It’s so fucked up how tiktok culture has made clout-poisoned people turn the public into content, every day I see people minding their business have their entire faces put online for thousands of likes, a couple kissing on the train, a lady dancing across a cross walk, a guy nodding his head to the music at a club, a lady buying a banana at the store, ring camera footage of the neighbors kids being stupid. Just let people live jfc
I think I may have made it seem like this is about wholesome content (which my sentiment towards that is the same) but most of the time when I see this stuff people are being ridiculed for being completely normal. And I didn’t make up any of these examples btw, I couldn’t find the dance one but only because there are too many videos of people being recorded at cross walks

Im gonna add this to every post about this i see im never gonna shut up about it. This will get people killed. This will ruin lives. More people live in hiding than you think. So many people are one post away from having to abandon their whole lives. Dont ever post anything of anyone without their consent, stranger or not.
If you are a white kid with a positive relationship (as in they are not abusing you and generally like you as a kid and want you to like them) with a casually racist family member have you considered guilt tripping them? It’s been a highly effective tactic with my grampa. When he used to pop off with shit I wouldn’t give him a dissertation like my mom and uncle did bcus he’d just dig in his heels and argue. Instead, I found a well placed “wow :( no it’s fine I just like idk. I didn’t know you were like that :(((( ” worked WONDERS. If you want to deradicalize people, don’t focus on writing essays for random trolls online. Just make your racist family feel bad for being racist. You might even be able to sneak some idk facts and logic into them after you’ve been doing that consistently while hanging out.
I’m middle aged now and have reached a status in my family and among my inlaws that I can even just douse them with a look of shocked disgust and they receive the message that what they’re saying is way out of line for their social strata.
It seems to be slowly making inroads with some of them, because they start thinking over the bullshit they’re parroting, and considering what about it is so nasty.
Letting them intellectualize their bullshit doesn’t work. It’s too comfortable for them to continue to regurgitate talking points they heard on talk radio. You gotta activate their anxiety about rejection, and prepare to actually do some rejecting.
If you want them to realize the ideas they’re spouting have real world consequences, then they need to see consequences can happen to them.
Bonus: my kid sees me reacting with overt disgust and learns that racism is disgusting and horrifying, rather than something to be calmly abstracted and divorced from reality.
a weird amount of Fandom People but internet leftists in general seem to be completely unable to separate discomfort from harm
there’s like zero consideration for what the scale or context is or if the discomfort is based on anything objectively harmful it’s just one person saying “i’m uncomfortable” with whatever motivations they might have and suddenly it’s causing grave harm to an entire group of marginalized people and anyone who doesn’t agree is a bad malicious person
this is how we get people banning depictions of pre op/non op trans people from trans zines bc one person is Uncomfortable with it and then it gets phrased as like. we are banning anything but the most perfect of cis passing trans people as a way of Combating harmful trans fetishizing and we are eternally grateful to this one guy who was uncomfortable with anything else. this is a real example btw
People should be uncomfortable occasionally. It’s good for you.
one time another trans guy accused me of trans fetishization because i drew a trans man who, quote, “looks like a girl”, and it was making him dysphoric, when the character in question was a self-insert based on the way i look irl
“this makes me uncomfortable” and “this is bad” are two ENTIRELY SEPARATE STATEMENTS and it is honestly STUNNING how many people conflate the two.
Even if something is upsetting to you that doesn’t mean it is harming you.
College Drop out that works at homedepot. Trans Dude. Pan AF. TERFS are dumbasses that dont understand gender theory. Anarcho-Socialist.
