Your brain is not broken, actually. It sounds like what you are experiencing are the very normal and very crazy-making effects of capitalism.

I'm sorry you're going through what you are going through; you don't deserve it. You did a good thing, giving away things, taking a stand against abuse, and in return you got shat on. I'm so sorry this happened to you. Perhaps this is a small comfort, but maybe it is a comfort nonetheless: you are a good person, being eaten up by a violent world on fire. You did, here, the only thing that you can do as an individual in this situation, which is reach out to comrades and hope for an ounce of support.

All we have is each other, at the end of the day. Again, I'm so sorry you're going through this, but each day offers a new promise and a new hope. Never stop believing that a better world is possible. Solidarity forever.

This is an incredibly beautiful answer.

"Cops are workers too"

I deeply want this to happen. Not out of spite, but for uh feminism.

Correct, this is why they like Matthew Yglesias so much.
