Date: 2023-01-08 10:22 pm (UTC)I think the thing that made me inclined to push back was the phrasing you used earlier of "This has been my escape from the real world" because whilst I agree that the proportion of people who are $oppressed group who want to never discuss that oppression is pretty tiny, I would guess that the proportion of people who want to be able to ringfence a space in which they can choose not to discuss it right now is probably close to 1. And contrariwise, I'd be surprised if the real world of the average straight white abled &c man is especially full of discussions of race, gender &c that they need to escape from. My experience is that far more of those kinds of conversations are intracommunity.
