I will pretty much instantly distrust a fellow leftist if they paint the enemy as being ugly (’all terfs have bad hair’, ‘all far-right bros are fat people with neck beards’, etc). It shows me they haven’t done some of the most basic work of un-linking appearance from character, which leaves them open to a vast array of bigoted tropes, from fatphobia, ableism and classism to homophobia, transphobia antisemitism and racism, because who we see as ‘attractive’ or looking ‘wholesome’ and who we assume to look ‘untrustworthy’ or villainous’  has been coded by all these things.

[queeranarchism]

lots of people in the notes pointing out that this is also true about:

Dismissing people because of their age

Pretending that the people who disagree with you are ‘unintelligent’ and the people who agree with you are ‘smart’

Accusing the people you disagree with of having some mental illness.

Accents and speech patterns

Mocking personal hygiene

Mocking someone not getting laid or mocking genital size or shape

Mocking lack of productivity and independence (’you probably live in your moms basement’ stuff)

And YES. You are all right. These are all bad reasons to claim superiority over someone and every time someone brings up this stuff their ageism/ableism/classism/sexism/etc is showing.

And ya know, 99 out of 100 times, the person(s) that you’re insulting either can’t hear you or doesn’t really care what you have to say. But the fat people, disabled people, mentally ill people, etc. in your own community do hear and feel a little less safe in that community because of you. Do better.

More evidence that Hollywood has forgotten the best ways to truly be entertaining

[bludragongal]

never mind

[bludragongal]

I should make another comic about blocking people for being even mildly annoying and how good that is for your mental health.

[jtem]

Yeah. That’s the way to go through life… segregating yourself from anyone, any idea that you react towards emotionally. 

“Practice intolerance of others, every day, to prove how bad they are.”

[bludragongal]

Congratulations on being mildly annoying and also blocked.

my friend who is training to be a 911 operator just told me that they are having to restrain themself whenever responding to training calls from saying “that’s illegal people can’t do that” and I find that so fucking funny

[crow--teeth]

my favorite rule of the internet is being allowed to block anyone. fuck you family fuck you random guy with a url i think is cringe fuck you discourse blog. btw “fuck you” also applies to me get my ass gone

[caspercryptid]

One time I made a post that was like "if you don't like stuff. Step one. Keep scrolling" and someone replied to it to say "step two, block the op!" And then when I went to check their reply it was gone because they had blocked me and I have never respected a person more

They also usually have free wifi. One of the few places you can use the wifi without being expected to buy something.

yeah we put your girl in the fandom and they villainized her beyond comprehension. yeah sorry they took out all the nuance and made the argument completely black and white. yeah my bad. we can’t reverse it. sorry.

[sophiamcdougall]

We put your girl in the fandom and now she's just the "one who has the braincell". Sorry, they made her a "queen" so she can't be funny or vulnerable or do anything except sigh and wrangle the boy characters. Like a mother, yeah. Yeah, it's still better than it would have been fifteen years ago. Sorry.
