Okay, look, I get you were not rude with this message or your comment on that post to but you’re also doing a big effort to justify yourself so:

1. Looking at my blog before making that comment (where it says I’m Mexican right in my about page) wasn’t really that hard. Or, you know, my icon??

2. Looking at YOUR blog I can see this subject is very important and personal to you so I understand how the misunderstanding would have bothered you.

That being said.

3. It’s not right attacking people’s personal posts for dealing with things different than you would. Especially when, as we have stated, YOU DON’T KNOW THEM. And this is a very big problem with Tumblr, right up there with privileged people complained about being called cracker or gringo (which by the way doesn’t only apply to white Americans).

4. Don’t assume everyone you meet online is: a) White b) American c) Living in a first world country d) Bad intentioned/Ignorant. This is the product of an Imperialized way of thinking, in which people from first world countries see themselves as the default, when in reality they are greatly outnumbered by other races and cultures. This makes no sense considering how big the world is and reflects a small minded mentality.

5. I’m gonna say this again: Do not come at people because of their personal posts when you know nothing about them (unless they are being deliberately cruel, racist, homophobic, etc. Then, I get it.)
