Taking a break from Tumblr.

Can’t believe I’m saying this, but irl is so much more enjoyable than fandom right now

Imagine being so terminally online that you get mad that Mexicans love depictions of their culture in media.

And I gotta love his argument of “Well, I studied your culture, so it’s my duty to tell you how you’re supposed to act!”

Regarding “¡Oye! ¡Primos!”

As a Mexican, yes, my first gripe with the show was the terrible title used. And in second place, the horrible, horrible artstyle.

The main idea of a group of cousins in the house? Yes, it’s relatable, you can have things like that happen with some sides of the family, so that one was a good choice.

“Terremoto” being the name of the town was... a very weird choice. It’s not really racist as much as eyebrow-rising, since it takes place in Los Angeles, but still...

And the names of the characters, despite some of them being dumb, they aren’t really inaccurate. “Cuquita” can be used to call a cockroach, yes, but it’s also an existing nickname. “Gordita” is again, accurate, if questionable to use. Maybe the joke is that the girl is actually slim? Or it has to do with the food named Gordita?

Also “Nacho” and “Nachito”. Real way to call someone named “Ignacio”. Having two characters with the same name seems creatively dumb, but maybe there’s an in-universe reason?

Really, if Disney would have kept their mouths shut and didn’t respond to criticism with idiocy like “Well, language is fluid!” or “This is attacking diaspora!” then the vitriol wouldn’t be so high. At most, it seemed very “meh”. I would give it the benefit of the doubt.

Would. Until I saw things like this shit:

Yeah, the moment you use the word “Latinx”, you immediately made yourself an enemy out of the vast majority of the latin american community.

Including me.

A la mierda con esto. Voy a ver Mucha Lucha.

When people say "Do you want Trump to win?" when someone criticizes Biden I immediately think back to...

Look at this idiot.

I don't usually @ people here, but @popcornpie AKA @iamquitepissedoff I don't report people over disagreements. I have no reason to report you and I honestly haven't read your blog enough to know if you deserved or not that ban. But it's pretty goddamn hypocritical of you to cry over this after saying that YOU were reporting my account.

And, regarding your "relentless" point, yeah, I never said that trans people were the majority of shooters at any point in time, so you can put away that strawman.

I said that it was pretty stupid of you to call people "transphobic" over not supporting the trans shooter that killed children.

Maybe this post will still get to you somehow. Even though you blocked me like the little chickenshit you are.
