that" instead of OH NO ABUSIVE PARENTS SUCK!!! (and a lot of people who get thrown in this box were genuinely trying their best and weren't helped).
But morally righteous fake woke internet discourse is founded by privileged mfs anyway, who am I to say shit lol? I'm saying this to whoever feels like thinking. Most people won't and I know it.

(Anonymous) 2021-05-29 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)We're not fake woke, you're just high off your own power over people's mental states. You want privilege? Look in the fucking mirror. You started saying Rapunzel didn't have it that bad despite being in a gilded cage which is still a fucking cage, you waste of air.

(Anonymous) 2021-05-29 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)"sure she could be said to have a shitty life by some standards"
"Some people will miss way more than 18 because of privileged mfs, though - some people are unfairly put in jail or killed, some people are actual slaves, some ..."
"Damn I wish all my worries could be summed up in being gaslit by an otherwise caring mother (let's face it: she wasn't being held captive in a 2x2 basement), being bored because I can't go outside"

(Anonymous) 2021-05-29 07:55 pm (UTC)(link)But if we're talking real life based on the plot of the movie, some parents who restrict their children's activities, for instance, have good intentions (I'd say most of them, even, perhaps...) while others don't (and I've seen absurd things like raising your children to become sex workers). In other words, I think it's easy for people to assume the worst of type 1 parents and assume that they're the RL equivalent of Gothel because they don't even realize type 2 actually exists IRL.
And I really wish all my worries could be summed up in so little. As a Disney princess by the end of the movie her life had a quick happy ending.
