Okay I’m pretty sure this happened on tumblr, when tumblr first implemented the little color-changing ‘t’ in the top corner of desktop mode. Someone immediately started complaining that it was ‘ableist’ and ‘dangerous’ to epileptic people. Of course, a bunch of people called them out saying how the colors didn’t change fast enough to cause a seizure and whatnot, fast forward a few days, the person gets blasted like discourse does, and instead of apologizing, they pose as their sister saying that the ‘t’ colors sent them into a seizure and ultimately a coma.
At least, this was what I thought of. Might not be the specific one op is talking about.
“Might not be the specific one op is talking about.”
how many times has this happened
I thought this was about the Hitler kin user
The whom?
Tumblr is a constantly evolving episode of The Twilight Zone
Didn’t the person with the “sister” claim she was also a stillborn too, therefore making her be alive to have a seizure impossible?
yeah, i remember VERY CLEARLY because they reblogged my post to make the claim that their sister was in a coma and died so a few people blamed me because at the time tumblrs reblog layout was changed and was confusing at first. they used a news article which was very easy to reverse search about a stillborn in like the 80s to try and pass off as their sisters obituary and kept claiming that she was born still and died of a seizure because of tumblrs logo. when people asked for stuff like proof that she was actually in a coma before they claimed she died, they kept saying their parents wouldn’t let them on the internet despite posting it on the internet or something. there was excuse after excuse after excuse and they couldn’t even prove they even had a sister in the first place.
