my least woke take is that most people who say they have emetophobia just have the normal human aversion to vomit, but want attention so they make a big deal about it. my most woke take is that i love therians and think they should be able to do whatever they want, they seem cool and happy.
I’ve got it and let me tell you it’s not fun and no reason to be quirky with it. Literally like staying in my room all day when my sister had food poisoning cause I was too scared to even be in the same house with her for fear of catching it. It’s not quirky and weird dude it sucks
guys i said most. as in not all. i have met several people who have a normal aversion to vomit and call it emetophobia and act like its a big thing but then dont have any actual issues with it when vomit happens. all of these people were teenagers at the time but still, i think a lot of the people online are just like, teenager bullshitting. im aware there is a very real very debilitating version of it.
im aware that of what emetophobia is, thats why i have this opinion. a lot of people i have encountered throw the term around like it means nothing. its a very real condition that causes real problems. but ive seen a LOT of people who have zero of those issues but still claim the title. like when people tell me, a person diagnosed with ocd, that they are "so ocd" because they like being organized, but they dont have any compulsions or anything.
You already know it! Geography as we use it in this country is a mechanism of settler colonialism. The imposition of property schemes, erasure of placenames, ecologically ignorant partitioning of land, and violence of upholding these systems dispossess indigenous people and physically imposes/maintains oppression of marginalized people. Fuck the railroads and smokey the bear can kiss my ass
