First of all a MASSVE thank you to @frosted-pumpkins for helping me with the writing <3
I fell hard on this ship because I’m weak for interclass romance, but wanted to be realistic about the issues that come with it. All I ask is for PD to be a kind and loving matriarch and for Jasper to have had a good love life under her rule (▰´◡`▰)
Have you perhaps spotted Mario’s neck? I’ve looked for it everywhere!
I know where they both are! The reason Luigi has so much neck is because he took Mario’s neck. The reason Mario has so much chin is because he took Luigi’s chin.
claiming a group isn’t oppressed because another group have issues that this group does not have
ignore the needs of the group, erases history and refuse to acknowledge their struggles
sabotage the image of the group, painting them as invaders, as leeches
mislabelling the group as oppressors
describing identities as arbitrary and not relevant to social classes
claiming the group is appropriating the struggles of a similar group, or the community they wish to join
claiming this group is not real, and just oppressors trying to identify out of their privilege
literally painting the marginalised group as worse than their actual oppressors
holding the group at higher standards to claim they are too bigoted or violent to be welcomed
using a small number of people to justify not standing for their rights
and talking about the identity as a beehive mind and a movement
i am still quite surprised at how universal this list is.. like i had a few very specific groups in mind but.. really.. this is all so reoccurring, it is all incredibly common, and a very dangerous mindset that manifests in many different kinds of ideologies.. and i feel we just in general need to see right through whatever they brand it as.. and acknowledge that gatekeeping and silencing minorities is in general quite common, and quite dangerous… and it can often even be done by other people whom are also marginalised.
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
