The number of examples I have seen of people being told to shut up about their lived experiences with sexual abuse in the past 24 hours on this platform is deeply disturbing.

I am calling on y’all to take a deep breath and listen to women for once. There is a time and place for tone policing and it’s never the very minute a woman speaks up.

The meme itself is very... exploitable to the Angry Jacks of the world because of this pattern they exibit. They will bend themselves in knots in an attempt to resolve their emotional outbursts.

This is very interesting analysis! If you haven’t, I recommend you pop over to this post I made which is about the rhetoric of this meme :)
