Abusers are natural public relations pros. Experts at spin. Expert at narrative. Experts at painting themselves as the victims even as they do immense damage w/more than enough evidence to prove that they’re absolute pieces of shit.

And if it’s not “defamation,” it’s “harassment.” All while these same abusers are ACTUALLY defaming and harassing their victims into silence, implementing every dirty trick in every dirty playbook to do it. And people wonder why I do comms strategy for survivors. This is why.

I just made the decision to mute anyone doing twitter style "what are you doing to help?" Style musing for pride

A - social media bragging culture is bad opsec

B - those posts have no actionable advice. They're just guilt farming

C - I hate reading ally book reports about nice things they do

War Crime: “Indians Poisoned at Peace Meeting.”

This concerns a little-known act of colonial duplicity: A mass poisoning carried out by the English in 1623 as part of an attempted assassination of the Pamunkey leader Opechancanough.
