It’s easy to roll one’s eyes as the self-serving dramatics of MAGA voters using false claims of victimhood as cover for their ugly views. But, as the threatening language in Greene’s tweet shows, this “woe is us” act is deeply dangerous. The hyperbolic conspiracy theories and dehumanizing language serve to convince Republican voters that religious liberty and democracy are simply values they can no longer afford to hold. The message is Christians are so “under siege” that the only way to fight back is by stripping everyone else of basic rights.
Thank you, i hope your experience can radiate to others so they won’t vote for hate. I also hope you find yourself on the other side of your abuse and living your best life. While i’m a trans woman i remember being a boy and my GF abusing me and not having support to get out of it.
It’s really scary and lonely feeling. I’m worried she’s going to take me for all I got and take the kids. Luckily my friends and family know she’s been doing this for years, so they’re on my side.
She verbally abused my oldest while I was kicked out telling him “you’re just like your f-ing dad” because they were listening to music together, and she didn’t like the song he was playing. He told me with tears in his eyes
My man. Get evidence of this kind of abuse if you can. Texts, videos, recordings of your kids. Statements from your family if they ever witnessed. She might be able to take your belongings, depending on where you live, but an abundance of evidence about her abuse could go a long way in insuring that she doesn’t take your kids.
Talk to a lawyer ASAP if you think that’s on the cards.
And lastly… I was the oldest kid in your situation some 20 years ago. My dad got custody of us but my mother took everything else. We lived in his truck for a short time.
I can tell you. It’s gonna hurt if it gets ugly. But it does get better. We were all better off without my mother.
I’m rooting for you, my guy. Know who your friends are and don’t be afraid to ask for help.
