I really, deeply wish everyone would make some collective effort to unlearn the passive argumentative nature we all learned from Twitter.

Everyone always treated posts like invitations to debate or argue every point.

We deserve better than this. We don’t have to do that.

It’s so ingrained that lots of people don’t realize they’re doing it. They think they’re just “making conversation.”

There are so many ways of making conversation that aren’t just contradicting the person.

That doesn’t mean the only option is to agree either! These are false choices you don’t have to adhere to.

@louie I feel this so hard!! I didn't use Twitter much because strangers thought arguing & critiquing was harmless conversation & everything was open to it. Thanks for posting this
