Personally, I have never been encouraged to do anything related to
activism by the terrible blaming and condescending tone of some of the
people here on the fedi. Using the second person perspective should not
be allowed when you're attempting to use a strict or corrective tone in
order to get people to listen to you.
Also, I am highly sensitive to people who seem to encourage the
development of any kind of 'wokeness' through struggle sessions and
other kinds of radical 'self-criticism'.
That is usually just bullying and the development of new hierarchies of
power.
Also, if you don't know me, or don't know the person you're subtooting,
you probably shouldn't be doing it.
