I don& #39;t know how to break y& #39;alls hearts like this, but every single one of these discourses/discussions existed before Tumblr, before twitter, before you were fucking BORN. I& #39;m fucking begging on my knees people: read a fucking article. A book. Do some googling. Ur not brilliant, https://twitter.com/oshamatricks/status/1248393662850949120">https://twitter.com/oshamatri...

Ur not in some exclusive club. Ur not a discourse pioneer. You& #39;re starting at level 1 when someone has already built you a ladder up to level 35, where the capital-D Discourse is. All you gotta do is climb the ladder but y& #39;all would rather roll around in a mud pit https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙄" title="Face with rolling eyes" aria-label="Emoji: Face with rolling eyes">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙄" title="Face with rolling eyes" aria-label="Emoji: Face with rolling eyes">

Tl;dr for a lot of y& #39;all the "discourse" is a performance you do, not an actual thought-intensive dialogue where you try to communicate & learn & grow. It& #39;s just you bullshitting.

Discourse isn& #39;t being a bully with your friends. Discourse isn& #39;t faking a tough attitude online, saying something ignorant & cry-blocking anyone who does anything other than enthusiastically scream for you. Discourse is exhausting & hard work.

This thread isn& #39;t about OP btw, idk them/their profile & they& #39;re probably fine/great, their post is just like the tenth fucking identical one I& #39;ve seen in 24 hours so they just so happened to lose the QRT roulette lmfao
