"Hurt people hurt people" is an explanation for harm, not an excuse for harm as we often use it as. Even if you are the victim of abuse, that does not excuse you doing abuse in return. Shit like that is what ideologies like Zionism are built on. We only break abuse cycles through accountability.

Interesting the biggest objection people have to my essay on Jacob Geller is me saying he should have been open about having SA'd someone. "Should he have worn it on his neck?". Yes. Rehabilitation requires accountabilty which requires openness. People just want permission to ignore assault.

Look at Dan Harmon
He came out and openly said what he did, said it was wrong, apologized, publicly detailed what he did wrong, made amends with the person he hurt, and never shied away from questions about it or tried to defend his actions
The path is there to redemption, it's just harder

To address this because I’m annoyed at the bad faith framing of my point. I am not talking about abusers private life. There are many conflicting things when it comes to that. I’m specifically talking about a situation where an abuser seeks fame and public platform.

The PAC boosting Collins is "absolutely furious" at the "ridiculous error" made by the buyer, which takes blame and has refunded the money.

An outside group mistakenly spent nearly $25,000 to boost Collins in Portland, Oregon, rather than Portland, Maine. The buyer admitted to the error and refunded the PAC.

In light of everything, if you want to share any video I've made, let it be the one on MOUTHWASHING, which talks about the ways sexual predators destroy forgiving communities, and how stories are warped to benefit those in power.

It's been a tough few weeks, and I've had a hard time setting finger to keyboard on my next essay. But I can't tell you how much it helps to see posts like this! Not in terms of discoverability, but in knowing my work means something to someone, at least enough to be recommended.

Jenna is both a veteran of the games media (having done fantastic work at Polygon) and very well educated in media literacy, something you shockingly don't find much of in Video Essays.
Also rare: her videos are short and well edited.

Comics worked my friend Ian to his literal death. You *must* take care of yourself. Please.
I end undergrad talks with the annoying 'comics advice' of: you have to sleep, you have to eat, you have to move your body in whatever way works for you, you have to engage with the world outside of your desk and outside of comics entirely. sleep is the foundation!! you can't compromise on that!!

There will be a lot of equivocating about all the times search warrants have been executed on members of Congress for corruption investigations and the like, and it can't be stressed enough in how many ways HSI raiding Ilhan Omar is extremely not like that.
