@dillpickle @LiberalTalkingPoints @tristen They've done a ton of good for me? I'm disabled and queer. Isolation kills people like me, and that's gleefully weaponized by fascists. The people who make it possible for me to exist publicly are the ones who speak up. People do calibrate their speech around what they think others will tolerate. If conversations are just fascists and silence, they're emboldened, and we're shut out. If this isn't your style of activism, that's fine. You don't have to participate. But your activism is not the only type with value, and I'd only ask that you not disparage people for playing to different strengths.
