It pains me to see people who are a vocal part of a group I support and identify with use the same kinds of tactics as the groups they rail against (e.g., empty rhetoric, negative generalizations, no sources for things that reinforce existing beliefs, refusing mature discussion).
This is not snark: do you have a citation for the idea that calling out a demographic for voting for racist politicians makes them more likely — rather than less — to do so in the future? Also, FWIW, there aren’t any generalizations going on here.
Framing things as “us vs them”, demonizing a group, etc., alienates people and ensures most of them will not even hear your argument. The psychology behind this is heavily studied, and there are a number of factually supported resources on that being ineffective/damaging advocacy
So far, your tactics in this discussion include: - back pedaling - tone policing - centering yourself as a victim - asking for sources while neglecting to provide your own
I said I was happy to provide additional sources when I had time later today. Please stop misrepresenting my statements to reinforce your view.
Where did you say that?https://twitter.com/atebitbyte/status/1060232810688966656 …
It was in a reply to just me. I think it was after I removed you from the thread to spare your mentions. Sorry for the confusion!
Ah, that would explain it. Ok.
Aside, the hate I’m getting off the negative assumptions you made about my comments is super shitty for my PTSD. For the sake of the next person, I’d encourage you to next time discuss before declaring something is coming from a place that it’s not to thousands of people.
I’m not disagreeing with that anywhere. I’m asking how and why ranting about a demographic solves the problem of why those women didnt vote blue or encourages them to vote blue. The only thing I can see is that it reinforces people’s stereotypes of liberals as rigid and hateful.
