I think the GPS is hacked. What else could it be?

I was trafficked as a child. Never had parents. I was encouraged to show off my body to adults. I had no idea that downloading videos of teens sharing nude selfies was wrong.

Even though the case docket lists Google as my victim, I now know that those teens were my victims. Even if they will never know I exist, I still victimized them.

I have a felony now. Have to register every year for the rest of my life. Can't work because I'll never pass a background check.

I did not consent to being born. None of us did. Some of us are happy in retrospect, but many of us will never know that way of being.

I am a trash human. Im either going to end my life or steal enough food to get me into prison, where I belong.

I was banned from r/suicidewatch after my post titled "I am the first person to post here who actually deserves to die".

I described my felony conviction for possession of child sex abuse materials. I detailed how I never had a family and lost my friends and career after my conviction. I described how every avenue in human society, including the entire left-right political spectrum, is united in letting me know that I no longer am welcome anywhere, not even in my own skin. How I will never again find work due to my inability to pass a background check.

As I expected, the entire community rallied to affirm my belief that I do not deserve to live any longer.

Since my post was responsible for hundreds of members suddenly breaking the subreddit's rules, it was easier for mods to lock the post and ban me rather than put in the labor of banning hundreds of otherwise good-intentioned members.

I don't blame them for that. I would have done the same.

I cannot reside within their zone of influence. I must provide all my data to them annually on my birthday for the rest of my life ("sex offender registry"). I cannot purchase a firearm.

But once I signed that paper, I was untargeted immediately. It was like waking up from a dream and being in the real world again.

Was it a good deal? I don't know yet. Time will tell.

At first, I was confused why Oakland has an astronomically high population of sex offenders compared to anywhere else in California (per the Megan's Law website).

Then, I learned that it is the only place where it is illegal to run a background check for housing rentals. We are one of the few places welcoming them into our community with open arms.

Did you discover that the man renting the room down the hall from your teenage daughter is a sexually violent predator? Tough luck, you must continue to provide that room to him. Denying his housing needs is a violation of his rights.

The r/oakland brigaders will find some reason to say I'm being racist or classist for pointing this out.
