Encounters With SJWs/Tumblristas Offline or In Unusual Communities

[DuckofDoom]

In the end, we were all given a handout about sexuality and gender by the troons which we had to fill in. It had questions about who we're attracted to, what we're attracted to, what gender we feel, if we've had any experiences, genitalia, etc. and I didn't realise how weird and borderline predatory it is to ask kids questions about what they've done sexually and about their genitals until i remembered the encounter just now.

How the hell did this not raise all sorts of red flags for the parents and staff? It sounds like a blatant way of finding targets for grooming.

Were they doing polling for some kind of study? Were you guys made aware that this was for some kind of survey?

On one hand teenager should be taught not to be ashamed of their sexuality and feel safe to express it but on the other... why are these adults collecting info on teen's sexual experiences? I assume that you had to give the handouts back, so if the soul benefit was for you to feel comfortable writing that stuff down, then there'd be no reason to hand it back.

I want to believe that these people had good intentions but it just takes one fucking person on the adult side to ruin everything in situations like these.

NAMBLA was a thing, back in the day.

History is repeating itself with the "Age is just a number" movement . I forgot the exact acronym, but I've seen it around here, before.

Minor Attracted People, or MAPs is the term I think. Either way the only movement they need to do is into a prison.

You mean MAPs?

Normally MAPs aren't really active outside of the internet because you can't punch people through the internet... yet.

I don't really remember if it was for any study, but I don't think it was (we weren't told about any survey as far as I can remember) but we did have to give them back. No clue what they did with them and I don't really want to know either.

I 100% agree that teenagers shouldn't feel ashamed but what business do adults have knowing a students sexuality? It's no ones business, especially not an adult. Personally though I believe sexuality should generally be kept private regardless of orientation.

Though the funniest part is I went to a really trashy school with a lot of muslim and southern European students and I remember a lot of them thinking the guests were batshit insane and were ridiculed and only the anglo students really bought into it.

Because they're a batch of pederasts.

Hi. Uh...First post here, so go easy on me. I lurked quite a bit without an account on quite a few of the boards already when I found out about this place from watching Null's YouTube streams a long time ago. Nice place you guys have here.
I hate to derail the whole thing going on right now, because I have an experience like that too, from back when I was in high school, my crazy "progressive" school was trying to farm idpol data from us one time knowing kids are willing to blurt that stuff out if they're told to and that was really creepy.

But...I have other shit to spill. Something happened yesterday that made me realize it was finally time to make an account and post here. I think you guys might enjoy hearing about this. I come bearing a mirth of spoiled tard cum, in both senses of the word "spoiled". Trust me. In short, Tumblr teens and potential lolcalves and cows ransacked this really small art community I frequent. Yeah, I know, we should have expected it, art sites attract crazy tumblrinas like flies to shit, but they're wreaking absolute havoc and coordinating site attacks on discord and everything, and the poor guy that runs the art site doesn't even know what to do anymore because these mentally unstable teenage genderspecial girls keep trying to ruin his website for the rest of the users via incredibly gay ops. They keep sending him and others death threats while claiming to be "fixing the site" and making it "safer". I would love to give more details if anyone is interested, but it's a story so long and awful I would probably have to spoiler the whole thing just for length alone.
If anyone wants to hear it I'd be glad to go on but just be prepared for some weeeeeird shit. For example: These junior loonies tried to have a website-wide communist revolution for the stupidest reason ever and it failed miserably. Some of them still are trying to keep it going on and now the app is becoming a living hell if you invoke their ire.

...Which blows, because it's a pretty awesome cheap art app and the community is lovely so long as you avoid the tumblr teenagers. It's mostly nice old people and random folks from all around the world. I made a lot of friends there and everything was going nicely for all the years I've been on there until they all tried to "cancel" me too last night, after attempting to rid the app of a bunch of my friends before that.

So yeah, if anyone wants deets I can tell some tales. It would be totally threadworthy on its own if it wasn't all batshit teenagers. Some absolutely crazy stuff happened over the years and I dunno, I feel like you guys might like to laugh at it. I sure need a laugh after what they put me and all my friends through yesterday.

(Also... pretty sure one of the users on there managed to score their art on the SJW Art thread once, just for the record. I recognized the style right away. Whoever dug it up probably got it off of their tumblr, obviously, or maybe instagram, definitely not the actual site I'm talking about, because... well, I dunno if it's really "obscure", but it isn't well known. But hooee, when I caught that I knew someday I was gonna just NEED to talk about this place on here.
Also, also...I edited only to change a phrase. This behavior would fall more under "gay ops", correct?)

 

[NerdShamer]

@John Entwizzle don't leave us hanging.

 

[John Entwizzle]

Oh boy, oh boy. Okay. Well, I'll just tell the story of the absolutely autistic communist revolt first then. It was recent, after all, and it's from what I can tell the easiest way to explain how the site's starting to go to hell.

Spoiler: la Revolución

Right, so the kids and the adults on the website don't get on incredibly well. It's been like that for all the years I've been on there, but boy, it's coming to a head now. It's site etiquette to post your art you made USING the app, not just any old picture of your food and stuff, I mean, save that shit for Instagram. One of our most beloved artists is this Dutch fellow who draws Sunday-funnies style cartoon animals. I mean like, Garfield level stuff. He draws really nice portraits and realistic stuff too but his big thing is the cartoon animals, it's like a running cartoon strip for him. He tries to be a helping hand to a lot of people on the app, especially new users and kids who don't get site etiquette just yet. He makes the mistake of telling some little snowflake who posted pictures of her pancakes that she should maybe start posting some art too, in a semi-sarcastic manner...and then a war breaks out in the website's general chat. Chat ends up getting removed because of this kind of thing, and it still hasn't come back yet, like, a month or so on. Only private messages still work, and I think livestream and whiteboard chat still works but that's about it.

So yeah. All this kid's friends start reeeeing at the guy in chat, dogpiling him, and it gets so bad that in between all their tempbans he calls them "psychos" or something for not letting it go already even after I'm pretty sure he apologized. One of the slightly older troublemakers gets offended and calls him ableist and says he triggered her PTSD because she's "like, ACKSHUALLY mentally ill!1!!" and all the kids used that to claim he should be banned because of this. She and her twans-MLM friends are all gung ho to say violent things about ciswhitemalezz all the time but, yeah, no, apparently "psycho" is a slur. I could talk more about her and her friends specifically later because ooooh, they used to spew so much cowish Tumblr idpol crap to shield themselves from criticism. But not now. Back to the story.

Now, instead of doing what we older users keep telling these kids to do, to send an email to site support or even just message the site runner or report a sketch or comment when there's a problem... they refuse to actually discuss the problems they might have in a sensible manner. I mean, duh. Look at who we're dealing with. The guy who runs the place tells me they much rather write those weird "pee ur pantz"-type insults to him instead of saying "well, this thing offends me because blah blah blah and I think it breaks site guidelines" (although... none of this stuff they get mad at ever really does.)

They instead upload these "demands" posts, where they flood the site with half finished doodles and the same copypasta one of them has written in the description with a list of usually badly articulated grievances and, usually, insults at the end. Which is ironic because you know, they're so crazy about how this is toootally about "site guidelines" only, when that right there breaks them, point blank. But you know, it's okay when THEY do this stuff.

Things get weird when they all decide it wasn't enough to cancel ol' Dutch dude because he was "like, totally mean to an innocent child!" even though he really wasn't. No, they knew that anyone with half a brain could tell he didn't really do anything wrong (except make the mistake of thinking people, especially tumblr teens, on the internet understand sarcasm.) So they decided to claim some of his art was inappropriate for children. That would get him taken down.. you know, if it was actually true at all. In reality, guy draws the most normie shit ever but they needed to find something more than "he was rude!" so they tried to claim he was everything from a pedo to a rape apologist over some older drawings he made of cartoon animals acting stupid. In full Tumblr fashion, no fun is ever allowed and comedy is all bigoted unless it's stupid Instagram memes. The drawings they picked on didn't bother any of these kids before, but no, no, now that he's a bad guy, they're "like totally proof that he's okay with sexual assault!"

Anyway, this all came to a head when the oldest teens all decided to photoshop Liberty Leading The People with their 'tismy OCs (they kinda reminded me of PK's art, for some of them, that kind of weird semi-abstract sludge?) and changed their profile pictures to their own zoomed in parts of it. From then the grievance sketches kept multiplying, talking about how they wanted that guy off the app, and that the kids would run it way better than any adult moderators ever could, how the site was "biased" against younger users, whole bunch of annoying schlock. And, they all used that same eye-searing Antifa color pallet of red and black and I think yellow (because communism...I dunno.) They kept putting autism like "YOU CAN'T STOP ALL OF US" and "WE WANT CHANGE!!" everywhere. This accomplished absolutely nothing. Likewise. They almost tried to spam the app with bad reviews on the app store too saying it's okay with "hateful and inappropriate content" until they realized that would be a terrible idea and end up getting it shut down. You know, if they really wanted to "protest" the app, they could have just all left, because they all apparently hate the place so much. But, no, that would require... you know, common sense. And also they can't continue to harass users if they ACTUALLY left.

Site runner guy tried banning people whenever he could but a few real specimens ban-evaded so much a few users had twenty or so accounts made just to bypass blocks and tempbans. No, really.

There's also a "whiteboard" part of the site where everyone can draw together and they took that over completely once they got chat taken down. From then they realized since chat was gone and that whiteboard was too public, they'd have to communicate using discord and now they have this offsite gay ops "gossip discord" where they collect dirt on any user they don't like. They keep doing this shit today, digging up old posts from people and trying to cancel them because they don't like them. A few of the really emotionally unstable ones keep sending the site runner death threats for (rightfully) not siding with them. They plan the ops out on discord and every week they're trying to pick on someone new, be it an adult or another kid they just don't like, occasionally. And nowadays you just have to KNOW you did something "wrong". They won't tell you what anymore, not to your face anyway, they just harass you and expect you to know why they're mad. It's retarded.

This whole ordeal was and is some pretty concentrated autism, I'd say. So is my writing. I'm sorry if it gets a little rambley. But I mean, it was really a neverending Trail of Tism. Since the community is so small and not really that popular, and the adults who are actually making art thankfully overshadow the kids' bullcrap for anyone who's just looking at the site from the outside, this hasn't really gotten much traction for anyone who isn't in on it (and I doubt anyone here is.) Rate me with some hats here, but man, they're really ruining our app with their craziness. I just hope you guys can get a laugh out of hearing that this kind of stuff was going on behind the scenes in what looks like an otherwise normal art website to everyone else.

 

[NerdShamer]

I was wrong, autism doesn't ruin everything!

It just makes life hell for anyone who's near them.

 

[Meowthkip]

So, what site is this?

Because I would like to see these shenanigans for myself.

Two ish years ago I started attending a local, open-to-anyone D&D group just because I could, and after a few months, someone new joined, which wasn't unusual, but hoo.

Now, at first glance, I could not tell if they were a man or a woman. They dressed in a lazy feminine manner, but were hairy as fuck and had facial hair. I think the worst part about them was the fact they wore clothes way too small for them. They are obese (I'm talking megafat, could star in my 600lb life fat), and they were quite happy to have their gunt hanging out, their arsecrack on show, the fucking works. Not wanting to stir shit, I never asked what they were - doing so could have gotten me kicked out of the group and I was really enjoying it.

The DMs I'm mates with have pointed out to me, and I noticed it too (but didn't want to say anything in case it was perceived as an attack on them), that they love to be the center of attention. The paladin does some cool shit? Their Druid/Ranger has to do something cooler! The bard gets a free room because of their background? Suddenly, their character is a performer, so deserves a free room too! Another bard uses Polymorph to turn into a dinosaur? Oh, I'm a druid! Can I do that? Same bard uses polymorph to speak with some fish people bad guys, I'm a druid so I should be able to do that (even though that's not how it works)! Had to be the center of attention, but was absolutely incapable of coming up with ideas of their own when asked.

It got old fucking fast, but it's an open group and unless someone does something awful, they won't get kicked it. I later learned that they go by female pronouns but are absolutely male. No amount of pastel pink hair dye and soft voice will change that. Thankfully with Covid, I don't have to sit in the same room and have to deal with them one-upping people anymore. Despite it being an open group, they are the only SJW/Tumblrista who's joined.

This is going to sound grognard as hell but I miss it when the only people playing dnd were nerds not trendy sjws. Shit, I even checked in with some of my model painting groups for dnd and there were a bunch of sjws whining about drow being racist. even your imagination can’t escape the political bullshit.

 

[John Entwizzle]

So, what site is this?

Because I would like to see these shenanigans for myself.

The site's the online community for this drawing app on the App store called SketchClub. It's the main drawing app I use at this point, and most of the people on there are, like I said, not Tumblrettes. There's just an influx of them in the past few years and recently they're driving us up the wall.

The unfortunate thing is, as I think I mentioned, you can't really see too much of the shenanigans go on without having an account there. To outsiders, it's almost invisible. Almost.

This is because they do a lot of their weird raids and tumblr-esque sperging on the back-end of the site that isn't exactly visible to the public. It's kinda hard to explain...there was originally supposed to be like, a personal announcements board, where you would get little "notes" from the people you follow. It's become this weird private Twitter now, and that's where most of this nonsense goes on, but I'm sure some of the weird commie demands sketches are still up publicly, if you go looking for them. I think most of them have the descriptions mostly empty now. A lot of people just jumped on the trend and put hastags...even though our sites hastags don't work like Tumblr's or Twitter's to track trends and make site headlines. They're just for categorizing sketches. Oh, and anything that had death threats obviously got taken down but I might have a screencap or two of some pretty nasty ones. And I'm sure some other odds and ends either got bawleeted or probably taken down for other reasons. But scraps of it are probably still up if you go looking. The story I told up there happened only about about a month ago I think, but we're sure they're just gonna keep doing this kind of crap, even if it's not going to be as grand scale as that "revolt", so long as they have that gay-ops Discord offsite. I don't think the kids made any demands when they attacked me or my friends, because that was mostly in that private back end, but I do have screencaps of weird random shit from there, of all kinds of nonsense. I had to turn those "notes" off for all the kids now and cut off communication because I'm just tired of them, but I have screencaps of old weird shit that went down there. Some of them are probably pretty quotable as far as dumb tumblr-tier takes go. And I'm sure the next time the kids try and cancel someone some more public posts might come up, and down again. But, like I said, you gotta be in this shit deep to know what's up with it. You probably won't be able to scope any of it unless you're really "in" the community. But, if you do go on there, you'll see, the public chat's indeed still gone because of all this stuff. I don't know when it's coming back.

That fact that it's called "SketchClub" just makes the fact that people would post photos of their breakfast all the more baffling, like no shit, what the fuck did you think would happen?

It's this sort of massive sense of entitlement had by kids like this that makes me suspect that they were raised by Karens.

 

[Beluga]

@John Entwizzle is the Dutch guy ok and still on the app? It's extremely shameful to witness young people act like they're four, throwing temper tantrums at every little thing that doesn't conform to their own ideas. I hope Dutch guy and all the other older dudes know that not every young person is as retarded as the tumblr people.

All the more ironic, these are the kinds of kids (they're pretty much all female, some are genderspecial and a few are full blown "MLM" types, and some are shaping up to just be typical-man hater girls) to call any older woman they dislike "Karens", disregarding the whole definition of the word. Oh, but you know, sexism is totally bad, though.

Still, it is very Karenish, the entitlement. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case. Like, I get it, I was a dumb tween once too, everyone was, but this is something else entirely that's going on as far as we're all concerned. There's "spoiled" and then there's orchestrating targeted attacks on people on your Burn Book discord server when things don't go your way.

Yes, Dutch guy's doing pretty alright now! I was talking to him in private messages recently. He told me that he had to block a bunch of them for harassing him, he really didn't want to but it was just too much for him. I guess you could say their "canceling" attempt failed in the sense that everyone other than these policing teens doesn't give a flying fuck, and still supports his art, so that's good. But just like when they started mass attacking me, he told me all the shit they slung made him feel physically sick, so that damage is already done.

Spoiler: Long

You know, they all do this awful pushback thing whenever they're called out by anyone else, to defer any responsibility they should take, and they'll defend their actions with that weird ass righteousness SJWs tend to have, that they can do no wrong even when their crazy antics end up actually causing harm to people instead of "fixing" things. I feel like some of the stuff they say can boil down to, like, actual libel. You can't make those claims lightly and use them to harass people, and then try and pretend it's all for the greater good.

Either way...I'm sure the adults know not every younger person is like this, though. For one, me and my friends have all been on there since we were around these kids' ages, and none of us used to do that kind of thing. I'm sure quite a lot of teens and little kids outside the main "clique" don't engage in this stuff either, if not actively make an effort to avoid it. The way I remember it, we just wanted to draw stupid pictures for fun, there was no fear of being hit with a bunch of mentally unstable girls making you out to be a bad person behind the scenes.

It's just that very loud contingent of the teens and tweens who are doing this kind of thing recently. Enough where it's warranting forum discussion. That's another thing, I don't know if the big forum thread is still up, but they made the site runner make a whole "statement" on the forum talking about the "demands" he could feasibly meet and they all thanked him...just to turn around and make more "demands" the next time something dumb happened and insult him again for not keeping up. Originally, this guy who ran the site told me he thought maybe the 'Rona was just making all the kids bored and starved for attention. Now he's thinking, no, they're taking it too far. This can't keep happening. I mean, he runs the whole site on his own. He did such a good job too, but all this is getting too much for him as well. I feel really bad for him too, because he does so much for the place. It just isn't fair to him after all he's done to turn on him like this.

Either way, thank you all for listening to the tism tales for this long. It's a shame what they're doing to the place. I swear, it didn't used to be like this when I started out on there. But yeah. I hope you can all at least chuckle at the sheer outlandishness of the whole "revolt" ordeal.

I mean, obviously. Gotta stick it to your parents somehow before you realize you've turned into them.

I'm in some Discords focused on anime, AMVs, and various other similar things. Its normally just a bunch of anime fans/weebs and the like talking about pretty much anything. I thought it would be safe from SJW types and such, as what could possibly be problematic? Recently, had a person arrive who started complaining that using Japanese usernames was appropriation/racist, despite a lot of the users having said usernames due to liking certain characters from shows etc. Said person is white, and was using a single example from one half Japanese guy on twitter complaining about white people using Japanese usernames and making him confused as to if he was talking to a genuine Japanese person or not. Some have changed their usernames to more 'appropriate' ones.
