Stop Being Stupid

Just because you're offended, doesn't mean you're right.

[yekkes]

It’s my opinion that like if a white supremacist/Nazi is going to be reformed. They need to do so willingly. The only times I’ve heard of successful rehabilitation of fascists is when they made the conscious decision to no longer be one anymore and seek atonement. People who try to like hug and change fascists that don’t want to change are fucking morons

[haletheprince-deactivated202208]

Correct. I was crypto-facist for a few years, and the people trying to hug me didnt change me because at that point I wouldnt have listened. It was only when I started to see the movement for what it was that I was finally able to listen.

[yekkes]

I’m not derailing your addition but I’m horrified you’re only 18. When did you become a fasc?

[haletheprince-deactivated202208]

Yeah trust me it *is* horrifying. I’m ashamed of who I was and I think my only atonement is to talk about how damn easy it is to become one when you’re young.

This is gonna be a long post.

For a little bit of background, I am a mixed race person, half brown and half white. I was raised in a Muslim family and am still closeted around them.

I started to have issues with Islam at around 12 or so, when I first started to get the idea that I might be gay. Now I never would have admitted that was my reason. If you had asked me I probably would have said “logic” or something. Because of that I went hard into atheism and atheist circles.

Now people hate to admit this but ex-Muslim spaces are predominantly right wing. Ex-Muslims often see the left as “too tolerant” towards a religion that hurt them. This was the only community I had though, and I read through everything. I was 13.

The other thing that people hate to admit is that, especially when you’re young, being mixed race is so damn hard. If I acted “too white”, following my mother’s German/Austrian traditions, I was accused of hiding my true nature. But if I acted “too brown” I was just another camel jockey. So I hid my “Indian” customs from others and tried passing as white. Especially online.

So I’m not saying this is all youtube’s fault or anything. I was raised to believe that the brown half of my family was lesser and stupid. And with my hatred of Islam, I believed it doubly.

Then came Anita Sarkeesian. I was watching pewdiepie and from there my recommendations were all set. If I’m remembering the pipeline it was pewdiepie - Philip Defranco - Chris Ray Gun (sp?) - Thunderfoot - Sargon - etc. But I was pretty much acquainted with all of the right wing youtube of the day.

Funnily enough, I found her through Thunderfoot. That got me into antifeminism, and more specifically, GamerGate.

I was primarily on the subreddits KIA (Kotaku In Action) and TIA (Tumblr In Action). Both made fun of the SJWs. I kid you not, I would gleefully wait for “Sanity Sunday”, where the people would talk about how feminism is disgusting, cultural appropriation is fake, the wage gap isnt real, etc. I would scroll through this tag for hours.

I got most of my youtube recommendations from those subreddits. This led me from GamerGate to more fascist lines of thinking, such as watching videos about why BLM is a terrorist organization, why all muslims were evil rapists, and why I was fundamentally right to reject my Indian heritage and follow my “correct” heritage.

From here I delved into “race realism”, and I believed it all. I had to. This was the only community I had felt safe in. One of the fash guys even offered to shack me up at his house if my parents kicked me out for being atheist. I was 15.

To say that again, I was 15 and believed that white was right, blue lives matter, “we wuz kangs”, etc. I never would have called myself a fascist or a Nazi. How could I? I used my brown skin as a token, so that people could point to me and say: “See, we aren’t misogynistic and racist! We have this brown girl right here.” But I believed in all the things the Nazis did. I’m not going to pretend I didn’t. I will never pretend I didn’t.

But then something happened. I admitted to myself, and to a few others, that I was gay. And suddenly, the homophobia that I had molded myself in, it didn’t fit right. I happened to, by accident, click on the reddit thread of GamerGhazi, the opposition to GamerGate. And after a long bout of introspection I found out that they were accepting of gay people, that the things I had been experiencing were common, that maybe, just maybe, we didn’t need a white ethnostate.

I don’t want to be dramatic but that accidental click saved my life.

From there it was a road of recovery. I deleted all my old accounts, made new ones, and started to read leftist theory. I found better friends, cut out old people. So now, just about two years later, I’m healing.

I think that’s everything. I probably got some times and dates wrong because I’ve been trying to move on from it. But if you need more info or anything like that, please let me know.

                       !!!!!!!!! BREAKING NEWS !!!!!!!!!!

The Tennessee Supreme Court ruled former sex slave Cyntoia Brown MUST serve 51 years in prison before she is eligible for parole.

According to them:

“In today’s unanimous decision, the Tennessee Supreme Court explained that, under state law, a life sentence is a determinate sentence of 60 years,” the court wrote. “However, the sixty-year sentence can be reduced by up to 15 percent, or 9 years, by earning various sentence credits (good behavior. & getting involved in prison based education programs while incarcerated) Therefore, the Supreme Court concluded that a defendant serving a life sentence for a first-degree murder committed on or after July 1, 1995, may be eligible for release after serving at least 51 years of the sentence.“

For those of you who haven’t yet caught up to this story:

Cyntoia Brown was a 16 yr old girl, who at the time of the incident was living in a room at a Nashville InTown Suites with Allen (the man who propositioned her for sex) because her pimp and boyfriend Garion McGlothen, nick-named “Kut Throat,” insisted that she needed to earn money.

Kut Throat abused her physically and sexually throughout the approximately three week period in which she lived with him.

After Allen took her to his house, he showed Cyntoia multiple guns, including shotguns and rifles. Later in bed, as she described in court, he grabbed her violently by the genitals, his demeanor became threatening and, fearing for her life, she took a gun out of her purse and shot him.

[secondhand-sheep-shack]

From a post on another site:

Having dug through the court documents (posted in comments) on this, here’s what I found.

By her own account, she waved down her victim in a Sonic parking lot. He bought her something to eat, corroborated by the employee.

They went back to his house. She denied that he had sex with her, or that she was raped. That was never part of her defense. She claimed he showed her his guns that were in a gun cabinet, claimed he was a marksman in the Army, and while they were laying in bed he kept getting up and going to the bathroom, which freaked her out, and some point she decided he was reaching for a gun. So she grabbed hers out of her purse and shot him in the back of the head.

Here’s the problem with this. She claims he tried to touch her in bed, but in her statement she claimed he was sleeping in his underwear. This was false. He was nude under the sheets, lending doubt that she even saw him get in bed, much less walking around the room as much as she claimed.

The victim was found laying on his side, with his fingers laced, placed slightly under his face in a sleeping position.

She robbed him of his guns, cell phone, and wallet, and took his truck back to Cut Throat. She enlisted the help of another male to help her dump the truck in a Walmart parking lot, telling him she was being paid $55,000 dollars to kill John Allen, and asking if he would return to his house and steal more. She called the police from his cell phone giving his address and saying one word: “homicide”, and hanging up.

She bragged to her adoptive mother in a recorded jail call that she “executed him”. At least two other inmates testified she bragged about murdering him and she shot him to “see how it felt” , including a handwritten note she passed admitting the claim she thought he had a gun was a lie. She threatened to murder a nurse who wouldn’t let her use the phone the same way she did John Allen.

The weird thing about this case, is that the man who gave her the ride to the Walmart was found with a folder containing real estate documents signed by her victim, making her statement of being paid $55,000 to kill him very curious. Cyntoia is who told investigators to look for it.

As for being sex trafficked, she was placed in an adoptive home that was described as “very loving” that she had run away from a few months before to be with Cut Throat. She was described as having a genius level intellect and as being stubborn and “very manipulative”. She admitted to doing drugs frequently, but denied early on being a prostitute, changing her story later after discussing it with the inmates who eventually testified against her.

This is why she was found guilty of premeditated murder in the first degree, and aggravated robbery, with her 51 year sentence upheld unanimously by the Tennessee Supreme Court, made up of 3 females and 2 males.

As a side note, Cut Throat was later shot and killed in an altercation, but details are scarce.

_______________

100% of court documents are publicly available and everyone is buying the media bs story.

Her conviction was upheld because based on actual evidence rather than feelings.

[friendly-neighborhood-patriarch]

Hmmm

[cisnowflake]

[anubianpagan]

Jfc, are we just entirely fabricating the story, instead of just slanting the facts?  Based on the facts laid out here, it sounds like she deserves to stay in prison.

[siryouarebeingmocked]

Plot Twist: BLMers and feminists jump to conclusions about a criminal case without doing basic research.

Seriously, I’ve heard people complaining about the “missing pretty young white blonde” news stories, but this isn’t really any better.

[geekandnerdboomxer]

I notice the pro “Baby It’s Cold Outside” arguments conveniently leave one major fact: there was no birth control at the time, other than condoms- which very few men would use. (In fact,men were overwhelmingly virulently anti condom). This song is no “feminist” anthem. It is about a boyfriend manipulating the woman he is dating to stay the night and have sex. It was exactly this type of manipulation that sparked the 2nd wave of feminism to take off with college aged women in the later 60’s. “Sexual liberation” was not about “female empowerment” it was about women in relationships now not only expected to be the man’s cook and maid but provide free sex whenever he was in the mood too. So yeah. I’ve always hated that song.

[valessari-deactivated20220916]

The line that crosses the line for me is “Say, what’s in this drink?” it’s absolutely supposed to be a reference to being roofied or spiked. Even if her drink is only spiked with alcohol it still sets the predatory precedent that in order to get a girl to agree to sleep with you, you have to make her vulnerable by using alcohol or drugs, she was surprised to find alcohol in her drink.. he put it there to make her relax and agree to have sex with him.. this kind of societal narrative fuels rape culture, regardless of how “innocent” it may seem. 

The biggest argument I face when debating this is “Those were the times” yes, those were the times of the song, times when women were expected to play along not to anger their husbands, and let them do what they wanted even if they wanted sex when the woman didn’t. “Baby it’s Cold Outside” is problematic. 

[thatsyouthatshowdumbyousound]

The expression ‘There must be something in my drink’ and variations of it, one of which appears in this song’s lyrics, was a common saying for humans of both sexes in 1940s culture. It was used to express ‘I am consciously doing or am about to do something that is socially frowned upon, so I am blaming it on being drunk’. It has nothing to do with actually being drunk.

Your assertion of what that expression is “absolutely supposed to be” is a display of incredible confidence in incredible ignorance. In short: you have no idea what you are talking about; stop acting like you do.

[ren-of-rationality]

Also @valessari you can tell it’s not “absolutely supposed to be a reference to being roofied” considering the song was written in 1944 and benzodiazepines in general weren’t even discovered until 1955, and rohypnol wasn’t released until 1975 and that was in Europe.  It didn’t even get to the US until the damn 90s.  

I know you go on to say maybe it’s only alcohol.  But come on, we’ve now established that we can’t trust you to know enough about the time period and subject you’re discussing to know what types of drugs they even had available at the time.  So how can we trust you to have knowledge about the culture and subtext of the time which is arguably a much more nuanced subject than discovery and release dates of chemicals?

[feministism]

[thatsyouthatshowdumbyousound]

A litany of feminism-focused tags, yet not a single thought of this expression when it comes to the norm of feminists blaming all men for what a tiny minority of them do, and, possibly even worse, blaming all societal ills on men by claiming that the entirety of society is male-borne, a “patriarchy”, and therefore, every negative element of it is males’ fault (not to mention that no positive elements of it are ever credited to males or maleness).

Textbook hypocrisy.

[feministism]

[dismantlexsjwsxfeminism]

This has already been proven false tho.. Why are you lying? The guy called out for being a far left wing person spreading racist propaganda and is in a stolen valor video. The desperation of these people to push their narrative is getting scary. Google would be a amazing start to educate yourself considering how much you spread lies and false information to push you far left wing narrative.

[siryouarebeingmocked]

Kaepernick was kneeling to protest police brutality and systemic oppression, not random racists. The two things are entirely unconnected, except for the fact that they both involve alleged racism against black dudes.

Also, Kaepernick explicitly said he had no pride in America. Which, obvs, includes the troops.

A Degree in Nonsense

I guess PragerU did a huge advertising buy on Facebook. I’ve already had two videos show up in my feed today. 

If you are unfamiliar, PragerU is an alt-right YouTube-based “university” that claims they can teach you stuff in 5 minutes. They take the most dubious information, remove important context, and skew the interpretation of statistics to create a favorable point of view for far-right conservative ideals. 

They use cute little graphics and animations along with academic wording to make it seem like they are not just spewing bullshit everywhere. Sometimes their graphs will not have an axis labeled. Or they will represent data that cannot possibly be quantified. 

I enjoy this one where masculine zig-zags into feminine. 

Is that over a period of time? How did they measure this data? 

Here is their graph about the decline of art. 

Damned hippies ruined art. 

Every video I’ve watched makes me want to shower directly after. 

The first one that ended up in my feed this morning was about how the Democrats were pro-slavery and the Republicans were pro-emancipation. Their conclusion? How can modern Republicans possibly be racist? Forget that whole thing where the parties completely switched ideologies. 

And just now I saw a video talking about how college rapes aren’t a big deal. Rape culture is a myth! Much ado about nothing! And what about the men who are accused? WHAT ABOUT THE MEN?? 

Blue Man Group may never recover from this. 

No mention about how rapes are one of the least reported crimes. Or how rare false accusations actually are. They also made sure the video was presented by a young conservative woman. I can’t imagine why they did that. 

PragerU is trash. 

It’s not a university. 

Here is a graph about PragerU.

[tiredofstupidcrap]

You didn't watch like any of them did you? And alt right? Really? Even with a noted feminist on there as well? Just admit you disagree with their view points and don't go slandering groups without context.

[misogynistfeminist]

Domestic 'violence' against men is valid as violence against women. That's why they haven't opened up any shelters for them yet!

[maolibeautyprincess]

Okay, I’m done seeing this. I’m done with people like you acting all high and mighty against men because “men are trash” or some other shit you are probably going to reply to me with. 

Years ago, my twin brother got into a relationship with a woman. She was sweet, kind, and seemed supportive. The exact kinda relationship you want to see a family member get into. But little by little, day by day, my brother started talking and hanging out with me. At first I thought it was something I did, maybe I said something wrong. But no, this bitch told my brother to stop spending with any female woman he knows, including family. Of course, warning bells go off in my head, but I chose to ignore them. Like you, I was close minded at one point and believed that men couldn’t be abused. I will regret this decision for the rest of my life.

The violence soon began after she trapped him. Yes I use the word trap, because that’s basically what happened. She didn’t let him out of the house because she “loved” him and was scared he would leave her. He wasn’t allowed to go to parties because he might cheat on her. He was alone with this woman, who even controlled how long he spent online and where he went. (She used parent controls.)

The violence began as minor stuff, pushing him or “accidentally” stepping on his feet or hands. But like most domestic violence cases, it just got worst. The big one first happened when she slapped him across the face after he refused to not come to our dad’s birthday celebration. She “apologized” and then said that she wouldn’t do that if he would just listen to her.

He tried, oh gods above did my brother try to keep her happy. It was no longer about because he loved her, but he was scared that she would hurt him or destroy something precious to him. She started misgendering him (my brother transitioned from FtM), insulting him, making fun of his likes and hobbies. She would destroy his photos or personal belongings like clothes.

One day, enough was enough, and after she took paused from punching him during an argument, he pushed her hard enough that she fell to the floor, and he ran to the bathroom to call me to come and help him. At this point, I did basic research about domestic violence against men (something you obviously haven’t OP) and knew something horrible was going on. I quickly drove over to their house, not home… never home, and picked him up as she was screaming on the porch to have him arrested for “hurting” her.

Just a few hours later, after cleaning himself up and me bandaging any wounds on him, the police showed up to our house. Our first though, as Native Hawaiians, was “oh fuck.” So after hearing his side of the story, you know what this PO did? He arrested my brother! On the charges of domestic violence. For you ask? Pushing her. Yeah, that thing my brother did in self defense? Got him arrested.

He soon got released on flimsy charges, and this bitch tried to get together with him again. Not making the same mistake twice, we got him to place a restraining order against her. The police wouldn’t do shit, so he had to get a restraining order.

And after all of this, my brother still doubts that he went through domestic violence, because people like OP exist who believe that women are fragile and weak against the strong and unbreakable men. And let’s just forget about same sex relationships, even though there is a same sex domestic violence epidemic happening.

Ignoring this idiotic, sexist OP for a second. I beg anyone reading this, if you or a love one is going through domestic abuse, or believe you are, I beg you, as someone who made the mistake of not taking action for so long, to not make the same mistake I did. It doesn’t matter if you are a man, woman, or nonbinary. Nobody deserves to go through such a difficult situation, much less to feel like nobody is one their side. (Like OP.) Please, call the  National Domestic Violence Hotline. Their number is  1-800-799-7233. You are not alone.

[knightofbalance-13]

There was one in Canada.

WAS being the key word because when the person who opened it did so, he was ridiculed, attacked and harassed over it all while the government never paid him enough to keep it going. Then he committed suicide.

… The funny thing is that I’m not making this up.

Imagine that the genders were reversed:

That a woman opened up a woman abuse shelter, the only kind in her country, and because of that was attacked until it failed and she killed herself.

If you’re disgusted by that image OP, you’re a hypocrite. Because the only thing that changed in that scenario is the gender.

[amkrii]

Sometimes you just want science to get to the point that you could throat punch someone through their phone line. That OP is one of those times.

[derpomatic]

There’s no funding for men’s shelters. There’s no real support for changing the laws to be equal either. “But feminists are working to change that!” No they aren’t, they have actively worked to prevent dv/da laws AND rape laws changing to protect men. Once again, feminism, like op, is cancer.

Americans rank Barack Obama as best president of their lifetimes: Poll

A Pew Research poll released yesterday says that most Americans rank former President Barack Obama as the best president of their lifetimes.

This is EXACTLY what we mean when we say OBAMA WAS THE MORE EFFECTIVE EVIL, not the lesser evil.   So, how does that assessment of Obama as the “hope and dreams” of the American working class pan out now?

Among other things, president Barack Obama: * Dropped bombs in 7 countries (all predominantly Muslim). * Sent 3,500 U.S. troops and tanks to Russia’s doorstep in one of his final decisions as president. * Ordered ten times more drone strikes than Bush. * Dropped 26,171 bombs in 2016 alone (an average of 72 bombs every day). * Put boots on the ground in Syria , despite 16 times saying “no boots on the ground”. * Despite campaign pledges, planned a $1 trillion progam to add more nuclear weapons to the US arsenal in the next 30 years. * Said, “I believe in American exceptionalism with every fiber of my being.” * Bragged about his use of drones  - I’m “really good at killing people”. * Deported a modern-record 2 million immigrants. * Just like Trump, separated immigrant children from their families. * Signed the Monsanto Protection Act into law. * Started a new war in Iraq . * Initiated, and personally oversaw a ‘Secret Kill List’. * Pushed for war on Syria while siding with al-Qaeda . * Knowingly Funded a Designated al-Qaeda Affiliate. * Backed neo-Nazis in Ukraine. * Supported Israel’s wars and occupation of Palestine. * Deployed Special Ops to 134 countries - compared to 60 under Bush. * Did a TV commercial promoting “clean coal”. * Drastically escalated the  NSA spying program . * Signed the NDAA into law - making it legal to assassinate Americans w/o charge or trial. * Given Bush absolute immunity for everything. * Pushed for a TPP Trade Pact . * Started a new war on terror - this one on ISIS . * Signed more executive memoranda than any other president in history. * Transferred more than $100 billion in arms sales to Saudi Arabia, more than any other administration in history. * Signed an agreement for 7 military bases in Colombia . * Opened a military base in Chile. * Touted nuclear power , even after the disaster in Japan. * Opened up deepwater oil drilling, even after the BP disaster. * Mandated the Insider Threat Program which orders federal employees to report suspicious actions of their colleagues. * Defended body scans and pat-downs at airports. * Signed the Patriot Act extension into law. * Launched 20,000 Airstrikes in his first term. * Continued Bush’s rendition program. * Said the U.S. is the “one indispensable nation” in the world. * Waged war on Libya without congressional approval. * Started a covert, drone war in Yemen. * Escalated the proxy war in  Somalia. * Escalated the CIA drone war in Pakistan. * Sharply escalated the war in Afghanistan. * Repealed the Propaganda ban, making it legal to spread government propaganda via news outlets. * Assassinated 4 US citizens with drone strikes.

“it isn’t as bad as it feasibly could be” or “they’re not locked in a torture dungeon on a skull-shaped volcano island” shouldn’t be your standard here

[durkin62]

Then why’d your group cover up the facts? Whyd they lie?

[siryouarebeingmocked]

And what about the kids who weren’t “stolen”, but were sent across without parents in the first place, which are supposedly the majority of the detained kids? Why don’t I see y’all talking about the “hell” those kids went through and act like all of them were taken from their parents?

If the conditions don’t matter, why keep talking like these are one step short of Nazi concentration camps? Why don’t you ever actually propose alternatives beyond a vague “not separating kids’? Why don’t you ever blame the parents who knowingly get their kids into this situation?

[2et5ub0u]

How do you know the kids are with their parents? Have you ever considered the possibility that human trafficking is a big fucking issue with kids who cross the border? Even if the majority of kids who cross the border are with their actual parents, should the small amount of kids being trafficked just be ignored?

100 Women: The artist redrawing ‘sexist’ comic book covers

An artist in India is challenging sexist drawings of women in comic books by parodying them using male heroes in poses typically associated with women.

She-Hulk has superhuman strength and speed and is one of the most formidable hand-to-hand combatants in the Marvel world.

Like Hulk, not only does she have physical power, she’s also completely green.

Yet, on a 1991 comic book cover, she is shown in a seductive pose, wearing a G-string bikini, with her curves sharply accentuated.

Indian artist Shreya Arora was shocked when she saw the image.

“For Hulk, the visual representation focuses on his strength. For She-Hulk, all we see is an emphasis on sexuality,” says Arora, who grew up reading comic books.

The 21-year-old graphic designer decided she wanted to flip the narrative.

[cisnowflake]

Why is depicting women as sexy considered sexist?

[siryouarebeingmocked]

The irony, of course, is that there already was a Spider-Man cover like that second one.

Also, this is literally judging a book by its cover. Heck, you’re even ignoring the self-aware speech bubble. The book actually starts with She-Hulk on a beach, so the cover is actually appropriate to the contents. And can I just-

LOOK AT SPIDEY’S CROTCH. LOOK AT IT. LOOK AT IT.

Yes, clearly we needed a view of Tony’s skintight bodysuit.

This is doing the same thing as the Hawkeye Initiative. It’s not clever or original.

[mightyoctopus]

There are blogs I’d expect to caption a Spiderman picture with “LOOK AT SPIDEY’S CROTCH. LOOK AT IT. LOOK AT IT.” and then there is this blog. Guess I was wrong.

[mornington-the-crescent]

The artist also completely failed to get the joke:

August, 1991, Demi Moore appears on the cover of “Vanity Fair” magazine, nude and pregnant. It caused quite an outrage, but the controversy lead to increased sales.

In December of the same year, Marvel decided to riff on that idea, showing She-Hulk in the same pose, with a beach ball instead of a pregnant belly. She even says, “It’s not FAIR to accuse me of VANITY“, a not-so-subtle nod to the famous magazine cover.

tl;dr: Artist is offended by someone else’s work, not understanding anything about the history or concept behind the artwork.

Why did they use iron man for the spider-woman pose and not like any other spider-person?

[thespectacularspider-girl]

Because they’re intellectually dishonest hacks who want to push the idea that there is something wrong with idealized bodies and/or because they want to push the idea of a double standard.

All for the purpose of getting more influence in power in the industry through shaming tactics.

[butt-princess]

also because the fact that iron man wears a robotic suit makes the pose look some how not anatomical or reasonable for a person to be in because it looks silly when a robot does it when a robot can be designed to be good at or ackward at anything and we associate robots with ackward movement like doing the robot dance and kids toys so its manipulating you on a psychological level

[msmarvel]

whoop there it is.

Are you fucking kidding me?

If “the nice apple-pie kid” is in the corner sniffing glue, everyone is asking about how our culture messed him up.  “Is it his parents?  Is it his friends?  Is it his teachers?  Is it the messages in the music he listens to?  Is it the media?  Where did he learn this?  How many other kids are doing this?  How do we, as society, stop this from happening?  Do we need stricter discipline?  Is it because he’s being pushed too hard?  Do we need to monitor kids more?  Monitor them less?  Do we need laws preventing the sale of glue?”

This isn’t just wrong, it’s a blatant fucking lie.

And if he shoots up a school, shedloads of people will immediately blame  toxic white masculinity, “””””gun  culture””””, and America in general.

Well Marvel AND DC are now gutter trash.

Who talks like this besides Tumblr goblins and Buttfeed writers?

We know she’s just mad cause they have more melanin than she’s used to seeing

[crimeshetyped]

Lol I used to work at target and know for a fact that that’s literally one aisle sandwiched between several containing several an array of bland white dolls why would you fake a struggle like this?? It’s so flawed 😩😂

[dynastylnoire]

^^^^^^^

White girls are so pathetic

[dollsahoy]

And…there’s absolutely no reason she couldn’t’ve bought one of those for her cousin, anyway? (I mean, no reason beyond “that cousin is probably being raised just like her and would do terrible things to the doll”)

[scribble-wizard]

i found this post on facebook this morning and went to My Generation to tally their dolls by skin color just to see how absolutely out of proportion the OP was blowing things. they have 106 dolls total on target’s website. 87 of these dolls are white. 46 of those white dolls are blonde. counting all their total dolls of color, you get 19 (and that’s being generous and tallying any exceptionally tan ones). only one of these dolls resembles someone east asian. so yeah, this lady only found 8 dolls (two of which are from seperate brands) and she’s still steamed when the brand she was looking at has 87 white dolls for her racist ass to choose from.

[kick-neckbeard-ass]

It got better!

“I’m only 19…”

91% said NO redemption for you

[timesalad]

This post went in 200 different directions

[derpomatic]

Of course, it’s all the alt-right!!!! No proof for that, and in fact it smacks of false-flagging leftists looking to stir anti-white sentiment with blatantly racist whypipo accounts. ”White girls are so pathetic “ - and of course Tumblr fell for it.

[great-tweets]

twitter is incredible

[adulthoodisokay]

oh man:

[lhazaar]

she didn’t lose her internship because “her friends” used a hashtag, she lost it because a bunch of 4chan fuckers found out she’s trans and decided to doxx her and harass her employer about the ~image~ she was sending. like this wasn’t her public face account, she wasn’t spouting racist garbage, she mistook someone in her mentions for one of the randos she gets regularly harassed by (because, yknow, if someone tweets “language” at you on twitter, 99.9% of the time they’re not actually concerned for you) and transphobes used the opportunity to fuck up her life. it’s great that hickam is behind her on this but a lot of people are sharing this and laughing at how hilarious it is that “a furry got fired for swearing”, which is the smokescreen being used to cover how this was doxxing a trans woman to ruin her potential career

[ranma-official]

This is what her friends have been sending him.

Then they invented fictional Nazis to blame even though Hickam himself explicitly stated that it’s her friends, who harassed him, who got her fired by using the NASA hashtag.

You are a liar, and a bad one at that.

[thespectacularspider-girl]

Yup.

The furries harassed him to the point where he deleted his own twitter, I believe.

[alexxdz]

>tell the boss of your boss to suck your dick >he is nice enough to let it go >shit head “friends” keep telling him to die ON THE NASA HASHTAG >”i- it was the 4chan nazi trolls!”
