Dear anti-wokesters: if you don't take gender identity seriously, I don't take you seriously. Full stop.

Cool. Thanks. That's all good stuff to think about. I guess I should clarify and say I'm not saying I don't take people who don't care about gender identity seriously as humans, I just don't take them seriously as, like, Politics Tweeters, lol.

Also like, 90% of the Rose Twitter-ers who say shit like this are middle class socialists, no? If not more?

But that said, obviously you have a broader real point here about "folks who aren't up on the woke shit may be generally harmful in some ways, but are not generally bad and we should have more sympathy for why they think the way they do."

Which I totally agree with! And as with all things it helps to have an actual human who speaks my language breaking down to me how and why real humans think in ways that are irritating to me.

But also my willingness to extend that sympathy to middle class rose twitter white guys is very very very very limited. But I guess you never know from twitter who is poor or grew up poor. Sorta.

But you know what also, I get mad when folks do the whole "you don't care about me and mine so I don't care about you and yours" thing, and I was kiiiiiiiiiinda doing that a little above?

And every time anybody does that it's just a way to avoid a moral claim on them which they think might be legitimate so actually, I repent from that tweet... somewhat.
