when can androgyny stop being portrayed as such a specific style
like ok. apparently you have to be skinny, thin, white, and masculine to be considered by society as non binary or androgynous???
brUH
androgyny is so fucking fat phobic and racist and anti feminine and that needs to be dismantled nOW

There’s a whitewashed version going around - it was actually the first version which upon noticing my mistake I tried to fix as soon as possible, but apparently it asn’t fast enough and the unfixed version still keeps getting spreaded on tumblr. Please, please, stop reblogging it and reblog this one instead.

apparently the mexican congress just approved a reform plan which will allow authorities to stop any kind of public protest out in the streets. claiming it is the only way to protect the safety and well being of the citizens who do not participate in such events. even though it directly interferes with our constitutional rights. please spread this. i haven’t seen this on any national news yet and only a few newspapers have briefly talked about it.
A few things that aren’t true.
I mentioned this before, but I truly believe that maintaining credibility is important. I think spreading misinformation, exaggerations, and falsehoods does not help any cause. Sometimes it is very tempting to just hit that reblog button and share that terrible thing people are outraged about. And sometimes it feels nice to have stuff that reaffirms our position. But we need to be more careful and we need to stick to the truth.
I just want to say that I am not defending anyone here. I am just saying this stuff is not true or cannot be proven at this time.
The picture of the KKK marching in Ferguson was from Maryland in 2013. There is no evidence that they have marched in hoods during the protests. There is evidence that some members may have passed out leaflets and there is evidence that they helped raise money for Wilson.
While the police have done plenty of disgraceful things that we can prove during all of this, SWAT did not set a car on fire. The video doesn’t even show them setting anything on fire. They were shining a flashlight into the back of an El Camino. There is currently no reliable proof I can find that police have set fires.
There is only one source saying that Darren Wilson got paid for his television interview. “Got News” is a very sensationalist website and they do not seem trustworthy at all. Their story was the equivalent of gossip. “An unnamed source from NBC” said there was a bidding war. However, ABC news told multiple sources on record that they “do not pay for interviews. Period.” Darren Wilson did have several online fundraisers that raised a lot of money for him, but he most likely was not paid for the interview.
The only evidence that Darren Wilson had ties to the KKK was generated by Anonymous. They claim they cannot release any details because their source would be in great danger. I’m not saying it isn’t possible, but that is so far from reliable that I wouldn’t feel comfortable stating it as fact.
Wal-mart never donated to Darren Wilson. Marissa Mayer did not donate. She is not affiliated with any known Darren Wilson supporters. Neither is Tumblr.
Tumblr staff never cleared the Ferguson tag. They have removed posts with personal information because it is against their terms of service. I agree it is troubling that they removed personal info of the KKK very quickly and seem to be super slow on removing other problematic content, but I don’t think they intended to censor anything. You cannot post people’s credit card info and expect it to stay up. You can read more about what they have done in this Daily Dot article.
Also, please be extra careful about doxxing posts. There have been several people who have created fake tweets and hacked accounts to make someone look like they are a giant racist. This was done as a revenge tactic by ex-boyfriends and whatnot. Revealing personal information can literally put people in danger. Please be very very very sure that you have the right person and that they did what you are accusing them of.
