her methods aren’t meant to be universal, they’re meant for people who want a change in their life and are willing to tidy up. It’s something expressed over and over again in her books, that she’s clear that if people don’t want to konmari their lives don’t force them into it especially if you’re living in a home with people that don’t want it. She has repeatedly said tidying up is a deeply personal experience and she can not dictate how a person can interact with their items, and only can guide them with her methods if they want to do so.

The fact that people are already applying falsehoods, assumptions and outright lies to this woman without ever acknowledging her words, and for making fun of her beliefs and techniques she’s honed through years of experience while ignoring the fact she’s Japanese and can not speak English well is complete and utter misogyny and racism.

I love how a woc can just breathe and white people will be like “the force of the waves her breathing threw violently in my general direction traumatized me”.

this is incredibly funny because depending on the way the symptoms manifest and what you want help with, her methods could potentially help people with all of these disorders. people have different needs even with the same disorder which is evident from different people with ocd saying different things in the notes, but we sure do love making shit up to vilify a woman of color & the mentally ill people who dont hate her regardless
