I wholly don’t understand it. If one brings up an issue it kind of is up to the person to explain why it is an issue, no? I’d just tell ya I’m part of a marginalised group? Like, I’m the US version of “white”, rich enough to afford a vacation a year and a house, cishet. My marginalization is not brought up on those bullet points so you’d have to go digging down my comments to find it. Like, how often do these issues get brought up?
Like, the person exists allright if they’re in front of me but if they have an active problem they do have to make a case among the group, as otherwise it seems very easily weaponized.
As for the reason I’m a marginalised group, I got falsely accused of raping someone and that wholly destroyed my social life. I hope you have an understanding of why I’m very weary of these kind of systems.
What this is talking about would be if I were to now ask you questions about your marginalization and demanded answers. But since that is not relevant to our discussion here and because it’s not your job to ensure that I am informed on any issues relating to your marginalization I wouldn’t ask the questions in the first place. You shouldn’t have to feel like you have to justify your existence to anybody who possess by and is curious.
People sometimes treat visible members of marginalized groups like they are information dispensers. That just because they are viable they are responsible for entertaining their curiousity. In specific instances where it’s relevant and invited a discussion of their marginalization is fine. But it’s is not the job of someone to ensure any person interested is told about whatever they want to ask.
