some plague rats posted:The source for the claim is apparently "Dissociative Identity Disorder: A Literature Review" from the Brigham Young University Undergraduate Journal of Psychology. Definitely interested in what some weirdo Mormon undergrad thinks! That's definitive! The 1.5% number is what's in the DSM-5. Thats what the literature review is citing. Idk why that's the source for Wikipedia, but that article is not lying about what the APA says. And, yeah, I didn't feel it necessary to put a lot of work into researching a commonly accepted statistic that I put out in the face of a ridiculous claim that 2 people in all of history have ever been diagnosed.

The 2 people thing seemed like a pretty obvious bit of hyperbole. Anyway we're done with that conversation because it was stupid and annoying,

We had a whole thread ages back about the 'married to Sephiroth on the astral plane' types, insane internet people still do what they do. Final Fantasy VII House and all. Just with different pop culture archetypes they latch onto because they're clearly not getting any real love and support at home.

Are the “this YouTuber is a literal person inside my brain” kids just picking up on mannerisms of streamers they watch several hours each day and think that actually makes them soul bound somehow instead of extremely common for anyone you see constantly in a (para)social setting?

It's one of those trends that makes me feel like the entire approach to social justice needs to be re-examined. I don't know if any amount of educating people about this stuff will ever actually help prevent it from happening. Like, hell, earlier this year I was having a long conversation with a friend of mine about exactly this subject: that is, that the language of social justice and accountability is extremely easy to abuse especially with how leftist organizations are often structured, and that people often weaponize it against people they simply don't like. Then just a few months later this same friend was heavily instrumental in drama of this exact nature, which ended with the person being targeted straight up leaving the city and the majority of the rest of the group quitting the project. How is the left ever going to accomplish anything if the basis of the community is an eagerness to fracture it as brutally and thoroughly as possible?

You pretty much have to un-teach everything these people learned from tumblr and start from first principles. A lot of this language and these communities were ultimately built on a foundation of bougie failkids looking for easy targets to gain cred, and that behaviour became the norm. If it's not COINTELPRO poo poo it's basically indistinguishable from it. See also the people who stopped using 'intersectionality' the moment someone brings up class.

It's also a way to spice up your engagement with a franchise and its fandom by doubling down on the make-believe aspect of it (see also "reality shifting", ie lucid dreaming aimed at a particular fictional setting, or neopaganism but with modern pop culture characters, etc.). If there's a problem with it, it's that using the language of actual disorders for these things and how it's ableist to think they're not real is contributing to the general conflation of fandom and politics that's endemic to modern social media.

If it's not COINTELPRO poo poo it's basically indistinguishable from it. I think it's even broader than that, since it's not just limited to tumblr kids, and some of these people are barely online. Like, over the last three years or so I watched a thirty year old community/project space go from two members (the only people left after a campaign of accountability tore the place to pieces and a dozen people left), to about a dozen members, and then back down to three who've driven out everyone with any institutional knowledge, got rid of almost all the resources the space had been accumulating, and now themselves don't really even want to live there and are reluctant to add new members. The space is under a lease directly from the government and if they can't pay rent it'll get shut down pretty much right away, so this really might just be the end of it. And over the course of those three years about two dozen other people came and went and there were another two miniature repetitions of the same pattern None of the wreckers were particularly online, and only one of them really came from a privileged/academic background. You're absolutely right that it's indistinguishable from COINTELPRO poo poo, though. These ideas have permeated the cultures within these spaces pretty thoroughly, though, and I don't really know what can be done about it Kit Walker has a new favorite as of 13:59 on Oct 7, 2022 |

Also a lot is simply an a idea that you are angry about these problems and want to do something about them, but the people with actual power are scary, so you obviously go after the easiest possible targets no matter if they're actually valid or there's anything to be gained.

The biggest issue is there's a poo poo ton of fetuses, especially in the queer community, who've grown up in a society that has, despite countless other issues and miles to go still, actually seen a lot of improvement in how sexuality, especially gender and sexuality based minorities, gets treated and have never had to live in a society where being gay was literally illegal or the like. Obviously that's great for them but it's created a kinda false view of the world without context and have become super fertile ground for the most sex negative people on earth to infect. It's the same reason you see the ~kink at pride~ discourse get really spicy on places like Tiktok when normally it was the domain of the social conservatives who hate queer people anyway, when you've grown up not having to fight your very existence being treated as a 'fetish' you're way easier to hornswoggle into mindlessly repeating 'if you draw a girl blushing you're horny and trying to gently caress' and the whole trying to tie any amount of queerness that isn't sexless tenderqueer poo poo to 'making things unsafe for children in the community'.

Kit Walker posted:I think it's even broader than that, since it's not just limited to tumblr kids, and some of these people are barely online. Yeah this is an issue that goes back decades in leftist activism. Groups like this attract intense and passionate people, some of whom see an opportunity to build personal power by weaponizing the language of leftist ideology and/or social justice. I dont think I've ever known anyone who's worked in activism or even liberal non-profits that doesn't have a thousand stories of wreckers trying to become king of the socialist book club or whatever. Ghost Leviathan posted:Also a lot is simply an a idea that you are angry about these problems and want to do something about them, but the people with actual power are scary, so you obviously go after the easiest possible targets no matter if they're actually valid or there's anything to be gained. Thats definitely true, its like the reason poor people steal from other poor people instead of the rich - its just who you have access to. But there are for sure people who cynically abuse this tendency for their own benefit and will often be the ones leading the outrage mob. As an aside, one the few actually good things about Twitter is that it gives more access to go after the people that deserve to be the targets of outrage, which of course they don't like at all
