We will never win if we continue to abandon the people most impacted by the very systems we are claiming to fight.

If when it gets inconvenient we’re just replicating the same attitudes as the fash and the same abandonment as the state, what exactly is the point in what we're doing?

3) These have a normalizing effect on cruelty.

If people see other people being cruel, they are more likely to join in. Bots can start fights and encourage human trolls to join AND normalize the language that these trolls use and make them more likely to use it in the future.

We are consistently told that our way of existing doesn't align with the expectation - because people read between lines that aren't there.

I don't think many people know what writing email is like for a lot of autistic people. Spending a lot of time checking to ensure your 'tone' is correct.
