compilation of people treating genderqueer like it’s not a legitimate identity because it has the word “queer” in it, and everyone knows you can only be queer if you’re gay or binary trans //s

genderqueerpositivity

A collection of people who have zero knowledge of trans history.

Genderqueer is an older term than nonbinary and has a specific history of promoting the liberation and visibility of those who are outside of the gender binary.

Let me say that again: the term genderqueer existed before the term nonbinary…and well over a decade before the creation of tumblr.

I love my genderqueer identity for it’s history, it’s inherent inclusiveness, it’s power. Genderqueer defines my gender by what it is, rather than by what it is not.

And personally, I love the fact that my gender identity is a jackass repellent. 👍

In what backwards universe do neurotypicals equate autistic people saying “hey, don’t post videos / blogs showing your autistic kids in crisis situations they would find humiliating” means we’re trying to ignore any autistic person with extensive care needs?

DEAR NEUROTYPICALS, here it is in the plainest English I got:

We say “hey, don’t post those video” because the person in the video is a human being who deserves their privacy. 

A disabled human is not a circus side show to be gawked at. 

We never saw videos of Stephen Hawking with his wheelchair stuck on a ramp. We don’t know how he went to the bathroom or the routine for getting him dressed and groomed in the morning. We never saw him with food on his face or if a muscle spasm caused him to tip in a weird position in his wheelchair. His carers did everything to keep his private life private. Sometimes rumors and bits got out, but for the most part the public wasn’t privy to what went on in his house until years later.

Gee, how hard is that, to let a disabled person have their privacy? NOT THAT HARD.

Showing videos to the public that depict the autistic person in undignified / humiliating / crisis situations is not educational at all. It’s voyeuristic, exploitative and a destruction of their privacy.

I don’t even like it when parents post embarrassing videos of their able bodied / neurotypical children, but at least NTAB kids can say “mom, turn the camera off! Mom, take that video down!”

Someone who can’t speak or advocate for themselves that way can’t defend themselves against how they’re being portrayed to the public.

Autistic people don’t say “no videos like that” to people because we want the ugly side of autism to go away.

We want you to stop exploiting people who can’t defend themselves against that exploitation. 


Here, let me break it down so even a child can understand.

Did the person in the video say you can share it on the internet?

If yes, go ahead and post it.

If no, only share it with a doctor if the behavior is a symptom of something and then delete it or keep it out of the public eye.

If it isn’t possible to get a yes or no from the person, DO NOT POST IT ONLINE!!!

What’s an antisemitic dog whistle :0?

dare-i-say-asexual answered:

Examples of antisemitic dogwhistles are:

- the use of (((triple parentheses))) which represent perceived Jewish involvement in mass media, mass immigration, and global Zionism.

- calling ppl (specifically Jewish people) lizard people, aliens, etc. All of these lead back to antisemitic conspiracy theories.

-“New York Values” which due to New York’s large number of Jewish residents is used as a stand in for saying Jewish values or interests.

-using the names of well known Jewish people as shorthand for anti-government conspiracies, control over the population, etc.

- references to nameless, mysterious “elites” with no specifics given to who they are. Also references to a “new world order.” Both of these dogwhistles are tied to conspiracies that claim a shadowy group of powerful Jewish people are controlling the world.

-any and all of the above antisemitic dogwhistles combined with invoking blood libel (which refers to the allegation that Jews used the blood of non-Jewish, usually Christian children, for ritual purposes.) Example: Someone saying that mysterious, wealthy elites are trying to drink/consume the blood of kidnapped youth.


This isn’t everything but these seem to be the dogwhistles tumblr is too stupid to stop spreading. If you want to read more about this I’ll include some links.

-A list of conspiracy theories on Wikipedia that includes a brief section discussing common antisemitic conspiracies

-David Icke’s wiki (his antisemitic theories are really popular and are often memed about so know what his ideas look like)

-google “how to spot antisemitic dogwhistles” and you can find multiple articles breaking down various statements that are used as poorly veiled attacks on Jewish people.

Apocalypse preppers who fantasise about all our artificial rules and governments falling away in times of chaos seem to forget that we invented those rules and governments. Over and over. When you put humans near each other, they group up and make a society; that’s why those  governments exist. Do they think we magically stop doing that in dangerous situations? Because… we don’t.
