you know, if you're going to warn me about a white supremacist following me, the answer isn't to block me first, especially when I've never heard of a 3%er before
angrbodic
angrbodic
I wasn't aware of the fact until they pointed it out to me but chose to block me when I told them I had no idea
angrbodic
ftr, this was a white person
angrbodic
like... IDK I'm so annoyed right now because:
1. I make it clear my content is NOT white supremacist friendly
2. blocking me doesn't fix the issue if you're warning me about someone. like why am I being punished for something I had no idea about??
angrbodic
like instead of just blocking people on the issue, maybe take the time to warn them about certain red flags....
angrbodic
maybe this is an overreaction but I've been nothing but kind to them
angrbodic
I've been on the reverse end on platforms on Twitter and I never block them unless they explicitly express the same ideology
angrbodic
idk like this is what grates my nerves about online "activism", rather than educating people on newer dog whistles for people to watch out for and using a big platform that they have, they'd rather just cut off people who don't realize these things
angrbodic
like recently, someone made the comment on a Tumblr blog that Fran Dresser allegedly was against vaccine mandates and how we shouldn't support her, never mind the larger use is that these people aren't being employed
angrbodic
and anyone can admonish me about this if I'm in the wrong
𝑑𝑖𝑎𝑚𝑜𝑛𝑑 𝑑𝑢𝑠𝑡
i've never heard of a 3%er either
angrbodic
𝑑𝑖𝑎𝑚𝑜𝑛𝑑 𝑑𝑢𝑠𝑡 : yeah, apparently they're hardcore white supremacists and think they're constitutionalists
angrbodic
𝑑𝑖𝑎𝑚𝑜𝑛𝑑 𝑑𝑢𝑠𝑡
but like blocking you does nothing? its not like you agree with the racist scum
𝑑𝑖𝑎𝑚𝑜𝑛𝑑 𝑑𝑢𝑠𝑡
just be like hey so and so is following, head's up and go
𝑑𝑖𝑎𝑚𝑜𝑛𝑑 𝑑𝑢𝑠𝑡
give folks time to do what they will with the info
angrbodic
𝑑𝑖𝑎𝑚𝑜𝑛𝑑 𝑑𝑢𝑠𝑡 : EXACTLY. like I've been Very, VERY vocal being anti racist so that's why I'm irritated
angrbodic
angrbodic
if white supremacists are coming up with new shit, please tell me, don't just point it out and block me
𝑑𝑖𝑎𝑚𝑜𝑛𝑑 𝑑𝑢𝑠𝑡
had you went "idc if they are racist i need those twitter follower numbers no matter what!" sure go ahead a block
𝑑𝑖𝑎𝑚𝑜𝑛𝑑 𝑑𝑢𝑠𝑡
but like otherwise ?????
angrbodic
YEAAAAH that's... that's just counterproductive to me
angrbodic
I don't care about a large following, I'm just posting art
angrbodic
everything I do online is causal, I don't want to be some influencer
angrbodic
now that I think about it, the person with the 3% may have not even known what it was about either, that's also a possibility since they're clearly very young. regardless, I did remove them as a pre-emptive measure
angrbodic
because this kid was following a lot of queer people so who knows
ARCHlVlSTE
A lot of white supremacists pose as minors to infiltrate otherwise vulnerable circles such as lgbt clubs, servers, communities etc to start attempting to radicalize them
ARCHlVlSTE
specially extremist groups like those
angrbodic
ARCHlVlSTE : jfc, really? that's good to know
ARCHlVlSTE
yeah
angrbodic
uggghhh I hate these people
ARCHlVlSTE
always be careful with "kids" who just happen to also be white supremacists or have extremely weird "opinions" (a popular one recently is that uyghur massacre is not real / not happening / propaganda etc)
ARCHlVlSTE
same with adults, but those get a softer pass because people think it'¡s "kids" who need to "learn better" when 99 out of 100 they're not
angrbodic
I've seen them deny that indigenous women have been going missing and murdered too
ARCHlVlSTE
that one is not AS prominent in cryptofashs
angrbodic
it's been popping up a lot lately in the comments of native creators I've seen
angrbodic
also like idk why they would try to follow me, a queer woman who's openly antifa but whatever
ARCHlVlSTE
oh yeah but im talking about crypts ! people who hide in plain sight
ARCHlVlSTE
they do that
angrbodic
ARCHlVlSTE : oh, no, I know what you meant
ARCHlVlSTE
it's an open provocation
angrbodic
this is usually why I block them on site if I know who they are
angrbodic
not worth the energy debating these chuckle fucks
ARCHlVlSTE
i think you'd have a good time with ian danskyn's Alt Right Playbook on youtube
ARCHlVlSTE
he's very good at better explaining all of this
angrbodic
oh nice!! I'll check it out
ARCHlVlSTE
you're very much doing the best/most you can do by blocking and ignoring
angrbodic
yeah, that's what I usually do with them
angrbodic
they don't really seem capable of basic reading comprehension lmao
angrbodic
ARCHlVlSTE : thank you for the info. genuinely
angrbodic
I wish these guys took the fucking hint nobody likes them and for them to stop trying to pass off as average
ARCHlVlSTE
the sad part is that thanks to today's culture it's getting easier for them to pass as normal
ARCHlVlSTE
a popular tumblr blog is an uyghur massacre denial blog and people just... let them, and act like their word is gospel. it's maddening
ARCHlVlSTE
i don't have opinions about much and i avoid talking about it in public but i've become rather good at spotting cryptos bc of freaks like these, some pretend to be like us
angrbodic
I don't want these people near me, I don't want them to bother and I don't know how much more clear I can be
ARCHlVlSTE
sadly the thing is that what u want doesnt matter, they need to infiltrate as much as possible and if they find even the smallest opening, they will
