Rules for Enduring Internet Hate 1. Be invulnerable. Have a job you can't get fired from, a house you're not afraid to move out of, friends who know your worst. 2. Do not show fear, ever. Do not hide, be defensive, show signs of self protection or retreat. Extremely important.

That does make it sound like emotional opennes and vulnerability could be risky _before_ achieving sufficient material and social invulnerability though? Haven’t really yet magaged to wrap my head around these things myself

I notice that the one time I kind of got dogpiled in the internet I did instinctively avoid showing fear or otherwise “letting blood in the water.” I guess that would have felt more difficult had the angry pilers had access to my personal writings.
