Did you hear about the homosexual letter? It only came in male boxes
fixed for you
nah, trans twitter is fuckin radical tbh
Whether or not you use it isn't really the point. If you're involved in basically any content production it's pretty much essential that you have a twitter account or no one will ever see what you make. Social media is a part of life now, and it's not really feasible for most people to just not use it
my feed occasionally gets to trans twitter but its mostly stuck in ironypoisioning, post-irony leftytwitter, post-post-irony left, both left and right cathtwitter because watching them fight is funny, anitwitter, funposters, ironic and not, pissmans, maoists, stalinists, antimaoists and antistalinists, anarchists and statists litter their tweets upon my feed. the only real consensus i can in the river of tweets is that cops are bad.
your twitter sounds magical to watch from a distance
What if the internet was a mistake in the long run
im so happy that ive forgotten what all this gay shit means
that's how i try to approach it, watch don't touch.
Twitter is considered a legitimate source for news outlets, I can see why people would exploit it like this for their own selfish reasons.
this is probably why civilization is crumbling
For as much as it has done for society it sure has done a lot against it.
Not even ever.
This shit's still happening and also people are thinking she's actually homophobic People are so fucking stupid
Still, 14 year olds shouldn't be on social media sites where the main aim is to engage with as many random people as possible.
I love Stranger Things actress, I hope she takes time away from twitter.
Can someone please post the best examples of said meme. I need to weigh up whether this was worth it
Twitter cannot die soon enough.
what if civilization was a mistake in the long run
This is one of the most notable negatives of social media, sociopathic pricks like the people who spread this "meme" are given a voice and can spread their bullshit at a much faster rate. And shit like this proves anyone can be a sociopathic prick regardless of sexual orientation, race, sex, gender identity, etc. Though I won't be surprised if some defend these people's bullshit as "venting against their oppressors" like how alt-right types defend any shitty things they do by screeching "muh free speech".
i see you are a part of unabomber twitter
It doesn't matter if the individual memes are funny. The fact that they are bullying a child off of twitter - a proudly pro-LGBT child at that, who has openly supported GLAAD - is what is at issue here.
It really isn't the same thing. All parties involved are presumably in on the joke and actively participating, I don't think you'll find many people who will look and that and think you're terrible people. That's diametrically opposite to sticking horrible things on someone's photo who isn't in on the joke and doesn't want any part of it, then posting it publicly.
Why is a child on twitter? Seems a bit silly to start with, not saying its all fine and dandy but children shouldnt be on social media.
haha, kind of reminds me of those Hitler quotes of Taylor Swift pictures from a few years ago
Alright i'm confused. So the LGBT community created and are laughing at memes that feature Millie Brown degrading gay people. I fail to see how that's funny at all. The LGBT had been harassed, assaulted and been fighting their right to be recognize as normal human being for decades yet here they are laughing at homophobic caption involving killing, demeaning and humiliating gay people. Pretty ironic. I understand dark humor and i too laugh at them too but dragging and ruining a 14 year old girl's image just for a few minutes of laughs is just selfish.
People talk a lot of shit about Tumblr but I have honestly been convinced that Twitter is a much bigger hive of scum and villainy.
been on twitter for nine years, this is true
It's like they saw /tv/'s recurring meme of completely fucking up scenes from the Raimi spiderman films and decided to do the same thing but by using the actors instead of the characters as the butt of the joke. For reference https://i.redd.it/6wu46h35ouey.jpg http://i.imgur.com/OanF6E8.jpg
It's a lot more similar to the Taylor Swift hitler quotes and other faked Taylor Swift quote images
