Someone was getting mean here to someone else, so I tried to appeal to the better angels of their nature.

It seems she blocked me. Oh well! At least I tried.

⁨@julieofthespirits⁩ ⁨@noodlemaz⁩ Excuse me, but I think you're being unnecessarily hostile to Marianne. I see no sign of the malice that you are ascribing to her.

Mastodon is more kind and tolerant than sites like Facebook and Reddit, in general. It's easy to bring old habits from those sites here. I myself make an extra effort to be understanding here, just because I'm used to fighting with people online on the old sites. At worst, I mute and move on.

I believe we're all on the same side in this conversation. Given the atrocities we're seeing every day, it's only natural to get angry. But we need to aim that anger at the fascists, not each other.

Just my two cents.
