Re: Stop Going On Tumblr

It doesn't help that similar to right-wing trolls and harassment, these communities co-opt ideas of political discourse and free speech to justify shitposting and harassment.

Sure. But I don't think it's especially difficult to understand the specific contours of how that happens - the toxicity of the community seems fairly transparent. We should be really familiar with that mode of Internet toxicity by now. Which I think is why I think the way that people talk about it annoys me so much. It really bugs me when people ignore the continuities with other Internet communities - both the ways in which its toxicity is similar to other toxic communities, and the ways in which its fandom-y elements are similar to other fandom-y things. And that's, I think, where I'm coming from w the idea of stop going on Tumblr. Because the choices that you have with Tumblr are the same that you would have about any other toxic community on the Internet, and I think one of the central options with toxic Internet communities is to not engage with them once you recognize them as toxic.

I know that's somewhat unfair, because Tumblr certainly is deeply toxic. People who point out that it's toxic are basically right even if they're wrong around the edges. But nevertheless the stuff around the edges does bother me with its wrongness.
