Its Very Obvious What Some Liberals Mean When They Stress The Importance Of Free Speech And Begrudgingly

it’s very obvious what some liberals mean when they stress the importance of free speech and begrudgingly say they hate white supremacists but would defend their right to speech, and then turn around and berate any minorities online who rightfully point out how dangerous these people are and moan about ‘dogpiling’ and ‘cancel culture’ instead of idk - also defending those people’s right to free speech??

wait you were in the air cadets six years ago?? weren't you a child then? 😳🥺

i joined in year 8, so when i was 13 bc it looked fun and i wanted to wear the cool uniform and do the cool marches, but i eventually stopped going bc i got bored after i didnt get to make the drill team and i had a sneaky suspicion that my sergeant didn’t know how black skin worked

a webtoon i would highly recommend is definitely the makeup remover. the characters are super interesting and complex but most of all what i love abt this series is how it deals with the topic of makeup, it explores from multiple povs why (predominantly) women use makeup and and why, and it does this all without sounding preachy. like it’s all conveyed really organically from the different chemaracters involved and i love love love it

this shit still doesn’t sit right with me. as a black person, this just comes off as a very easy way out for basically making a comparison between black ppl and monsters, whether intentional or not.

yes there IS a tradition in fiction of using historical and modern events as inspiration, but that doesn’t mean it’s always done well or with the best of intentions, and judging by your response to another ask on ‘memed battles between wizards and swat teams’, this just seems like a weird world building exercise that frankly comes off as lazy and grossly insensitive.

there’s already a VERY long history in the media of portraying black ppl as brutish and animal-like and your work just seems to make light of blm and the very real struggles of black people

using the blm movement for a fancomic is so incredibly disrespectful that i genuinely cant tell if that “monster lives matter” ask response was supposed to be a joke or not.

why?? would u think that’s ok????

Is it wrong to look at history, both recent and not-so-recent to better predict how Americans might react to a fictional group? I personally don’t think so. I’m sorry if the comparison seemed disrespectful, and I’ll try to approach with respect a bit better. But in general I don’t think drawing those comparisons is inherently bad.

There’s also a really long and proud tradition of using fiction to illustrate problems that happen in real life with too many examples to name. It’s a great tool in spreading empathy and awareness to those who didn’t have it before.
