With so many elections coming up worldwide it's probably a good time to remind everyone that tumblr once got infested with agents trying to convince everyone not to vote, or not to vote left because the candidates weren't morally pure enough.

Also a reminder that they were better at tumblr than most of us, comrade interloper was great at memeing. Like, the talent!

Anyway don't fall for it. There is no morally pure option.

and since I still regularly come across the argument of "those blogs couldn't have been psyops, they were leftist minorities who posted about activism," here's a reminder that the people behind these blogs will position themselves as whoever they need to be to get the most credibility in the space they're trying to infiltrate, and they will post whatever they need to post in order to establish that cover

they will do a lot of that, actually; most of their posts are usually a mix of popular memes (since that's what gains followers) and reasonable-sounding posts about social and political issues (since that's what "proves" their legitimacy and establishes their cover), and in between all of that is the occasional post about how voting is useless and the progressive candidate is Just As Bad, Actually

these blogs are meant to be indistinguishable from real people in left-leaning communities because that's the entire point

so this is also a reminder that you cannot use someone's identity or sociopolitical views as a substitute for thinking critically about what you're reading, especially now that we know for a fact that this has happened here before

Democracy requires transparency and an informed electorate, and we take our responsibilities very seriously. We aggressively monitor Tumblr

Abstract: On 24 March 2018, Tumblr terminated 84 user accounts identified as being "linked to Internet Research Agency or IRA (a group closely tied to the Russian government) posing as members of the Tumblr community." In response, Tumblr deleted the blogs and accounts of these 84 users but allowed reblogs of their posts to continue to circulate openly on the platform. Through a case study of posts originating with one IRA account, Lagonegirl, and qualitative interviews with 13 Tumblr users, this article considers the platform conventions and social norms that were utilized by the Lagonegirl account to facilitate its distribution of disinformation. Posing as a Black woman concerned with social justice but also sharing humorous posts that resonated with Millennials, Lagonegirl's performance shows overlap with existing work on "Left Troll" IRA Twitter accounts while demonstrating platform specificity in the construction of posts.

#politics #no but seriously this is ramping back up again #and is very clearly obvious in posts targeting minority groups #like you cannot convince me the infighting in the trans community is natural #or that the rise in blogs that are clearly white supremacist are just on an uptick right now #gtfo my face with that were falling for obvious bait again

sometimes a coming of age story involves violently mutating into the women you were always meant to be and that’s okay

sometimes a coming of age story is a girl turning into a monster but the monster is more of yourself than you’ve ever been and that’s okay

#oc tag #this is about mae #but also about every girl who came up being told to be submissive and docile even when it went against every grain of their body

Hey, hey, look me in the eyes when I tell you this okay? The whole "do trans women or trans men have it worse?" debate going on right now is the most obvious CIA bullshit on earth cause honestly we've both got it pretty shitty and fighting each other isn't helping anyone

Sorry for us politics posting, but we have until May 22, 2026 to submit public comment to the FCC:

More info from GLAAD:

https://glaad.org/fcc/

They have some good tips about writing a comment and protecting your privacy which, fuck it, I'll just paste here:

Providing an email address is optional. If you have concerns about privacy, you may use your initials or public address in your local area, such as City Hall. Do not use a joke name. It diminishes the comment’s credibility.

Your submission does not need to be long. A single, well-reasoned paragraph is sufficient.

Do not copy/paste a template comment. The FCC values unique perspectives, and an original comment carries significantly more weight in the public record. You can explain why this matters to you without revealing private or sensitive personal information.

Here's what I said:

“Free speech is a fundamental American freedom. I do not need a warning about seeing queer people, much like I do not need a warning about women, veterans, or any other group of people.”

Here's the link to submit your comment by May 22:

#us politics #it takes less than 5 minutes and it’s something you can do right now to hopefully make a difference
