Oh, tumblr. Is there anything that doesn't offend you?

Blaming everything that's wrong with the world on cishet white men?

if you're a cisgendered heterosexual white guy who's living pretty well, be prepared to get told your opinions don't matter because of all the things i've listed.

(Anonymous) 2013-10-10 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
It doesn't matter if you are living pretty well.

I came across a post where someone posted a pic of a homeless white man sleeping on a park bench with the sarcastic tag line of, "At least I have my white privilege!" and some reblogged it with the completely serious comment of, "You know at least he's being treated better than homeless POCS because he's white."

So, which class you are in doesn't matter.

A homeless man will be seen as having more privilege than a POC millionaire because that homeless man is white at least according to tumblr. (I don't know how they are so blind to the fact that ultimate power color is not white but green. You have money, you have privilege over all who don't. It doesn't matter what color you skin is.)

Different anon agrees with you too.

Oh, man. That's something that really annoys me about SJWs on tumblr.

"I'M A MINORITY AND I DON'T EXIST TO EDUCATE [INSERT PRIVILEGED GROUP HERE]. THEY SHOULD ALREADY KNOW THEIR PRIVILEGES! IT'S COMMON SENSE!"

Uh....no. How the hell are people supposed to know they're doing something wrong if you don't tell them? People can't be educated on things they don't know exist. Just yelling at them and calling them "privileged scum" isn't going to get the point across. :/

(Anonymous) 2013-10-10 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
It makes even less sense when you consider the internet is, y'know, a vast network of information. Don't want to educate somebody? Link them to an article or FAQ that does. It takes about ten seconds of your time.

If you link someone to an explaination and they're STILL being ignorant, THEN you can get mad.

It's like that person I saw on tumblr, who claimed to be ftm trans but kept dressing in a stereotypically female way and then was bitching all the time that people were using the wrong pronouns when meeting them for the first time.

Listen, I'll use every (reasonable) pronoun you want, but unless you present in a way that's easily recognisable, you can't expect everyone to magically guess your gender identity.

(Anonymous) 2013-10-10 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
Or maybe because they were taking real courses instead of Gender Studies.

(Anonymous) 2013-10-10 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
haha oh snap.

that reminds me of a post i saw on a feminism blog, where a girl was complaining that her father was sexist because he didn't support her majoring in gender studies.
gee i wonder why a parent would be wary of spending $40,000+ to send their daughter to university course so that she can end up with a mostly useless degree!

I'd never realised this before. Excellent way to separate those who care about helping people from those who just want a spot in the oppression olympics...

(Anonymous) 2013-10-10 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
How do they know he's being treated better just from a photo of him sleeping on a bench? Was it a special Bench of White Privilege?

(Anonymous) 2013-10-10 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
I think one of the stupidest things I saw on tumblr was this person who commented about how she accidentally called her transgendered friend the wrong name and how she felt so bad about it(apparently, he told her about it just a few days ago and before that she saw him as a girl). Pretty much after she commented on it she was bombarded with "cis scum" and things like that.

I could never understand how people could be so damn sensitive. Sometimes people do make mistakes they don't mean to do. Not everyone in the world is out to get you.

(Anonymous) 2013-10-10 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
That is really weird. The trans people I know on tumblr tend to think that you should just apologize once for a mistake like that and then drop it and go on. (I've seen that said specifically.)

Then again these people insulting her may have been cis themselves; that sort of thing never stops tumblr sjws.

I remember there was an anti-Robert Downey JR brigade on tumblr who was getting upset about his "blackface" performance in Tropic Thunder and his "yellowface" performance in Sherlock Holmes 2.

Nevermind the fact that, in both instances, he was playing a white man in those movies. Nevermind the fact that the Chinese outfit in Sherlock Holmes was a slapped-together disguise. Nevermind the fact that his character in Tropic Thunder was constantly being told how offensive he was for dressing like a black man. Nope, tumblr didn't care about context.

I mean....both those instances are kind of problematic. But if you're going to single out Hollywood for being racist, there are much MUCH better things (and actors) to single out. RDJ playing a white man in diguise isn't one of those things.

(Anonymous) 2013-10-10 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
Plus, the whole point of his character in Tropic Thunder was to mock Hollywood's ridiculous casting of white people in roles that have been written for POC. The writers are on the SJW's side on that one!

(Anonymous) 2013-10-10 09:14 am (UTC)(link)
The people who don't get the point of his character in Tropic Thunder are the same people who believe what Colbert says on his show is his real opinion.

(Anonymous) 2013-10-10 09:14 am (UTC)(link)
The worst is when white tumblr SJWs target actual PoC for not understanding PoC issues. Then when they get told they're wrong, they either call them a "self hating PoC who's brainwashed by white privilege", or they just throw out a bunch of racist slurs.

Don't even get me started on the tumblr assholes who insist on calling all black people "African American" even if they don't come from Africa or America. Then they kick up a stink if a black person tells them to stop calling them African-American. smh.
