      Sure, people lash out. Cool. Don’t give them a pass. Again, nothing in the post said you had to give them a pass for lashing out because you understand that their trauma caused them to lash out. Where are you getting that the post even remotely suggests this? What part of the post is this the other side of the coin?

        The part that’s bothering people is the “traumatized people can’t be responsible for other people’s comfort.” It sounds too much like “I’m sorry if my reaction made you uncomfortable, but I have trauma and so I’m not responsible.”

          If this was what was commented, I’d have a different argument and tone. But they were explicit in mentioning lashing out.

          We can discuss your statement, but I didn’t want to muddy my response with it.
