You say "we can all take steps to avoid it" but the steps being suggested are put entirely on the excluded person. That's what I'm getting at. Someone shows up and says "I have a problem" and a thousand people offer "well have you tried this?"
If the community was as inclusive as it sees itself then it wouldn't be "have you tried this" and would instead be "okay here's how we're going to all help solve this problem."
Instead it's been "this is what you should do" followed by pages of people explaining why the person might've been ignored from their perspective.
None of this helps the person much, it just puts the onus on them to help themself.
