I actually listened to all 2 hours of the pod because I'm aware they used that clip go draw people in so I was gonna see how taken out of context it was.
I think that she has every right to speak out about any trauma that was done to her and call out her abusers. And there are a handful of toxic people in the community but I feel that over all the pod was a trauma dump, but also she really demonized the community as a whole.
Like any kink it's consensual, at any point she could have said it wasn't for her. More to the point death feedism is only one thing under the umbrella, not everyone shares that or wishes for it, so putting it out that way makes it seem like that's the meat and potatos of feedism, which it's not.
I get what you are saying, but is that really on her? Because, from where I sit, that's on the podcast owners.
Sure, we know that feedism isn't inherently good or bad. But if someone was severely hurt by the community, can we reasonably expect them to have a more nuanced, empathetic view? It would be nice if they did, but I don't think most people are like that.
Instead, I think it's on the podcast's owners to do their due diligence and present a more balanced take. They could have had anyone on the podcast, but they chose someone who is not active in the community or identifies as a feedist. They could have very easily found someone, but they didn't.
