I always have to remind people in my life: "I'm not a liberal; I'm a leftist"

Being nice to black people isn't anti-racism

so, one way i can tell to defuse these things is to look at their claims even if you agree with them, and demand to see evidence

and then actually read the evidence to see if it actually agrees and is itself supported by anything

if it does, and you agree, you get something in your own pocket to use later. if you disagree, then there's something to consider for your own arguments.

if it's unfounded, well, nail in the coffin there

hmm

one thing that memetic hazards seem to have in common is claims that seem legit by aesthetic, but are short on solid evidence to back that interpretation

and yes i know i do that too

@FreyaManibrandr True! Self acceptance is hard

Perpetually negative people are exhausting

Trans and intersex inclusive: People with Y chromosomes are more likely to die from Covid-19.

This is a lot more informative and precise, too.

don't just live out of spite, live because somewhere out there is someone threatened by your existence and your existence threatens their power ✨
