I don't think I was clear enough.

I get what you're saying, and it's true on that level.

I was more thinking about what is often expressed as "ambassador fatigue". (Which is the big issue with having a mainly cis-white group discussion intersectionality.) It can be tiring to do the same things repeatedly. It's nice when there are more people to carry the load. At that point, marking "101-racism" or "101-transissues" can alert people to either gravitate toward or avoid a discussion. But "I know it already" is kind of antithetical to the purpose of this comm, yes? (I think we're in agreement there...?)
