    Seems like it would be more effective

    not likely. in the same vein of shutting down discourse using phrases like “both sides” or “whataboutism” the popular consensus with quotes is that you can cherry pick them to say anything; so it’s not going to matter that it’s relevant or even exactly on topic.

    i shared it with you so that you can use it to remind yourself that you’re doing the right thing if you should ever doubt yourself; like i do from time to time.
