@MaxBlumenthal You also write that@ChiefElk's interest in Chanel is "triggering" to you--but you clearly mean that in a sardonic way. -
@MaxBlumenthal For you, a white man, to take and ridicule the term "trigger" is as revealing as it is hurtful.@ChiefElk -
@MaxBlumenthal As you no doubt know, it's not white men who've coined this term for the quotidian events that stroke past trauma.@ChiefElk -
@MaxBlumenthal For you to take 1 of the few defenses we've been able to develop and mock it is, in itself, potentially triggering.@ChiefElk -
@MaxBlumenthal So it's not that you're triggered by@ChiefElk's interest in Chanel. It's that you feel empowered to be an arbiter about it. -
@MaxBlumenthal Where does this come from? Why do you fail to see the gendered and racial implications of your obsession with@ChiefElk? -
@MaxBlumenthal Why do you feel like it's ok to appropriate "trigger," one of the few terms the Other uses to defend themselves?@ChiefElk -
@MaxBlumenthal And why do you feel like it's your place to judge@ChiefElk, a Nakota woman? - 2 more replies
