This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Great example of how people get into abusive relationships. Imagine if OOP was less able to stand up for themselves.

Also, the irony of going to the UK because your family kicked you out for being trans~~fem~~.

And why are people even downvoting this post so much? Do they just hate reading a story about a trans person who is an asshole?

I think part of the downvotes are because there's really not a lot of humor in this story, it's just a sad story with no message or humour.

It definitely has a message IMO, it's a story about how governments shitting all over asylum systems and minorities promotes abusive relationships and also trans people are human and thus can be assholes just like every other group.
But I guess I can see how it doesn't deliver what most people expect from a greentext.

Yeah, there's enough content already on Lemmy that will make you miserable, notably the news.

I come to green texts to laugh at absurd takes from Anons.

I also don't get the downvotes, like being trans doesn't make you a good person or even progressive in any way...

And this is a really good story for a greentext IMO

I found a lot of people in this community seem to come here to essentially spit on others they want to look down upon, they can’t really do that here.

I know, but I guess I didn't read properly ...

Its not funny, just three horrible people who deserve each other.

What's horrible about the OOP? Other than OOP being a 4chan poster, the post doesn't really say anything that I'd describe as "horrible".

They anticipate that the other person is likely to commit suicide, and not only decide not to intervene but game how it can be turned to their material gain.
