eh, don't mock him, man, that's not gonna help anyone. if you've got a clear call to action in mind best to just call it out and bring OP into it.

It's in the subtext. The call to action doesn't need to be something specific (especially because the most useful ones are judicially challenged.) But even a small change in rhetorical sentiment makes a world of difference in how the message lands.

"Imagine if our leaders actually cared about White people" = limp-dicked passivity.

"European people in every Western nation need to stand together against their corrupt leaders and make this happen again" = based, plausibly deniable for social media.

I'm terminally online enough that these signals are *loud* to me.

when you put it like that, it makes sense. yeah, you have a point. still i'd have a gentler hand when pointing this out to people, you'd be amazed how rationality can go out the window when someone feels attacked or slighted.

You are probably right in some instances.

I'm jaded though, especially in a digital context. When I see something like this, I immediately assume "grifter/terminal coward" and am provoked to derision.

If I were engaging with the person more directly and couldn't get a read based on their public activity, I would likely feel them out more subtly. But I don't use X, so I don't really have to incorporate that variable here.
