Something I really dont get is the need for a million versions of the same tw on tumblr posts that don't even mention anything illegal or dangerous on this site, instead of just blocking someone or learning to cope with the fact that this site is ran by, and used by, and made for adults
There is literally a jokermuppet account that has posted many explicit things, and that account encapsulates what tumblr really is: a shitpost of a site that brings people together and sparking genuine discussions between people of all backgrounds and allows for free self expression
I literally got the request to censor the word weed on a psot on my 18+ labeled account where I state my age and have mdni plastered all over the place, like I am all for tagging graphic or triggering content, but just because I don't have your specific version of the tw I put down 3 times does not give u the right to get all up in my comments and dms about it
I got asked to censor the word weed in the post itself and tags guys... the word weed, not even Marijuana just weed... why tf would I censor a tag that I don't need to to use, doesn't that defeat the purpose of properly tagging at all?
Girl fuck no, I am not doing any of that self censorship crap that I see on tik tok and shit and that is genuinely dangerous when the proper language for things gets pushed out of the human vernacular because it leaves u without the words to;
A. express urself in a court of law
B. Teach younger children the words they need to ask for help ir understand a topic
C. Fight facism, fascism thrives on censorship
D. Have intellectual conversations because u are skirting around the proper verbiage, promptly removing the weight that those words carry and leaving the word open to being watered down or misused
Literally just add more tags to ur filter list, any variation of whatever topic u wanna avoid, especially because the slang for things changes place-to-place and blog-to-blog
If i get one more complaint about a post that I tagged to hell and back just because I didn't use their specific tag instead of them filtering the multiple versions of that tag to avoid seeing it, I am gonna chew on glass istg
PEOPLE DO WEED, PEOPLE DRINK ALCHOHOL, PEOPLE HAVE SEX, PEOPLE ARE ALLOWED TO BLOG WHATEVER TF THEY WANT AND IF IT BOTHERS U THEN EITHER PUT IN THE WORK TO NOT SEE IT OR GET OFF THE SITE
I do this as well btw, I have so many.tag filters for things I don't want to see, and if I see it anyways I move on with my day because I have actual coping skills, and this goes for any site or app btw if u can't handle it then get off the site
This does not go for hateful, derogatory, or bigoted things btw I do not support any of that, and bigotry should be chased off the internet
