the internet is certainly not the only place where semiotics supplants materiality and the extreme social constructivist view is that we can only know material reality through semiotics. nevertheless. our duty is to the material world, not its signs and symbols. it is material harms that we are trying to redress
on the internet people develop and cultivate “activist” identities which they invest and become invested in. the meaning of these identities and their implications thus becomes a site of discourse. what does it mean to be X? are you being a “good” X? have you successfully performed/reproduced the gender of X thru the appropriate knowable, legible, and recognizable actions?
none of this matters in the real world, where people have physical bodies, subject to material conditions, instead of brands to maintain and uphold. orient yourself away from conversations and accusations of semiotic vulnerability and towards sites, conversations, and networks built to account for and manage actual human vulnerability, i·m·o
