Rage engagement. Pit Threads into fediverse, cause mayhem by having toxic Threads users in the feeds, know decent people cannot let go and respond, watch discussions and engagement explode, inject ads, profit
I know I'm going to make a real effort to not respond to these people. It's so tempting thou.
What I find especially difficult is when they say something idiotic, get downvoted, and then have a whinge about being downvoted.
Yeah right.
My response to those sorts of ridiculous claims is, •Huh. I guess you haven’t heard of “intersex”. What do you call a human baby who was biologically born with bits of both??
That usually stumps them for a bit. Data-does-not-compute. Oe they ignore it and go back to their original point. … at which pt i have to hold empathy-space & validation (≠ does not equate with agreement/condoning, see footnote [1])… … and then — if and only if they seem open — ask them about if they’re aware that some human babies — to be clear, not trans folx in most case (well except by way of uninformed/nonconsent at birth, ugh) — but some human babies are born intersex.
usually tho i just leave it and no pt in doing so online usually
[1] hold empathy-space & validation does not equal & does not equate with agreement/condoning btw, as any good de-escalation specialist (like an fbi hostage negotiator or a therapist or life-coach) can tell explain better than i can rn.
