I. CANNOT. STAND. YALL.
so many white people donât get this
One thing I started doing a long time ago that changed my relationships is I started making myself speak up when I had nice thoughts. If Iâm in line at the grocery store & I notice that the woman in front of me has beautiful eyes, I say something. If my sister walks in the house & I like her eyebrows, I say something. People forget how much little tiny compliments like that can make someoneâs whole day. It doesnât even have to just be compliments. It could be saying âI love youâ when youâre thinking it even if itâs at a random time. Sometimes I get up and go over to my mom just to give her a hug out of the blue cause I was thinking about her. Iâll randomly send my friends texts about how I appreciate them whenever Iâm thinking it. Little gestures like that mean so much.
âItâs chaos. Be kind.â
This makes my blood boil..They really do not gaf about poor people..
Rest in peace Yeweinisht Mesfin. You wonât be forgotten.
Me when I feel myself getting sucked back into a hyperfixation that Iâd moved out of.
tumblr: that thing you like is Problematic and you should feel bad for liking it
me, an adult capable of critical thinking and criticizing things while still wholeheartedly enjoying them: please get out of my living room
The white male style of debate is to antagonize you until you snap. Then they win by default, because they make up their own rules in which being upset automatically invalidates your argument. The key is also to argue about things that they have no stake and experience in, so they dont snap first. Of course in the event that they do snap first, its of course passion, not angerâŠ
White people are like little kids who make up new rules and obnoxious powers to keep themselves from losingâŠ.
At the end of it all, they are happy that you are so civil and can debate things rationally and clearly without getting upset. Everyone shakes hands and thanks everyone for being able to discuss âconflictingâ viewpoints. Because after all everyone needs to hear the opposing side to truly be sophisticated. Even if youâve heard that side all your life and it completely devalues you as a human being.
What i hear is that the mark of civilization to white people is being dehumanized and taking it like a champ.Â
They also have little to no concept of power dynamics in these âsophisticatedâ discussions.
Why I stopped indulging people who followed this argumentative âformatâ
This is so real and applicable to every dinner party Iâve ever been to
This is a particularly aggressive form of Sealioning.
Sealioning is the name given to a specific, pervasive form of aggressive and willfully intentional cluelessness, that masquerades as a sincere desire to understand.
 A Sealion is someone who, when confronted with a fact that they donât care to acknowledge, say, the persistence of systemic racism in America, will ask endlessly for âproofâ and insist that it is the other personâs job to stop everything they are doing and address the issue to their satisfaction.
The purpose of Sealioning is never to actually learn or become more informed. The purpose is to interrogate. Much like actual interrogators, Sealions bombard their target with question after question, digging and digging until the target either says something stupid or is so pissed off that they react in the extreme. The other major reason why people hate Sealioning is because responding to it is a complete waste of time.
Itâs an insidious trap. Responding to questions asked reasonably is, of course, a natural thing for people to do. I like to do it myself; educating others is generally pretty entertaining, especially if they are receptive to learning. Dismissing those questions can appear condescending or rude, especially if you actually are condescending or rude.
Of course, these questions are not asked because the person asking them genuinely wants to know the answer. If they did, they would do their own digging based on your statements, and only ask for obscure or difficult-to-discover information. This is the âdebate principleâ. It is best explained thusly: When you go to a debate, you educate yourself on the topics at hand, and only request evidence when a claim is either quite outlandish or unflinchingly obscure.
No, these questions are asked to make a responder waste their time. It works, too; Iâve responded to Sealions before, answering all their questions and claims for evidence, only to be greeted by even more willful ignorance. Itâs a way to force people into responding to questions phrased neutrally but asked in bad faith.
The name âSealioningâ comes from a most splendid webcomic, âWondermarkâ, by David Malki. Â
It can be found here: http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/873260-sea-lioning
Sealions are just âasking nicelyâ but they are asking questions that have been asked and answered fully many times, and are unwilling to so much as open a new tab to look up the answer, nor will they recognize the validity of your sources, your experience or expertise no matter what you do. It is impossible to satisfy a Sealion.
Make no mistake.
Sealioning is a specific form of harassment. You may not explain their inquiry has already been address. You may not cite a source. You may not refer to a previous answer. You definitely may not ever point them to a link. You must spend all your time and energy responding as much as you can to every little details of every innocent, polite little question they ask. Sealioning isnât a sincere attempt at anything. Itâs a calculated technique to grind an opponent down.
If any of my followers feel like youâre being sealioned, I can play elephant seal and help destroy them.
Not only is this a thing, itâs actually something various hard right groups are teaching their members to do. Itâs essentially just never backing down no matter what, never admitting someone else is correct, and always try to force the argument onto the path you want to go down. So Iâve found the best way to combat it is:
A) Call them out on their inability to admit they were wrong. This sounds pretty simple, but itâs very easy to get dragged into whatever they say next instead of just pointing out that youâve proven their first point is bullshit yet theyâre still yakking on.
B) They try to box you into a corner? Box them back. If they wonât accept a link, laugh at them for failing to understand it/read it. Call them out for trying to veer the conversation in another direction without yielding the point. Specifically state that you see their cheap tactics and find them weak and a sign of a poor debater.
C) Never let them move onto the next question. Demand they answer yours instead. Why should they get to set the terms of the debate? Why is it always them who deserves explanations?
D) Suggest that theyâre arguing in bad faith. That they donât really want an answer. And if they say no way? Then point out that someone arguing in good faith would do all the things they refuse to. Theyâd read links and evidence. Theyâd agree on at least *something*. And failing that, theyâd walk away. Good faith arguers will reach a certain point and then just say agree to disagree. But these guys? Wonât. They will not leave it alone no matter what. Thatâs the hallmark of a sealion trained to demoralise us.
And when they indirectly admit that, you call them out on it.
Then you donât leave it alone. Hound that fucking sealion until he honks for mercy.
Still important.
So many people in my social circles need to recognize the sealion problem we have, and stop feeding the wildlife.
And in case anyone wasnât clear: This method of argument (push until you snap) is absolutely a form of violence, because it requires you to care less about something in order for your opinion to be valid. It is silencing. It is degrading. It is dehumanizing. It is the very first step to making a person into a thing.
