I know just what you mean! I felt this watching my daughter finish Celeste. What a profound feeling, right?

You weren't, actually. You suggested what she should do, but not why.

Why? Why should she do that?

Ugh those dreams come for me every few weeks and I have such a love-hate relationship with them.

Just ask the AI how to work around it, of course

So like, is this just your shtick, then? Working your way through marginalized people who advocate for their communities, to give them sanctimonious reminders that they're not the only issue, as though any of us don't know? You just bring "all lives matter" vibes into the room, and that's it?

Thanks for talking it out with me. I understand your stance more clearly for it.

I agree with you that while I should *hope* people would read articles in context, Media still has a responsibility to adapt to the reality we're in.

That makes sense. I can definitely sympathize. Genuinely, I agree with you here. We've long since outgrown the out-of-date media tactic of writing outrageous headlines to draw in clicks, because the reality is just as you pointed out: people simply take the headline bite and run. 1/2

Yeah the whole situation is overwhelming and asinine. It feels like bad fiction, and I think that's part of the stunted reaction. We're just so stupefied that things have already gotten so weirdly bad

But that's not the way you framed the original post. It didn't read, "this framing is dangerous and misleading," it was a buy-in to the mislead of the headline. I agree with your clarified sentiment, but just as you accuse PBS of doing, the post misleads until we read the context in your replies

You're missing the point, and hanging yourself up on a thought-terminating argument while you're at it. Never mind that you seem more eager to blame straw man voters than the people perpetrating the harm
Worse, you're demonstrating the point, scapegoating as a way to avoid helping the most affected

It's frustrating how consistently white progressives prioritize harming the enemy over helping victims of their oppression. It's like it's the only metric they bother to consider, which goes to show how poorly community-minded they are. The formula always seems to be righteous anger > compassion.

I'm going to let him have the last word, I think. I'm actually kind hearted like that.

Aw buddy, I hit close to home. Keep laughing through it, Simp, you'll be alright 💛

I hate to say it but he's actually right to worry. It's a fear more people should respect. I know this is true because I read it in Zoobooks.

Oh, you know how it is. Bro spends five minutes scrolling fetlife and thinks he's going to be a dom, only to land zero engagement in it, so he figures negative attention is better than the crippling loneliness of no attention, so here he is, begging.
