Emotional Leech

Emotional Leech (noun) —
A person who sticks around not for genuine friendship, but to drain your emotional energy like a parasite. They thrive on your support, constantly unloading their problems on you while giving little to nothing back — leaving you exhausted and them recharged. Think of them as emotional vampires, but without the cool aesthetic.
That girl isn’t a friend — she’s an emotional leech in red lipstick, and I’m one sob story away from changing my number.”

Sharon: "Did you hear about Ashlynn?"
Lisa: "I loathe that bitch. She tried messing with me last month and demonstrated that I can do emotional gymnastics at a gold medal level! She started crying and hyperventilating. I was in top form!"
Sharon: "She's dead."
Lisa: "Hmmm. Are we going to Chick Fil' A or what? I'm starving over here."

The ruin of humanity

Imagine a world with no emotion. no sympathy, we would do what is best for our survival, we wouldn't make decisions on what it makes us feel.
"Yay, my emotions tell me to go out with this person..."

Emotional Breakdown

Oho! Sam Sedar had an emotional breakdown! Damn!
Hym "He had and emotional breakdown thinking about his daughter getting raw-dogged by all the fat-cocks and not being able to hit the undo button. Tragic. The real question is CAN I bang Sam's daughter... For $40 dollars? That is the going rate, I think, but I'll have to check with California. I know inflation is hitting them pretty hard, um... Jewish chicks are USUALLY pretty hot so I might even be willing to pay more than $40 dollars."

Dismissal from emotion fallacy

No, you jackass. That's not how it works. What you're doing is what every idiot on the planet does when there's some sort or disagreement. It's the most common modern fallacy. It's not an official fallacy. It's ORIGINAL. UNIQUE. Which is what I do here. ORIGINAL refutations of morden misconceptions.
Hym "Let's call it 'Dismissal from emotion falacy.' Here's how it's works: You use my emotional state or project a negative emotional state (Anger, Jealousy, Fear) on to me for the purposes of dismissing a proposition or statement. It's fallacious (obviously) because my emotional state has has no baring on the truth of my proposition. 2+2=4 regardless of whether or not I'm angery while I tell you that 2+2=4. My emotional state is irrelevant. And by accusing me of 'Jealousy' you're doing the EXACT SAME THING leftist do when they accuse conservatives of being transphobes or homophobes. Protecting 'Fear' on to them for the purpose of dismissing their propositions. There you have it. 'Dismissal from emotion fallacy' that's the thing you're doing. Look for it. You'll see it all the time. People do it all the time."

Emotional Policing

When someone seems intent on telling you to stop feeling a specific emotion. Usually negativity because you're "bringing everyone's mood down" or something similar. Even when you hide your emotions in public and say one offhand comment about how you really feel,there will most likely be someone there to enact Emotional Policing. You're expected to change yourself despite how you truly feel,despite how many facts you have to back up your emotions (which you shouldn't need because that notion seeks to invalidate emotional response). Emotional Policing is everywhere.
Example one:
Todd: "Yeah,Project 2025 is going to hurt a lot of marginalized people and minorities. I'm worried my friends will die."
Bill: "Oh my god,stop being such a fucking doomer Todd! Just relax,everything will be okay."
Todd: "Oh yeah,I should totally 'just relax' when the people I know are going to be hurt or killed. Fuck you and your Emotional Policing,Bill."

Example two:
Jerry: *Expresses even one negative emotion.*
Tom: "SHUT UP YOU DOOMER PESSIMIST NEGATIVE NANCY DOOMER DOOMER DOOMER! BE HAPPY GODDAMNIT DON'T DRAG DOWN THE MOOD OF EVERYONE AROUND YOU STOP IT"
Jerry: "Fuckin' Emotional Policing.."
