BetterHelp is so bad even the Wall Street Journal criticizes them:

CW: homophobiaAfter Caleb Hill told his parents he was gay, he was kicked out of the house. He had been taught, growing up in a conservative Christian household in Tennessee, that his attraction to men was a grave sin.

Feeling isolated and depressed a few months later, Mr. Hill, then 22, thought therapy might help. He had heard podcast ads for BetterHelp, a company that provides therapy remotely and promises “a personalized therapist match that is tailored to your preferences and needs.”

His biggest concern was he missed his family. The therapist he was given, he says, recommended he try to stop being gay so he could go back to them. “He said if I chose to go back to who I was and deny those feelings, he could get me where I needed to be,” Mr. Hill said.

Mr. Hill had requested an LGBTQ+ therapist, a screenshot of his intake form shows. BetterHelp gave him one who didn’t specialize in LGBTQ+ issues, according to the provider’s profile on its website, and whose personal website says he practices Christian counseling.

I'm so fucking sick of this crybully shit where just because something bad has happened to you means you now have a pass to commit unspeakable atrocities pain it's some of the most emotionally-draining rhetoric to deal with

you say we "shouldn't kill every last palestinian and wipe the gaza strip off the map and then do the nakba even harder, what the fuck, that's an absolutely unhinged thing to clamor for"

Even if the made up things were true, they would objectively be at worst retaliation for atrocities committed by the settlers, so it's absolutely beyond belief that everyone just accepts the framing of Israeli victimhood.

None of this violence would have occurred if it were not for the settlers. No matter what else, that will always remain true.

Jesus fucking Christ. And the US calls these mother fuckers an ‘ally’ and gives them $3 billion a year to continue their genocide.

Fuck.
