TumblrInAction is so fascinating, because one thing that crops up in a lot of threads, multiple times in the same thread, and otherwise is really common as an argument, is that “SJ” people (however that’s defined) are cocooning themselves (ourselves?) in increasingly isolated online spaces.

Let me repeat that: a system set up so that people can discuss other people’s arguments without directly engaging them is calling those people “isolated” and “cocooned”.
