Yesterday I saw a photoset of about how "hate will not end hate", it was well put together and had a very good and simple point that no sane person could ever disagree with. Of course, it showed up on my dash accompanied by a scree of vitriol about silencing and speaking out etc, the gist of the commentary was "if you think hate will not end hate, I hate you".

I tell myself that tumblr is full of angry little kids, though, and if they're little kids then they'll outgrow it, so there's hope for humanity yet.
And then I add a few more phrases to tumblr saviour and hunker down in the Richard II and A. J. Raffles fandoms because everywhere else is too full of babies with flamethrowers.

And I don't think they realise that every time they say "die cis scum" or use "cishet" as an insult, they are creating a gigantic mess that trans folks like me have to clean up.

I have met people, both IRL and online, who honestly think that "cis" is a slur and means something like "transphobic" or "insensitive ass" instead of "not trans" because of this sort of nonsense.

Oh yeah. and I've seen people try to tell the Tumblr people this ALL the time and they just blow it off with "baw cis tears" or some such. It's just IMO some really self-centered people causing a mess and refusing to realize it.

Oh yeah. It's like they just WANT to hate and get mad that people telling them it's counterproductive, and then they make it into a big "I'm being oppressed" thing because HEAVEN forbid someone tell them they're being a snot on the internet.

There is kind of a big difference between telling people to stay silent and not speak for themselves, and telling them to USE THEIR WORDS like adults. It's kinda sad when people are all telling them to be a grown up about it but all they get out of it is "YOU'RE TRYING TO SILENCE ME". It's like a parent trying to correct a child and the child keeps screaming "YOU HATE ME".
