I think it's a mixture of--leaving a community that's come together under stress, and then knowing you're leaving people behind who are one of yours.
I don't know. I wasn't posting much either, mostly for the same reasons as Captain Heartless--it wouldn't have done any good. (I've had this opinion on arguing with those people since very early in the original sexual privilege clusterfuck, since I'd seen earlier, non-tumblr sfd_anon and ontd_feminism asexuality clusterfucks that stayed on those comms--ontd_feminism in particular had had two or three long, detailed, inventively horrifying asexuality "discussions" well before any of this came up. At this point, I have basically no respect for anyone coming from either community.)
And yet I still feel bad about leaving people alone to that, too. And wish I could lure them over here.
