something i find really.. interesting? about the fact that people genuinely wanted you to be/were kinda.. hoping for you to secretly be some kind of evil bigot is that like.. we're supposed to be against bigots, right? like. bigoted people are bad and ideally there should be as few of them as possible. so then why are people HOPING for you to be a bigot? wouldn't it be a bad thing if yet another creator was exposed for being secretly evil and bigoted? dont we want as few people as possible to be bigots??? idk if im explaining this thought properly but like. huh.
yeah, that’s the frustrating thing about people claiming to be progressive and then hoping [insert person they don’t like] secretly turns out to be horribly racist or transphobic or something. it’s not about wanting the least amount of harm to vulnerable people, it’s about disliking someone and wanting to see them Fall From Grace and experience Shame. it suuuuuucks and i hate how it’s such a normalized thing for people to say
