- appreciatorBus 9mo agoCareful now - by pointing out fraud you’re inflicting a moral injury on a vulnerable population. Of all the marginalized groups, surely the criminal is the most marginalized and thus the one most worthy and valuable in the progressive stack.

- nis0s 9mo agoI just worry about people abusing the term moral injury in the same way that they abuse other terms related to mental health issues, like trauma or PTSD. For clarity, this is a reasonable checklist for putting traumatic experiences in context https://www.ptsd.va.gov/professional/assessment/te-measures/life_events_checklist.asp https://www.ptsd.va.gov/professional/assessment/te-measures/... Or this one for adverse life events, https://sparqtools.org/mobility-measure/adverse-childhood-experiences-ace/ https://sparqtools.org/mobility-measure/adverse-childhood-ex... Everyone is different in how they cope, but that doesn’t invalidate the need to have useful measures to contextualize difficult experiences.
