When marginalized folks criticize your fandom for toxicity don& #39;t:
*Pretend it isn& #39;t true
*Make jokes
*Deflect blame
*Attack a different fandom

Instead...

If you believe there isn& #39;t an issue:
*Don& #39;t tweet
*Read the discussion carefully and see how marginalized people are being effected
*Think about and work to improve these issues

If you believe there is an issue:
*Like the tweet
*RT the tweet if you know they are cool with the publicity or can get permission to do so
*Follow their guidance and the guidance of other marginalized people to make improvements

If you believe the issue is being worked on:
*Like the tweet
*Say the following- This sucks. Our fandom has had this issue and we are still trying to fight it. There& #39;s some really cool places that are working on this issue. You may like this product within this fandom.

If you are a marginalized person who disagrees:
*Consider whether there& #39;s a possibility that while you haven& #39;t had this issue, other marginalized people have.
*Discuss openly and fairly
*DO NOT BECOME A SHIELD FOR NON-MARGINALIZED PEOPLE
