     @jmakesart If you're in for slogans, here's one.

     "I don't agree with you" is not hate.

     Covers a lot of ground, and strikes at what I think is one of the most important issues, namely the claims that someone who disagrees with you also automatically hates you and that makes them bad.

     @Gnomeshatecheese @jmakesart It's a generation who have been taught terrible lessons.
     They think ideology is identity, they have been told there are prizes for all, they have been taught to obsess about their mental health, they think there is value in victimhood, they mistake setbacks for attacks, and they pathologise normal experiences. Because they cannot self-regulate, they demand that we adjust to them. Without skills or talents, the only metrics in which they can function are virtue and obedience.
     Some of them are very fucked up.

     @KeepTakingTheSoma @jmakesart When the inspirational message is "you can't do it, it's too hard, you should stay in your safe space with plushie toys and colouring books".
