i hope this isn't like out of line for me to say but sometimes i get offended (<- very mildly not like actually offended) at the white tumblr user stereotypes like surely nobody could actually be that cringe we arent that bad and then i see people being exactly that cringe if not more so. so like okay.

#i dont want to separate myself from whiteness im not immune to blind spots or ignorance or even just plain being embarrassing #but jesus christ theres a difference between unavoidably hitting a blind spot or being ill equipped to talk abt smth due to privilege #and like. very shamelessly displaying your ignorance on a neon sign with no intent to improve.#avpost #this is only a little bit about last rb its mostly about the entire wave of discourse going on right now wrt rap #how are people still in 2024 like i dont listen to rap its all violent and misogynist.#literally fox news talking points a DECADE AGO how are people still this far behind i dont. GET IT?#and to be so proud and bold about it too.#let me give you guys some advice if you encounter a blind spot for you you ARE allowed to not tell anyone and just quietly learn more.#youre allowed to just make an effort to improve yourself and listen to people who dont have the same privileges.#you dont have to stand up and get loud about your own ignorances! nobody is forcing you to make a stupid comment!!
