    That’s very cute of you, but I did say I also love George Takei. I know he has wisdom to share. I just don’t think this is useful right now.

      So if not tweeting about it, WTF are you expecting from him? Be specific.

        Tweeting is fine. Advice in the tweets would be nice. And I’m not expecting anything from him at all. It’s good of him to chime in.

        There is nothing concrete to act upon. “Do something” is too vague.

          So you believe it would be better if he didn’t write at all unless he has some concrete action points for you?

              Thinking about an issue is already an implicit action point that you’re forced into by reading about it. Also, it motivates further discussion out of which ideas can emerge. Naming problems is valuable by itself.

      People can do multiple things. Like post and organize mutual aid. Or post and engage in activism. Or write a comment and think.
