What silly little songs do you duet with your f/o?

i am going to fetishize kinds of men you’ve only seen in your peripheral vision at the grocery store
Every few months I need to reinforce my t*rf wall by blocking a few dozen blogs. The way I do this is by blocking blogs that t*rfs tend to reblog from. Doesn’t matter if that blog isn’t a t*rf. If you let that many bugs through the crack I’m not trusting you.
You can usually find more people to block by turning on shinigami eyes and then scrolling through the notes of literally any popular post with a story where idiot man gets owned and acts like an idiot. Because he’s an idiot man.
Blocking people isn’t just about that one person btw. If someone is blocked they can’t reblog from you. That means they can’t show your post with a direct link back to you to all of their bigoted followers. If you don’t have the energy to block hundreds of people when there’s a hate campaign against you, figure out who’s popular in that community and block them. Block off the main distribution hub and the flow of hatred will slow down significantly. Because all the toxic people really do follow each other.
Even if they screenshot your post, then there won’t be a direct link back to you. This will keep all but the most dedicated hate anons away because if it’s a screenshot they have to actively search for you.
I’ve got over 32,000 followers. When your reach becomes that far you’re inevitably gonna have to start building some moats. Especially when you’re part of an oppressed group of some kind. Any kind, really. I live a relatively normal life on tumblr because I’m so strategic with the block button. Finding ways to shield yourself from a toxic ecosystem is basic tumblr self defense.
I don’t get antis sometimes. If you are uncomfortable about a trope, having people be unafraid to be open about said trope benefits you! If everyone can be honest about what they like, it reduces the chances that your friend of five years admits to being a closet fan of the trope you can’t stand.
If you want to avoid every human being that has ever thought positively about a trope, than bullying them into silence is not the way to go about that.
But that isn’t what you want is it. It isn’t about your comfort. Its about our discomfort.
It’s about controlling other people so that nothing that makes them personally uncomfortable exists. 😔
I agree, but I don’t think that goal specifically is even possible.
The best antis can realistically do is to get most fans to hide that they like said tropes. Which hurts people wanting to avoid certian types of people in the long run.
Oh definitely agree it’s not possible. But critical thinking and realizing that is not fancops’ strong point.
We’re crying! (happy)
