>>seems like a crime forum where talk of systemic corruption and racketeering's' impacts on me are denied, negating my experience.

To take your analogy, a "crime forum" could be many things. If it was a research and educational forum, the topics you mention would be very appropriate. If it was a community forum with people who work in the criminal justice system, those topics might also likely be welcome. But if it was a forum for victims of criminal abuse, then discussions of corruption might trigger them severely when they are there looking for support and suggestions. It is likely that victims would want suggestions as to how to make the system work for them, not essays on why the system can't and won't be able to work for them because it is corrupt.

To take it to a more subtle level, maybe some victims of crime might need the type of support that includes exposing corruption to validate their fears and concerns. Others may need comforting and support and positive suggestions and advice. A person requiring the second might be horribly triggered by discussions about the first. For them, it would be "safe" to find a community that prohibits discussions about corruption, so that they can express themselves safely. People who find a valid need to discuss about corruption are best served finding a community that fits their needs, not trying to change the conservative forum to fit their needs at the expense of the comfort of others.

I do hope you find the support you need. I am not in any way trying to minimize the impact that these issues have for you, I'm only saying that this is likely not the right environment for you to discuss them. I do hope you can find some support here because this is a great place. If you find an environment that fits your needs you are still welcome here for supplemental support within our guidelines.
