1. You are responsible for your own media experience.
2. There is such a thing as a healthy level of avoidance towards topics that make you feel unwell or even (in a real-life clinical definition of the term) trigger you – but you are the one to actively take care of what you view.
3. Avoiding does not mean policing others.
4. You have no right to tell artists to censor themselves – you may criticize what others do, you may dislike it, that’s fine – but actively asking for censorship when you could easily unfollow or block a person just makes you look incompetent in your use of the internet.
5. Do not give people on tumblr or /any/ website the responsibility for your emotional well-being. Because these people do not even know you so no, you have no right to ask them to take care of you.
I am honestly so sick and tired of seeing all these anons harassing people and putting others down. It is just so unbelievable to me that someone has the nerve to tell someone else, “Who would read/look through this? Go do something else with your life” yet they are, quite literally, harassing people through anonymous on the internet and spending their “precious” time sending nothing but hate. The best part of all of this is, they’re on anon so people wont go to their blog and send that same kind of hate or have people telling them that they did something wrong…. Absolutely ridiculous. Treat other people the way that YOU want to be treated, is that so hard? Why would you be harassing others when you know damn well that you wouldn’t want it done to you??? A lot of people have anon on for those who are too shy to send asks without anon, not for this bullshit.
WE ARE A COMMUNITY, CAN WE PLEASE ACT LIKE ONE
spread love, not hate. apparently this is too hard for most people to do. 🙁
