I always love seeing this comic because it interprets Tumblr as a gigantic theater ruled by absolute chaos where sometimes somebody just stands up on their chair and shouts and we all pay attention

Sorry I had to do both.

How do I agree with the last comment on a post that thoroughly explains how self-deprecating ‘humor’ as a coping mechanism is fucking shit without giving any notes to a comic that literally shows a black man forcibly taking away a white woman’s precious maladaptive coping mechanism and effectively censoring her in the name of ‘loving yourself woke-ness’?

i do not own a switch. i have never played animal crossing. but i have gathered the following information.

1: fuck sea bass. we hate them.

2: tom nook is not an evil landlord he is a good man and should be respected

3: tarantulas??? are they good or bad??? who knows but they exist and they will make themselves everyone else’s problem as needed

4: handing bugs directly to the museum curator is a spiritual joy

If you’ve been following my account for a while, you have probably seen me mention ecofascism before, but for those of you who haven’t, I’m going to address it a bit more in detail, given the increase in narratives lately regarding covid-19, and because I think it’s partly my responsibility as someone who is majoring in environmental science to do so.

Arguments I’ve seen lately:

Humans are a “virus”/”plague”/etc and the pandemic is the earth’s immune system “curing” itself of us

Humans are all evil and the pandemic is our punishment

Earth would be better off without any humans

All of these statements have some things in common whether they’re from a religious or non-religious perspective: 

They homogenize humans as if we’re all equally responsible for environmental degradation, which is patently false (1 - 2 - 3)

They are anti-Indigenous and erase the fact that Indigenous communities have lived sustainably for centuries prior to settler colonialism (1 - 2 - 3)

They likewise erase the work done and sacrifices made by humans for environmental protection and efforts to repair the damage done by others (1 - 2 - 3)

They presuppose that humans are separate from nature, and that we don’t belong as part of the entirety of the earth’s ecosystem, which is also a myth propagated by Western-European idealism and settler colonialism (1 - 2 - 3)

These arguments are therefore not only unscientific, but also reinforce certain ideologies which suggest:

That certain members of the population are expendable (elders, people who are disabled, people with chronic illnesses, poor people, homeless people, migrants, refugees, etc.)

That despite the fact the BIPOC make up the majority of those who are below the poverty line and are at most risk to dying from infectious diseases as well as our exposure to environmental racism, that whatever befalls us is still deserved

That oppressed peoples must “sacrifice” our wellbeing for the earth by any means necessary, despite the fact that human and environmental welfare aren’t mutually exclusive (they are interconnected)

I urge anyone who falls in line with this type of thinking to please read the articles linked above and spend some time contemplating your internal motivations for these beliefs; are you truly concerned about the environment or are you merely angry and feel the need to project that anger by misplacing blame rather than finding solutions? There is a difference between genuine care for the environment versus using the rhetoric of environmentalism to justify an underlying problem of misanthropy. Remember that you cannot address unhealthy coping mechanisms for your emotions by adopting politics which only serve to enable them. 

I want to emphasize, however, that it’s perfectly fine to feel anger at the state of things. But instead of allowing your motivations to be controlled by it, learn to use it to your advantage by showing solidarity with others who feel the same way and are also searching for solutions. A movement will never succeed if we give in to misanthropy and individualism.

If anyone talks with any amount of approval about the potential mass dying of humanity during climate collapse, you can punch that person in the face.

If that person is white, you can punch them twice.

(Technically, unless you are interrupted, nothing is physically stopping you from punching people who trivialize the mass murder of billions of people of color many more times. The ones or twice are just suggestions of what you could do.)

[queeranarchism]

The world wouldn’t be better if a tiny population lived in the forests again.  Don’t fucking romanticize genocide.

Overpopulation is a myth. Resource distribution is the problem.

Humans aren’t ‘a plague’ or ‘parasites’. Capitalism is the problem. Comparing humans to animals or sicknesses has always been used to justify violence against populations. 

You’re not cool and edgy if you’d be okay with mass dying because you ‘hate humanity’.

Each of these statements is paving the way for very real mass murder and genocide. People of color are already dying in large numbers because of climate change and ‘western’ states are already militarizing their borders and getting rid of human rights in preparation for a situation where most of the world dies while the privileged survive. They really wanna do this and every time you say this shit you make it easier for them.

[lemonlimeimprobabilitydrive]

^^ 100% correct

As a Jewish person, let me add that it goes real quick from ‘people are the problem’ to ‘x people are the problem’

We’ve seen it before, we’ll see it again, we’re already seeing it now

[queeranarchism]

Absolutely!

The overpopulation narrative warms people up for genocide in stages

Making you believe overpopulation is a problem

Making you believe that depopulation is necessary

“Okay, so if depopulation is necessary, let’s make sure the best people survive”

“Here’s who I think are not worth saving”

Genocide

Shut that shit down at step 1. 

[redstarovermoundcity]

@danganronpusassholefactory haven’t been on this hellsite much for a while but since I’m socially isolating I’m taking time to do this

Nicknames: N/A, maybe Pancake Ball but doesn’t seem to stick

Zodiac: Virgo

Height: 163cm

Last thing you googled: swiss army phone case. 

I watched a jackbox stream where they played Patently Stupid where one of the pitched inventions was a phone with knives and they wondered if a swiss army phone case already exists so I had to check

Last gift given or received: The game ‘I have no mouth and I must scream’ a few days before new years eve from you @danganronpusassholefactory~

First things you notice when you meet someone new: lmao idk

Currently reading/watching: Reading Jane Eyre because I accidentally got hooked when I had to skim through it for an essay to see how it handled first person narration w audience awareness. The style is nice and the protagonist is so likable as she suffers at the hands of cruel people but still believes she’s not deserving of such cruelty and goes out to seek her own freedom and passions.

Can’t wait for all that to be ruined when she marries the abusive dude who keeps his wife locked upstairs apparently lmao 

Also currently watching Glitch Techs. A gamer cartoon show that’s actually good??? The voice-acting, animation, writing, comedic timing and how the overall concept (two teens work as secret task force members that take out video game monsters that escape their games) is handled is so far so good.

Favourite musicians: Abba and Queen

Song stuck in your head: Come on shake your body baby do the conga know you can’t control yourself any longer feel the rhythm of the music getting stronger

Do you get asks: nah

Amount of sleep: somewhere between 10 to 6 hours
