the default way for things to taste is good. we know this because "tasty" means something tastes good. conversely, from the words "smelly" and "noisy" we can conclude that the default way for things to smell and sound is bad. interestingly there are no corresponding adjectives for the senses of sight and touch. the inescapable conclusion is that the most ordinary object possible is invisible and intangible, produces a hideous cacophony, smells terrible, but tastes delicious. and yet this description matches no object or phenomenon known to science or human experience. so what the fuck

With love and patience, I need folks to please set aside some time to get better at recognizing antisemitic dogwhistles.
I'm using the following as an example, but intentionally not singling out the person who put this on my dash, cause I'm talking about a broader issue, and I want everybody to self examine.
Okay. this ended up on my dash, a comment in a thread.

"noticing" is a dogwhistle for an antisemitic conspiracy theory.
let's look at the profile:
Tumblr media
^ "queen of white." gonna say that's a pretty big red flag for white supremacy.
we haven't even started looking through the blog yet, this is just the post & blog title.
if you go looking on the blog, pretty quickly you find this user is also reblogging from other white supremacists
if you scroll for about ~2 minutes you start seeing her use extremely loaded incendiary and derogatory language about trans women
finally, if you search "white" you see blatant nazi posting.
if you spend a little time familiarizing yourself with antisemitic dogwhistles, you will save time because you won't need to look through blogs to check, you will see "noticing" in that context and you will already know this is a nazi.
antisemitism is often one of the easiest ways for fascists to get their messaging to spread widely because very few people take the time to learn these dogwhistles, and a lot of people respond to Jewish people patiently pointing them out over and over again with some level of disbelief/resentment/hostility.
it is to everyone's benefit, for everyone's collective safety, for you to familiarize yourself with antisemitic dogwhistles.

Two questions for AO3 users giving into their racist and islamophobic tendencies within seconds (tendencies we’ve been calling out for years):
1) What would be gained politically or economically from attacking a fan fiction website? Quickly.
2) Find Sudan on this map
