Petra van CronenburgIt happens again and again: When I, as a woman, express my fascination with a scientific article (because I follow these scientists and work on these topics as a journalist), middle-aged <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/replyGuys" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#replyGuys</a> pop up who don't seem to have a clue about science, but post ‘funny’ dad jokes in response to my answer. They didn't read the article, just want to disqualify my comment.

Holiday's Over, 👀 Patty.<a href="https://beige.party/@theynege" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@theynege</a> Lol. Kudos to you for encapsulating an entire Fedi thread with the spectrum of <a href="https://beige.party/tags/ReplyGuys" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ReplyGuys</a> and responses. 👍 Will it stop them? :hattip:

Holiday's Over, 👀 Patty.<a href="https://lgbtqia.space/@alice" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@alice</a> Caltrops are a weapon of war, an ancient denial of area war weapon, deployed strategically to passively slow down the opposition's advance. It's used by government agents on the battlefield and online. If you are using a caltrop online, you are accidentally or deliberately utilizing a psyop weapon to suppress the fight against hate and injustice. Don't be a tool of fascism.<a href="https://beige.party/tags/ReplyGuys" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ReplyGuys</a>

🅰🅻🅸🅲🅴 (🌈🦄)There's a type of reply-guy that crawls out of the woodwork when I post anything that might inspire others to take action, and they're deceptively insidious.Regardless of the topic, they sound like this:Alice: I don't own a gun because they're for killing and I'm not a fan of killing. Bob: Then only the bad guys will have guns.Alice: I deleted my Facebook account. Bob: If the good people leave then the bad guys win.Alice: I'm openly queer so others know they're not alone. Bob: You'll make yourself a target.In every instance, they defend the shitty state of things by discouraging action and change. It's a reply that is designed to support the default, the current power structure. It's a type of reply meant to de-fang movements.I've posted about this before, but apparently it bears repeating. Fighting for something takes energy. Change takes sustained energy and momentum. These types of interactions sap energy. They're not posting anything openly disagreeable, they're just dropping little doubt caltrops, little concern anchors—making it harder to keep fighting, harder to gain momentum.If you're about to jump into a thread and concern troll, don't. I'm fucking sick of it. The rest of us don't have the time or energy to drag your dead weight along.<a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/ReplyGuys" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ReplyGuys</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/Concern" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Concern</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/Trolling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trolling</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/Change" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Change</a>

ABY BUT IN ALLCAPSI posted a picture of Poppy in a greyhound group on Facebook.. the picture of her with the octopus hat on. A guy responded saying "this is why dogs bite people".I looked at his Facebook account, and the entire thing is written from the pov of his dogs, in a baby-voice with deliberate misspellings: "Hesloo everyboody. Gracie here. I was grumpy today. I took breakfast in the conservatory this morning. Peanut butter toast was served to me."I've had dogs for 35 years (51 years if you count the dogs we had when I was a kid), and I've literally never once been bitten. I was bitten by a strange dog in a car park when I was 7 years old... that's it. Because I know what I'm doing. Meanwhile, you're feeding your greyhound toast and good-os, and using them for social media clout. We're not the same.

Lazarou Monkey Terror 🚀💙🌈Nitpicking strangers while they are distressed about the news really is a extra level of cuntery on the Internet. It's the assumption from the Reply Guy that they are right and everybody needs to see them doing it, and then they cry they are the victim when their interjection gets the response it deserves. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ReplyGuys" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ReplyGuys</a>

Alx 🐈Ok <a href="https://mastodon.design/tags/ReplyGuys" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ReplyGuys</a> this post is going wild. A 🧵 : - I recycle, because in the mist of nothingness, we all cling onto something.- recycleability of plastic: it doesn't matter, because 1) recycling is a matter of policy and of energy (no, it isn't cost-free) 2) the injection of new plastic outnumbers and it's faster than the recycling process. Focusing on the material properties isn't enough1/
