Good thread, attacking individuals is punching down
But Mike is right each human being needs to wrestle with the pervasive, life-and-death moral dilemmas we face being alive today, and do the right thing. My experience is that the best way to do this is through connection and inviting people to be their best selves (not shaming).

The best piece I've ever read of someone presenting the terrifying, heartbreaking reality of what we're facing, and *inviting* people to join, is this brilliant – almost poetic – essay from

I'm interested in how you consider power enters into this. Often this sort of 'dont shame' people is seen as tone policing valid concerns. For example marginalized people being angry about systems are often told by majority groups to 'say it nicely'.

I agree with
@dragonc on this question. Also: I see tone policing as different from what I'm (trying) to communicate. If we don't situate individual action within a larger system framework of power, we won't be as effective in fighting against it.https://twitter.com/dragonc/status/1217858428971839488 … - 7 more replies
