    @evacide

    I found this on Ed Yong's twitter feed years ago and felt like saving it.

    Maybe it will help with the difficult resolution?

    Omg. The irony of this meme considering Chalamet’s recent problematic comments.

        @evacide ⌛ Two things make this easier for us:

        • The people who are shouting aren't here to listen.
        • The work that is education of randos on the internet is, fortunately, not my responsibility. If they're nice I'll help because I'm also nice, otherwise its their problem.

                If freedom is something you value, then the freedom to be wrong is part of that.

                                  @evacide IMO it became easier when, years ago, foul men living in the USA posted sh*t about me (“How dare an Australian woman start a zine without our permission and mentoring?!”) and I learnt that they WANTED an online fight and to be named. They were FURIOUS when I took all identifiers & links to them off my website. Many ppl are like that: they want the engagement. The best punishment you can mete out is to ignore and even block.

                                    @evacide The hard part is not letting anyone be wrong on the Internet, that happens naturally, all the time. What's difficult is making anybody conscious to be wrong, on the Internet.

                                    Once, communication with a wide audience was driven by entities with some authority on that media. Somebody authoritative, some other authoritarian, but whatever the narration always showing to be "right".
                                    Hence, anybody writing on this media (like I do now) feels to have inherited that power to be "right". G'd lk
