It really makes me frustrated when people apply utilitarian logic to issues that impact marginalized folks.

(Edit: Removed references to US politics with my apology for breaking community rules)

Hey arcane! Just fyi we don't allow government politics in this community.

My apologies I will remove.

Hey mate just fyi we don't allow government politics in this community

Oh ok apologies then

I think the problem with this framing is that they aren't necessarily being dishonest. The behavior I am referring to is when people say, "yes there are problems but we're not going to talk about them right now and if you push on it, we will assume you are covertly supporting The Enemy."

Maybe that fits into the dishonesty you are referring to, tho!

That's exactly it.
