Me, in a toot: This thing here that’s happening is horrible.
Some random reply person: Oh, what about this other thing there you didn’t mention in your toot? I guess you’re fine with that injustice then, you bigot!
What the fuck is wrong with some of you? You’re manufacturing minutiae to rage at each other with instead of banding together to form bulwarks against the wave of fascism headed our way. There’s enough to be furious about without having to invent outrage from out of thin air, FFS!

@maddler Darn thing is, I do have a position on the thing. And it’s entirely in line with the person who was posting. Of course I’m not ok with it. I’ve posted many times about it in the past, and, more importantly, boosted the voices of others who are directly affected by it.
It’s the assumption by someone who doesn’t know anything about you that unless you mention a particular injustice in every post you write you must be ok with it that is so entirely preposterous and maddening.

@aral like you're expected to have a position on just everything, and you're expected to know everything about anything in order to do so.

@Mjhall I did. Just not as politely.

@aral tell ‘em to go yell at an M&M.

@aral My guess is that they're newer folks from #TheBadPlace and their outrage-reflex is still raw and twitching.

@thelaughingmuse Maybe, I don’t know, I blocked them and moved on.
