Challenge messages of hate, rather than blocking, ignoring, or dismissing them. Learn the insidious methods of covert racism and bigotry, identify them, and bring them out of the dark and into conversation. The more you learn about their methods, the more often you’ll see them in practice.

Ugh, an article with popups on loss of window focus. That's an immediate Ctrl+W from me.
What does ctrl W do?

They caused the problem, they need to clean it up.
Especially with the tyranny of the idea of “there are only being two genders” forced down everyone’s throats.
Instead of whining about their children feeling guilt for things they didn’t do, teach the kids to do better.
