      My tl is full of wtf re some "incel" garbage that's been going around, and I REALLY wish it wasn't. Even engaging with some ideas spreads their poison. Just shove it back into the creepy hole it crawled out of, remind yourself women are human, sprinkle salt, & go.

      This is a common bigot technique, y'all. "Can't we just reasonably discuss the fact that [group of people] aren't as human as the rest of us? We'll be polite and everything." No, motherfuckers, dehumanization ain't reasonable or polite.

      I get the human urge to point at trainwrecks and other revolting things and gasp or go ewww. But we really need to treat some topics as too radioactive and *dangerous* even for that. When real terrorist attacks and rapes occur bc of this ish? Dangerous.

      "So how do we discuss this phenomenon then?" Easy -- don't discuss the dehumanizing beliefs. "Bob was spouting some horrifying incel nonsense. Did you know he actually believes -- ""I don't need to know what he believes. Bob is now persona non grata. Let's go."

          (I would suggest we report Bob to the FBI, but we know the FBI is too busy looking under rocks for "black identity extremists" to care about people who are actually committing terrorist attacks.)

          Anyway, I'm gonna go have some coffee and cleanse myself of evil with another playthrough of @JanelleMonae's "Dirty Computer." Y'all have a nice weekend.

          Knew there was a reason I loved more than just your excellent books. You are seriously cool too. And Yeah, only way to take "power from MRA/Incels is to ignore and press delete on them.

          I'm definitely not saying ignore them. They're dangerous monsters, radicalizing each other. But we can do it without reblogging their 52-point manifestos and discussing each point.

          I'm not saying ignore them as though they are not there, perhaps a better way of stating it is; not engaging them. Definitely keep an eye on them. And maybe analyse how this psychology cane about in the first place.

          Fires need oxygen, deny them that publicity (and maybe smother them too) and they will wither & die.

          Definitely. I'm with you on this. Sometimes things are too far-gone to even be worth discussing.
