The more I think about this, the more I believe this is the most important social media post ever. Here’s why. Thread. https://twitter.com/getongab/status/1348574233970921477
When the Internet started taking off, people shared their thoughts just to communicate. None of us had any idea that it would be highly weaponized some time later.

I can’t speak physically. As an isolated young adult, I could finally talk to others with the Internet... and did.
A dedicated doxxer will find copious amounts of typed diarrhea. That’s why I was terrified when the doxxing mob came after me just for pushing JSON scraped from the Florida SOS websites. My whole humanity and self in every mood is out there somewhere.
I’m an extreme example, but most people have this issue to some degree now. The natural instinct of myself, and of course, everyone else is to be fearful of discovery and stay silent. So for the past few years until last year, I made myself a virtual as well as real life mute.
And if the cancel mob comes anyway? The instinct is to beg, grovel, and appease to try and preserve good relations and lifestyle. We saw this with Drew Brees, for example, and countless others. The other alternative is to be a pariah to all but a fringe.
Here we have is the first example of someone who refuses to be cancelled, to be a pariah, or to apologize for being a sinful human.

”I will not apologize for my words of my old self, because it is God’s grace which has transformed me into what I am now.”
This is the Christian philosophy.

The Christian response is to grant him the same grace that God has granted us.

Together, we become the salt of the earth that preserves the perishing society.
