A woman could not have written Game of Thrones. I don't mean she wouldn't have been capable. I mean a woman writing about that much rape and incest wouldn't have been this globally revered as "realistic" and "dark" and would've instead been called a sexual deviant and her books fringe at best

You know what isn't anti behavior? Saying something wrong, being presented with new information, accepting said information, and going back on what you said before with a better understanding, and a changed mindset. You know what IS anti behavior? Harassing people for being imperfect.

Not to continue on the negativity train but god I wish there was a tag for straightjacket Alastor. I was fine with one or two but its been every other post, and I dont want to ruin anyone's fun, but I got behavioral center trauma//// i have to be Mentally Prepared for so much asylum content

Im actually not done. You cant just bury this in positivity posts. If you are passively allowing your friends to participate in this unchallenged, you are implicitly encouraging it. Not taking your friends aside and talking to them about the impact of their behavior still sends a message

AND ANOTHER THING y'all don't seem to know WHY antis are a problem because you participates in the exact same tactics for the things you like! It is puritanical but for a different set of morals. That doesn't suddenly make puritanical and witch hunt behaviors okay just bc you are on the other side!

Also like,,, 90% of the people you call antis are not fucking antis which you would know if you talked to them like a human being instead of engagement farming. You aren't sassy and cute. You're just a miserable asshole thats taking everyone around you down with you

Just FYI, the level of over reactive behavior and dog piling actively drives people out of the fandom. Everyone who participates in it is part of the problem. Everyone who reblogs post after post after post vaguing and making fun of people. YOU are the problem. YOU ARE WHY THIS REPUTATION EXISTS

I'm still thinking about how a while ago some ppl I was talking to equated PPD and PPP with being a bad parent. I couldn't say anything at the time bc I would have gotten too angry to get my point across. What if we actually had empathy for people in post partum recovery?

*whispers* you know we can do this cultural debate about art thing all the time, right? Websites and news organizations used to have culture critics on staff whose entire job was writing about books, movies, and TV. People read them and then discussed them. We have the technology to do this again.

When disability happens to you, you won’t be able to just “try harder”. The social supports you think magically appear? They won’t show up. The medical system will let you down. Friends & family will abandon you. You will realize disability advocates were right all along.
