    Bro you just posted this caution against tone policing resistance to tone police a call to resistance.

    Freedom never comes through surrender, and climate justice will never come through catering calls to resistance to people saying they’re tired and burnt out. We’re all tired and burnt out, shit’s still gotta get done.

      I don’t think you know what tone-policing is, because it’s neither what I was doing, nor what I was warning about. Tone policing is about attacking the tone of an argument, not attacking the content of the rhetoric. The whole point of tone-policing is that it’s an ad hominem.

      And literally nothing I said was an attack on what you said, I was adding to it.

      edit: I have changed my first comment to make that clearer.
