I notice a lot of people are quick to answer a question they agree with.
Do you look at the profile before hand? If someone who has asked a dozen racist questions against black asks a question about who supports racist black groups with a commentary about how bad they are, do you carelessly answer how right the question poster is? Do you encourage someone you would normally never associate with?
Has this become a place where the neediest people, the most hateful, can get fans and praise despite everything else they say?
When all it takes is a few clicks on their profile and a little reading, do you now no longer care what the reputation is of people whom you agree with and stand with?
I used to hear people in my party who spoke up all the time. They said things I disagreed with, and when they attacked the opposing party, I stayed silent. After all, it wasn't ME speaking.
Is that you? Are you silent, or agreeing when they say something you like, silent otherwise?
It's not me.
