promote the scolding arrogance of "support" as some kind of immaterial force that stains you with its concentration of badness.

i think it is anathema to being a kind stranger to default to a constant state of reminding strangers how deep their sins run for existing under capitalism, consuming or not a thing that is beyond their power to affect. certainly have your opinions about people because its not like i can stop you, but i can posit that annoying and facile doom preachers make terrible neighbors.

this is the pretentious version of fandom policing, an outrageously individualist and consumerized notion of ethics that presumes thoughtcrime and thoughtvalor to be ways to attain change and one of the few behaviors that arent outright violent i am willing to condemn in the generic.

this is the intersection of "missionaries are absolutely bad" and "blaming people resolves nothing" and it is to be avoided. no force will prosper on this ground, your men will die and your horses will scatter

i know because i was there; this user can say it

in reply to @rotsharp's post:

deriding someone for being supportive on the grounds that they're only doing so through some kind of profit-seeking capitalist obligation seems bizarre, only because it wouldn't really happen. unless you're paying people to be nice to you (which honestly is a far better use of labour).

allowing individual expression shouldn't be too hard i guess

i was speaking more directly to a post i will not name and hope everyone has the sense to not produce here by someone talking about "twitter couldnt exist without your support" and if every self righteous queer commie abstained from even viewing links to twitter while logged out it would have the impact of a wet fart on twitter itself.

this is shortcut thinking, a zealot who (attempts to) shames people into acting or not and presumes this to be movement work or some such, when organization is about much more than needling strangers about how they live
