Yeah, I do see that you are talking about something totally different from what everyone else is talking about and insinuating that people not talking about that are bullies. Which is why I said something lol

I don't really see why it's different, if you're talking about traumatic media (which is often covered with trigger warnings) then it's normal for people to discuss their backgrounds and how that influences how they interpret that piece of media. This takes place in Silent Hill fandom all the time without issue and then it becomes "trauma dumping" everywhere else and people start getting dogpiled by multiple users.

And I definitely understand why trigger/content warnings are important so I'm not saying they aren't warranted and shouldn't be used, but I am saying that "trauma dumping" is a phrase that has a conveniently changing definition that can mean whatever the dogpilers want it to mean.

...? Some people using the word "trigger" to mean "squick" or "thing I don't like" doesn't mean that the term doesn't have an actual meaning, or has "a conveniently changing definition."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emotional_dumping

Part of the meaning is not considering that you might be triggering others by going suddenly into detail about things without warning. There's no real sign of anyone here using the phrase incorrectly. Bullies misusing a word to bully people doesn't mean that actual people don't do this in inappropriate places, at inappropriate times, to inappropriate people all the time, which is what you implied
