No, I consider statements that (clearly possible to avoid scenario) will happen tumblr to be false. Because, well, they demonstrably are.

I'm not sure how you read my comment, but I said that I was told that tumblr was a terrible place and that if I joined it, I would be feasted on by the SJW jackals (particularly since the fandoms I'm in aren't exactly politically correct) but when I joined it, that didn't happen. So anyone who states or implies as much are liars.

If we're both just sharing our experiences here, then it roughly amounts to "maybe you'll have contact with pricks who make fandom unpleasant, maybe you won't," which is... exactly what I could say about literally other fandom forum in existence, past or present. So why is it that tumblr alone is so demonized?

"So anyone who states or implies as much are liars."
So in short, since you haven't experienced everyone who has had those encounters despite trying to avoiding them is a liar?

"So why is it that tumblr alone is so demonized?"
Because (I quote myself and fix a typo) "the worst parts are more obvious and harder to avoid."

You know the "as much" is literally right there in what I wrote, right? The told "tumblr was a terrible place and that if I joined it, I would be feasted on by the SJW jackals" part? That people who said or implied that that would happen to me lied, because it didn't happen? A statement that is not even remotely similar to "everyone who has had these encounters despite trying to avoid them is a liar" to any sane, rational person?

Can you actually read or are you just going to keep responding to an imaginary person who said things you're really angry about, for some reason, but I'm the only real person talking to you?

Because (I quote myself and fix a typo) "the worst parts are more obvious and harder to avoid."

So say you, but honestly, where's your proof? It's been even more amicable than LJ, and far more amicable than most gaming forums, in my experience. My whole point here is that you're saying shit about tumblr I've heard over and over and over again, but when I went there myself, it utterly failed to materialize, and while I don't doubt that some of it has actually happened to people, it has also happened to people literally everywhere on the internet and I am now skeptical in the extreme that tumblr is actually worse.
