What? How does this even make sense? Seriously, what kind of harassment can a 13 year old inflict on an ADULT on a BLOGGING PLATFORM that even remotely is like this? I’m legit curious, as an adult, what can a kid do that is this upsetting on this crappy website?
Okay, I’m just going to assume you’re actually asking for information, and answer that.
Suicide-baiting.
Telling dozens to hundreds of people that the adult is a “pedophile”, or “rapist”, or whatever else.
Harassing messages.
Harassing messages to their friends.
Malicious gossip in general.
(Also, keep in mind: 17 years and 364 days is still a minor too.)
I mean, seriously. Imagine that you’re an adult CSA survivor who’s still in heavy therapy and suicidal a couple days a month minimum, and then for two months straight every single day you see people telling other people that you’re “a pedophile” because you disagreed with them about something, once. Plus multiple death threats, occasional rape threats, and suicide-baiting every fucking day.
You seriously think that wouldn’t be upsetting? I promise you, most of the CSA survivors I know get pretty upset at just one completely inaccurate accusation of pedophilia, and I’ve seen people get dozens-to-hundreds.
I’ve seen teenagers wait until someone just got out of the hospital after being hospitalized for becoming intensely suicidal due to a bad medication side-effect to actively call for other people to “send hate to” that user, and then startt suicide-baiting them.
I’ve seen teenagers accuse rape victims of being rapists, CSA survivors of being pedophiles, and so on. Sometimes on purpose, sometimes because they just don’t fucking care whether it’s true or not, they just want to hurt someone and don’t care how.
I’ve had a friend hospitalized by this shit. Like, they were in a psych ward for two or three weeks. Awesome person, doing school stuff to become a social worker so they can make life better for trans people with mental illnesses who would like to have people get their fucking pronouns right in therapy or psych care or something. Super cool person. What do “minors” do? Harass them. I don’t even think it was for anything they specifically did, just because they happened to interact with someone the kids were mad at.
So, what kind of harassment can a 13-year-old inflict on an adult? The same kind anyone else can, which is constant emotional abuse, both direct and indirect. Which is pretty effective on nearly everybody.
