      People who are oppressed tend to get bitchy about it, especially when someone says it shouldn't be a topic. Tone policing isn't helpful.https://twitter.com/jmoswen/status/819683320212705282 …

      If someone verbally abusive, probably better not to reward it w/ attention.Plenty of civil, reasonable ppl addressing issues

      who defines "civil" and "reasonable"? I find it reasonable for someone to get upset/aggressive about their own oppression.

      We generally have a consensus on these things & arguments can be shown to be reasonable or not.

          no "we" actually don't. Reasonable and civil are typically defined by those in power. Don't argue subjective terms in relation

          to fighting oppression because what that does is ignore the message and content of something because you didn't agree with tone.

          That's the danger, yes. If you verbally abuse people, they don't listen to you or respect what you have to say.

          Of course ppl can get aggressive & abusive as a result of oppression.But others can still have boundaries & value themselves

          Don't suggest being nasty about it. Just remove yourself from a situation where you are being abused & return if it stops.

          no, you remove yourself from my mentions because unlike you, I understand when people get angry and frustrated. Sit down.

          I'll certainly go away if you don't want to discuss. I understand too. I'll come back when the abuse stops.
