"a 2020 survey found that the richest Americans showed the strongest support for defunding the police, while the poorest reported the lowest support. Throughout the remainder of that year and into 2021, murder rates throughout the US soared as a result of defunding policies, officers retiring early or quitting, and police departments struggling to recruit new members after the luxury belief class cultivated an environment of loathing toward law enforcement.
Consider that compared with Americans who earn more than $75,000 a year, the poorest Americans are seven times more likely to be victims of robbery, seven times more likely to be victims of aggravated assault and 20 times more likely to be victims of sexual assault. And yet many affluent people are calling to abolish law enforcement."
Rob Henderson's concept of luxury beliefs is very interesting. Like myself, Rob Henderson is a former foster kid who went to college. He wrote a memoir on his experiences and notably has made certain observations on the college elite's "progressive" mindset. Rob exposes how the elite politically correct push backwards beliefs to demonstrate their social status.
As a woman who aged out of foster care, one of the things I was told by my social worker was that foster kids often become homeless when they age out of the system and that the girls become prostitutes. It was a great fear of mine that I would become homeless and that my fate would be to be a prostitute because there was simply no other forms of support. When I encountered liberal feminists who claimed that "sex work is work" it was shocking. You would think that feminists would try to be allies to girls from foster care and that they would be concerned by the high rates of sex trafficking and sexual exploitation that they encounter. But these "activists" do not care about foster kids. They push a harmful lifestyle because it's a luxury belief. They live privileged lives and can do Only Fans from their bedrooms meanwhile girls that age out of foster care often end up homeless.
The more that I look into social justice warriors, the more I realize that they really have antagonistic attitudes towards less fortunate people - especially girls from foster care.

that cs/m content warning post got put on my dash, and it reminded me i saw someone making fun of it, and i still cant believe it. like i guess u can nitpick parts of it not being perfect (which is also strange because i dont see anyone else really posting their own superior one), but the person essentially referred to the entire thing as a "callout", and laughed at the idea of that and its like ???
#personal#i think the blog was res/evil or smth. idk i blocked them and their friends who interacted w the post#idk i think its VERY weird to be like 'its an adult show lol who'd have thought thered be mature content LMAO'#so very conservative of you. will you call them a sjw snowflake next perhaps#their blog icon and header is c/sm related too so its like. just say u stan it or whatever and go lol#also theyre definitely one of those edgy aesthetic former kinnie carrd blogs who are way too obsessed w mutuals#and i swear half of them were flat out misinterpreting that doc to join in w their friend to mock it#and just extreme nitpicking in general#man its just like. apparently they remembered it from months ago too. why did i see their post on my dash...

i've gotten to a point where i genuinely can't stand hasan and think he's legitimately bad for the new wave of Pop Leftism that's supposed to help introduce new people to progressive ideas...but at the same time. i have crippling adhd and watching him watch other ppl's videos and stop every five sentence to go "huh? wah??? so (describes what just happened)??? that's crazy bro" actually helps me retain the information better. my cross to bear i suppose
#frankie.txt#i don't even have any complex reasons for disliking him#i just think he says a lot of abelist and misogynist shit and gives too much airtime to like. bad faith tweets#its annoying#and not great as a thing to expose centrists/former right wing ppl to#when they already see progressives as Crazy SJWs

While I'm ranting about fandom, I have really mixed feelings about posts that are like "back in the day, we never cared about what anyone else was doing and you could write/draw/ship whatever you wanted with no backlash."
Because on the one hand, yeah, there was a much higher tolerance for dark content 10+ years ago, and I do miss that. Antis are bad, sui-baiting people for drawing cute art on one account and NSFW on another is bad, whump is excellent and I wish there were more of it.
On the other, said tolerance didn't exist everywhere and you're kidding yourself if you think it was a fandom-wide virtue. Ship wars were vicious and frequently involved judging female characters as sluts unworthy of $hero because they'd kissed another guy onscreen one time. There were plenty of places you weren't allowed to write anything but fluffy canon het or get judged. I think it mainly feels like there was some golden time of everyone being Okay With Anything just because we didn't have these massive sites where you were rubbing shoulders with everybody. On LJ, it was very easy to just interact with the other people who liked the same stuff as you.
And also on the other, the rise of antis/criticism of dark stuff/etc. went hand-in-hand with the rise of social justice awareness in fandom, and I have strong memories of people really resisting any analysis or discussion relating to bigotry or subconscious bias in canon or fanon because get out of here SJW! It's all made up and meaningless! Pretty much everyone was sorted into either the social-justice-aware camp or the called-people-SJW-unironically camp, and the former was going to be critical of what message your fic or fandom participation was carrying (in terms of sexist tropes, ship statistics, and so on) while the latter was going to be hostile to you saying you were offended or disturbed by anything at all.
I remember one time toward the end of Fandom_Wank (after UnfunnyBusiness had been split off to talk about conflicts involving -isms because people had come to recognize that not all drama is equal) when someone brought up an old wank involving people upset that in a particular fandom's AUs, the characters of color would frequently be turned into literal animals while the white characters were still human. Originally, they had been mocked because this was obviously trivial and not racist, it was just random chance which characters got turned into animals, etc. But at that time, post-RaceFail, everyone agreed that it was really messed up. And that's what I think about every time the "people used to not care about what you wrote" topic comes up.

Normally I don't discuss big drama topics like this on my quirky little Tumblr blog, but there's something about the whole HBomberGuy plagiarism video that truly fascinates me.
It's the way Internet Historian fans reacted to it.
Illuminaughtii fans were pissed at what she did and viewers were calling her out for years, especially after what she did to her former colleagues. AVGN fans have been dissatisfied with the state of his content for a while now, James Somerton practically betrayed his audience and Filip Miucin is so beloathed that I deadass forgot his name while writing this and thought his name was Patrick.
Basically everyone saw what these creators did and we're collectively either unsurprised or disappointed to say the least. Internet Historian fans however, they were probably the most vitriolic community during this entire event. They were quick to either label the video a hit piece, claim Bomberman was slandering IH, discredited the video because of Bomberman's political views and friendship with HassanAbi (despite a majority of the video going after a left leaning LGBT analyst..) and in general, just kinda meat riding IH.
I don't think Bomberman went about the IH stuff perfectly, I definitely believe he had some hang ups with him due to IH's more...let's just say 'Chud' style of humor and the audience he cultivated. But to say the entire segment or even the whole video was a Historian hit piece is misguided at best and dishonest at worst. Historian might be reserved, but there's no denying that his silence regarding the plagiarism allegations kinda did lead to a snowball effect, people are too familiar with false copyright claims and some were a bit..too eager to bring the Jews into this. Yes he did resolve a lot of this, but there's a level of distrust I feel now, like how I feel with the other examples Bomberman used, if they were willing to do it once, what's stopping them from doing it again just with an even more obscure source? Historian and some of the others don't even have the algorithm breathing down their necks because they upload as frequently as Deltrarune chapters come out, so why not take time to come up with your own shit?
This is why I found the sudden nosedive into politics so...bizarre, because I didn't see this with the other supporters, not even Somerton and he's arguably the most political creator of the group.
If I were to armchair psychology my way into some kinda explanation, I'd probably have one of two reasons:
Internet Historian is a beloved creator who many people consider a trustworthy and extremely creative individual, and hearing him be accused of something scummy can have the most loyal fans feeling a bit wounded and defensive. I was definitely a huge fan of his work before the Bomberman video hit, I probably watched The Fall of 76 ...76 times? So learning it was made by someone willing to pull from someone else's work and pass it off as his own, it kinda stung.
The second (and let's be honest more likely) possibility is that there's political motivation behind it. No one can deny that Historian has appealed to more 'Anti SJW' crowds before, those people tend to be either more right leaning, center leaning or left leaning but don't like the way extremists behave. If you watched any video about Tumblr IH has made, it's quite clear whether intentionally or not what kinda audience he appeals to. Likewise, when the one person IH's audience despises the most (a leftist commentator, male feminist and someone actively criticizing IH) shows up, their instinctual reaction is to cry 'woke libtard getting mad at gigachad meme man'.
The reason all of this frustrates me, and why I even crawled out of my comfort zone of posting random crap and gay Homestuck drawings, is because it's a genuine example of political brainrot and creator dickriding muddying the waters of the discussion being had. Like Bomberman or not (I like his shit but don't always agree with his takes) you have to admit his video opened the floodgates for people actually kinda giving more of a shit about plagiarism online than before, highlighting how easy it is to get away, how there's almost nothing you can do about it law wise unless you're REALLY lucky and how much it can hurt genuinely talented or marginalized people.
And I'd hate for us to just ignore that conversation because you don't wanna admit your favorite funny internet guy might not be the best person.
Here's an unrelated picture of Wurmple eating soup.

can u expand on the whole twitter in 2014 tumblr era thing? thank u and sorry im just a twitter hater tbh
Tumblr was a bit more of a pvp infested place before then, so you'd see more drama and discourse appear on your dash, especially by some notorious tumblr users or "funnymen" as some would describe them, who turned out to have had a pretty dark history to say the least. There was also the issue of fandom policing, because you didn't exactly have any creative liberties without some teenager wanting to start a fight with you and subsequently write a callout post. There was also this whole "sjw vs anti-sjw/egalitarian" aspect of US-political issues that held no nuance in the previous political environment, but people would grow out of it. For the most part, people didn't exactly have a proper political identity until the Trump administration turned people more leftist, whereas the rest of the conservative circle moved to Twitter as Tumblr's userbase became increasingly leftist and hostile towards right-wing ideologies.
Indeed, many of my friends are now leftists after previously conforming to right-wing rhetoric.
But I think the porn ban led many tumblr individuals to make some dumb exodus to Twitter for some reason, finding tumblr to become less accessible for various marginalized groups, like SWERS. This is quite ironic, since porn or SWERS were stigmatized by the very same people who migrated to Twitter.
I think those who remained on tumblr simply grew out of their former thinking, since most people today are in their 20's and 30's, while twitter still has a large teenage userbase.
I may not be articulating this well, so people can fill in if they wish to.

Is the conservative / edgy eastern European gay the only other side of Tumblr besides SJW tumblr?
Your choice on tumblr is to follow either American white west coast liberal art grad polycule enbie or a Balkan European Stalinist fascist homosexual. Somehow the former is more likely to desecrate human remains and openly call for genocide.

Read number 6 and then read it again.
The challenges for former foster youth who age out of the system are cumulative and being a former foster kid is a bigger obstacle to higher education than being in a low income family, being a first generation newcomer, or being a particular race or gender alone.
Let me ask you again - WHY do social justice warriors IGNORE foster care and hyperfixate on race and LGBT?
When will the discussion of foster care move on from a mere mention in the abortion debates?

Some sloppy thoughts
I’m sure it’s been said before but it’s funny how tricky it is for people to balance, like, a belief in/hatred of progressivism and a hatred of/proclaimed love for The West and White Culture, when the West, is, like, more progressive than the not-west.
SJW-types and alt-right types both trying to draw a link between Whiteness and, like, homophobia, when the white countries are the least homophobic ones. Like the west is the place where they *don’t* punish homosexuality with death. Why are the hell are the alt-right supporting it!? Like the alt-right types want to ‘defend western culture’ (which they define as conservatism (and also Being Better Than Everyone Else In Whatever Way)), and the far-left-types want to attack ‘western culture’ (which they also define as conservatism (but also Being Worse Than Everyone Else In whatever Way)). But the definition is wrong. Western culture is, like... about 50% Progressivism by volume. It’s gay marriage and gender studies degrees and blue hair and labour laws and feminism and all that good stuff as well. Those things are contained within white culture, what with all the white people in the culture being progressive like half the time. Of course, they’re conservative the other half of the time, but that is less than average. Statistically.
It -is- an understandable belief though, given the opposition. Like I get it - if you’re opposed to racism, and all the racists jack off about how great white culture is (as defined by the racists as ‘being racist (based!)’), then to take them down a peg, you tell them that thing they like (white culture) actually (accepting that definition) sucks. Especially when they’re pro-white racists! Fuck those guys! And the pro-white racists themselves being massively conservative and reactionary in every other way definitely colours that side of things. But the definition you’re accepting isn’t really super accurate. Just... statistically, it doesn’t track to the facts of the matter.
It’s like how far-right-types and far-left-types sometimes seem to both think that The Jews are subversive elements who work towards spreading homosexuality and communism to subvert America and destroy traditional family values, except the former think that’s bad and the latter think that’s based. And neither are particularly correct about the -facts- of the matter; they’re, like, statistically a bit more progressive than average, but not, like, by that much, and not more than atheists.), but they’re just... lead by the nose by the vibes of their ideology to the position necessary to fit with the shape of their feelings.
Or how people on the left are fawningly positive about Islam and are very careful to not bring up the Very Conservative parts of it (which can be understandable from an American perspective when American Muslims are on average more progressive than American Christians!), while the most die-hard xenophobes rallying against them argue their case with lurid descriptions of how incredibly Conservative they are, listing evidence against Muslims consisting entirely of things the die-hard xenophobes absolutely support.
Maybe they should listen to all the non-western far-right types and convert to Islam or move to Russia and start complaining about how the evil west are trying to contaminate the youth with drag queen story hours and transgender bathrooms or whatever. A stupid ideology that is at least more consistent than what they’re peddling now.

Its insane that you went from sjw transgender bucky bucktoothed beaver faggot who raped someone to a radfem who is wah wah wah wah all trans women and men are abusive scum. thats you.
"who raped someone" what the sweet hell. get it together.
former sjw trans bucktooth beaver faggot though i humbly accept
and "trans men"/TIF arent scum bc they're female. and i don't think all trans identified are scum anyway. am in fact capable of nuance. i just don't believe in gender ideology or politics. also i'm not really a radfem. maybe just like a gender abolitionist.
you're really going through it huh
#anon cant call me a transphobe without being a homophobe#this is definitely a female in my inbox calling me a faggot right now

Okay, maybe the Ackleses can conquer the industry with their understanding of PR. How did HBO senior executives decide that they could fix people's reactions to mediocre shows by using sock accounts to argue with people on Twitter? To make it even stupider, they also ticked off the poor underling they assigned the job, so much that he threw it into a court case over working conditions at the company. LMAO at these overpaid clowns.
https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/digital/hbo-chief-casey-bloys-fake-twitter-accounts-1235634912/
Link. You mean social media can be used as a weapon? You don't say?!
Like, is anyone really surprised? My former colleagues were more mad that Boyd couldn’t be assed to make his own fake Twitter account but had to tell an underling to do it. But I was, come on, most companies have a staffer or two doing sneaky social media things like this, pushing their narrative. Hello, ever been on the Apple TV online discourse? Apple has some good shows, but online discourse would make you think that they were already way out ahead of golden era HBO. No doubt there are some dedicated Apple fans, but I find it hard to believe that level of devotion was natural. And you know Amazon Prime does this, as they're the most desperate to have a cultural impactful show.
At least Mittens ran his own secret legendary Pierre Delecto account.
Why this was news is because Bloys isn’t some newly jumped-up exec or business major in tv flailing with failing products. He’s a veteran producer who’s been extremely successful at HBO for a decade plus. Why is he so thin skinned and defensive? Why does he care so much when he’s been so successful? While his excuse-explanation is having too much time on his hand during Covid sounds eye rolling, there is a grain of truth. Remember when I said here and here that what previously didn't bother executives were bothering them during the pandemic lockdown. It was why Misha suddenly scrambled to say (unprompted) three times that he and Jared got along and it was the fault of J2 fans for tainting his reputation, not because of his army of minions who lost what's left of their singe braincell over not getting canon-Destiel like he ambiguously promised for over a decade.
An assistant named Sully Temori, who is now suing HBO for wrongful termination, was given the task in June 2020 to write responses troll with X account of Kelly Shepherd, a so-called mom and herbalist from Texas with 4 followers. The troll targeted critics for being a middle aged white man who was “shitting on a show about women” i.e. The Nevers. Gee, those words sound familiar, right? It's 80% of what SJW say online whenever they come across something they don't like and can't handle different opinions.
HBO is best TV brand with the most number of Emmy wins (just ignore that HBO has the most number of members in the TV academy). So like in the article, people were surprised that a successful veteran executive would do this. Except you see it all the time: celebrities, accomplished directors, and athletes going nuts on twitter replying to random accounts with 8 followers, "No @BigDickTerry6969, You're the one who SUCKS!!!".
One of my nieces is in the industry and doing well enough that she said if she ever gets famous enough, she will use some of the money to put guardrails in place to keep her from googling herself or reading twitter threads about her. She also wants me to act like an addiction-recovery sponsor that she can call in the middle of the night with, "We just dropped a new episode and I really just want to know what people think, that's fine right? I just want honest feedback.". And I will be, "No, you don't, you have to resist that urge. I want you to go outside and look stars, okay?"
Honestly, reading about Boyd's antics was like reading John Grisham's The Pelican Brief and The Firm and getting to the Big Bad reveal and end up having Big Disappointment staring back at you. Tom Cruise at least improved the movie adaptation of The Firm.

tbh it never occured to me to see these "oh only americans complain about outdoor cats" would refer to the fact that you have more natural predators for the cats to run into. i always read it as "these damn americans and their PC policies like caring about animals and overall dictating their view on everybody else thus destroying our lives" (real thing you hear a lot in some parts of europe, USA=liberal sjws whose influence is "destroying our youth")
Depends on who’s saying it. I’ve seen both, but the former more often on tumblr while the latter i more see on Facebook.
