whenever you point out how their “insult everyone who’s privileged because fuck those guys!!!” attitude only serves to turn people away from their cause, they get all pissy and say something along the lines of “omg as if anybody cares about your fee-fees we don’t have to play nice you bigoted fuck”.
I’m sorry, but do you have any idea of how people work? the moment you personally insult someone is the moment they stop listening to you. nobody wants to agree with someone who acts like a dick. this should be obvious to you people, yet whenever anyone tries to point it out, you once again get all self-righteous and turn someone who could have been an ally away from your cause.
social justice community of tumlr, you aren’t going to go anywhere unless you accept that your methods simply don’t work. sadly, I cannot ever see you people doing that.
