this is part of a larger point that i don't feel i can make constructively on this website but i think a lot of people need to realize that internet skirmishes between relatively well-to-do white teenagers do not constitute an axis of oppression. i mean this as benignly as possible but some of you need to develop thicker skin

#speak friend and enter #are people oppressed for being lgbt? absolutely. but there's a difference between experiencing oppression and just dealing w an asshole #and a lot of the white on white violence that's at the heart of a lot of the discourse on this site is #rooted in people's 'cope and seethe' instinct not being sufficiently developed. like process that however you want #but don't develop a victim complex about it. yknow?#and also as a disclaimer I'm not trying to conflate this phenomenon with the very real transmisogyny and antiblackness on tumblr #which is a very rampant problem that really needs to be addressed #but i think if a lot of the parties involved in niche micro community discourse grew up about it we'd get a lot further
