But it's a pattern. The emotional labor in those discussions is expected from the people already hurt by a topic. While the ones "just asking questions" get the benefit of the doubt.

@Drude@literatur.social @SomeVeganCheeseIsOk@mastodon.social "Just asking questions" is a huge red flag, if only because the one asking clearly isn't prepared to find out more on the subject and expects the person who's talking about their trauma to fill in all the gaps. I've had abuse hurled at me by a "just asking questions" for asking them not to use a deeply transphobic term while asking about trans people.
