you don't think lack of intent or knowledge can mitigate an offensive remark?

(Anonymous) 2011-09-25 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
can, perhaps; it certainly doesn't always, and it doesn't magically make something not offensive at all.

and if someone, say, has been having a bad day where they've been hearing all kinds of intentionally offensive comments about who they are, i think it's inconsiderate to them to expect them to be able to always recognize when it's only a result of ignorance and not intentional malice, and always go "oh, this person doesn't mean it, let me just set aside my feelings and hold their hand and educate them."

[identity profile] stella-down.livejournal.com 2011-09-25 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
there's a lot of gray area between "set aside my feelings and hold their hand and educate them" and "unload a ton of capslock and sarcasm to make myself feel better".

I'm saying that if you're going to respond ... and, since this is the internet and we're all communicating in text, you have plenty of time to step away from the triggery stuff and do something soothing if you've been having a bad day instead of hitting 'post comment', which I would honestly recommend because, like the zen koan says, you have no idea what kind of day the other person's been having and if it's okay for you to use that excuse, it's just as valid for them ... snark isn't going to do anything for anyone.
