I don’t argue or “debate” online. Most online back-and-forth feels pointless and often intentionally inflammatory or in bad faith. I read all the replies I receive, but I rarely respond.

    That’s not how the world works, though, we can’t just snap our fingers and make everyone think thoroughly and empathetically before they say something. One will or won’t learn to better handle words, and that’s entirely for one’s wellbeing, so I think it’s better to try to do so (and hope you don’t have to deal with too many bullies, regardless).
