Re: Tumblr's turning on Tamora Pierce

[morieris]

Maybe it's because I follow sensible people (though to be honest I have very rarely seen these terrifying SJW the internet at large likes to blame tumblr for), but as a whole, whenever someone does something, immediately this place jumps to "WELL OBVIOUSLY TUMBLR IS WRONG UGH " until someone rolls in and points things out and we get to 'okay, they were wrong but tumblr didn't have to do this' which is fine.


I haven't seen this place talk about Mackie but I've been less active. What i've seen is people being disappointed and talking about a lot of nuances about being, specifically, a black person in hollywood and having to play up to the old whites in power.


Personally i'm not torn over supporting a problematic marginalized person - depending on the offense, I can drop you just as easily as a white person.

From tumblr as a reaction to what he said.

"anyways today’s lesson is that u can’t fucking trust men. not even men of color. i’m gonna keep surrounding myself with woc and stop putting any hope into men"

"*Anthony Mackie pops up in a commercial for the local news*

Me: "Shut the fuck up, Mackie! You aren’t allowed anymore.""

"dear anthony mackie,

the days that I considered casting your sexist as fuck ass for anyone ever are over. go make your own fucking sandwich, ‘daddy’, no woman is your fucking maid and you should know better than to enforce outdated and dangerous as fuck gender stereotypes on national tv and laugh about it as if it’s a fucking joke.

sincerely,
hopefully every admin ever"

Also, dont justify what he did by saying the evil white old men must be why he is doing it. D:::::

Why would someone want to bother with someone saying sexist shit though? Maybe I have a higher tolerance than most of FS, but I don't find any of that terrible. (Unless you're trying to make a point about how literally everyone is terrible regardless their race or gender - on that I can agree)

I'm not checking for him either after this.

I'm just telling what I saw....though immediately jumping to that line to combat....

NAYRT

Bah. I don't know. I agree that nothing that was quoted there is really that bad. But the idea of cutting people off for saying something sexist, in a vacuum, is something that bothers me. I mean, there's all kinds of reasons you might want to bother with him, he could be wonderful for a million reasons. And it's, you know, one joke?

I admit that I'm probably the weird one in terms of tolerance, though, because I'm not sure there's any real point where I'm going to cut someone off because of an opinion they hold. Because of acting like a jerk consistently and being unable to stop, yes, but I don't think that's the same thing. But that's just how I feel.

I looked up what he said, and Jesus, he sounds like those whiny MRAs who bitch about women being frigid to men and withholding sex from them and shit. No one owes you attention just because you said Hi to them.

Re: Tumblr's turning on Tamora Pierce

I think that's more than fair.

It does seem like so much of this is a matter of perception, to the point where you can find just about any kind of reaction you want to something somewhere on the Internet. I'm sure the people who say Tumblr is losing its shit can find posts to source that, just as much as you can find people having reasonable discussions. It makes talking about this kind of thing fucking impossible sometimes.

Probably the best response is just to forget about whether people on the Internet are ridiculous or not, assume that they are, stop worrying about which digital tribe is guilty or innocent of which sins, hang out with reasonable people, and let everything else sort itself out.
