It is incredibly dehumanizing to exist in a system that sanctions constant calls for violence and death against you and yours, but where you are ruthlessly, vigorously suppressed, censored, and punished for saying you're willing to kill anyone who tries to kill you. Oppressed minorities in this country are expected to withstand endless threats of violence and death from the majority, and take it with a smile.

If we ever react, if we *ever* get angry, all of society rises up to suppress us.

How are we to feel fully human in such a system?

i once trolled a friend so hard in a co-op video game that he still talks and tells stories about it 13 years later, and it says something about my character that i'm bragging about it in public, i think (resident evil 5 co-op had this tedious quicktime event where you had to play moonlight sonata to lift a wall and reveal a secret passage. if you took any damage, even a single hit, you had to start over. and for some reason, teammate damage was included in that.)
