#tw xenophobia

[phantom-of-the-memes]

The far right have started serious riots in Dublin in response to a stabbing by an immigrant.

I don’t even need to go into how him being an immigrant is fucking irrelevant, and making this about your fascist opinions is taking away the attention from the actual victims. You guys are smarter than to fall for that.

Gangs of white Irish men are destroying the city; setting cars, buses, and shops on fire. They’re posting videos of them laughing as they smash out the windows of buses and shops and loot the place.

This is the right wing’s politics. “Immigrants are destroying Dublin”… says the people actively smashing the place to bits.

Please stay inside if you live in the centre. Especially for immigrants/ people of colour/ trans people / queer people/ any group that white supremacists target.

For those that don’t know, tonight (October 25th) there has been a series of mass shootings with multiple suspects involved in Lewiston, Maine, USA.

There are 18 confirmed deaths so far and 60+ injured with 2 locations involved. The shooter(s) have not been caught, multiple counties are on active lockdown with shelter-in-place orders.

The primary suspect is a white man from a military background in firearms, Lewiston has one of the largest concentration of refugees in the state, and anytime the Lewiston/Auburn area gets any news coverage, there is an increase in hate violence against all of the people of color in the area.

People and news outlets are absolutely going to try to spin this to place blame on the immigrant and refugee communities in the area. It is so vital that people combat this racist misinformation.

Maine is a small, rural state without the resources or infrastructure for anything like this. Hospitals are overwhelmed, even with backups being called in from New Hampshire and Massachusetts. I'll post updates and fundraisers for the community as they come up. I'm so worried for my community.

With all the antisemitism taking place and the number of people denying that reality, I think it’s time to bring this comic back.

Cause a lot of goyim sound like this right now.

I've been ia for a while because of how lowkey hostile this community has become lately, and I will probably continue to be so until there's a proper resolution, whatever it may be. However, I've seen some stuff that has been said by some of the ex qsmp admins in the midst of them recounting their experiences that I cannot help but be greatly bothered by, and, as a non english speaker, is important for me to say.

The way that they have been bashing quackity for making statements in spanish, his native language, and for streaming in the time zone he lives in, is not okay. I've said in another post about how disgusting I think these kind of comments are, and being an affected party in the admin situation does not make you an exception in my opinion.

The admins have every right to talk about what they went through, their feelings are valid and they absolutely deserve compensation for their work, because they were treated horribly, there's no doubt about that, but they are not immune to criticism, especially if it's about casual xenophobia. This does not stop at lèa's interview, as lumi also didn't have a spanish translation for her document, something that prior to the interview, I didn't think about too much, but now, I can't stop thinking about. Mind you, when it comes to xenophobia, there is absolutely no denying what the french and brazillian communties went through, but you do not fight xenophobia with xenophobia.

I completely understand that it's not easy to be the one to speak about any type of abuse they suffered, I said before that because of how shitty this situation is, that all sides would make mistakes and choices that people would not like, and for me this is one of them. As stressful as it must be for them, the ex admins have a lot of eyes on them right now, and saying these kind of things have consequences; I have seen way too much xenophobia towards the hispanic community and it's actively horrible to see because, unlike other times, the other communities are seemingly ignoring it. A twitter post saying that you do not condone harrasment does not erase what you publicly said previously.

I'm gonna be honest there's more that I did not like about that interview, the way that lèa talked about the admins that are still on the team, her response to the fact that she leaks stuff... I just... didn't like it, but I wanted to talk about the whole "quackity spoke spanish" thing because it's something that I feel really strongly about. It is NOT easy to make any statements in a language that you do not natevely speak, let alone very important ones, no matter how good you are at it, to write all of this it took me two hours and I probably still made mistakes or misspoke somewhere.

I do not how to end this post, I'm just frustrated that this fandom now goes at each other throats at littlest things without question or critical thinking and that xenophobia is now so normalized. I just... expected better I guess

im writing this while im shaking and crying so i don't know if something i say will be misspelled but i feel the need to tell everyone who went thru so much shit just for being asexual, i feel you. I feel you so much and it hurts as hell, i still do therapy to heal myself for so many things i went thru when i was so young and had no idea that "there was nothing wrong with me. I could have said no. But it's not my fault i didn't said no. It was not my fault for being manipulated to do stuff i didn't wanted and that just made me uncomfortable and disgusted. It was not my fault and there is nothing wrong with me." For everyone who's aspec, aro, ace, aroace you guys are amazing, you are valid, you exist and your existence is enough there is nothing wrong with you and you are not alone. I felt alone and i still feel alone for being aroace to this day, im still figuring things out but i know im not alone. I know that. Not only that but also there was a lot of xenophobia and racism happening towards us, brasilians. This is awful, makes me feel sick and heartbroken. But im also proud to be who i am, im proud to be brasileira im proud to be aroace. Your hateful comments makes you a sad existence, it's terrifying to know that people can say so much shit without a single feeling of empathy. To everyone who felt hurt, who had to deal with anxiety, everyone who also had a hard time seeing so much hate, to you who still in pain, im so so sorry, im so sorry this is happening but we are in this together, you are not alone. Don't be afraid to be yourself, be proud of your nationality be proud of your roots and don't be afraid to bloom be who you are, be proud of your sexuality be proud of your identity be proud of your existence. Im so happy you are alive. A lot of hugs and love, we need it.

Be kind. (to yourself too)

Estamos todos juntos, um grande abraço do fundo do meu coração, vai ficar tudo bem ok? Tamo junto ❤️‍🩹

[autismvampyre]

the fucking arrogance and blatant nationalism in the way europeans declare polce brutality a "US problem" as if americans are the only people with a corrupt system

my leftist swedish mother actually agrees with ACAB with the addendum that it's only the Americans, we're not like that here

let the brutal forced used on greta thunberg, a swedish teenager protesting climate change, by dutch police be a testament to the lie of european "democracy" and how it is democracy in name and nothing else.

let the immigrant kids who are brutalized, humiliated and oppressed every day in sweden by cops who "protect and serve" serve as a reminder of how incredibly flawed we are.

let the 700% increase in death by cops in sweden in the last ten years show us how we are no better than the americans we condemn.

we are not better. you are buying into propaganda if you think this doesn't apply to your country too

A year ago I would've been so happy for Taylor, but nowadays whenever I think about her I can't help but think about Ana and how she didn't give a shit about her and was able to move on like nothing happened. She wouldn't do the same if Ana was American. She would say her name, wouldn't make her death about her, would pay a real homage to her like she did with Ronan. But Ana was a Latin American girl, a black girl, while Taylor is just another rich white woman who pretends to care about minorities only when it benefits her. At the end of the day money is going to be the most important thing to her.

¿Están migrando a Tumblr? Bienvenidxs <3 Solo para decirles que por aquí no toleramos la xenofobia (en especial dirigida a los franceses o brasileros) o el odio sin sentido. Aquí no aguantamos estupideces ☺️💖

[linimoonlight]

(I usually try to not to engage in the negative side of this community but wanted to say something at least)

I'm so sorry for what the brazilians and Cellbit have to go though. Its not ok and not fair and i wish all the best to all of you <3

People who are hateful, xenophobic, racist, homophobic, sexist and all of those things dont have a place in this community. These people dont deserve a place here and as much as they claim to be part of this community they arent actually part of it. Because they dont understand or embrace what this community is all about.

This server and community is about celebrating our differences and finding our similarities. Its about learning new things and excepting and loving people for who they are. Its about sharing languages and cultures and connecting. And i hope that (despite everything) we will continue to do that one step at a time <3

[greyyson-but-no]

as someone on the aspec i know what it's like to be forced to come out and it fucking sucks. I can't even imagine how fed up with everything cellbit is, especially after seven years of this shit. its a horrible situation to be in and he doesn't deserve it. please, if you are still siding with his ex-girlfriend get away from my blog and if you want to read the full document cellbit has released about this I'll reblog this post with the link. it explains everything in detail and there are some very very sensitive topics spoken about in it so be wary about that, but it clears his name and that's what is important.

if anybody uses this situation to further be aphobic towards him or anybody you can happily go fuck yourselves. you are pieces of shit for that. and if anybody uses this situation to be xenophobic towards the brazillians and their community, simply fuck off. you don't deserve to have a voice about this situation.

I really hope this doesn't effect cellbits platform (obviously anymore than it already has) and I hope he can take time to recover from this all. its a disgusting thing to have happened but it has, and now we can only work on making him feel appreciated and taking down everyone that has been xenophobic and aphobic as a result of this situation.

Tw: Xenophobia, Misogyny, Hate

[astorichan]

Can't believe I have to say this, but. People. Behaviour like this is not okay.

Even foregoing the fact that I am not even Russian - this is fucked up on so many levels. Russian people - especially young fandom teenagers, which this person seems to think I am, which this person seems to be targeting - are not responsible for the war, nor are they capable of stopping it. Bullying people on the Internet to jerk off doesn't make you a hero that Ukrainians need right now. Russian-speaking Ukrainians exist and are prevalent in many Eastern regions of the country. People can be multilingual. Russian people do not equal Putin. Harassment is never okay. Coming back to comment again after your comment has been deleted is not okay. Xenophobia is never okay.

What the fuck.

@ao3org tagging to bring a little light to this. I am not much affected by this, but this person might target someone more vulnerable in the future.

[rakkuntoast]

im just so sad cuz most of this situation that happened with cellbit started AND was fueled by pure xenophobia towards the brazilian community over on twitter

people kept looking for an excuse to hate on them and decided to resurface shit to justify their hate. so much of a community that is supposed to "unite everyone"

[alltoowsll]

In case yall follow her 👇 she assaulted a Colombian girl, there were 4 colombian swifties who were in their places in line, one of them left to buy food, when she returned to her place this girl accused her of having sneaked in the line, insulted her and then assaulted her, she's violent and xenophobic

btw taylor nation retweeted her and then realised who she was and undid the retweet.

[toss-a-coin-to-your-stan-account]

the fact that the top post in the witcher tag is still the fucking clickbait article screenshot posted by a racist xenophobic homo/transphobe that says "ummmm lauren was actually ANNOYED about henry's enthusiasm on set" makes me want to bash my goddamn head into a wall
