Yall i just got an email from tumblr saying I interacted with accounts made by the IRA …… is this even real????

The internet is wild

Im literally imagining some government worker in russia logging onto tumblr.edu and thinking to themselves “better change my url to ‘black-galaxy-magic’ to stay young n hip and relevant with the youth of america”

sooooo let’s break it down then because the fact that tumblr sent this email is mega important

if yall haven’t been living under a rock for the last year and a half, you may have heard that trump won the election. and you may have also heard that trump was helped out by russia in a ton of ways. one of those ways was by the russian troll farm, the internet research agency (IRA). there were 84 accounts on tumblr spreading anti-hillary propaganda and general discontent, mainly targeting POC and “socially aware” youth. some of those accounts were HUGELY influential, “4mysquad” being one of the top ones with tons of followers and popular posts.

a lot of them started with relatively innocent, pro-POC posts to gain a following, before moving on to anti-police, anti-hillary, and general anti-establishment to create distrust in the only major-party candidate against trump. like I said, many of the accounts were hugely influential so their posts spread FAR. all that visibility led to increased voter apathy, meaning less voter turnout and fewer people voting against trump. and tumblr was silent on this after the official indictment of the IRA, until literally just yesterday. 

so to sum up, the email you and a ton of other people got is saying that you were following and sharing posts from russian pro-trump propaganda blogs. i’d ask that you PLEASE reblog this, because it’s super important that everyone who got this email knows why they got it, knows what it means, and hopefully knows what they might be able to do better in the future

Do you think the Russian agents were briefed beforehand on what a shithole this website is, or did some poor bastard in Krasnoyarsk get blindsided by their first random anon demanding their opinion on whether or not sexbot yiffing is problematic or empowering

Some sad sack from a troll farm in Smolensk: All right listen up gang. Who can tell me what this means?

My kink is husbands & wives who are still portrayed as very much in love with each other, because even after years of commitment and kids, they still talk to each other, go on fun random adventures and try new things. No resentment. No portrayal of marriage as a chore. Just actual love.

yikes who’s even into men and women being in relationships anymore

oh my god just make your own post no one cares

one of the billion things Hollywood / television needs to fucking stop doing that’s become a specific obsession at this point:

making loudly racist white male characters just to guilt trip the audience with “bbu..utt  ;;thheeyy  aae ggooo;;d  peeoopple you,, juusT ddon’tt nueddrrsstand” and making the biggest idiots in viewing history go “oh my gosh I guess racists have feelingzuh we are wrong to hate themm do we not all bleed the same”

we literally don’t need anymore of this shit, especially considering the fact that VIOLENT WHITE RACISTS are treated more humanely by fandoms than actual minority characters (including mistreatment from their own writers)

– mod s

These are called humanizing moments, they’re not used to (and don’t) portray the person as a good person they establish them as not a baby eating lizard being. I can only speak on two of these 4 examples, but in #2 the guy still continues being a asshole the very next scene and in #3 the kid goes on to kill his dad in the same scene.

Jesus you’re stupid, mod s.

Writer: people are complicated

Some additions:

– All anime fans are crypto-pedophiles and need to be doxxed, and even sexually harrassed if they’re minors

– Pennywise, the child-murdering monster clown is a gay icon in the year of our lord 2017

do you remember when people unironically kicked a fuss over people “misgendering” the fictional genderless demonic monster eating abomination that disguises “It”self as a scary clown despite appearing apparently in a “true” form as a pregnant demon spider thing?

i remember

-writescrib is problematic for not allowing pedos/MAPs
-writescrib is bad cause porkys a mod so it must be the new antisjw hangout 
-a hat in time is bad cause jontron has one line of dialog. 
-people trying to bring up brony discourse because of the rick and morty Szechuan sauce  
-if a friend says something racist that they didnt know that was racist at the time and apologize for it you are also racist because you didn’t say anything to them.
-blizzard is racist and sexist because of mercy concept art.
