The more people post innocuously and you call them bigots, the more they think “gee, these people already hate me anyway” and “fuck these guys” which slowly morphs into “all (insert minority) are fucking scum!”
Act like scum, you get called scum. Stop being fucking bullies to people who did nothing to hurt you. You pulling meaning out of your ass and inserting it into their innocuous post because you’re insecure doesn’t mean they’re ACTUALLY a bigot. Please stop giving people reasons to hate you. I’m trying my fucking darndest here. I’ve never hurt a person of any minority OR majority in my lifetime, nor had the desire to, was bullied my whole childhood actually bc I wouldn’t defend myself against false accusations, but every FUCKING time I get a response on a post saying I’m a bigot, I want to punch that person, because they deserve it. Nothing to do with their race/gender/sexuality/etc. I just REALLY fucking hate SJW woke culture and ACTUAL bigots projecting their subconscious beliefs onto my posts.
Maybe instead of getting angry, we think “why am I making this assumption? Do I have implicit bias against this type of person? Am I just insecure about what they’re criticizing? Should I give them the benefit of the doubt that they meant no harm and just worded this poorly?” Because it seems everyone on this platform thinks everyone is an English major, a sociology major, a psychology major, an history major, AND neurotypical. Don’t assume you know what someone else means, maybe they’re fucking awful at expressing what they want to say, maybe they’re being 100% literal and you’re drawing too many conclusions, maybe YOU’RE the one who doesn’t have enough education and should ask for clarification instead of getting on your high horse of moral superiority and knowledge.
Just… Fucking leave people alone. Unless they’re fucking harrassing you or people you know, stay out of their business. Or if you’re really inclined to talk to them, do it respectfully by asking for clarification instead of making assumptions and chomping at the bit to cut their head off.
That’s enough of a ramble for today. For any of my mutuals, I’m probably gonna hop out for a while bc I just can’t anymore. If I return, tell me to just leave again, it’s not worth the few decent people to deal with the assholes. My mental health is in shambles as it is, I can’t deal with the constant RSD and doubting my own thoughts caused by the assumptive gaslighting on this hellhole.
If you’ve ever spoken to a Tagalog speaker, they may have trouble with pronouns in English. My parents came over as professionals that are fluent in English. They speak English 70% of the time. They’ve lived in the US for nearly 50 years and they still fuck up pronouns.
This is because there is no “he” or “she”. There’s just siya which encompasses both (all) genders.
I probably shouldn’t be surprised about this, but a lot of people missing the point here. the joke isn’t “terfs calling Sigourney weaver, a hot woman, unattractive” and tbh I think seeing this post and going “terfs are so stupid because Sigourney weaver is obviously gorgeous” is even potentially harmful or at least hurtful
the joke here is terfs seeing a picture of Sigourney Weaver, famous actress and cis woman, but because they were told its a picture of a trans woman they’re immediately yakking about how ‘clockable’ she is
Seriously! If you want to send shit like this to anyone, SEND IT TO ME, and I’ll rip you a new one!!!!! COWARDS!!!!! If the pace of material isn’t right for you, why don’t you write it yourself????
This is absolutely disgusting behavior. Sometimes life happens, or other things arise. Just because someone isn’t religiously posting a new fic everyday does not mean they aren’t working on trying to post for their followers. It takes zero effort to be kind. Writers on tumblr don’t owe you anything.
