Ngl I don't fully understand the point of content warnings in so many cases where the warning is equally as potentially triggering as the content itself.
I get it if the content of the post is actually worse, but in a lot of cases it's like, people already mention the same exact thing they're giving a warning for... by saying it in the warning. Example:
"CW: SA
They were sexually assaulted"tbh i find abbreviations to be fine for my PTSD, as a survivor of SV. sticking to abbreviations like SA and SV and nsfw tagging posts (hide nsfw in your profile) will help limit exposure. im a big proponent of NSFW tags and abbreviations to keep our more vulnerable users safe, though i would like to see more tags in the future and even tags for comments that can hide chains. i guess the abbreviations make it more clinical rather than personal for me.
spoiler
the slightly longer r word is very bad for me thoughOk that makes sense, in my head I honestly assumed an abbreviation or a euphemism for the word you're talking about in the spoiler would have the same effect, but I didn't think about how different words can be more striking.
