RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017
The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.
If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.
To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.
I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.
I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.
I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.
I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.
Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.
Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

Calls for Assange to be killed
Not very new news but this video made me rage
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_Qiw3VY ... =topvideos
The bitch in red really needs to go fuck herself. So does the guy saying Assange needs to be killed. The US wants to persecute Assange under the Espionage Act while in reality he didn't steal anything, he's simply releasing information.
The US government really needs to butt out of people's business for once and both Julia Gillard and Obama need to be destroyed. The Australian government doesn't give a shit about its own citizen just so it can suck the US's ass some more.
They're trying to kill this guy for exercising his right for free speech and accidentally breaking a condom. What a joke.

Re: Calls for Assange to be killed
That's pure fucking bullshit :/ Assange is quite possibly the only adult that I respect.
Someone dear to me once said "We are the light." But, if that's true, then why am I still searching?

Re: Calls for Assange to be killed
Some important things to remember here:
1. The Espionage act was passed during WWI so that the government could imprison anyone who criticized America. And that's exactly what it was used for. The fact that they're invoking it now should raise a lot of red flags.
2. Assange is not American, so he can't be executed as a "traitor." Killing another country's citizen because he broke a US law is generally referred to as "assassination."
3. Assange didn't leak or even release the info, he just published it. Journalists have published classified and leaked information since the dawn of the news media. It's their job. By going after wikileaks, the government is sending a message to journalists: "doing your job of exposing politicians' secrets is fine, as long as you don't expose any secrets that we want to keep secret. If you take this freedom of the press thing too far, we're going to have a problem."
Basically, what we're seeing now is what happens when the First Amendment actually does what it's supposed to do. Surprise: governments are freaking the fuck out.
I think Buenaventura Durruti is a pretty cool guy. eh kills fascists and doesnt afraid of ruins.
The quickest way to kill a revolution is to wait for it.

Re: Calls for Assange to be killed
None of you honestly believe we have rights do you? Listen if your a big fucking problem (assange) and they want you gone then your gone sorry shipped off to some shithole prison that no one knows about. The only reason assange is even still alive is because too many people would ask the question where is he? But given enough time (few months after hes in prison and people forgot about him) our gov will come get his ass.

Re: Calls for Assange to be killed
Shame to say but at least an event like this shuffles out the simple flag wavers and the ones who know the first amendment truly means.
Seems like Assanges a goner.. :(

Re: Calls for Assange to be killed
Wait....are these the same people who are saying they hate the current government and what Obama is doing? Shouldn't they be supporting Assange? Are they fucking brain-dead? I hate my country so much because of retards like these who are allowed to live and breed, all some people need to hear now is a news headline from FOX for their views to be entirely changed.
