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.

Please do not make a mirror copy of the forums in their current state - things will still change, and some people have requested to be able to edit or delete some of their personal info.

Re: The Meatrix

Seen it before, and IMHO it's standardized PETA bullshit.

(PS: I'm pro animal welfare (anti factory farm), but putting animals to the same standard as humans is a bad idea.)

Re: The Meatrix

Thanks for the comment and another thing, why would the PETA standardize animals towards humans?

Yes, They have. Just as much as the big-business pro-factory farm idiots. Use the Google.

What an incredible amount of fail.

Re: The Meatrix

It's really bullshit. If an animal doesn't want to defend itself we can kill it. If they DO defend themselves, same thing. It's all part of the food-chain. And since we're all animals, so is the founder of PETA *forms sick image in head*. Evillaugh Twisted Shooting Rocket Stabhead Thunder Whip

Re: The Meatrix

Wolf's right on this one. PETA may be insane, but that doesn't make all of their arguments wrong. I don't know about putting them on the same level as humans, but they can at least be killed humanely. There's no reason why they can't take two seconds to make sure a cow is actually dead before it's throw into the skinning machine. Come on.

I think Buenaventura Durruti is a pretty cool guy. eh kills fascists and doesnt afraid of ruins.

Well, that's called animal welfare, and that's the school of thought I agree with. Dairies should still milk cows, but they shouldn't keep them in cramped cages. Threat them humanely.

All vegetarians and vegans should consider themselves lucky. If dietary supplements didn't exist, natural selection would've killed them by now.

Natural selection doesn't mean things dying due to detrimental traits; it happens as a result of that. It's just basically a result of certain traits (in certain environments) making organisms more likely to die or otherwise less able to reproduce. Also, vegetarianism and veganism aren't, as far as I know, heritable, so they don't have a lot to do with natural selection in the first place.

More to the point, a vegetarian diet can supply all the necessary nutrients, although an unsupplemented vegan diet lacks vitamin B-12.

Re: The Meatrix

I will put animals on the same level as humans before I put PETA on the same level as humans...

Oh, and PETA should mean:
People
Eating
Tasty
Animals

Also, did you know Hitler had the same position as PETA? That "Animals are on same level as humans"? Unfortunately he also took it as "Humans are on same level as animals", and "Survival of the Fittest, to survive you must kill the unfit".

Re: The Meatrix

This shit is stupid. I can't believe how most of you have fuckin no compassion for these suffering animals. You can't say you stand for human rights and not stand for animal rights. Have any of you took any time to watch any undercover videos of the horrible, disgusting, fuckin murderous ways these animals are treated?!

If you ignorant idiots haven't, I'll provide you with some links:

1) A video about the mistreatment of chickens: http://www.goveg.com/factoryFarming_chickens.asp

2) Meet your Meat: http://www.goveg.com/factoryFarming.asp

3) Pig Farm Investigation: http://www.petatv.com/tvpopup/video.asp?...&Player=wm ........ (yes, I know it's PETA. I'll get to that after)

PETA is NOT a bad organization. I'm guessing none of you have ever looked into PETA. To be frank, I'm guessing most of you are Xbox 360 addicts who care about nothing else but winning the next level.

In fact, PETA is one of the less radical animal rights groups. If you want to talk about radical, look up "The Animal Liberation Front," (The ALF) or, "The Animal Rights Militia."

The ALF's philosophy is to try to cause as much economic damage to the animal-abusing company as they can. They break into factory farms and rescue animals, they've burned down some leather stores, and many other things of the type. Their one HUGE rule is this: "No one can get hurt. No person and no animal." So, obviously, when they do these things, they do it when they are sure no humans are inside.

The Animal Rights Militia is very different from the ALF in ONE way: They throw away the ALF's one rule. They think it is OK to cause harm to someone who is abusing animals. They don't actively search for people to kill or hurt, but if the owner of a fur store is inside, they aren't gonna wait till he leaves to damage the building.

On the OTHER HAND, PETA is entirely different. They use non-violent and non-damaging resistance. They start boycotts and protests. For some strange reason, people are under the impression that PETA is like, some crazy radical propaganda machine. No. And if you still think that, then pay more fucking attention. Did you fuckin read what I just wrote about those other groups??! You can't put down PETA.

Anyways, nothing will ever change if there is no one protesting, or doing any activism. It's JUST LIKE WE SAY ON HERE ABOUT YOUTH RIGHTS

I'm sorry about the angry tone I wrote with before. But, cmon friends, let's try to open our minds a little!

Carnivorous animals kill other animals because it's their instinct, dumbass. They kill them because they need to. They are made to eat meat. Their bodies can't live off of fruits and vegetables. We, of course, don't require meat, as shown by the large amount of vegetarians on Earth.

I don't really think we don't require meat. Sure, you can live without it, but you are depriving yourself of vital nutrients, and some good eatin's. Biggrin

I'm not even going to begin attacking this argument. People like you make me lose faith in humanity.

Actually, I think I will begin arguing: you say we don't require meat. Then why is it that we can only get vitamin B12, an essential vitamin, from meat products (and vitamin supplements, but I don't count those, because they weren't around when cavemen were alive)? Why do we have canines to tear into flesh? Why is meat on the food pyramid if it doesn't matter?
And all those vegetarians you say are proof that we don't need meat? They need vitamin supplements because their diets lack proper nutrients! What do you think would happen if a caveman were to go on a vegetarian diet? He'd probably die within a few months.

Again, people like you make me lose faith in humanity.

Then why is it that we can only get vitamin B12, an essential vitamin, from meat products (and vitamin supplements, but I don't count those, because they weren't around when cavemen were alive)? Why do we have canines to tear into flesh? Why is meat on the food pyramid if it doesn't matter?
And all those vegetarians you say are proof that we don't need meat? They need vitamin supplements because their diets lack proper nutrients! What do you think would happen if a caveman were to go on a vegetarian diet? He'd probably die within a few months.

Again, people like you make me lose faith in humanity.
Agree.
Although I disagree with vegetarianism and even more so veganism (they are different), attack the lifestyle, not the person.

woah dude

What's dangerous about you vegetarians isn't the fact that you live on horrible, nutrient-lacking diets - it's how you see anyone that isn't a vegetarian.

I'm not a caveman. I assume that you aren't either.
