Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:

Well no, I wasn't making a judgement of whether or not those people were "true feminists". I was making a judgement of their actions as being unaligned with the beliefs they claimed.
Humans do things that don't align with their core values all the time. It's called making a mistake or doing a bad thing. For example I'm staunchly anti-racism and try to check my actions. Doesn't mean I never do racist things. Nor does it mean if I do a racist thing, suddenly I'm no longer anti-racist forever and all time. Who tf knows where the line is, but probably it's around the point where you stop trying.
