Words have meaning, there is no need for me to attempt to redefine anything, only apply the correct term(s).You can try to redefine language and reframe what I say, but it won't work. I made up the term "trigger bait" and it perfectly describes what it IS and what it DOES. It is a tool to enrage and divide and demonize. Analyze more, react less.
We have always known that certain whites hate it when we share knowledge among each other, after all it was unlawful at one time for Black people to be taught how to read and/or write it reportedly because white society knew it was in their best interest to keep us as ignorant as possible, for as long as possible. Members of my family rightfully ignored that particular law but they had to keep their knowledge hidden and could only pass it on in stealth.
Same for the craziness of it being forboden to attempt to escape bondage, thus escapes were plotted via the underground railroad, which some of our family members are reported to have been facilitators of, engineers, etc. in many of those escapes.
The only option you have in THIS conflict is to put me on Ignore, because you'll never shut me up. But the fact that you have issued the same lame and impotent command to "stop reacting" what is it, 5 or 6 times now has moved the needle from being insistent to just downright pathetic.
