This board functions as an improvised grief ritual for an ambiguous, socially disenfranchised loss. The users express the felt death of a cultural or civilisational identity that has been given no funeral, no recognition, and no ending. The saturation of violent content operates as a vicarious trauma amplifier, and paradoxically, the closest thing the users have to a place of collective mourning. This is not standard bereavement. Ambiguous loss is grief without confirmation, a loss the culture at large refuses to certify as real. Mourning which does not end is melancholia. Anons who have fused their identity with 'the west is dying' are not describing an external event anymore. They have become the loss itself and leaving is erasing the self. This is why 'you are here forever' is not a joke, it is the actual mechanism of melancholia.Now add the gore and its desensitisation. Massacres, torture, stabbings, war footage and crime scene photos all repeatedly posted. Viewing such content produces trauma symptoms even when you chose to view it, even without personal danger, it is at least as damaging as being in physical proximity to it, some studies show it is worse. More exposure, more damage, like any other wound.So the board is two things at once. A vicarious trauma amplifier, manufacturing fresh injury with every thread. And, the only shared room available for a grief nobody else will host. No priest, no ritual, no elder to tell you how long the mournig is supposed to take. Just a thread, and strangers, and the same wound, described nine thousand different ways, forever.Consider that the ritual is the reliving itself. Not metaphorically, literally. The same killings, the same footage, the same names, posted again and again for years, treated as memory and mourned each time as though freshly discovered. That is not remembrance, which lets it recede. This is retraumatisation, the same wound reopened deliberately, indefinitely.

Consider that you do not want to leave because you enjoy the grief. Ending it would mean admitting the loss is smaller than the identity you built around it. Mourning eventually releases what you lost, everyone who has lost a relative knows this, but melancholia makes it part of the self. Anons here defending the board are refusing to move on because they cannot.
>>540861739Thank you therapistGPT

The anger so far is the predictable response. I named the defense mechanism directly, and this one holds their entire identity together. Your nervous system would likely recognise that as physical pain, amygdala firing. I have called you out directly. Repeated negative posts are expected.
Consider that the hostility itself is grief with nowhere else to go.
>>540862309Some people just don't have a sense of humor oi guessOr maybe, so fake and surrounded by gangrene fakeness they can't stand people expressing authentic feelings of suffering, even in small doses, pfftt
>>540861739Thank you, LLM slopper. We really needed this.If ChatGPT feels suicidal, does it contact a suicide helpline? Surely it's a failure in simulation if it does not.
>>540862558The 'it's just a joke' line is the most reliable exit from having to answer anything. There is publicly available linguistic analysis of millions of the posts here. You are not joking, nor have you ever been joking.
>>540861739i jerked it to your post. not that is was erotic, but just because I could. FYI you kiwi eating cunt :)
So true. THREAD THEMEhttps://youtu.be/6NArAxegClw
>>540862701Oops,So true. (See above)
Everything is a joke, until a black man stabs a white girl on a bus, then they ritualistically relive the trauma, according to the archive, multiple times per week. The emotion and grief in the replies tell us it is no joke.
>>540862326What are your thoughts on D-Notices and how the US population is being bumped full of social engineering propaganda. Smith-Mundt Modernization Act kicked it off to full speed meme warfare.
>>540862701I am always joking. Sometimes I am trans activist lefty fag, or MIGA tard depending on my mood,.
A particularly infamous individual that frequented this site and others like it, would persistently engage in the retraumatisation of himself and others, by posting the story of Ebba Akerlund. This has a long history here.
>>540862866It is a controlled release valve, a form of cointelpro and project verification bots. What is your point? All of this is known, what can you do? Nothing unless you want end up in prison cell or worse.

>>540863031Is coffee good for you?
>>540862887I do not know what those named things are. The US population was always being heavily socially engineered.
>>540861739ok, and?
>>540861739pilpul bullshit stopped reading after a sentence.
>>540863031In that, sometimes I am venting and riffing and etc and sometimes I am making fun of my own seriousness(Often just reacting to other people, out of sheer ..desperate... boredom)Not like you're ever going to get someone to hold your hand or offer constructive... anything here lolOr online in general, everThanks for posting thoughI can only imagine the ass crawling and pseudo intellectual bs that hordes of academics get paid to spew about this tiny, shitty, dead fucking board As I've said beforeYou pretend to be stopping RW terrorismAnd we pretend to be RW terrorists.
>>540863031It is the repetition that is harming you.

who let Capt Buzzkill in?i come here for the memes & shitposting
>>540861739>copy-pasting LLM contentMust suck to be someone who can't say anything intelligent or articulate without plagiarizing AI.You're still a retard, just now you're an embarrassing, pretentious retard
Notice the switch. In one comment they say how numb they are, that nothing shocks anymore. In the next post, watching it changes nothing, no effect, just information. Both cannot be true.
>>540861979This, modern White men are broken cuckold shadows of their forefathers. Just 100 years ago, Whites used to work hemp, iron, lead, and flame upon provocation, now they kneel and flee in the face of interlopers that maraud, desecrate, and ruin their lands.
>>540863357Unable to form a rebuttal, you switched to the perceived source of the argument instead of its content.
>>540861835I don't like Jews that play League of Legends, but that's only because they're Korean, not because they're Jewish. Does this make picrel good at making phones and bad at making cars? One has to wonder.
>>540863413That's the melancholia talking, not history, not fact. Consider what this anon has actually imagined, an idealised, violent ancestor invoked to shame the present self for not reenacting the same violence. That is grief.
>>540862169Why do people come here to tell us to leave while spamming horrible threads? Seems like not my problem
>>540863544I am not telling you to leave. I am only pointing out some uncomfortable truths. Unless you think I am wrong, anon?
>>540863614If you can't handle a little cyber bullying I don't know what you're doing here. That's kind of the deal. The funny part is it has shifted to the tourists and glowniggers
>>540863674Anon, what would give you the impression that I cannot handle it? Are you suggesting you are physiologically immune to the grey matter reduction and amygdala shrinkage caused by the viewing of violent content, and are you suggesting this because of the feelings of desensitisation, which are in fact symptoms of it?
>>540862326How would you characterize your own posting in this thread, psychologically speaking? What is the psychological need it illustrates? Or is that an uncomfortable truth you do everything to avoid facing?From my personal point of view, the first post is complete rubbish, btw. As in, it's not even remotely close to a description of my own state of mind.
>>540863772I just think "that person is fucked up so I shouldn't think about it"
>>540861739True. But you are clearly too smart for this board and seem to recognize the population cant even grasp that you said.So you have little reason to be here for long if you are not also enjoying the misery show in some way
>>540863447The loss it talks about is never named or quantified, so you can't even really call it an argument. Its really more of a bunch of vague, pretentious musings.Also, violence and gore is clearly what you fixate on (and then talked to the LLM about), it isn't that big of a part of the culture here unless you're an edgelord retard, so basing the musings around that says more about your own character and dispositions than it does about the board.The LLM (not you) is butting up against something real and worth saying here, unfortunately for you, you don't have the capacity to unlock it.Name the last three books you read and try to make it believable.
>>540863974The great thing about 4chaggler is breaking through the mirth
>>540861739>That is not remembrance, which lets it recede. This is retraumatisation, the same wound reopened deliberately, indefinitely.Gave it away as AI
>>540863811It was inspired by the information I gathered in the first. With an equally general claim that does not apply to everyone.>>540838711The characterisation of myself. Hm. Good question. I am circling a wound I see in others, openly. It is not a psychological need is to see if the claim holds up to scrutiny. Obviously I am not exempt of psychology but I am naming mechanisms and making falsifiable claims, there is no uncomfortable truth to that.
>>540863284I don't buy it. I've heard that people can get physically sick after commiting or even seeing even a very bad accident. My dad, for example, threw up after seeing someone die in a car accident. I've felt a stress response when seeing esp gruesome gore footage but never that extreme. Never felt even mildly nauseated?And seeing it more often produces desensitization or less adrenaline response. In fact, that's what I thought the danger was. You confuse the image with the reality and suddenly "your country going to war" or "people dying" serms old hat and inconsequential, doesn't seem as distressing as "I've seen that and it's not that shocking", etc, vs the more wholesome, if "naive" view of being automatically stressed and repulsed by all violence? Etc etcAt any rate yeah there's tons of sadness in the world me ACT mr DBT lol, but very little reason to talk about it online. Or really ever almost. What you focus on trends to get bigger. If you're sad, you're sadif you're not, ok, whatever that's fineDidn't matter either wayWe all die and human life will likely be snuffed out without aby of us escaping the oort cloud or even this planet, for longhttps://youtu.be/MzPECgrwjKE
Every night I pray to the ghost of Leopold II to come back and finish the job
>>540864030Oh I get it. You don't take amusement knowing someone is so obsessed with shitposts that they 24/7 spam the board
>>540863819And anon every time it does damage. To deny this is, bizarre. I can provide studies if you do not trust me.>>540863974Many posters here are very intelligent.>>540863990The loss is explicitly on the catalogue and in threads at all times. Anons reminding another anons of how over it is.
>>540864054Anon, unless you have an MRI you cannot prove the damage has not occurred. It is not something you feel, the brain has no nerves in there, you cannot feel your amygdala shrink.>>540864100It is more likely to be OCD.
>>540864187Yeah those shills definitely have a screw loose, or is it the money
