In wake of the mask-off moments many users are having over ISFF, and with the influx of younger folks coming to tumblr....
IF YOU ARE A MINOR ON THIS WEBSITE THAT IS INVOLVED IN LGBTQ ADVOCACY, TRANS ADVOCACY, TRANSFEMINISM, POST ABOUT CSA OR IF YOU ARE OPENLY QUEER OR TRANS, DO THESE THINGS NOW:
* REMOVE ALL MENTIONS OF YOUR AGE FROM YOUR BLOG. Anything in your pinned post/bio/carrds, etc. DON'T replace a number with a range ("15--17") or turn it into a DNI ("minor; 18+ dni!") if you dont want to see NSFW, just put "NSFW/18+ content dni." If someone is following you, or you are following someone, or if there is a user in your notes that is posting things that make you feel uncomfortable, do not do this "ummm im a minor" reply shit. Block them.
* I know that the new Tumblr Communities feature is popular with lots of younger users, especially queer and trans youth groups. IF YOU SEE ANYONE POSTING SHIT LIKE "youth lib means pedo lib," "cant have the T in LGBT without pedophilia," OR ANY ISFF APOLOGETICS, REMEMBER SRB: SCREENSHOT for evidence, REPORT to tumblr and mods, BLOCK for your own safety and peace of mind.
IF THE MODS OF THESE COMMUNITIES DONT ACT TO BLOCK THESE PEOPLE OR DEFEND THEM, OR THEY THEMSELVES POST THINGS LIKE THIS, SRB AND LEAVE THAT COMMUNITY IMMEDIEATELY. REPORT THE COMMUNITY AND WARN OTHERS TO STEER CLEAR.
* IF YOU ARE SENT INVITATIONS TO COMMUNITIES THAT ARE ON OR OFF TUMBLR THROUGH TUMBLR, ESPECIALLY IF ITS BEFORE YOU HAVE REMOVED AGE INFO FROM YOUR BLOG, BE VERY VERY VERY CAREFUL!!! IF MEMBERS ARE POSTING PEDO APOLOGETICS, IF THEY DEMAND AGE VERIFICATION OR ANY OTHER PERSONAL INFO, SRB!! RUN!! GET OUT OF THERE!
Alrernatively, if youre already in a pretty chill community that suddenly pivots to having age verification, especially if combined with the apologetics, SRB!!
* IF ISFF AND/OR HER LACKEYS AND APOLOGISTS START FOLLOWING YOU, ESPECIALLY BEFORE YOUVE REMOVED AGE INFO FROM YOUR BLOG, BLOCK AND REPORT!
IF THEY TRY TO DM YOU OR REPEATEDLY SHOW UP IN YOUR NOTES, SRB!
DO NOT try to debate these people
DO NOT engage in discussions with these people
DO NOT interact with these people directly
* DO NOT @ these people if you make evidence posts. Only include the username and be sure to include the pfp in one of your screenshots. Using their @ is like sending up a flare to let them and their followers come harass you.
Quarterly reminder that pedophiles are not an oppressed class, minors cannot consent to sex, if you post something on the internet it no longer is a thought and thus it is not a thoughtcrime, and just because someone on the internet tries to use really big words to say pedophilia is ok doesnt make it so!
Stay safe, be smart, and dont be afraid to hit that block button.
