"Slacktivism". You know, the funny thing about that word is that I have yet to see a single person who criticized "slacktivists" who actually did any rl activism.

I volunteer once a week in a school. I collaborate in my local LGTB group. I go to protests about issues I care about. I'm active in my uni's student union. When I can afford it (I'm a broke college student), I donate to charities. My final uni project is part of a larger project aimed at raising awareness about LGTB issues. And yes, when I come home after doing this, I do signal boost post in my tumblr. The last item of that list doesn't negate all my work.

Now tell me, what have you done this week to make other people's lives better, sugar?

DA


aaaaaaaaand there's the abuse. Oh, I'm sorry, the "tone argument." If you really do all the activism you claim to do, you would see the Internet mob mentality does way more harm than good (i.e., making people lose their jobs, etc. )

"Some say for attention, some say for status????"

Well, you certainly seem to have those two covered.

It sounds like all your activism is more to do with getting to say you're great for doing it than, you know, actually doing it. If that was the case, you wouldn't need to list it like a CV.

Oh my, aren't you a little condescending prick!
Guess what, if you think that the prejudices against SJWs don't apply to you? Maybe you shouldn't feel addressed. But from the way you worded your posts, you are the perfect example of someone who might do some activist work irl, but lets no chance pass to make it all about themselves.
And just because you do it, you honestly believe that most others do this, too? They don't.
(And just to sate your curiosity: I'm a nurse. I do a lot of shit to make peoples' lives better every damn day by working hard for it.)

You know what makes you a sad sack? The fact that, first of all, you thought anon MUST be talking about you, even though they're very obviously talking about a totally different type of person. And second of all, you've made VOLUNTEERING about you instead of about the people you're supposedly trying to help.

That's great you do all of that, but abusers do things for their communities, too, and then go home and beat their wives. Volunteering doesn't make you a good person, and from the way you're coming across, you are not a good person -- you're someone who does shit to try to cover up how much of a self-centered asshole you are.

Meanwhile, I, an actual LGBT person, have seen people just reblog and sign online petitions and pat themselves on the back like that's enough and makes them oh so fucking knowledgeable that they can speak over me.

Yo, I work with the homeless LGBT program literally every single week of my life, and I fucking hate slacktivists. So shut the fuck up with your holier-than-thou smug bullshit, "sugar".

This isn't about you or your cred to make yourself look better than others.

You make me sick, using these causes and the people they represent to score points on the internet.

Did you expect ally cookies, "sugar?"

"All my work."

LOL.

Get off your arrogant high-horse, "sugar".

(Anonymous) 2015-01-26 06:49 am (UTC)(link)
lmao. Go away, I don't want anyone like you "helping" me or our cause; you're not making anyone's life better, I promise you ♥
