    I appreciate your comment, and perhaps I just don’t belong in this community, but I think the original tweet is suggesting that appealing to incivility is also useful, to the same people.

      Well in that case I’ll just inform the immigrants in cages and the Palestinians having their infants’ heads blown off to remain civil. I’m sure that will convince a nation that still openly enslaves people of color and routinely uses military force against civilians while colonizing the earth to see the error of its ways. As long as we’re good little slaves it’s better that way, right? We totally got all our meager labor laws and civil rights laws from just sitting calmly, and not at all by being shot, bombed, and firehosed while rising up against this racist nation and forcing them to grant them to us, right? /s

      Read rules 2 and 4 carefully, please. That should help you determine if you feel welcome here.
