2/this is a bit scary, cause the thing I have to be afraid of isn't truth, it's weaponized narratives carried by people who don't like me and don't care about my actual opinions. The question then becomes, how much should I filter my speech to avoid handing weapons to the enemy?

3/And of course I'm not discounting the practical use of self censorship to avoid stuff like having five thousand people call you a dog fucker, but it does go against a lot of what I value. I want to be uncensored, I want to be as vulnerable as possible as publicly as possible.

5/those people and beliefs around me too (I'm still working on astrology pls give that one time). I feel generally capable of being eviscerated, so I want to allow myself to be eviscerated. It's just the internet doing what the internet does.

When trying to monopolize a niche or break into one, ALWAYS double down on your quirks, interests, even mistakes. "Be yourself" is cliche, but it's the answer here. They actually think you fuck dogs? Build on that shit! Make it weird! Ask yourself, "what would
@visakanv do?"

To be clear: do not fuck dogs

I loved that tweet because it outed a TON of people who's cognition is broken - they assume a question is a defense.

don't self-censor at all. The more 'outrageous' questions you ask, the more people recognize it's what you do
