Listen, I know it comes from a good place. But when someone from the States talks about their experience with gun violence or a woman shares their story about access to abortion and someone from another country replies about how unfathomable it is and how regressive it seems, it’s not really helpful?
I know it’s not malicious, but “I can’t imagine that happening here” is probably not matching their vibe.
Thank you, I’ll shut up about heavy topics now.
This is not a direct subtweet (sub-post?) to anyone specifically, rather more generally to the sentiment I’ve seen in replies to threads about these sort of things.
