I’ve had a good time to think about what to say about the growing consensus on toxicity in social platforms. I don’t know if this will make any sense but here goes.
When you come across someone with very strong negative views, there are several responses available.
You can:
Feel it: try to make sense of it
Or
Fuel it: argue your own points
Or
Flee it: block and/or mute it out of your life
Or just say fuck it and scroll on.
Which one are you?

@DocLaing so blocking / moving on is the best option. Let's take -- I don't know, Elon, trump, tucky tuck tuck -- any of them really, makes no diff. I would argue the best option is to block & move on.
I know a lot of stuff enrages us, esp. online. I get sucked into it too - I'm def. not immune here. But take those 3 I just mentioned, what if we "blocked them" and moved on? Stop pointing 📷 at them, writing articles, talking abt them. They would just *go* *away*.

Media won’t. I blocked the #MangoMeathead from day one, still he showed constantly in my feed.
