"Can we talk?"
No, we can't.
"That's unfortunate, from a communication point of view."
You might reveal wrong positionality. Or say something triggering. You might cause harm (meaning: harm me).
"Might I? Powerful me! Is a positionality the same as a position?"
No. It's obviously got three more syllables' worth of dimensionality.
"Oh. I still don't see why we can't talk."
Okay, let me itemize the reasons. Check off those that apply:
fake news (everything I don't believe in)
wrongthought (yours)
disfavoured opinion
microaggression (yours)
you might use non-correct neopronominalism
"Uh ... no, that doesn't sound like a thing I would use in any form."
You see? Bullying. And you're meritocracy-adjacent, which is harmful.
"No, I'm reality-adjacent, and I'm meritocracy-immersed. Sorry about that. But your attitude is negative. Couldn't we just get along?"
Well no ... add that to the list of reasons not to: toxic positivity.
I'm not sleeping, I'm revealing my peaceful positionality
