If your post begins with “AITAH” I’m just gonna call it: Yes. Yes you are. This frame for storytelling is tired and full of unnecessary grievance-stoking. Its mere invocation is assholery.
There are better ways to reassure yourself. Maybe try some therapy or your actual IRL friends.

When you tell me you don’t like how a platform makes you “watch your words too closely,” what you’re telling me is you think you’re entitled to injure people and not be held accountable.

My takeaway from season 2 of “America’s Sweethearts” is fuck the Cowboys for not paying these women a living wage.
We need to stop socializing women to believe that a company making gobs of money off their labor has the right to underpay them, because they are doing a thing they love.
