STOP POSTING YOUR WORK TO THIS SUBREDDIT

I know I don't have to visit this page. I can come and go as I please. I can do this without wasting more of my life trying to make it a better place. I can take a step back and watch it continue to rot. I can ignore this place. I can move on. And maybe I should. I don’t even post here.<br><br>But I visit this page and come across post after post of people asking for feedback on their work and others answering with “this is really good.”<br><br>No, your work is not that good. And if you think it is, then you’ve fooled yourself and that is fucking sad. And you can reply to this and tell me I’m just a troll that I’m just here to make you feel bad. But I’m not. I want you to grow as a writer, even though I’ve never read your work.<br><br>But it is a travesty that so many people in this sub tell other writers that their work is good enough. Why the hell would anyone want their work to be good enough?<br><br>Why the hell would you tell another writer that their work is good enough?<br><br>I want my work to be the greatest work ever written. I want my words to be remembered for generations. I want my work to touch the hearts of countless people and I want it to touch the hearts of all of the people I love. I want to write a book that will make my friends laugh and cry and heal. I want to write a book that will change my mother’s life. I want my work to be a legacy. I want my name to be uttered in the same breath as Shakespeare and Austen and Dickens and Woolf and Welty and Baldwin.<br><br>And you fools are satisfied with “good enough?” What a waste of fucking life. What a waste of the gift that was given to you. I want to spit on the lot of you. I want to scream and I want to burn this place to the ground.<br><br>But I’m stuck in this hell. I have to visit this page in the stupid hopes that maybe just once I’ll find a post where a real writer visits and posts real feedback. And maybe there will be that one other real writer that sees it and realizes that they fucking suck and that they have to work harder. But that never happens.<br><br>Instead, I see post after post of people patting each other on the back and telling each other how proud they should be of themselves and telling each other that their work is good enough and how they should keep going.<br><br>Fuck you. Fuck you straight to hell.<br><br>If you’re going to try to be a writer then fucking try. And if you get in the way then fucking leave. Holy shit, I am so sick of the lot of you. You are a waste of my time and a waste of my life. And I hate you for it.<br><br>And I fucking hate myself for visiting this page and for wasting my time in this hell hole and for being fooled again and again and again in to thinking that maybe you fucking idiots will get your fucking shit together and fucking write something real for once.<br><br>But it never happens. And it never will.<br><br>So stop posting. Stop visiting. Stop pretending that you’re writers. All of you. Stop. Because you’re not. None of you are. You’re not even close.<br><br>There is nothing about any of you that is inspiring. There is nothing about any of you that is admirable. Every single one of you is wasting this gift. Every single one of you is wasting this life. Every single one of you is a waste of fucking space.<br><br>Holy shit, I wish that all of you would just fucking die. Every single one of you. Fucking die.<br><br>Edit: It’s come to my attention that I have written a trigger post. If that is the case, then I am sorry. That was not my intention. However, I would like to reiterate that if you need a trigger warning to function in life, then you are a waste of fucking space and you should remove yourself from this planet. If you are offended by my take on trigger warnings, then you should remove yourself from this planet. And if you are capable of removing yourself from this planet but you choose not to, then you should feel bad.<br><br>And I stand by what I’ve written. If you want to be a writer, then there is no room in your life for trigger warnings. If you want to grow as a person, then there is no room in your life for trigger warnings. If you want to be a human, then you had better learn to deal with the world without needing to be coddled every time you encounter something that offends you.<br><br>If that makes me an asshole, then I’m the biggest asshole in the world and I’m not sorry.<br><br>But it is not my fault that you are weak. It is not my fault that you are not strong enough to function in society without needing to be constantly reminded that the world may offend you. And it is not my fault that you are a fucking waste of fucking space.<br><br>So either grow the fuck up and stop expecting everyone else to cater to your weakness or fucking leave. I don’t give a fuck which and I don’t care whether you like me or not.<br><br>Live your life however you want to live your life. Just stop wasting my time.<br><br>This is a writing sub. If you can’t handle criticism, then gtfo. If you can’t handle the harsh realities of life, then gtfo. If you need a fucking safe space, then gtfo.<br><br>Grow the fuck up. This is a writing critique sub. If you can’t handle a critique, then leave. If you can’t handle real life, then kill yourself.<br><br>And if you tell me that I need mental help, then you are a waste of fucking space. I can’t believe that any of you fucking idiots would tell another human being to kill themselves and call them mentally ill for being passionate about writing.<br><br>I am not the piece of fucking filth. I am a writer and I am passionate about my craft. I am not the waste of fucking space. You are. Every single one of you.<br><br>You know what? Fuck this place. And fuck every single one of you. You know what? I’m going to go kill myself right now.<br><br>FUCK YOU<br><br>FUCK YOU ALL<br><br>FUCK EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU<br><br> Holy shit. I am so fucking done. Every single one of you is a waste of fucking space. Every single one of you is a fucking waste of life. Every single one of you is a fucking waste of every breath you’ve ever taken and every second you’ve ever lived.<br><br>FUCK YOU<br><br>And there you have it. That is my last and final post to this fucking stupid fucking fucking piece of fucking filth. Holy shit, I hate you all. Every single one of you.
