The callout and doxxing for'ableism' is just unhinged though.I literally developed social anxiety due to shit like this. On tumblr, where I had built up Animal Crossing Bells a large following making initial content that I actually think helped folks. I was never"cancelled" but the pressure was very high and the air became so toxic that I quit. Unfortunately, the friends I left retained this stuff up and I could not escape.
I was never severely targeted, but I watched all my buddies tear each other to bits over increasingly small disagreements and it was awful. I eventually left our group chats, distanced myself from most of my friends, also left Facebook, which cost me a lot of my social support. Subsequently twitter got really bad and no quantity of unfollowing repaired the issue so that I recently quit that also.
It has literally been 4years of me just trying to find any social space I can feel secure in, but watching shit like that perform over and over again is freaking terrifying. And before anyone comes at me, I am not attempting to defend problematic views it is simply terrifying when even posting a screen shot of animal crossing can catch you doxxed and plagued.
It was my greatest fear when I had a massive platform and created original content, but I know it could happen to me even as a nobody. My heart still races once I see a lot of notifications on a social networking program, and I often procrastinate looking at notifications or mails that had caused actual problems in my life. I wonder how many men and women are like me I went out looking for support & community, ended up much worse than where I started.
So yes, there's a step of individual responsibility . However, after years of social networking sites providing an implicit"antisocial articles -' dopamine rush" loop, you're likely to manufacture relatively ordinary people into problematic ones.Was speaking about this with other people a week. Twitter is basically going through the exact same growing pains, except this time it's not being retained in insular communities. The algorithms on Twitter place this type of behavior in front of a much large audience and so more people can dog pile on the matter.
Add onto that twitter's character limit that prevents proper replies and Buy Nook Miles Ticket context, and you have a hellish mix which makes it much worse than comparable scenarios back on tumblr.
