The point is not whether what triggers a PESD sufferer is true or not; it is why does it trigger them.
There's a current thread on here about Trump saying "I don't stand by anything" when having a heated discussion with a journalist. Did he say them? Yes. Did those that jumped all over them attempt to understand the context in which they were uttered? No. Has anyone here that where triggered by Trump's words given there opinion on another more public PESD sufferer throwing out homophobic phrases when trying to condemn Trump for these words? No.
I do appreciate that you guys have established your own little PESD support group. I hope you guys can work it out.
I didn't realize writing three words, "No shit, Sherlock," about Trump's quote meant I "jumped all over them" and would trigger an overreaction out of proportion to my original comment like a tiny little snowflake creating an emotional avalanche of angst which has now spilled over into another thread. You act as if you're pissed or PESD off about events since the election.
