I think a lot of it is picking who to have those.convos with and, if they’re public and random other folks weigh in, who to ignore. Like there are convos I would have with you or triss because I trust you both but i wouldn’t touch with a ten foot pole from a stranger

(Where stranger can mean, someone I’ve seen around fandom and whose username I recognize but who I don’t personally know)

True. There’s not really anything I can do to keep public conversations or ideas from getting picked up by folks I don’t know and don’t want to talk to (aside from blocking, but you never really know who’s gonna be an issue suddenly). So it’s just a matter of finding the right people to have the right conversations with and not getting caught up in stuff I don’t want to be. 

I just get disheartened, I think. I need to fix that.
