Friends, think carefully about how you tag others on Twitter. If someone posts a screenshot of a famous bigot but doesn't tag them, don't tag that racist/sexist/homophobic/transphobic person in your response. They create a cesspool of abuse. Don't bring that with you. 1/pic.twitter.com/MNc4BB7Zf1
Don't tag an Indigenous person or other #POC into your conversations debating abuse that impacts them.
E.g. "What does @ POC think about this," or "@ POC might have something to say about this." Minorities are not on call to solve disputes. This becomes a microaggression. 2/pic.twitter.com/yR4zFk73D8
Twitter conversations have the same impact as offline conversations in terms of the emotional toll they take. Some people take on big topics, but on their own terms. Sometimes they'll engage directly with bigots or choose not to. Respect people's time & emotional labour. /finpic.twitter.com/Jjf5EVfFWf
I have a well-meaning friend that does this to me ALL THE TIME!
Ugh! It's misguided at best. Social media is like a party. Would they drag you by the arm into a harmful conversation, putting you on the spot to face an awful person? I would hope not!People need to recognise that if they wouldn't do something offline, don't do it on social.
