#what? no we will not be deleting hate speech and neo nazi blogs and also fuck queer sex workers
Note
Oh my god you sound like a pompous ass with a fixation on Jews. Piss off.
Alright a nice and timely bit of hate, from I'm guessing either Spacelazarwolf or Slyandthefamilybook, but who knows and it doesn't really matter.
Here is a breakdown of everything that just happened. I came across a post denouncing antisemitism by someone I follow. A good message save for the fact that it was essentially worded
"If your not Jewish agree that antisemitism is bad as if this conversation took place in a bubble, or you suck"
I then agreed that yes, antisemitism is bad, but refused to pretend any speech occurs in a bubble free of the context of the world around us and the events that transpire in it, soooooo, while yes antisemitism is bad maybe we should also have a discussion about how a particular state in the middle east is attempting to turn the multiple Jewish denominations, and multiple Jewish ethnic identies as well as that state into a Monolith so that criticizing any constituent part of that list constitutes criticizing the entirety.
(I'll admit my initial response was a little more wise ass in tone than it probably needed to be, I don't responde well to posts telling me to "say what I want you to only then shut up")
The response I then received for wanting to also talk about the Israeli state trying to turn the diaspora into something like the monolith that neo-nazis and antisemites paint them as when they say "the jews", and how that is probably a bad thing likely to result in more of the antisemitism that they were asking people to condem as that far right government carries out terrible actions; was, "shut up forever" before i was blocked or it was deleted. Not exactly sure which since I can't look at spacelazarwolfs blog who I'm guessing blocked me, though I think that response was from sly. Regardless the response was essentially
No, I don't want to, shut the fuck up and never talk to me again
So, not exactly the response I'd expect from someone who was genuinely just trying to promote awareness of the growing problem of antisemitism.
As for your charge there anon about me having a fixation on jews. I don't, i do have a fixation on history though the thing I care about is the dual rises in both Identitarianism, and the violence that historically follows a push of that mindset. Whether that's white guys attacking and assaulting people with Hispanic names or dark skin in my country, the use of Russian Nationalism and pride for defeating the nazi's being used by putin to try and claim land and eradicate an ethnic minority, or ethno-religious nationalism from the Israeli state widening the definition of antisemitism to use it as cover to do the very same thing to its neighboring ethnic groups that the states founders wanted a state to be protected from ever experiencing again.
Conversations don't happen in a bubble... those that try to force a conversation to occur in a bubble have an agenda, and I've found, It's usually one that historically you should be wary of because they are trying to hide something.
And with that. May those pushing antisemitism get punched in the face as all Nazi's and antisemites should, and may Palestine be free and it's people find justice.

Who this president truly is
'Being president doesn't change who you are, it reveals who you are.” Former First Lady Michelle Obama has said.
This is such a powerful statement, especially in these times. One of my favorite quotes is from Maya Angelou "People will tell you who they are"
So America, are you listening?
We got 2 days left for the biggest decision of our lives, this is literally the vote of our lifetime.
At this moment, we know that #45 has definitely revealed who he is, and what he stands for. There are so many things he has said, that came out of his own mouth, that definitely isn't fake news, no matter how much his supporters want to spin that.
Well...where do we start….
How about that Women are pigs…
On Carly Fiorina
"Look at that face. Would anybody vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president? I mean, she's a woman, and I'm not supposed to say bad things, but really, folks, come on. Are we serious?" [Sept. 9, 2015]
"Why does she keep interrupting everybody?" [Nov. 10, 2015]
On Jessica Chastain
"She's certainly not hot." [February 2013]
On Stormy Daniels
"Horseface" [Oct. 16, 2018]
On Halle Berry
"I love her … upper body." [February 2013]
To the removal of our beautiful statues and monuments.
In a speech from Trump Tower, Trump said there were "very fine people" on both sides of the protests.
White supremacist leaders, including former KKK leader David Duke, have praised Trump for his "honesty," while critics have slammed him for putting neo-Nazis and anti-fascist resisters on the same moral plane.
Laziness is a trait in blacks
“I have black guys counting my money. … I hate it,” Trump went on to say “The only guys I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes all day.”
"He's a war hero because he was captured, I like people who weren't captured"
Trump, who never served in Vietnam, and who received multiple deferments to avoid service, had this to say in July 2015 about U.S. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., a naval aviator who spent five years in a North Vietnamese prison camp, where he was tortured.
"Jeb Bush has to like the Mexican illegals because of his wife"
Trump retweeted this - and then thought better and deleted the post, on July 4, 2015.
'The Japs'
In a 1989 interview with Time magazine, Trump dropped this doozy when he was asked to ballpark his total wealth.
“Who the f knows? I mean, really, who knows how much the Japs will pay for Manhattan property these days?” he said, employing a common racial slur for the Japanese.
'There was blood coming out of her wherever'
Trump made these remarks after he was manhandled during a primary season debate by former Fox News host Megyn Kelly. Trump also denounced Kelly, a respected journalist as a "lightweight,"
'I am the least racist person there is'
Simply not supported by the available evidence and truly laughable.
'No need to spill the beans'
In 2016, Trump retweeted an image negatively comparing the looks of his wife Melania Trump, a former fashion model, and Heidi Cruz, the wife of then-primary rival, Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas.
Cruz went on offense, defending his wife: "Donald, real men don't attack women. Your wife is lovely, and Heidi is the love of my life."
'She was bleeding badly from a facelift'
So what is it with Trump and blood anyway? He directed these offensive comments toward MSNBC anchor and "Morning Joe" co-host Mika Brezinski. As The New York Times reported:
"The president described Ms. Brzezinski as "low I.Q. Crazy Mika" and claimed in a series of Twitter posts that she had been "bleeding badly from a face-lift" during a social gathering at Mr. Trump's resort in Florida around New Year's Eve. The White House did not explain what had prompted the outburst, but a spokeswoman said Ms. Brzezinski deserved a rebuke because of her show's harsh stance on Mr. Trump."
YES - they really did go with the "she was asking for it" defense.
'Grab them by the p***y'
Trump has said some pretty terrible things about women during his 71 years of wandering this Earth. But these remarks to a former "Access Hollywood" host might be the sine qua non to understanding his attitude.
'Some, I assume, are good people.'
The racist gaffe heard 'round the world: Trump said of Mexico.
"They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people."
These are quotes and tweets this man who is supposedly running our country has said. How great have we've become in these last 4 years? Were we having more racial unrest than ever? When black men are being hung once again? When he stirs the pot by saying "Stand by and stand tall"
When he calls people who are not like him names, when he belittle and demeans women? When he is trying to divide us instead of bringing us together?
This man is out for himself and his "white friends" he doesn't care about anyone but himself. He literally wants us to go back into the 50's where blacks had no rights, women had no choice and the LGBT community were in the closet. Instead of moving us forward, he is moving us backwards.
So today my friends, remember all of this when you vote but more importantly remember this if you are not voting, if you think your vote doesn't count, if you are undecided, this is what you are voting for. This is the character of the man who wants to run our country for four more years.
This vote is literally depending on you, it is your life. Your vote affects the women in your lives choice, if you're black or of color this could mean life or death for you and your loved ones. If you are LGBT or know someone that is this is a vote to keep them free and living how they want to.
Please, please... I am begging you to vote as if your life depends on it because it does.
"Be the change you want to see"
"And just when the caterpillar thought his life over...he turned into a beautiful butterfly"

So, disclaimer at the top here that I’m white and aiming the following questions at other white users who are taking the Russian blogs thing and running with it in all the wrong directions. That said....
The question shouldn’t be: Are these 84 pro-BLM blogs that tumblr deleted Russian trolls?
At least, that shouldn’t be the only question.
Of just as much importance is: Why are we only hearing about 84 pro-BLM blogs being deleted for being Russian trolls? Why is the media running with the story about tumblr being ‘home to a powerful, largely unrevealed network of Russian trolls focused on black issues and activism’?
Like, okay. Let’s assume for a minute that all 84 of the blogs tumblr deleted were in fact Russian trolls and bots posing as black activists.
But where are the rest of the Russian troll blogs?
You know, all the ones we’ve been hearing about for the PAST YEAR AND A HALF. When the knowledge that Russian trolls and bots have been spreading Fake News and pro-Trump and anti-HRC propaganda for months leading up to the election has been there ever since the election?
Where are all the rightwing conservative blogs that were actually Russian trolls in disguise? Where are the Neo Nazi blogs that were actually Russian trolls in disguise? Where are all the blogs that were aimed at stirring up and radicalizing conservative or undecided white tumblr users?
We know that those blogs are there too. We literally know there is evidence that targeting right wing users of social media was a major aim of the Russian troll/bot farms, if not THE major aim.
Is it possible they cast their net widely and diversified their tactics, leading them to create superficially liberal blogs where they posed as black or pro-black activists in order to create dissent among the left? Sure, absolutely. Every one of those 84 blogs named as linked to the IRA could possibly be a Russian troll, sure.
But here’s the thing: according to everything we’ve been hearing for the past year and a half straight, there were thousands upon thousands of Russian trolls and bots aimed at generating fake news and misinformation to keep conservatives riled up. And yet.....when tumblr, notorious for not giving a single shit no matter how many times PoC or other marginalized users come to them with screencaps and physical evidence of Neo-Nazi blogs and the like running campaigns of harassment against them....when THAT tumblr finally comes forward and in an unprecedented move for them provides a list of confirmed Russian troll blogs....
It’s not pro-Trump, conservative, hate group, Neo Nazi blogs. Nope. it’s 84 pro-black activism blogs.
Umm. C’mon. Really? You’re really sitting there not thinking there’s anything kinda suspiciously backwards about that?
Like.....whether those blogs are actually legit or not isn’t even that relevant at this point, y’know? It’s kinda just as big of a deal that for ‘some reason’, the first time tumblr decided to put on its Nancy Drew hat and go digging around for fake troll blogs, they either decided to focus their efforts on looking into black activism blogs instead of like, Neo Nazi blogs....or else if they had knowledge of both conservative and liberal Russian troll blogs, they still for ‘some reason’ decided to focus on revealing and pushing forward the black activism blogs they uncovered as fake. And yes, I realize that part of this ‘investigation’ or whatever was twitter uncovering bots/trolls with the same names as blogs hosted on tumblr, and sharing those names with tumblr led to the site determining that they were trolls as well. But either way? Same problem. There are Russian trolls aimed at white users on the site, stirring them up and radicalizing them with hate speech, racist rhetoric, and the like, and apparently there are Russian trolls aimed at black users on the site, posting BLM and anti-police brutality content....and tumblr picked which was of bigger concern to them, and prioritized accordingly.
Which leads right into the second problem, and the next big question we should be asking ourselves: What purpose did this serve? Who benefits?
Like, its also just as big a problem that freaking BUZZFEED, in its Pulitzer-worthy reporting, along with several other news sites by now, decided that this was a story, a big story, and the angle to takeaway from it was: ‘tumblr is home to a powerful, largely unrevealed network of Russian trolls focused on black issues and activism’.
Digest that for a second. According to Buzzfeed, 84 Russian trolls masquerading as black activism blogs are a powerful network. Here’s the thing though.....the reason all the Russian trolls spreading fake news and misinformation among right wing social media circles is such a problem is...IT’S FAKE NEWS. IT’S LIES. THE INFORMATION THEY SPREAD ISN’T TRUE.
Look at everything Buzzfeed and tumblr et al’s investigative journalism turned up though when they dug into these fake black activism blogs or whatever. I read every article written up about these 84 blogs so far. I clicked on every link citing prof of how these blogs encouraged black users and other PoC not to vote for HRC. Problem is? Out of all of it, the only thing on those blogs I found cited as actually being misinformation was when one of them posted a video about a black girl being harassed by a cop and INCORRECTLY LABELED THAT COP A MEMBER OF THE NYPD. That’s it. That was all the misinformation. A video about a cop harassing a black girl being mislabeled as to where the cop was from.
Everything else spread by those blogs though? Actual, sourceable, verifiable news. Those articles made a big deal about how one blog got a ton of notes after posting a clip of HRC’s infamous super predators quote and calling her a monster for it. But like....she actually said that though? It wasn’t fake news? Just like the reactions of any black user who saw that and thought hey fuck you is reasonable and legitimate regardless of whether it was posted on a ‘real’ activism blog or a Russian troll blog?
Then add to that the fact that if you actually LOOK at polling data from the election, black voters and other voters of color pretty much ALL showed up to vote for HRC anyway, despite how they felt about her, and we all got screwed over because it was white people who looked at those posts and used them as an excuse not to vote for her.
So any which way you cut it, there is no angle in which those 84 blogs, even IF they really are Russian trolls, actually constitute some powerful network of misinformation which as the articles try and infer, leads to the conclusion that PS, we were right all along guys, BLM cost Hillary the election.
Yeah, reality is, at most, those blogs spread largely accurate information about HRC that confirmed what many black users already thought or felt about her and her policies but didn’t actually affect their willingness to show up and vote for her anyway if that was what it took to try and keep Trump out of office. Just like, at most, those blogs spread largely verifiable and accurate information about police brutality (including actual photographic and video content), which only confirmed what most pro-BLM users following those blogs already knew and thought?
The source of posts that aren’t actually made up of misinformation doesn’t actually invalidate content that’s, y’know...accurate information. And YET. Twitter, tumblr, Buzzfeed, and many users all seem pretty comfortable thinking that the shocking discoveries and implications extending from the reveal of these 84 blogs is far more important and newsworthy than like, uncovering Russian troll blogs spreading active misinformation among white supremacist hate groups hosted on the site.
The implicit takeaway is that if Russian trolls have invaded our social media spaces, we’re in far more danger as a result of any resentments they might foster or encourage among pro-BLM users protesting police brutality and white supremacist hate crimes, than from say, any resentments those trolls might foster or encourage among white users who already harbor violent racist ideologies. Like the Parkland shooter, who was reported to be openly antisemitic. Or the Austin bomber, who had a history of racist behavior. Or many, many others.
At the end of the day, tumblr unveiling these particular 84 blogs as Russian trolls changes nothing about the state of our government. Changes nothing about our relationship with Russia. Changes nothing about anything UNLESS you draw the conclusion from it that huh, if those pro-BLM blogs were fake, who knows how many others are, maybe they all are, maybe BLM or police brutality ISN’T that big of a deal.
Regardless of the true nature of those blogs, the problem here actually has very little to do with Russia, or Trump, or the election. It’s a problem we’ve perpetuated endlessly throughout our history in this country, and we don’t have any excuse for falling for it anymore. This is simply someone offering us a narrative that lets us justify not caring about something that for whatever reason, many of us don’t really seem to want to care about. And predictably, many of us are leaping at that justification, flimsy as it is.
Like....don’t. Just think about it honestly. Ask: what did this ACTUALLY accomplish. Who did it ACTUALLY benefit.
And if the answer you come up with is ‘any white person who wants an excuse to stay detached from black issues without feeling guilty about it’, like....stop uncritically reblogging posts that are not so subtly implying that all pro-BLM blogs and black activism blogs should be regarded with suspicion.
