Gloves Off

Please use this post for discussion of those contentious, murky, triggering issues too complex to discuss/moderate on the main post.

Note that this post is NOT a free-for-all and will still be modded for slurs, namecalling, doxxing and trolling. But fair warning that it will not be moderated for discussion of issues some find triggering (trans issues, mental illness, etc.) and that if you choose to participate here, you do so at your own risk.

I think this comment is kinda disingenuous: the anon is reacting to TB talking about them; maybe not specifically them individually, but that's what you get when you use a broad brushstroke to tar an entire comm.

One thing's a reaction to someone approaching the topic of Andy in a way they feel is destructive.

The other is a reaction to someone telling all of us in this comm, including those of us who're abuse survivors, and including those of us who're survivors of andy, that we're silencing victims of abuse because we disagreed with Meg about Andy's actions.

One of these things is not like the other.

This is also how I meant my comment to be taken: not as commentary on that particular comment, but on the comm's general reaction to TB's post. A few anons have only said they might unfollow him, but several others have gone much further. The overall result, because anons cannot be differentiated, was a calling out.
