If you had read the thread you would have seen that I did not make any "ableist" jokes. I did not make fun of or attack anyone. This is the sort of post that is making Spoutible look like X.

I had a few people take issue with me mentioning Trump's substance abuse induced incontinence. I have compassion for their own issue, but I wasn't attacking them. My comment was regarding Trump's narcissistic pompacity despite his well known addictive habits and other failures.

-nods- I witnessed that. You were right. If you can tolerate it, don't back down when the bullies gather and attack you.

Thank you for the support. I've muted a couple of them, blocked the one who wasn't happy with my apology, and I took down the offensive post because of the lack of clarity. The thread in it's entirety wasn't making fun of incontinence, it was entirely directed at Trump's irrational behavior.

I agree. :-) Yes, I was thinking of the future when I spoke of reporting.

I did quite a bit of bot tracking and reporting abusive posts on twit. A few here. I don't have much use for people who don't read with comprehension, though it isn't really grounds for reporting. 300 characters can make clarity difficult, especially when you need to thread.

:-) Yes, clarity can be difficult in 300 characters, but the lack of comprehension is, I think, the bigger issue. Kneejerk attacks often follow.

I try to keep my responses measured and respectful, and only directed to the subject matter. It is a matter of comprehension, which in turn can be mitigated by people's fears, insecurities and false assumptions.

I like your approach/philosophy. Mine is similar.
