remembering the time I called american psycho (a satirical film about toxic masculinity) a dark comedy and the overwhelming response was 'oh so u think men killing sex workers is funny? u think THAT'S funny?' like no I find a patrick batemen listening to 'i'm walking on sunshine', killing jared leto while wearing a clear raincoat and giving a dissertation on huey lewis n the news, using 'I need to return some video tapes' to get out of awkward situations, throwing a hissy fit about business cards, dropping a chainsaw down a flight of stairs, thinking an atm is telling him to feed it cats, and crying hysterically under a desk is funny. but thank u for ur wonderful insight
Spread the word.

Currently obsessed with this gay pigeon couple up for adoption and I think tumblr will be obsessed with them too.
Oh boys get ready
I was gonna make a post that's like 'casual racism implies the existence of ranked competitive racism" but then I realized ranked competitive racism is just the U.S. presidential election

"autistic people read things too literally" yeah, maybe when we're kids. veteran autistics go through years of mistreatment and read literal statements as passive aggressive instead
You just KNOW they talking about anime.
"there are too many fan service cameos in SOTR" babe those are characters. We already knew Haymitch knew them. Just because we recognize their names doesn't make it fan service. There are plenty of new people too.
You will never win because they do not want to change their minds. All they want is to have an argument- to make their position seem rational and normal
Correct fascist misinformation only when the fascists themselves aren't present or the target of the information. So they won't be automatically platformed for running their mouths in response.
Treating fascist ideas with any sort of dignity normalizes them as a rational opinion that normal people have. These are not normal ideas. Do not treat them as such.
Do not provide fascist arguments with detailed rebuttals with evidence and sources and explanations as to why they are wrong.
Do not let them put you in a position where you have to be the one on defense, rather, just call them what thry are: Nasty annoying douchebags that are being hateful.
Shut down their stupid hateful arguments by calling them fucking stupid and hateful and refusing to give them the time of day.
Let them make a fool of themselves by trying to prove their obviously bigoted bullshit talking points aren't bigoted bullshit.
The proper response to "immigrants are rapist criminals that need to be deported" is not to provide statistics about how productive immigrants are and how few crimes they commit. The proper response is "what the fuck is wrong with you, you racist fucking asshole".
