Yeah, you're saying, stop telling people their actions make others feel bad, this is bad. This is precisely, being a bitch about being told such a thing

That’s in fact not what I’m saying. I’m saying when you say that someone’s action makes you feel bad, it is disingenuous and harmful to the social fabric to do so in a way that suggests to most hearers that they are being, in however minor a way, deliberately villainous.

the imputation of *deliberate* villainy isn't really there, and like so much of ~systems discourse~ part of the point is that the villainy doesn't need to be meaningfully deliberate to have an effect

It’s the difference between saying “ow! Stop standing on my foot!” And “how dare you insult me by standing on my foot?!”

this goes back to your belief that I am only seeing the most toxic applications of the concept. Your version is good.

To elaborate on this: a lot of microaggression discourse assumes collective opinion-holding and treating people as members of a collective, especially when it’s framed as “don’t ask x, don’t do y, etc.” A better format may be “pay attention to the preferences of those you meet”

It also seems to lowkey-assume that "experience of being microaggressed" is a matter of universal interpretation within a given ethnosocial group, not a cultural idiosyncrasy like "writing names without capitalizing is insulting"

can't monetize an identity without universalizing it

Mate, I'm still waiting for my paycheck on account of Jewish ancestry selling out the shithole I was born in to [various nefarious entities ranging from British Empire to USA to Soviet Union to "the BANKS"]
