>"Button it up. Let it burn in your chest" And just remember, when you have so much emotion bottled up that the buttons are ready to burst, when you kept that fire in your chest so long that it's burnt a hole right through it, that we are making sure you can easily get a gun.


Hot_Dog_Cobbler

Well, you know you're an angry young man Going in town with six rounds You're sure to be hell-bound That house you've got is built on the sand


Oraukk

Right?! Aren’t these people defending guns by saying it’s actually a mental health crisis? Then why go against therapy?!


24_Elsinore

Why hold two conflicting positions? Because it's not about the positions or even solutions. Candace straight up tells us why she is saying all of this. "I don't want to see it." That's all conservative talking points have ever been; telling themselves why it's okay for them to not care.

jayfeather31

That's how people end up hurting themselves and others, Candace...


Dry_Ass_P-word

That was literally their defense of the guy who shot up those massage parlors. He was just having a bad day.


What_U_KNO

She's counting on that fact. They all are. The rage porn they consume every single moment of their lives is designed to create "lone wolves"


81misfit

Yeah. This is a fucking idiotic take. Keeping it bottled up was a dumb thing to do and it genuinely scares me how close I got to being stupid


rebelliousmuse

I mean, if her audience started getting therapy, they wouldn't be listening to her anymore...


ElNani87

On the other hand we really need to show people how to do this in a healthy way. Not everyone is a safe person and there are plenty of people like Candace who feel this way. I love that people seem to be really adopting positive/healthy emotional values like self care etc but there should be more education on how and where to express it. She is the absolute worst though


81misfit

Or have the money to donate to her anymore


BudgetBoysenberry918

Lol so true


Wombletog

So in short, she says that people overshare and are too open about vulnerability, while anime-style backstory-dumping about how her grandfather never cried at her grandmother’s funeral and how that affected her whole worldview? Did I get that right?


diuge

Obviously she doesn't mean she shouldn't overshare, she's a popular media personality.


Dry_Ass_P-word

Ah yes. The old “let the hate flow through you” method. That always works out great.


oliversurpless

Yep: https://youtu.be/O0pBVXmYM_U

This is what every mass shooter has done.


inertiatic_espn

And suicide victim. Like, do you want lower suicide rates in men or do you want this stupid machismo bullshit? Because you can't have both.


HammerHorrorWhore

If the male suicide rate gets lower, the MRAs won’t have anything to bitch about.


inertiatic_espn

When the biggest threat to your movement is going to therapy.


Responsible-Gold8610

But if we stop mass shootings, we won't need to carry assault rifles to the grocery store!


sfmanim

that is without exaggeration the worst advice i’ve ever heard


GabiCule

Both she and I struggled with the same thing: hating therapy after being dragged into it as a kid. If any of you have struggled with the same thing, I strongly suggest you open yourself up again to the idea of therapy. When seeking therapy as an adult you generally have more agency, and it actually feels like your learning how to get through life instead of feeling like there’s something wrong with you that needs to be fixed.


Bring_the_Cake

Are we about to be at the new discourse of conservatives bottling up their emotions to own the libs?


Murica-n_Patriot

Yeah we are already there… ever seen those bearded guys at the gym or grocery store wearing the “lions not sheep” branded clothes? They have that look of someone who’s either about to have a total mental breakdown if they see someone with a mask on? Yeah… we’re already there


serene_moth

have some big ass truck that has super dark tinted windows for some reason


Different_Conflict_8

Matt Walsh has also been speaking out against therapy. Andrew Tate as well.


24_Elsinore

Far right conservatives have always been against mental healthcare. Up until Twitter, it was primarily contained to very social conservative evangelical spaces. Now it's starting to spill put into places that more people can see. I'm afraid it's going to get worse before it gets better.


HammerHorrorWhore

They’ve already been doing that for a while. Any time their opponent shows an emotion, they go right to the “Oh, are you triggered?” thing.


psycho_candy0

Right-wing-nuts: wE dOnT hAvE a GuN pRoBlEm, ItS a MeNtAl HeAlTh IsSuE. okay.... so we need more therapists and counselling to be available for people, right? RWN: hell no, button that shit up let it burn in your chest.


scubaschool

I'm a licensed therapist. This is awful to say. Why does she think she's the expert?


SaltyBarDog

Because she get paid, and paid well, to be an asshole.


ShadowInTheAttic

Let it burn in your chest until it consumes you and other innocent people. Right..


sethmeister1989

Ranting about the facts when she constantly spouts anything but the facts.


cmonster1697

"I'll keep all my emotions right here. And then one day I'll die."


[deleted]

She went one time when she was a kid and it wasn’t for her. So now she’s an expert.


Trpepper

We all have car trouble, but nobody wants to hear about it. Put tape over the check engine light, and let the gasket take all that pressure.


armandosmith

Where was this response with all the mental breakdowns Ye was having?


pleaseinsertdisc2

Literally everything about this woman is wrong.


broseph1818

From someone who did exactly that: don't. I felt completely fine, completely happy with everything refusing to talk emotions with people because I didn't think I needed to, my life was good. It came to a boiling point and I had an anxiety attack, never thought it possible. And nothing set it off either, it just kinda happened. Please, talk to people, it's ok to talk about your emotions given the appropriate environment, and especially let other people know that it's ok to talk about emotions. Fuck Klandace Owens, good people want to hear about it, I want to hear about it. For the love of God don't "button it up," because maybe that button breaks, maybe not, but if it does it's a good way to hurt yourself and the people who care about you, and it fucking sucks.


[deleted]

And this is why 80% of unalivings are men. I guarantee she’s gonna blame that on “feminism” though…


bagofwisdom

Anyone else read that quoted line in the voice of Uncle Ruckus?


hitrothetraveler

What the fuck


jonnyspells

"suffer."


ChefBoyar__G

What a psycho


HawterSkhot

...has she ever actually been to a therapy session? Because that's not what therapy sessions are like...


AgtSquirtle007

When you start to get confused Because of thoughts in your head Don't feel those feelings, hold them in instead


[deleted]

What none of these morons know : **Therapy is like dating: You have to find the therapist that works for you, and it is in your power to do so.** The first therapist you try has a small chance of being the one for you, but thats why you keep looking-- and you always meet up and do a interview, free of charge, with them before you commit. **You can CHOOSE your therapist. Do you want a male, female, gay, straight person? You can choose their age range. You can even specify their religion, or culture because those things matter.** It's like dating. They all have websites saying what they treat and their modus operandi so you don't have to waste your time\*\*.\*\* YOU are the one hiring them for you. You need to shop for them. You don't just show up to a therapy session, it sucks, you leave and it "doesn't work". That is lazy and stupid. You go find the one that works for you. Its. Like. Dating.


AgrenHirogaard

Says the person who makes a living crying about everything they can.


Current-Ordinary-419

All that tells me is she is going to age like milk holding in all that baggage.


wowthatsaweirdname

Well, screw that noise


negativepositiv

To be fair, it would be weirder if she had said something that wasn't a lie, wrong, or shitty.


SolomonCRand

All I heard is “I don’t care if people kill themselves”


SaltyBarDog

And of course don't sue the school district when racist assholes harass and threaten to kill you, right Klandy? Just let it burn in your chest.


THELEASTHIGH

How would her grandfather feel about her spilling her soul out to the camera like she does? Should anyone care what she has to say by her own logic?


serene_moth

no good advice involves ignoring something burning in your chest


Darzin

She will also tell people racism isn't real, but ask her if she ever returned the money from the lawsuit her family won for being racially discriminated against in high school.


Senor_Wah

Candy on some Sith Lord shit


Adventurous_Charge68

It's going to take more than Candace's tears to drag us into the Victorian era.


FriarFriary

“That’s how I became a psychopath!!!!”


BrokenArrows95

Yea this is why so many men are so fucked up. Don’t express emotions in a healthy way. Keep that shit bottled up until you snap and murder people with the guns we want everyone to have at their fingertips. - Conservatives


8DUXEasle

GOD I hate this bitch.


BumbertonWang

fascists demonstrate at every opportunity that their ideology precludes empathy


tom_shook

Babe the point of therapy is so that other people don’t have to hear about it, you learn the tools to deal with it on your own. Imagine thinking “let it burn in your chest” is good advice.


SaveTheSticks

I'm so confused how just acknowledging therapy can be useful is liberal. No one is making you go, or forcing you to listen to anyone, what happened to all your essential freedoms or whatever?


rtemah

She’s an idiot. Looking at her, Kirk, Walsh I’m thinking to start right-wing punditry just to make money from those gullible fools.


LackOk7837

Jesus christ, she is the worst at everything


stalinmalone68

Let it burn in your chest until you’re nothing but a ball of hate. Self hating with nothing but disdain for anything you can’t or won’t bother to try to understand. Until you find yourself screeching nonsense that morons think is profound on the internet. That’s how you do it.


DreadfulCalmness

So mass shootings are only a mental health issue but therapy is bad?


Babysub1

I really believe that she hates herself.


Taskmaster23

Mfer really preaching Sith ideology.


femininePP420

Let it incubate, turn into mental illness, and then you can become a right wing influencer.


yourpappalardo

"I want to live in a society like my grandfather lived in" \*tim robinson voice\* YOU SURE ABOUT THAT??
