The idea of “but everyone knows that” needs to stop.

I saw a post about someone chiding Millennials for not knowing about JKRowlings transphobia, and asking how it is at all possible that people can exist in the world and the internet and, you know, not know.

Which I mean, I get. It is so present in so many of my online spaces that it seems astounding that someone could simply be ignorant! It feels impossible!

But let me tell you a story:

I went on a girls trip with a bunch of friends. All of us are rather incredibly liberal and all of us are incredibly online.

One girl would not stop talking about Harry Potter.

At one point, another girl asked her why she was ok with supporting it, and she had no real clue that JK Rowling was at all transphobic. She had heard that she likes to support Lesbian causes and thought “oh ok cool!” And that was it. She was AGOG with the news and rather horrified.

I must once again emphasize that she was an incredibly online person. She’s a foodie and a restaurant blogger.

Later in the trip we were picking restaurants and I suggested one I found on Google, and she gasped at me. Actually gasped, asking how I could ever be okay picking that one.

The shock must’ve been on my face, because she then told me all of the shitty things that restaurateur does. He abuses staff. Underpays them. Fires them on a whim. Is known for being one of the worst people to his employees in the entire restaurant business on this coast.

And she was so shocked I had never heard of this. Because in her mind, I was just as online as her. And in her online world, EVERYONE knew about this guy.

So I think the moral of this story is: always approach the other person with some empathy. Even online people, even people you think MUST know about how bad people are, may not have heard. It may truly be just them being on a different sphere of the internet than you.

So be gentle, be kind when letting people know they might not have heard about the cancellation of XYZ person. Don’t assume that everyone knows all the same info as you.

By all means, let them know so they can make informed decisions, but being kind will go a lot further than attacking them for some info they might not know yet.

Caleb's breakdown at the end of episode 5 speaks for itself how horrible it was for him, but imagine how terrifying that brief interval must have been for Nott too. She was upstairs with Fjord, all she knows when she comes downstairs is that the scary wizard assassin got out and Caleb chased after her alone, she has no idea that Caleb is more than capable of managing on his own right now, at least physically speaking. And once she started pursuing, she must have heard the commotion and Caleb's scream long before she got within sight of him. Given her history, I wonder if it felt like a cruel circle moment for Nott: running through the woods alone and hoping she's fast enough to save someone she loves.

anyway so I think it’s so funny how fandom culture has somehow circled back around to hating mlm ships. “but but it’s just oversaturated and girls being predatory and fetishizing gay people and they’re the ones who can’t read anyway they don’t even like each other like that >:(“ sick, tell me more about your not even thinly veiled homophobia.

[itsqueenshroom]

similarly these are the same people that get mad cause people like to make one or both characters in a mlm ship trans. “it’s just girls giving a character a vagina so they can insert themselves into the ship and they’re so obvious with who they make trans cause they’re just reinforcing gender stereotypes and we’re just protecting fandom spaces from fetish content >:(“ sick, tell me more about your not even thinly veiled transphobia.
