I stumbled upon a conversation about violence against women on Twitter once. The lady spearheading it was of strong opinions against men. Yes, violence against women is abhorrent, and those responsible should be held accountable. Women have the right to be safe.
But ... she seemed to be blaming every man on Earth, going so far as to call for their eradication.
I happened to make the innocent (yes, truly, I'd never heard or used the statement before), that 'not all men' are like the scumbags who commit violence against women.
Well ... !
"FUCK OFF WITH YOUR NOT ALL MEN BULLSHIT, YOU MYSOGYNIST TROLL CUNT!" And further robust exclamations and accusations of that nature ensued.
Educated as to the limitations of my knowledge in this area, I decided to withdraw from the conversation.
Civil discourse dies on twitter. The algo demands "engagement".
Also, the absolute irony of using Elon Musk's platform to push an progressive or faux-progressive view point.
I was just there, looking at a meme that I didn't understand, with comments that I not only didn't understand, but don't even comprehend how they relate to the post.
I really try to be understanding and tolerant of all perspectives, but don't think I've ever felt more disoriented in my life. It was totally alien to me.
I chose not to engage, because I couldn't even figure out what the fuck was going on.
