My favorite type of hoax is when someone poses as a spokesperson from an evil company, make a statement that they are gonna do an unambigiously good deed and then watch as the company is forced to issue a statement saying, in effect, that they are evil and they intend to continue being evil.

hey also I don't know who needs to hear this, and I don't know how other POC feel about this, but please never apologize to me for the behavior of other white people. like, what? "Oh, as a white person, I'd like to apologize on behalf of my race."

like, if you've ever said that, take a second to listen to how that sounds. one, who the hell are you to speak for your whole people? and two, why are you defending them? yes, that's defending them. apologizing on behalf of them like they're your responsibility is such a strange thing to do. get mad AT THEM, and do it WITH ME, not for me.

please, it's so fucking patronizing. and! it feels pretty damn racist. both in the moment, if you're doing it in public or wherever, or if you're talking to me one on one. what the fuck kind of a thing to say is that?? why are you saying it?? when you say that, you're not telling me you're my ally, you're telling me you're theirs.

and last, it's just plainly uncomfortable to hear and I didn't ask for an apology from you. almost every time it's from someone who's not even remotely related to whatever racist thing happened. who are you? either do something helpful in that situation or don't bother me. there's so many other things you could say. like literally it's like you're making it about you. I don't care about your whiteness until it starts affecting me. begone, white fella

i'm am anti-cisgender and anti-straight

*liberal voice* well, if the cops would just do their JOB......

if you're a US liberal im legally allowed to murder you btw and you can't say anything about it because you need to consider both sides of this argument

if you're dutch, I'm actually just legally allowed to hurt you. it's really cool

very good, Firefox, that is what I use that site for

Uh-huh.

(nuclear strike incoming voice) nuclear post incoming

me, barging into your conversation: "HELLO, I'M AN ALLY!!"

flipping your coffee table and sending all the biscuits flying: "I'M ON YOUR SIDE!!!"

standing in the middle of the room spinning round and yelling: "I WANT THE BEST FOR YOU, PLEASE ACKNOWLEDGE"

I am really uncomfortable with the increasing amount of "ADHD coach"-type accounts on Twitter that continuously post "relatable" tweets seemingly just to advertise their courses or whatever, rather than out of any genuine desire to provide support to neurodiverse folks

I'm even more uncomfortable about these accounts seemingly often being run by actual neurodiverse folks, perpetuating harmful models of interaction to do a capitalism (ie. beyond "putting bread on the table"), instead of actually providing helpful advice directly

And I'm *really* not happy that I'm starting to see some of this stuff crop up on fedi as well

Where are the personal carbon emission graphs but it includes killing a rich person on it?
