          Your hearts in the right place, but you give them a inch and they’ll take a mile.

          You have to have an absolute stance on things when you make statements online just to match our discontent so the message is clear.

          They’re going to be trying to weasle in regardless, so it’s not productive to assist them in any form. You just have to say a hard no regardless.

          Also any messaging thats longer than a sentence and provides context goes straight in one ear and out the other. Make it simple stupid and make it repeatable.
