Marx could have been so right if he wasn't so wrong.

OK, so I'm only gonna say this once and you can block/unfollow me/whatever after but: I am of the express belief that you can both forgive someone who's done horrible things in the past AND not forget WHAT they'd done or who they hurt.
Like genuinely, if you believe that people who have done bad things in the past are incapable of change, fuck you. Most people who have tried to turn their lives around after receiving punishment or realizing on their own what they did was wrong already probably got enough shit for what they did. And in many cases there's no forgiveness to be had from their victims, but we have GOT to stop with the narrative that you can't interact with ANYONE who's done another human being physical or emotional harm, because if they're really trying to turn their lives around for the better despite their past, you make it REAL fucking tough for them to do that.
And of course there are real huge exceptions to this; this post isn't about people who have done unspeakable, life-changing things to others-- it's about abusers who've taken effective anger management, bigots who realized they were in the wrong, criminals who've done their time for petty crimes, etc.
We need to stop thinking that people can't be forgiven at all for wrongdoing because it sets a standard of "if you do anything even remotely outside the law you are an unforgivable, unchangeable piece of shit that should kill themself" Kill the cop in your head and tolerate more of the people around you, assholes.

Girl help people who’ve never written anything are saying it’s bigoted to give queer, disabled, or poc characters flaws and depth and that its just a watsonian excuse for the writer to be bigoted. Yes that CAN exist (like the “she looks 12 but is actually 1000 years old! Bullshit) but to say it’s bigoted for a character to make stupid decisions or be mean with in-universe explanations (not justifications, explanations) in the writing, then you’re just trying to enforce the Hays Code Tumblr 2012 edition.

i downloaded the tumblr app just so that i could dunk this fucking comment.
you guys hate lesbians so fucking much. i swear to god i've seen maybe two posts from lesbians (not radfems) joking or complaining about men at chappell concerts. and yet i see multiple thousand note posts disavowing these women for being "exclusionist" or Whatever the fuck. we are literally inventing a problem like guys no this time i promise men are oppressed. guys i promise this time it's real. the cishets are in danger we need to save them from the mean scary lesbians oops i mean radfems :( meanwhile you all let terfs run rampant on this site.
i think it’s insane that chappell can say things like “i want to see more lesbians!” and people can see that as a BAD thing. i swear some of you are stupid on purpose because god fucking knows you wouldn’t see discourse about this if she hadn’t identified as a lesbian. like i’m sorry you all hate a woman looking for her community so bad and think it’s some kind of dogwhistle but i genuinely cannot help you.
i’m tired of self-righteous posts condemning lesbians for being upset at CISHET MEN in a queer space (and again, to be VERY clear. this is such a small minority of people complaining that i swear you’re looking for them on purpose so that you can whine and complain about the oppressed straight cis men.) like tell me have you ever seen a post where someone goes “god i hate those queer gay and trans men at chappell roan concerts. those guys specifically!!!” like do you know anyone even a little normal who would say that. or is it more important to let everyone know that lesbians looking for their space and their people is evil and we should let cis men come be straight at our shit. no thank you

like 50% of the notes on my 'tumblrinas when jesse sells meth to addicts instead of selling lemonade to fund his top surgery' are #he does both, #he does sell lemonade to fund his top surgery etc. Another 20% are people saying #sorry op i know everybody has already made this joke but he does sell lemonade to fund his top surgery
and yet the worst is the rest of the notes that are like. #nobody thinks that #op making up a guy to get mad at, etc. Like i wasnt in the trenches every single day at that point getting mad about the stupid shit people were posting about breaking bad
