Today's lesson, Racism. If you see something written here that you’ve said or done, use it as an opportunity. Take it as a wake up call and make the decision to grow, change and be conscious of your own privilege. Remember, I am not a speaker for the entirety of a people.
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
I don’t like Riley/DTWPS, they are the one who actually inspired this blog title (this blog never talks about race, which is apparently the impression they have about me lulz). I don’t agree with some of their views and some of the obscene basic bitch shit they say.
But if they get shut down, you need to start a shitstorm with the Tumblr staff.
Women of color (especially black women and queer poc) on this website regularly the most vulgar harassment I have ever seen. As aggressive as I am, I’ve noticed that no one says mean shit to me bc 1- I don’t usually slip up as much and don’t give people room to make blanket moronic comments but more importantly 2- People don’t realize I am a woman of color. The one time I got horrible awful anonymous hate (die nigger bitch, etc)was the time I insulted Felice Fawn and people thought I was a black woman.
However you might feel about idiots like Riley, their politics are generally on point in their larger sentiments. As tactless as Riley is, nothing they do has warranted the hate they get from white supremacists. Nothing the black women on this website have ever said warrants that type of genocidal hatred, you have dumb bitches complaining about ‘native americans are whiners I had to go to Disney land a year later cos my crooked teeth needed braces’ and there is nothing threatening you could say to them (how far does kill whitey get you? does it bring up memories of lynch mobs? no i didnt think so).
Seriously, please plan on flipping your shit if Tumblr shuts down DTWPS but lets black women and queer folks tremble in fear.
Okay, I remembered it incorrectly. The bold is what I were I was thinking she said she was a black woman. I swear my head was like three seconds from explosion.
