not to be a “this whole website is one giant social experiment” but it honestly blows my mind on how tumblr has completely twisted the genuinely good philosophy of “be thoughtful and think critically of the media you consume” and turned it into this extremist mindset where something is either completely ideologically pure in every single way (which, bad news. is impossible) or it’s the work of Complete Evil and must be banned and ignored in its entirety if found to be slightly problematic. and from this mindset has blossomed a black and white lens on human nature and a terrifying 1 strike and you’re out system with no growth mindset whatsoever
the fact that the users on here decided to deflect this post by trying to go through my blog to find any “problematic post” i may have ever posted EVER so they have reason to cancel me and completely ignore my point is the most on-brand tumblr thing ever
and OP hasn’t been accused of anything btw. people are just reaching for reasons to cancel this post. I wonder why???? Could it be….. does it hit too close to the uncomfortable truth?
