The fucking “jokes” and/or xenophobic condemnation and apathy coming from social media about the coronavirus outbreak in China are absolutely fucking disgusting and needed to stop yesterday. If you live in the West chances are very much you’re not going to get sick and even less so that you’re going to fucking die. Don’t fucking make this about you like how you made the threat of genocidal war with Iran about you. Don’t even get me started on the vile racist bullshit that’s erupting with this outbreak too. It honestly fucking staggers me how easy it is for people in the West to dehumanize and mock and belittle non-Westerners in the face of tragedy and death. You all have grown so fucking complacent in to tragedy and horror when it’s happening “over there” it’s like it isn’t even fucking real to you anymore. Images of black and brown and Asian faces suffering and dying are so abstract to us it’s horrendous. I truly fucking hope this virus doesn’t become a bigger threat and you never have to experience what the people in Wuhan and Hubei are going through right now, even as people mock them with their racist memes and imperialist cruelty. Fuck all the way off and get some fucking empathy you absolute fucking pieces of shit.

‘gender is a fake’ and ‘for some trans people the concept of gender is extremely important’ are two ideas that can totally coexist y’all

Liberalism believes a Muslim woman’s biggest oppressor is her hijab and not military intervention, drone strikes, institutionalized sexism/misogyny, capitalism, imperialism, u.n. enforced sanctions, etc.

I think we all need to move past “don’t be mean to artists uwu” and recognize there’s a difference between telling a middle schooler that they should just stop making art altogether because they lack the skills developed after years of practice and telling a grown adult who graduated from a prestigious art school that they shouldn’t draw fanart of black characters that looks like literal Jim Crow propaganda and trans dudes with tits bigger than their heads
