antisemitic conspiracy theories about jewish power/money/influence work to obfuscate real power dynamics to shield the ruling class from rightful anger and criticism. that’s how antisemitism has always worked: create a scapegoat to divert attention away from yourself, a buffer between the oppressed and their oppressors. as a leftist if you are committed to exposing and dismantling systems of power and you engage in this type of rhetoric you are hurting yourself and the validity of your own movement. i shouldn’t have to frame this as “antisemitism is not beneficial for you” but since so many of you still don’t get it this is what it has to take. antisemitism doesn’t just endanger jews, it hurts all of us committed to the same goal. the sooner we realize that, the closer we can come to actually achieving it.
capitalism is fucking scary because it will commodify literally anything. it commodifies the rebellion culture that is supposed to strike against the system but capitalism turns it into “punk rock”. it commodifies spirituality to make you buy self help books that teaches you to stay away from capitalism. it commodifies minimalism and makes you buy things to maintain your minimalist aesthetic. it commodifies global warming, one of the deadliest consequences of capitalism itself and guilt trips you into buying “green products”. it commodifies itself and creates the idea that vanity is fashionable. it will eat everything up.
Hey guys I know I don’t post or talk as much as I’d like on here but my sister and I really need some help. See this adorable little guy here:
His name is Elijah and he’s my nephew. He was born with a rare hand deformity and also diagnosed with autism. He had his first surgery last year.
He’s going to need another one now to separate his middle and ring finger in order to help it’s growth. Unfortunately, the insurance isn’t going to cover everything. She’s a single mother with two kids who have special needs. She applied for SSI and disability for Elijah but he was denied because of her income. I would greatly appreciate it if you could donate to the GoFundMe link below and if not, could you please reblog this for others to see. PLEASE AND THANK YOU!
controversial but in my many years as a minor on tumblr i’ve never seen a single sex worker. they always block minors, mark their blogs as nsfw, and don’t spam the popular sfw tags. even if you, as a minor, actually look for them, as long as you listed your age truthfully in the registration, you won’t be able to find them.
what i, instead, saw as a minor was:
porn bots (which could be stopped by: captcha, double confirmation for accounts, not allowing url shorteners, not allowing rebloggers to delete captions, i would even be ok with hyperlinks not being allowed in reblogs)
fetishes and kinksters (which could be stopped by: adding more tags to the nsfw filter, including fetishes/kinks that appear as sfw)
people who forget tag their shit (which could be stopped by: an auto-tagging system for sensitive tags that would work similarly to the current block for apparently nsfw posts, but can give the op the option to delete incorrect tags)
pro-ana, pro-mia, romanticization of self-harm (which could be stopped by: banning the whole tag, as it just happened)
nazi, terfs (just kick them out for hate speech like twitter does)
pro-map thankfully only appeared once i was already past 18 but of course you could just ban the whole community + tag as it just happened.
prevent usernames with words that hate and pedophilic groups use to flag from being chosen at blog creation.
while i know that tumblr is a 13+ website, nsfw content was hidden from minors last year. most cp was deleted + outlawed (both irl and drawn) for good not even last month. and while those are recent changes they did make tumblr, overall, 13+ appropriate.
i do not care much for porn, i just feel like they are solving the problem the wrong way and punishing a group of people who did nothing to harm minors. there were smarter solutions to this problem that were ignored in the favor of a very sloppy solution that doesn’t even cover stuff like sfw kink blogs, porn bots who don’t post pictures (most of them), people who just won’t tag their nsfw, hate groups and other non-sex related communities who are extremely dangerous for minors.
