imo for every post you reblog abt ~cutting out toxic ppl~ you need to reblog another one abt, yknow, conflict resolution skills. im not going to behave like this isn’t part of a larger problem in a self-centered culture that exists outside of tumblr, bc it is, but the way these ideas are packaged on here sometimes is deceptive. & sometimes cutting people out is the answer! but i feel like it’s often treated as something to default to instead of, like, the fifth step in a process that actually requires some effort and communication
