white person repeatedly talking over poc on poc issues, only bringing up racism when it's relevant to their cheap fandom arguments, crying foul over people blocking them over it? don't worry, their white friends will still high five them and hail them as champions against racism 🙃

if people are like "your tone is really rude and it makes any attempt to talk to you deeply unpleasant." and you're like "that's only valid feedback if you're willing to have an extended direct conversation about it with me off anon." you are setting up a very obvious catch-22

actually this pretty much sums it up

screenshot of a tumblr text post reading ‘uh…I’m gonna let other people take the lead on this, but that does seem to me, a white person, to’ the rest of the text has been blacked out and replaced with text reading ‘[continues to talk]’

i just think it's funny that people who would have full scale public meltdowns (complete with wild accusations) whenever anyone blocked them are now saying "just block us if you don't want to see our posts!" people WERE blocking you and you called it bullying and ostracisation lmao! we can't win.

some of you don’t actually care about POC, do you? you just want to collect us like pokémon cards that you can throw out when they stop being valuable to you

if you disagree with us, then we must be white or white adjacent and can be thrown in the discard pile as well

yupppp the final straw for me was when they wouldn’t listen to what some of us were saying several weeks ago and then accusing poc of being white for disagreeing with them, like. lmfao. they are having the opposite effect. they are driving poc off. it’s exhausting. I’m tired of it.

now im pissed the fuck off

i’m not going to speak for anyone else but this exact behavior is what keeps pushing me off tumblr. they don’t actually care about listening to POC bc they can’t STAND to listen to POC who disagree with them. it’s fucking exhausting

🌻 @hexcrystals.bsky.social · Jun 24

thank you so much to this unnamed tumblr user for proving my exact point.

this isn't about racism. the people mentioned in my post are not being anti-racist, they're just being shitty. there are poc who've been ran out of this fandom by these white people insisting their perspectives are invalid.

a screenshot showing my statement, 'many many people have tried to politely tell these folks that they're being rude and they're acting like the fandom cops and so on. nothing works.' followed by 'translation: you're ruining my racism waaaaaaaaaaaah'

anyway goodnight folks. i will leave you with the following questions to Ponder: is it a clique or is it a group of people who chat and interact bc they’re friends who are nice to each other? and are they excluding you bc they’re mean or are they just not friends w you bc you make them feel unhappy?

people online are not entitled to your energy. you are not obligated to make space in your life for people you don’t know and who exhaust you. even if you think they probably mean well, nobody is owed your direct engagement and attention.

fox 🏳️‍🌈🏴‍☠️ @asneakyfox.bsky.social · Jun 24

but, listen, if you get to the point where you are actively deterred from posting stuff on tumblr because you find yourself predicting exactly what some specific person is going to say about it and feeling too exhausted to want to deal, it's time to block. don't let yourself be run off a platform.

the bulk of the behavior that's running people off tumblr, also, is not even ostensibly about racism; it's stuff like constantly showing up to scold anyone who writes crackships, or who affectionately dunks on stede, or who mentions jack without pausing to specify that he's pure evil.

I don’t really want to speak about this more than I have because again, I don’t come to fandom for any of this, I come here to escape the horrors of my real life, but here is the post I made at the time in the face of all this with more of my thoughts, if you want em 💖 www.tumblr.com/soupbtch/783...

Tumblr is a place to express yourself, discover yourself, and bond over the stuff you love. It's where your interests connect you with your people.
