Youtube witch: research with me! *opens pinterest*
… bffr
Is that what research means to some of you? Pinterest and random white mom self help-ish blogs you found on google? 💀
it bears repeating in a more gentle manner but in the nicest way possible, there is a really issue with discrepancy when you talk about issues happening in different countries. when it’s anti-trans/gay laws in north america and western europe, it becomes “genocide”. when other countries, like mine, have jail and death penalties for being gay explicitly, it becomes a matter of “oh it’s illegal there” and sometimes, insidiously, “that’s just how they are, they’re less progressive.” and i need you all to know this is white supremacy talking and i, a gay person living in a country under the threat of death penalty, am as much of a victim as you are.
GRADE SCHOOL SJWS stop using social justice language to explain shit to your conservative parents IT’S NOT GONNA GO THROUGH now all they have are some new words to make fun of. don’t tell your mom she’s being fatphobic tell her she’s being a dick
No, this is for real.
“I don’t think you raised me to treat/talk about/ talk to people like that” is an extremely powerful sentence. So is “it makes me sad when you say mean things like that.” There’s also “I wouldn’t like it if someone said rude things like that about you/my sibling/[other parent]/loved family figure.”
My parents don’t get that a lot of the comments they make about people are fatphobic, perisexist, transphobic, etc. (I’d say that my dad doesn’t know that the things he says are homophobic, but he does.) But they do understand that they told me to treat people respectfully all my life, and they hate being shown up as acting hypocritical.
(And for real I hate little more in this world than @mistresskabooms telling me I’m not acting the way I raised her to act.)
reblog to give a plushie to the person you reblogged this from
sometimes I reblog stuff from people I’m not following and I feel like I walked into a store and just stole stuff and walked out.
