Here’s a thing: there’s nothing sacred about callout posts. Anyone can make one. This includes abusive people.

In fact, given the common abuser tactic of isolating their victim from any possible support networks, I think it’s actually MORE likely for abusers to make callout posts about their targets than vice versa.

If you see a callout post on your dash that makes no effort to back up its claims, and you don’t know the poster? Don’t spread it. There is an extremely high chance you’d be doing an abuser’s work for them.

And if they DO provide links to back up their claims? READ THEM. Don’t just assume those links say what the poster claims they do. I have seen SO MANY callout posts cross my dash, where the descriptions of their “receipts” were just blatant misrepresentations of what happened– sometimes even outright lies– and the few that have checked out don’t REMOTELY make up for the many that started baseless witch hunts.
