A part of ‘calling someone out’ (or ‘angry criticism’) online that I don’t think people realize is that if you have a decent amount of followers and any remotely ‘radical’ point of view (or anything specific tumblr communities hate with a passion) you will receive a LOT of angry, twisted and misleading posts that are obviously made in bad fate by bullies and bigots, and well, as a result you kinda stop reading after the first few words when you see yet another hate message. So you end up missing a few important criticisms too. I haven’t found a work-around for that yet that doesn’t involve constantly exposing yourself to abuse.
