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.

Walmart refuses to bake Confederate flag but bakes ISIS cake

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-...esign.html

This newspost was originally made on June 29, 2015

Quote:Walmart has been forced to apologize after it apparently agreed to bake an ISIS-themed cake for a Louisiana customer - just a day after refusing to create a Confederate battle flag cake for him.

Chuck Netzhammer submitted a request for a cake featuring a photo of the Confederate flag, with the slogan 'Heritage Not Hate' printed across it, to his local Walmart store in Slidell on Thursday.

The store reportedly denied his request, which was made just a week after the Charleston, South Carolina, church massacre. Bakery staff wrote 'cannot do cake' on Netzhammer's submission.

The following day, Netzhammer handed in a second cake request - this time, for a baked creation featuring an iced version of the Islamic State's black and white flag - to test the store's convictions.

Incredibly, Walmart reportedly baked and iced the terror group-themed cake.

On Friday, Netzhammer took to YouTube to express his disbelief at the store's actions.

'Alright, Wal-Mart, you’ve got some explaining to do. I went to go buy a cake from you all the other day with this image on it and y’all wouldn’t do it,' he says in a video he later posted to the site.

'I went back yesterday and managed to get the ISIS battle flag [cake instead].'

In the caption written below the video on YouTube, the angry customer adds: 'ISIS is beheading Christians, selling little girls into slavery, and is currently a terrorist org at war with the United States........but you can't buy the General Lee toy car at Wallmart? It's a damn shame.'

Walmart spokesman Randy Hargrove told the Daily Caller that the store had 'made a mistake'.

'The cake in the video should not have been made and we apologize,' he said, explaining Walmart had 'made the decision to stop selling Confederate flag-related items promoting the flag's image'.

He added: '[Netzhammer] brought in the other image of ISIS and really, what happened, was our associate didn’t recognize what that image was and what it meant or it wouldn’t have been made.'

In the video, Netzhammer also posed with the ISIS cake and showed off his bakery receipts.

During the massacre at the historically black Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church on June 17, 21-year-old Dylann Roof, from Shelby, North Carolina, allegedly shot dead nine people.

These included the senior pastor and state senator, Clementa Pinckney.

Roof had visited some of the South's most notorious slave plantations and Confederate landmarks in the months leading up the killings, and had taken photos of himself holding the Confederate flag.

Since the massacre, goods associated with the flag have been taken off sale by many retailers.

That isn't even the real confederate flag, and it's ridiculous that Wal-Mat didn't make a modified version of the popular, but not actual CSA flag cake, yet they fucking made an ISIS flag cake.

Here's the real Confederate flag:

It's from this page on Wikipedia, by the way.

RE: Walmart refuses to bake Confederate flag but bakes ISIS cake

With all the going-on about the Confederate battle flag in the news lately, it would have been completely retarded from a PR viewpoint for Walmart to make that cake. This recent media activity also makes it more likely that any given bakery worker at Walmart would recognize the symbol and see what trouble it might cause. I don't know if everyone is quite as familiar with the ISIS flag, at least not to where it would immediately set off alarms to anyone looking at it. And, of course, Walmart is not one person, so it could just have been a difference between the employees handling the requests.

So, looking at the cake in the article, it's just the ISIS flag; i.e., some Arabic writing. This might look like random bullshit to the unfamiliar, or if they recognize it as Arabic or think it may have something to do with them bad guys in the news, they may even steer away from saying anything about it to avoid any "sensitivity" incidents.

Regardless, this is a pretty severe case of mistaken priorities.

Well, I heard about this earlier this year, but it still scorches my mind. Just like when TV Land pulled the Dukes of Hazzard.

They don't blame citizens for what they do, they blame an inanimate object. With Columbine, Virginia Tech, Sandy Hook, did they blame the shooters? Hell to the fuck no. They blamed the gun, because a gun could TOTALLY kill by itself.

With Charlestown, did they blame that shooter? Hell to the fuck no. They blamed the fucking flag! I mean, for christ sake, the Confederate flag DOES NOT mean hate and white supremacy.

It's all propaganda. It's a thinly veiled attack on the Constitution, this whole situation. With the gun blaming, and now this. I hope more people see past the bullshit these government officials and 'activists' lay out and see this as an attack on our rights and the Constitution.

And, by the way, that's the wrong flag. The flaag he tried to get imprinted was the one on top of the General Lee, with the words 'Heritage Not Hate' in the middle of it.

Like this: http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/images/u/us-csah.gif

Thank you for your time.

No, he means the real official flag of the Confederacy was the one he posted above, whereas the one people remember is the one on the General Lee.

And that's the thing - personal accountability is dead. The government, the media, society as a whole... no one will ever blame the individual for the individual's crimes as long as something - anything - can be used to explain it away.

I agree. Blame the shooters. Adam Lanza killed those kids (and his mom, and later himself) at Sandy Hook, with an inanimate object called a gun. The gun did not kill the kids... Adam Lanza did.

Same goes with the Columbine and Virginia Tech shootings.

So it was Adam Lanza's guns. Or the internet. But it wasn't him.
