How to Social Media, a Guide

1. If someone is obnoxious then block them.
2. If someone is wasting your time then mute them.
3. This is community building as it also helps prevent them attacking or distracting your allies.
4. If you want to monitor obnoxious people then get a burner account.

As Auntie Toni said, and this also applies to -isms other than racism:

“The function, the very serious function of racism is distraction. It keeps you from doing your work. It keeps you explaining, over and over again, your reason for being. Somebody says you have no language and you spend twenty years proving that you do. Somebody says your head isn’t shaped properly so you have scientists working on the fact that it is. Somebody says you have no art, so you dredge that up. Somebody says you have no kingdoms, so you dredge that up. None of this is necessary. There will always be one more thing.” - Toni Morrison
