Whenever Tumblr sings high praises of some piece of media for how woke it is it makes me not want to watch it. Which is a shame, because despite having a big Tumblirina fanbase the thing might actually be good.

They did it with Orange Is The New Black as well. Because every female prisoner was a lesbian and the whole diversity thing with the characters plus the trans character. Even though tbh I lost interest in the show after season 2.

They also had a trans woman played by a trans actress (Laverne Cox, who is also black so that's extra tumblr points)
I watched the first few episodes, and the protag said bisexuality was a phase, but considering how tumblr lesbians act I'm sure they didn't care one bit about that.

Teasing is not allowed. You have to be singing the praises of your significant other 24/7.

Are they really unable to tell when people are joking? I bet the person who wrote it doesn't have a partner.

Autistics have a difficult time picking up on sarcasm.

I'd say it's because they're Autistic but also don't know shit about dating.

Sarcasm doesn't have weight and you can't grip it, so it would be difficult for anyone to pick up. Did you mean picking up on it as in standing on top of it and picking something else up? That would also be hard.

Further proof that to tumblr being lgbt is something you decide to be one day and nothing but a fashion statement.

I love that this low effort trolling is enough to piss them off.

Suddenly r/latestagecapitalism makes sense. This exact image was the topic of a well-received post there a week back. The only question is who posted it first, the tumblrettes or the internet commies?

I don't think it's fair to claim that this image is implying that one thing is sufficient alone to cause another thing higher up on the pyramid. The argument is that all of the things on one tier of the pyramid are cumulatively justified or normalized by all of the things beneath it. It literally says that in the top right corner of the image.
What's stupid about the image is that it hierarchizes racism with no apparent rationale. Like, how are confederate flags, a symbol, inherently worse than redlining, a practice with tangible effects?

im pretty sure that 99% of tumblr has had a blood on the dance floor/black veil brids phase and im pretty sure that the singer from BOTDF is a rapist and the singer from BVB looks like emo Sheldon cooper so uh whoever these coming of age people are, they are def a depression blogger or one of those edgy wolfkins

It was pretty effective in one way... a lot of the people who see this message will also never attend Dashcon.

Let's see, why would tumblr like BVB and Fall Out Boy?
- The band members are effeminate men barely out of their teenage years who are conventionally attractive
- The songs are all about being underdogs, wrongly oppressed, or being in love
- It's pop music and we all know that Tumblr would have a collective seizure if you showed them anything good but obscure and unmarketable
- Those bands and others like them are currently popular and tumblr always bandwagons on popular things (e.g. doctor who and sherlock)
- Their social media presence is carefully crafted and monitored by a team of media managers that wish to portray the boys as family friendly
- Tumblrettes haven't actually been in a relationship with a man that wasn't just using them for easy sex so they have no idea what to look for in a boyfriend and have confused being distant with being romantic
- Tumblrettes will never actually go to the live concerts so they get to imagine their pop-stars as unapproachable and flawless demigods

hit the nail on the head fam. if this was one direction we were talking about.
yet, lets talk about andy black (yes he seriously changed his last name to be black) and how he has a striking similar face to sheldon cooper that only a tumblrite could love
also nigga the guys from fall out boy are all in their fucking 30s what rock have you been living under since 2007

To be fair, I have no idea what the fuck teenagers listen to either.
I just know most of it is lame and garbage and not nearly offensive enough for my tastes.
