I was inspired to dig around for some delicious downvote trauma from @JimieWhales comment since I hadn't in a while and found a day old downvote trauma thread in my favorite girlboss sub, /r/CPTSD
I know I'm asking for downvotes for this one, so this time I'm prepared lol.
Like you just poured your entire list of traumas and coping mechanisms into one post, you allow your heart to just let everything out, raw and uncensored, entirely of how you feel. You're sad, you needed to let it out, so you did. You're in a weak place right now.
You upload it, and the first reaction you get is that you're indirectly told that it's stupid or doesn't matter so people hit the dislike button. At least, to me, that's how it feels. Which is fair, not everyone on Earth is going to approve of me as a person or who I am or what I do. There are plenty of people on this planet who hate me. But honestly it just re-enables the notion that my trauma really is my fault, that I am a bad person, and sometimes I don't know wether it's a safe place to ramble or not if someone was so quick to say my issues were invalid in a sub that was literally created exactly for what the subject matter was about.
This is honestly though, with everything I ever post or upload. One Downvote, I delete it. One dislike on a YouTube video, I delete it. I don't know why I'm so sensitive, but one singular hint of someone disapproving my issues or me really expressing myself just sours my mood and I just go silent. My brain makes a big deal out of the most trivial things, even down to some stranger across the country who doesn't even know me judging who I am or what I say. Is this a trauma thing? Does anyone else deal with this? Why?? Why am I so darn sensitive to every little thing?
I think some of it is just trolling. When I sort by new there's been a few times that I've seen several posts in a row that have been downvoted to zero, like someone has just worked their way down the list and hit the down arrow.
Oh wow, that's such a piece of shit thing for someone to do on a sub like this...
Most of the time I post it and then immediately delete it because maybe someone will argue with me.
Years ago, I deleted my whole account for a downvote on a sensitive reply I made. And yes, definitely a trauma thing for me. Perfectionism can be brutal.
Upvoting to counter all the downvotes :) are you familiar with Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria?
time to add a new thing to the CTPSD/CFS/POTS/fibromyalgia/chronic lyme/long covid list
Decided to dig deeper into seeing who you're causing downvote trauma to when you're irresponsible with your heckin' downdoots.

I know 90% of people irrespective of gender are losers.
However, it feels like women are completely incapable of sympathizing with even the remaining 10% of men, and where they do sympathize, they excuse behaviors in the 10% that they consider unacceptable social evils in all other men? Why do women do this? Why do they discourage the same behaviors in 90% of men that they accept and celebrate in the remaining 10%?
Somebody explain as if You are talking to an autist who only thinks in black and white literal statements.

My backyard borders the state gamelands, I've had bears in my yard. I've seen them as close as my front door and they are usually minding their own business, and run away if you are loud enough. I needed a protection order to get my ex away from me. So, I'll take the bear.
I realized I'm not very informed about bears, so I hopped to Google to see how often they attack humans:
Although rare, attacks on humans have occurred, inflicting serious injuries and death. Each bear and each experience is unique; there is no single strategy that will work in all situations and that guarantees safety. Most bear encounters end without injury.
And then I realized we can rewrite it like:
Although rare, attacks on women have occurred, inflicting serious injuries and death. Each man and each experience is unique; there is no single strategy that will work in all situations and that guarantees safety. Most encounters with a man end without injury.
But I guess I'd rather be in the forest with a man, just because it's a more familiar terrifying situation.
If I die by bear, it wasn't personal. It was an animal doing animal things for animal reasons.
If I die by man, it was most certainly personal. It was a person making a choice to hurt me for cruel reasons.
I'd sooner take my chances with a bear.
I shoot astrophotography so I'm sometimes out all night alone in remote areas. I keep bear spray and a knife on me during those trips and it's definitely NOT the bears that I'm worried about.
I dunno. I live pretty rural and I assume there is some sort of predator nearby when I go hiking. Out of the two if I saw a wild animal predator like a cat or bear (ignoring the standard rule that if you were being stalked you wouldn't see it until the initial charge/attack) I think I'd feel semi secure just backtracking to my vehicle as long as I'm armed.
If I saw a man coming and he gave me predator vibes I'm not sure. I've read stories of women even with like a Doberman being overpowered if the man is armed because he's proactive with his weapon. The timing of “is he coming for me or just walking past me” can be the difference of life or death even with a protection dog. He could even disarm me if he came at me with that as a priority and caught me off guard instantly. I think a bear wouldn't reach for my gun and hopefully I've responded by the time it got that close.
So I'm leaning to preferring walking across a predator like a cat or bear then having to deal with that rather than an unexpected man in the woods.
I'd take a black bear over a strange man for sure. Grizzly bears are scarier, but then again, a lot of men are scary and wily. I think once you get away from the grizzly it wouldn't bear a grudge and come back for you, but as we all know, unfortunately men will. For polar bears, maybe I'd choose the man.
Bears are not smart enough to carry a gun or machete
Bears are not smart enough to anticipate a face full of capsicum
Bears are scared of loud horns
On the flipside I am instinctively scared of bears and I would automatically go into panic mode if I saw one anywhere close to where I was and if it had noticed my presence. I would probably end up spraying it in the face with hot pepper.
I don't know who the man is, what he's capable of and what weapons he's carrying. The man could be anyone and since at least 40% of men have admitted that they would rape a woman if they could get away with it. Around 20% would commit violent rape. I'm plus sized and 35% of men are attracted to a chubby-fat woman, 12% prefer obese women. That gives me around perhaps 5-10% odds that I could be with a potential attacker. Just under 90% of people arrested for robbery are male (that doesn't even account for the fact that a lot of women are accomplices for a man). If I have my phone with me, which is a rather nice phone, how do I know that said man won't steal it from me? Plus all the cash and debit cards I could be carrying.
Not to mention all the other things that exist in the woods during summer, hornets, wasps, mosquitoes, gadflies, wild pigs, stags, snakes, spiders. I also have an unstable knee and ankles and I am physically unable to run and I can't walk very well on uneven surfaces. I think I would rather stay out of the woods.
Bear. Where I live, we only get black bears. They are not that large, and they tend to shy away from humans. Also any decent hiker knows basic black bear behaviour and can act accordingly when they encounter one.
Some random dude in the woods? Nah. I hike alone every once in a while, and I automatically go into hyper vigilant potential defense mode if I encounter a man in the woods. They are not predictable, and they could potentially try to do me harm for no reason. I'll take the bears.
A bear! Hands down!
Why?
A bear isn't going to rape me, trap me, or torture me. If a bear means me harm it's gonna slaughter me quick. How do I know this? Well it will either eat me cuz it's hungry or end what it thought was a threat. Either way it's going for an efficient kill. Men on the other hand might have other intentions and motives
Also, my experience has been, bears are just as afraid of me as I am of them. Men on the other hand, they aren't afraid of a tiny petite woman like me. They know if they use force, weight, strength, etc that they'll win unless I have a weapon to defend myself with
Nothing will change my mind on this subject

I said this for a long time. He's an Ahole but not a p-do. It seems like there is a witch hunt to lump him in that group and has been for a while. It's really sick what people do with the media tool
Yeah the dan schneider stuff was pretty mid. He's a misogynist with a high schooler sense of humor. Thinks it's hilarious to get subtle adult shit past censors (which isn't uncommon for kids shows, see Shrek). Toxic boss. Violated labor laws. None of this was new.
But definitely not a p-dophile. Seems like he got lumped in with the other two
I'm not going to deny Alexa Nikolas' experience but she's a bit of a grifter if you take one look at her channel.
Christy Carlson Romano had the best description for "Quiet on Set" she called it "Trauma tourism, these are people who are not part of the community, they add nothing to the community, they just want to gawk and exploit it."
This is a little off topic, but since we're talking about manipulative editing, I found it pretty off putting how during the Brian Peck episode, they kept dramatically cutting to pictures of him, almost like a jump scare. Especially because they acted like they were candid photos when a LOT of them were in character as (gag) Pickle Boy, who's whole shtick was being creepy
A character that he was voluntarily agreeing to play - he didn't have to do a bit part, and he was connected enough to say “no” to anything. And people like this who think they're too powerful to get caught, they love to “confess” through comedy, the innuendo was part of the appeal to him.
Its important to note that Alexa Nikolas was a disgruntled employee.
She was fired for feuding with Jamie Lynn on set. Of course her experience was toxic- she was fired.
Just watching her YouTube channel, she seems very unhinged & would likely accuse anyone of anything based on how you look at her.
She even went after lovable Matt Bennett for being a DJ using Nickelodeon songs.
"Disgruntled employee" bro she was a 13 year old girl
Yeah they also painted convicted felons as sympathetic victims, all while there's evidence this man is actively grooming a minor. Pathetic.
"Yeah they also painted convicted felons as sympathetic victims"
I mean, Reddit and X do this on a daily basis.
with face tatts doesn't understand why no one will hire her!!!!
