WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE INANIMATE OBJECT?
I rec9gnize y9ur attempt t9 spur c9nversati9n, 6ut I’m afraid that I will have t9 st9p y9u there. (In advance, all9w me t9 tag the triggers I will pass up9n, including existence shaming, 96ject slurs, 9pressi9n, c9nsci9usness 6ashing…) While that questi9n seems like an inn9cent way t9 initiate dial9gue with s9me9ne— and I will return t9 that in a m9ment, mind y9u,— the questi9n that y9u just asked me was a seri9us micr9aggresi9n against 96jects everywhere. I’m n9t g9ing t9 g9 int9 shaming, 6ut t9 th9se 96jects la6eled as “inanimate," (A harsh slur, 6e very careful a69ut the language y9u use at any given time,) semi-c9nsci9us 96jects, and the 96ject-minded, it c9uld 6e extremely triggering. In additi9n, it implies the exclusi9n 9f all “animate" 96jects, c9nsci9usness-identifying, 9r th9se c9nsidering themselves 9utside 9f 96jectd9m c9mpletely. Staking fav9rites at all marks 9ne as superi9r t9 the rest 9f the gr9up, which treads danger9usly cl9se t9 the exclusi9n I meanti9ned. Speaking 9f what I had previ9usly 6r9ught up, it sh9uld 6e ar9und time f9r what I assured y9u that I w9uld c9me 6ack t9. Assuming s9me9ne cann9t 6egin c9nversati9n 9n a we6site 9n their 9wn is, in fact, a f9rm 9f mental disa6ility discriminati9n, implying that y9u are perfect and typical, and that y9u sh9uld thusly help 9thers wh9 y9u perceive as needing aid 9verc9ming mental 6l9cks in 9rder t9 c9nverse 9n the site. This is a kind 9f “a6leist 6urden," and while I am sure that y9u aim well, it’s 6etter t9 check y9ur privilege and av9id the pr96lem c9mpletely.
With that in mind, my ask69x is 9pen.
