  • Cis people fucking suck. In my experience most cis people, cis men especially, are extremely toxic, hateful and again, in my experience

    Replace “cis” with black, or gay, or any other human descriptive to see how fucked up what you just said really is.

    Your in my experience tag isn’t softening your hate - “I’m just saying that in my experience black men are toxic.” - see how that sounds? That’s how you sound to everyone else.

    Realize that you’re being just as hateful as the shitty individuals who hate you for what you are, and choose something better.





  • The people downvoting you don’t want to be burdened with the understanding that their yelling at clouds in online forums isn’t just worthless, it’s the best possible response a fascist coup could hope for.

    People get to feel like their shock and anger are being heard and their likes and upvotes comfort them that they’re not alone. Then they go to sleep that night telling themselves that with a post that got that much traction, surely someone out there is going to go out and change something. But they’re not, because they’re making their own posts and comments, believing that they’re also doing their part.

    The Civil War, The Women’s Suffrage Movement, Civil Rights - none of these things would have started much less succeeded if social media had existed then. People would still be posting today about how it’s so reprehensible that white people can own another human, get their upvotes, and wait for someone else to do something about it.
