Do you know why as an anti-censorship

It& #39;s because I cannot possibly think of a single positive motive for putting something like that out there. Why would you feel the need to tweet something that isn& #39;t even constructive, it& #39;s just negativity? How is that contributing to the fandom or discussion? 2/12
Now don& #39;t get me wrong, I& #39;m as prone to putting a /rant /nbh or /just venting tweet out as the next person. But I tag them. I make it clear that I& #39;m not targeting anyone, I& #39;m not looking for anyone to respond or trying to go after anyone specific. 3/12
If you must vent (and we all must sometimes, it is 2020 after all) do so without subtweeting anyone or any small group of fellow fans. 4/12
If you want to reach out to people who want to see something different then create something different or specifically put out a "hey I& #39;m seeing all of X, I& #39;d really like to see some Y, any recs? Tag me!" Same exact message, no negativity. You will be inundated. 5/12
I& #39;ve done it. It& #39;s fun. Also the algorithm picks up keywords and shows you more of that for days, I& #39;m convinced it does. 6/12
If you really don& #39;t want to see something for any reason you can literally mute the topic without saying anything, if you don& #39;t know how to then Google is your friend. 7/12
Also so am I. You will find a video of how to mute words on twitter on the app at the bottom of this thread on the off chance you don& #39;t know how to do it. That& #39;s your one chance to not be assumed to be acting in bad faith. 8/12
If you lose the video or forget how to do it then just tweet out and ask "hey, I can& #39;t find where to mute stuff, any help?" Will do just fine, we don& #39;t all need to know your business or what you& #39;re trying to mute. 9/12
So, yes, if you& #39;re going to subtweet me or people I like in this fandom who are just here having a good time instead of muting, blocking or just plain old ignoring what you don& #39;t like I& #39;m going to call you out on it, ESPECIALLY when you have
