Modern audience

To add to this, here are some additions and corrections:

White Surpremacy/Nazi-dog whistles:

it's actually "Deutschland, Deutschland über alles" - this is the first line of the so-called "Deutschlandlied". The Deutschlandlied as a whole is also used by Nazis. (Sidenote: the third stanza of the Deutschlandlied serves as the national anthem of Germany and is fine on its own. But the first two stanzas are only sung by Nazis.)

18 - code for "Adolf Hitler"

88 - code for "Heil Hitler"

The Sig-rune (a bastardisation of the Sowilo-rune ᛋ, where the rune is shifted to look like an S or a lightning bolt. Two Sig-runes together form the symbol of the Waffen-SS.)

The Sonnenrad/sun wheel (basically a Hakenkreuz but round instead of a square)

The Black Sun-symbol (a sun wheel, but with twelve arms)

basically all other runes are also used as dog whistles (but not every usage is a dog whistle, of course)

pseudo-Viking-imagery (not everyone who is interested in Vikings is a Nazi, but Nazis really love pretending that Vikings are their Aryan ancestors)

regarding the usage of European mythology: It really depends on who is using it and why. It's usually white people from Western Europe (Germany and everything west of it) and North America, who use these mythologies for their nationalist myth-making. That national myth-making is usually achived by removing these mythologies from their roots and whitewashing them, without any regard or respect for the anchestors of the people who created these legends. Often while simulteaneously being incredibly racist towards said anchestors, who are often treated as non-white (especially in the case of Southeastern and Eastern Europeans.)

Gender Related dog whistles:

TIF/TIM - the acronyms for "trans-identified female/male"

FTM/MTF(*) - These are terms that originated within the trans community and are still in use as such. However, TERFs have appropriated these terms and use them to call trans men female(s) and trans women male(s).

AFAB/AMAB(*) - These terms were originally created to discuss how intersex people are affected by gender assignment. By now, the terms have spread within the trans community (and beyond) and are often misused to refer to biological sex. TERFs use these terms to call trans men female and trans women male.

"sex based rights" and "sex based oppression" - originally coined by second wave feminists. Has been used in transphobic feminist theory since at least the 1990s. TERFs have used it as a transphobic dog-whistle since at least the 2010s.

"sex based reality", "erasing sex" and "sex is real" - more language used by TERFs to center biological sex as the sole root of gendered oppression.

"LGB", "LGB without the T" - an attempt made by transphobes to separate trans people (and the rest of the LGBTQIA+ acronym) off from LGB. Classic devide-and-conquer tactic.

"Queer is a slur" - used by TERFs to argue that ony gay men and lesbians are allowed to reclaim the slur, because trans people were supposedly not targeted by that slur

"cis is a slur" - used by transphobes to reject the usage of the term "cis"

Transgender ideology/theology - used to present transness not as a fact of live but as an ideology/religion

Trans Rights Activist (TRA) - acronym used by TERFs to compare trans people to MRAs, to accuse them of being misogynisitic predators in order delegitimize the fight for their rights (Men's Rights Activists - a misogynistic hate movement created to oppose feminism.)

Trans Men's Rights Activists (TMRA) - acronym created to compare trans men to MRAs to accuse them of being (trans)misogynistic predators in order to delegitimize the fight for their rights (I don't know who coined that term, but it's used in the same way as TRA is used by TERFs)

calling women "female"(*) - MRAs and incels love to call women "females", because it allows them to reduce them to their reproductive capabilities and dehumanize them. TERFs love to call women "females", because it allows them to reduce them to their reproductive capabilities, which they then use to exclude trans women.

Femoid/foid - 4chan-speak, slur used to demean women.

Moid - 4chan-speak, same slur like foid, but for men.

Passoid - 4chan-speak, slur for a passing trans person.

Pooner - 4chan-speak, slur for non-passing trans men. (Poon = vulgar slang for vagina)

Theyfab - slur used to demean non-binary people who were assigned female. Is now also used to demean trans men.

Theymab - slur used to demean non-binary people who were assigned male.

Transtrender - transmedicalist slur for non-binary/gender-diverse people and for trans people who do not (for whatever reason) medically transition

transsexual(*) - old term that was used to refer to trans people before "transgender" became more common. Some trans people still use the term to refer to themselves, but the term should not be used to refer to others without their consent. TERFs use the term to paint trans people as deviant predators. Transmedicalists use the term to reinforce the belief that only trans people who (want to) medically transition are really trans and that everyone else is a faker.

cissexual - used by transmeds to reclassify certain trans people (especially non-binary/gender-diverse people and people who do not medically transition) as cis, in an effort to push them out of the trans community. Often used in conjunction with the accusation that non-binary/gender-diverse people and trans people who do not medically transition are harming transexuals and preventing transsexuals from being accepted by cis people

female privilege - a misogynistic myth that claims that cis women actually have privilege over and oppress cis men. (Sidenote: because this myth was coined by misogynistic and transphobic cis men, they did not use the term "cis", but that's what they meant.) Important features of this myth are the beliefs that cis women are privileged, because - because they receive justice for sexual harassment and violence and men don't (This should go without saying, but they fucking don't. The conviction rates for rapists are abysmal across the board. Most cis women who got raped don't even report their rapes, because the potential harm and danger they would face for it far outweighs the benefits) - because they supposedly can harm men by falsely accusing them of being rapists (Again, the conviction rates for rapist are abysmal. Most rape-victims who report their rapes suffer further victimization at the hand of the police and the justice system and/or social consequences for supposedly damaging the reputation of their rapist. This is especially true for victims whose rapist belongs to the same social circle as them. And most rapists do.) - they benefit from anti-discrimination measures - benefit from social norms, that require men to pay for dinners, making gifts, opening doors, being "nice", etc. - don't have to work and can stay at home, and because they aren't targeted by drafts/conscriptions for war - because they have access to rape shelters that are funded by the government - because they are favored in child custody battles - because they can wear trousers/pants, but men can't wear skirts (as if that isn't a right, feminists have fought for literal fucking decades. And as if that isn't a right that only applies in regions where that fight was successful and even then is usually restricted to feminine clothing with a masculine-like cut and no pockets) - because they supposedly can use their womanhood to deflect harm and make the oppression they face go away (they can't. If they could, misogyny would not exist.) - because they can harm men by withholding sex

AFAB privilege - the same as female privilege, but now trans people who were AFAB are actively included in the list of oppressors, while trans people who were AMAB are centered as victims of that oppression. The arguments are pretty much the same, including the claims that trans people who were AFAB are privileged because: - they supposedly experience less sexual harassment and violence, and can receive justice for the harassment/violence they do experience by highlighting their female-ness. (Both claims are wrong. Trans people experience very similar rates when it comes to the risk of sexual violence, with non-binary people who were AFAB being among the most affected. However, the biggest factor in this is race, not gender.) - they supposedly benefit from support systems for women, including rape shelters and AFAB-only spaces like housing (They don't. To access these spaces, they are regularly forced to detransition. Trans men who benefited from anti-discrimination measures, when presenting as cis women, will often lose access to these measures when they come out and start transitioning.) - Masculinity is supposedly always rewarded. Which is why they are allowed to wear masculine clothing, while people who were assigned male at birth are punished for wearing feminine clothing (Again: That's a right, feminists have fought for and it only helps people who live in regions where that fight was successful. And even in these regions, there this often only allows for feminine clothes with more masculine cuts. Masculinity is only rewarded in people assigned male. Claiming that it is rewarded in people assigned female - when feminists fought and bled for that - is erasing feminist history and deeply misogynistic.) - they supposedly can use their AFAB-ness to deflect harm and make the oppression they face go away

Modern audience

every now and then i scroll across a post from a racialize person that essentially amounts to "white people i hate you. i hate all of you. die in a ditch."

i am not making up a strawman here to beat down. because a) i have come across posts that say this practically word for word and, more importantly, b) i agree with the sentiment. it is a very, very understandable anger. to quote malcom x,

“When all of my ancestors are snake-bitten, and I’m snake-bitten, and I warn my children to avoid snakes, what does that snake sound like accusing me of hate-teaching?”

anger at your oppressors, even anger at those who may have not oppressed you directly but inadvertently wield privilege to aid those who do, is justified and righteous.

but at the same time, a post that's only an expression of that anger sometimes feels a little too personal to broadcast. it feels as though i wasn't really meant to see it. and i don't want to just reblog a stranger's expression of distress for all of (majority white) tumblr to see because that might endanger their online presence or worse.

and there's also the issue of tone deafness. for someone to go "man i hate white people" only for a white guy to come in and say the online equivalent of "yeah same lmao" without having anything to add just feels. really disingenuous? like i'm not in a position to truly empathize as i'm not racialized, so i'd rather be able to give advice. but i can't really do that either as, again, i'm not racialized and any advice i give should be sourced from those who are. there's nothing i can really say that would add to the conversation so i'd rather not say anything at all.

(this obv doesn't apply when it's appended with "white people can rb" or something along those lines because then that implies the poster wants their post to be seen by white people en masse, vent or otherwise.)

at one point i did rb one of these vent posts thinking it would help but i got dm'ed with the advisement that it's common courtesy not to and i took it down. i've been iffy about reblogging those kinds of posts since. but meanwhile when a post says "i fucking hate you. here's what you can do about it." that carries the implication that it's more than just a raw expression of anger. there's an invitation and advisement for action. that i will rb because it carries a clear purpose outside the outlet of emotions. it doesn't feel like i've just stumbled upon someone's personal journal, but more like they want to be seen and heard. if it doesn't really have an overarching goal in mind other than venting than i don't fully get why i should reblog it. it sounds antithetical to a lot of what i've learned so far. i wouldn't reblog my friend going through it. so why should i reblog a stranger doing the same?

This post is also on the same wavelength on what I was saying. I'll also reiterate the specific examples I gave in the notes and replies. There's a lot of (White, especially) users on tumblr who are reluctant to reblog posts that directly call out racism in general, but are even more reluctant when the post is directly mentioning racism BY White tumblr users (as in, racist actions by White users & the post is made by nonwhite users) or specific examples of it. More specifically like my post says, I'm talking about essentially tone policing. If someone is visibly, vocally angry about the racism they're talking about on the post, White tumblr users will avoid it. But if the wording says something to the effect of like "I know White people aren't trying to be racist when they do x" etc, then the post will be more popular. In my example in the notes, I was talking about racism within cottagecore many times, and I've noticed that even though I have multiple posts that boil down to the same thesis, the ones where my wording is (rightfully, justifiably) angrier are more ignored and have less notes than ones where I'm not. And like my mutual said as well, posts about White tumblr user's racism that are less direct in their wording will be more popular because White people will think "well this can't possibly be about me!". It's the same kind of idea.

[PT: I cannot stop you from scrolling, and especially folks with moral OCD are not obligated to read (plz stay safe!), but I would much appreciate if you stopped to read this post if you uncritically enjoyed Tumblr's pride like animation update. /End PT]

well you can all hate me for being a killjoy or whatever but I'm gonna be honest, I HATED this fucking like animation update. its performative. yes its nice that they acknowledged aro and intersex people yada yada but you all are way too nice to corporations who do NOT actually give two shits about us. I don't care, I'm bursting your bubble, if you are trans or intersex in any way shape or form, TUMBLR IS NOT YOUR FRIEND. maybe a lot of the people ON Tumblr, sure! theres a great queer community on here, but TUMBLR is not to be trusted in the SLIGHTEST. I know its depressing but if you want to be an actual ally to the rest of your community, you HAVE to acknowledge this fact. they didn't even originally include the trans and intersex stripes on their progress pride flag like animation.

please stop trusting Tumblr staff. this site has so many awesome queer people and none of them are acknowledging the disproportionate banning of Black people, Indigenous people, other POC, intersex people, trans people (especially trans women and transfems), fat people, disabled people, nonbinary folks, and sex workers. you are also failing to recognize the rampant issues with falsely marking random posts as mature, including FULLY CLOTHED photos of Black people and trans people. I am BEGGING you to PLEASE ACKNOWLEDGE US. I wake up every single morning in fear that I will be unjustly banned simply for the fact that I am a disabled intersex trans woman.

if you bring up ISFF or that one bunny blogger on this post you are giving me full permission to yell at you btw! its just how it is! just because some of the trans women and POC on this site have broken the rules doesn't change the fact that we are still being disproportionately banned. there are still innocents being banned in waves and if those rule breakers were cis and white, I can GUARANTEE they wouldn't be getting banned! remember that there are full on actual nazis and known predators on this platform that are allowed to run wild as long as they're cis and white! if you want proof that these bans are actually happening, genuinely just come out of your white little circle and talk to any Black blogger. go talk to trans women on this platform. BIPOC have felt and been unsafe on this platform for years and you aren't ALLOWED to just ignore it. I don't expect any regular user to just magically reinstate the thousands of minorities banned, but please at least recognize us. please see us. please.
