I hate everyone. by Jive
People on this site basically just confirmed for me that humans are scum. Thanks, guys. Good to know.
Here's a fucking tip: if someone says "that word is a really hurtful slur that has done me harm," don't go "no it isn't," because that makes you a gigantic shitlord.
I'm fucking livid. I hope you all choke.

Yeah, I mean... that's one of the major reasons I LEFT FA, so I guess it's just a stark reminder that these kind of people are everywhere. I really feel for the poster of the original journal (I'm like 99% sure you know the one I mean) getting this kind of shit.
I still really love this site, and I won't be going back to FA anytime soon... there's been more people calling out the bullshit here than there would be there, I've a feeling... and some of the comments are left by otherwise inactive accounts, which tends to suggest they're not even really members of the weasyl userbase. But still. It's just left me with a gross, angry feeling.

yeah, yeah my feelings exactly too. its a shitty and cruel reminder that in these times its still p much impossible to escape that kind of shitty thinking from others and it just makes me so sad and livid at the same time hmm
tbh i think the one silverlining i can pick out from this is that admittedly, i AM seeing more people calling out this kind of terrible thinking and behavior, more people than i saw doing so over on fa. the comments left by those sorta inactive accounts just give me a feeling that these are people who are stodgy and stuck in their ways, but wanted to see their favorite artists' art on other websites only to be disappointed that these artists are actually decent people who dont stand for shit, which leaves these assholes with a need to be selfish little passive aggressive shitheads about it

I have noticed more and more people not standing for such shit, but admittedly, it's a little bittersweet for me... as I live in an area that is not properly represented in many online communities. It's much further behind, in terms of MOGAI acceptance... as well as basically every other marginalized group. I'm in the deep south in the US. So when I leave the house after getting used to people online not being these awful bigots, it's system shock.
I just don't understand what's so hard about understanding that your experience is not the only one. There are billions of people on this planet, and to think that you know better than someone else what their own experience is and everyone different than you is just being whiny and not really oppressed is... so self-centered and short-sighted.I guess, in the end, it's comforting to know that things are changing, but I wish things had changed sooner.

aaaah shit dude, same here. i live in an area where this sort of stuff is incredibly underground so all i can really get is online, but then even online there is so much selfishness
honestly all i can hope for and try and help for is at least some good changes while im still around and kicking. help set things up to keep getting better
-
I'm still publicly in the closet actually because of my father. I look forward to the day I can start pushing for change for the better, though. Soon, hopefully.

I'm not aware of what happened, but I would like to know more. Would you toss me a PM?
-
yeah, what r-wolfe said; it's just one of those things that gets the terrible people all up in a huff and throwing their shit out there
i'm glad that at least the staff is handling certain things in regards to this well enough; it provides some hope that scummy opinions have less room for validition/support on this site

D:?!
Did things take a turn to the worse on one of your journals?-
Oh, no, not mine. Someone else posted a journal about the harmful history behind words like "cuntboy," and "shemale," and "herm," especially when used in describing pornographic images... and some of the comments were really gross.
-
Ooooh god, I know the one now.
Man what the fuck. Motherfuckers way too protective of these god damn words, just because they relate to their fetishization of trans people. If they're actively causing harm, people need to learn to drop them and find ones that aren't as derisive.

haven't seen the journal in question, but feeling sick just thinking about it. fuck anyone who thinks their 'right' to use a slur is more important than the comfort and safety of the people it's targeting
-
Went through the comments on that journal and just. Why can't people either ignore what they don't like so much or just use the terms its not like they're being asked to totally change every aspect of their lives. Its really gross.
-
Well, we're not all bad. Just, a lot of vermin among the proper. If you need a hug, I'll still be here.
-
I don't understand why there's such a struggle with the moral quandary of not using a slur word. Isn't that just common sense?
-
The recent events have really brought out all the racists out of the closet. We can also thank the media for playing its part. I've been in a lot of distress and have had several panic attacks since all this shit has been going on. I don't know what to do. I'm paranoid. What do people really think about me behind my back? What about my family and friends? What are the cops going to do next time they stop me at a routine traffic stop? Life has to go on. I can't just hide in my apartment forever, but I must confess I've never been so worried for my well being and the color of my skin...
-
The fuck just happened?

Nevermind found it in the comments.

all this bullshit is really calling people outta the woodworks tbh
like i expect these kinds of people definitely back on furaffinity but this site really shows em bc its still relatively small and cozy(a double edged sword bc ive personally realy enjoyed the friendly atmosphere and intimacies ive been able to cultivate on this site w my viewers but at the same time that closeness just makes the scum even more obvious)
