"like a sea of tiny, isolated islands" | Social Justice Blogging | Know Your Meme

http://bogleech.tumblr.com/post/116688132488/ An important thing to remember is that up until only a few years ago, the internet was like a sea of tiny, isolated islands. The biggest social outlets were forums, each with its own status quo, and the biggest, most visible ones were most often run by ambivalent moderators who encouraged "civil discussion" even if it meant letting grotesquely prejudiced s-------- have their "equal say." People who had any sensitivity to a lot of issues were often just run off and had to stick to smaller, more private outlets. Forums for trans people, abuse survivors anyone different from the acceptable mainstream were treated as trolling targets and often crumbled under the onslaught What we're NOW seeing, across all this social media like tumblr and twitter, are people coming out of hiding, showing their true feelings and identities as they discover they're not as alone as they thought The people who chalk this up to some kind of SJW special snowflake bandwagon are people still living in the internet's dark ages. They don't get that this diversity and compassion was always there, but hidden under their mountains of fake edgy b------- That's what pisses them off so much: they thought the internet was a free-for-all paradise to take nothing seriously and be as big an a------ as you want, but that was nothing but a facade all along. It was the result of people who thought they HAD to act that way in order to avoid becoming targets Now we're finding out which ones were just legitimately terrible people to the core and they're all in panic mode over it Posted 6 days ago 4,143 notes

anyone who is not japanese is not allowed to say any japanese words, it's appropriative, and means you are a racist and a bigot. also don't post any thing from japan, about japan, with japan in it, no japanese characters, no anime, no manga, no studio ghibli, no evangelion, no attack on titan, because if anyone who is not japanese likes or posts or comments on anything even remotely related to japan, it is a crime of the highest order and punishable by death.
