    Came here to make a similar comment having had a similar experience.

    Judging how “easy” someone might have it based solely on age is a ridiculous thing to do.

    Mental illness and or abusive parents or siblings (E: or as someone else mentioned: grief) don’t suddenly stop existing when you’re on holiday, if anything, being away from your own safe space and comfort zone, and in a strange place you don’t know surrounded by people you might not even be able to speak to, never mind ask for help, and your abusers potentially feeling more free than they would at home, can make everything significantly worse.

    There’s plenty of shit to criticise in the world we live in, emo kids reaaaaly shouldn’t be one of them.






  • What the actual fuck is wrong with the people we give power to.

    Change that to “why the fuck do we have to keep picking others to have power over our own lives?” and you might start getting somewhere.

    Power corrupts.

    Capitalism and its electoral politics (the extra steps it has taken from feudalism, that is nothing more than theatre to appease the masses) has always existed to concentrate, and then maintain, power in the hands of a few. Once someone has such power they will never give it up willingly.

    As long as there is hierarchy, there will be inequality. Which is why our system enforces hierarchy so avidly.
