Ahh ok I am going to be brave and tweet about something but I request patience and non-attacking and an open mind. You all know I& #39;m nice so please bear with me and know this isn& #39;t a subtweet/attack / anything of the sort.

Disk Horse:A thread?
I actually adore discourse. It keeps the fandom thriving and analysing and appreciating Furudate& #39;s work of art and pride is something we all enjoy doing and I LOVE THAT
I personally don& #39;t mind repetition of topics because no matter how many times you discuss a topic you could never peel all the amazing layers of the onions of themes that are displayed in Haikyuu. So don& #39;t feel bad for repeating a topic because it& #39;s never done.
However, I do feel as a fandom we get a little defensive/ are less open to new view points.Partivularly if they are contradicting. This is genuinely not directed at anyone this is an overall thing.
A topic can be discussed in many viewpoints and it& #39;s good to take in all viewpoints. It& #39;s also good to be open to NEW discourse topics. You don& #39;t need to drop the old for that. I make new friends but I& #39;m still friends with my old friends?
I just feel like everytime I see someone bring up an alternate point they get slaughtered or people rfuse to engage and that& #39;s not how it should be? It& #39;s understandable if the view point is slander of a character but often it& #39;s simply a new view.
With new topics it& #39;s even worse, they are ignored. And new view points are attacked mercilessly. That& #39;s not how it should be truly. So here are somethings I hope we can do.
1. No hate. Please it& #39;s so childish.
2. Anon hate is even more childish.Don& #39;t.
3. Don& #39;t just like a thread you think is interesting and new, RT it. A like is a & #39;yeah alright.& #39; An RT is & #39;Look at this new topic guys.& #39;
4. Repetition of topics- actually fine.

5. Refusal to engage with an alternate view that& #39;s not slander/ getting overly defensive of said view point that& #39;s not slander- not really fine and limiting
6. Be polite when offering your point against someone& #39;s point.
7. Give people time and space to explain their point

8. Most controversial: If you see a new unexplored concept/new viewpoint and you have a good following and you think it& #39;s interesting- RT please.
This is going to sound like I& #39;m pinning the blame on big accounts I& #39;m not they aren& #39;t obligated to do anything.

BUT big accounts, whether they like it or not, have a following that gives them a bigger leverage when it comes to engagement and discourse. Obviously? So if you are a bigger account and you liked something different, RT it and give it some validation. Just a suggestion
I do this too. Entirely voluntarily and it takes a fraction of a second. Not saying big accounts are bad and I& #39;m not saying they are obliged and I& #39;m not saying they don& #39;t do this. But discourse seems closed sometimes and defensive other times and I& #39;d like it if it was more open
NOT A SUBTWEET, NOT A SLANDER, NOT AN ATTACK . More a request and frankly if you already did this, you would just thumbs up and go ? This thread isn& #39;t for you then?
I think the main take away is to not be afraid to say new things and concepts. Engage with new views and concepts. RT concepts and views that you like. Don& #39;t hate on ones that you don& #39;t agree with , respectfully engage in discourse using polite sentences like a civil person.
Do not drag someone& #39;s personal life or send Anon hate that& #39;s fucked up and immature and you know it. Don& #39;t make fun of something they can& #39;t help like their mental abilities/linguistic abilities because that& #39;s also fucked up and childish . Seriously. Fuck you.
I love this fandom and discourse keeps me alive but I think it can sometimes be closed off or irritated in tone and sometimes disrespectful. Tysm for being patient and listening.Hope I haven& #39;t offended anyone I love you all so much!
