An attactivist is one that attacks statistically sound set scientific ideologies, they attack with personal emotions, anecdotal evidence or the
bible, along with circular reasoning. It doesn't matter it you can prove your point, it doesn't matter that you are right. They are hostile and hurt and so they simply want you to shut-up even if that means denying education and support to others.
It can go on an on becoming very hostile, they will attempt to draw you into a heated attack with personal assumptions, and hurtful name calling, but you must remember these
people are just angry, and that's what they want. So engage with facts on if you choose to and
don't be a victim of this abusive behaviour.
Attactvists attack public causes, such as lactivism, intactivism, non-vaxx,
AP,
Parents who oppose CIO spanking as well as
Parents who co-sleeping.
example:
Lactvist:
People need to understand that when they're deciding between breastmilk and formula, they're not deciding between Coke and Pepsi.... They're choosing between a live, pure substance and a
dead substance made with the cheapest oils available
Attactivist: I couldn't breastfeed so how do you think that makes me feel?
Lactivist: It should make you want to encourage others and share the information we can provide you?
Attactivist: Did you ever think that maybe I didn't want your help? Breastfeeding wasn't right for me, I love my
baby and that's good enough.
Lactivist: No-ones saying you
don't love your
baby, we are just encourage
people to make the best choices available and get the information and support they need.
Attactivist: Get off your high
horse, you're not better then anyone else.
Lactivist: No-
one said that they were better, we are just sharing health information for
people that need and want it.
Attactivist: I wish you would stop posting. I'm sick of having breastfeeding pushed on me.
Lactivist: You're on my facebook page though, no-one made you come here.
Attactivist: This is a public forum so I can be here if I want to! UNLESS YOU BAN ME!
Lactivist: If this is a public forum and you
don't want to be here then why are you here? There are other public forums, and we can't push it down your throat if you
don't come here. You won't here it if you
don't come here. It is your choice to be here so why did you come it you didn't want to argue?
