Just a gentle reminder for tumblr users with anxiety, panic disorders or who get nervous quickly: 

– Chain mail, “reblog this or..” posts etc. don’t work. They’re not real. Nothing bad will happen if you don’t forward that mail or reblog that post. 

– “If you don’t reblog this, you’re a bad person” is a lie. You’re not a bad person for not clicking a button. 

– You are allowed to unfollow blogs that post triggering contents. 

– You’re not weak or a crybaby for avoiding things that are triggering. Far from it, you’re taking care of yourself. That’s amazing! 

Oh stars. I actually really needed this

I gave up Holier-Than-Thou ‘Social Justice’ back at the end of 2015 when I realized it was neither productive nor appropriate.

1) it makes you stressed out chasing and giving off the image that you are perfect and free of mistakes or ‘problematic behaviors’

2) it stops you from growing as a person and activist

3) it makes you come across as an actual asshole

4) it makes you defensive in the face of being held accountable. You think you can do no wrong and do not respond well to any challenge of that.

5) it makes you blow things way out of proportion. You get so busy trying to be Wokest of Them All that you’ll argue and send incredibly aggressive and sometimes violent messages to people over things like iPhones.

6) you start to lose sight of your goals as a person passionate about social equality. It’s all a performance now.

I learned before I got really bad and I’m so much better for it.

I’m reblogging this not as a nock on online activism or the stuff we do, but rather the culture that’s formed around it and warped how we do it. All of this is relevant and its become a bad place with unproductive “activism.” There’s a better way.
