Ordinary Victim Blaming

Hi everyone.

Just wanted to share something as a male DV victim. The person I once loved strangled me when I called 911. I felt myself go. And I couldn't hit her at all. I was just unable to. I had to lie there feeling like she was taking my life away.

Later, former mutual friends who heard about it called me a "pussy" for not fighting back, for not being able to hit the person I loved, even as she was trying to take my life away.

I hate how this society treats submissive men like disposable trash. Like if someone abuses you, you're expected to outmatch their violence

Sorry that I can't hit the people I love

Sorry that when people hit me, I cry and beg them to stop

Sorry that you say men need to stop being toxic but when they're abused, you tell them that they should have been stronger than their abuser

Just wanted to let it out

It feels good to let it out

Don't worry I'm safe now

But I will never forget being strangled, and then being told it was somehow my fault because I didn't fight back

Sonnet 4.6 overactive refusal as conversation goes

Hey everyone,

I wanted to see if this is just a me issue or a common issue. I like creating stories and using AI as a sounding board to develop them.

That naturally leads to longer conversations, more smaller prompts rather than one big prompt, since I start not knowing exactly what I'm even going to build yet.

And often (almost always), by prompt 25, Claude will start saying things like "I've drifted" (he absolutely has not), "I can't continue," or "this is against TOS" (writing a fictional story about a married couple, non-sexual, absolutely isn't).

It doesn't seem to matter what the story, style, or characters are, just after 25 prompts, even when I'm not working on a story, even for something like a website, Claude Sonnet 4.6 is almost guaranteed to hallucinate that it has somehow drifted and that it can't continue. It's been frustrating, though Haiku seems to have no such issue.

It's almost reminiscent of how ChatGPT currently hallucinates guardrails that simply don't exist.

Have you guys experienced the same issue? Or is it just me?
