what is this

It’s bullshit is what it is. I was gonna post a big rant about it, but I don’t have the energy, and others have done it better already.

But the policy is bullshit. At what point is someone going to be considered to be advocating self-harm, and what is just self-expression? And hell, who gives a fuck if a blog IS blatantly advocating self harm? If a person is harassing others or being a troll, other policies in place seem to cover that. There should be no policy censoring unpopular thought, no matter how gross you may find it.

There are a lot of teens on here who are in a fucked up place, and this is one of the few places they may have to communicate with others who are going through the same shit.

It bums me out when I see people who are cutting themselves for self harm reasons (not aesthetic ones), it makes me sad when people are starving themselves. I want to help them, but I know that I can’t. But shutting them out isn’t helping anyone at all. In fact you may be taking away one of the few things that makes their life a little less shitty.

I dunno man, I just think this is all shitty and stupid.
