possibly unpopular opinion:
i’m sick of users who’ve been here for years being like “oh yeah tumblr’s up to its old shit again.” ive been here for YEARS too. I was here back when the old, ugly ass format was still in use. i was here when superwholock was on its rise. WE aren’t special.
but if your response to a huge ban that targets and damages the community is, “ive been here for ages this is nothing new” then you’re part of the problem. i can confirm that tumblr has NEVER pulled something this shitty. this is taking it to a whole new “assfuckery” level.
if you just let people trample you and other users, you’re supporting staff targetting content creators and sex workers. you’re just letting people be stepped over and treated like trash.
use your “year old” platform to spread word about how shitty this nsfw ban is and what we can do to stop it and fight back. if not, well... have fun losing followers / notes as users flee and migrate to platforms that do care about them.
