Humans are emotional creatures, so engaging people on an emotional level is crucial to any effort to better our society.
Yeah, I'm saying it's better they have an emotional reaction to this than sink into denial and pretend it didn't happen. Sometimes honey is the answer, but sometimes we need some vinegar too. It doesn't matter if they're angry at us for the 'pureblood' thing as long as they're awake - and angrier at the people who did this
I will say, they are still allies and we shouldn't be too hostile to them. Don't go out of your way to rub it in or anything. We've spent a couple of years having each other's backs and forming a group identity around our oppression, and that's normal, but we should recognize any vax-dissenters as friends & allies, and as victims of propaganda & murderous malpractice - rather than as enemies.
I don't even use the word 'pureblood' I just hate this 'don't use it, it's offensive!' shit. Stop trying to wipe away truth and expression with political correctness, that's why things are so bad in the first place
