Tumblr lives and breathes outrage culture where context is secondary (at BEST) to their zealous virtue signalling and armchair activism, because vomiting a practiced THIS IS BAD AND YOU SHOULD FEEL BAD is much quicker and easier than trying to understand something and address it with a level head

Yeah I’ve witnessed this and I was taken so aback by it actually happening to me I was unsure if I should laugh it off or respond normally.
Your concern trolling is showing, pal. Admit your blog is made for that, it'd really help in filtering out the barrage of fake news and divisive commentary that's been happening over the yrs [really made worse now due to Russian psyop bots]. Wouldn't surprise most if you are another macho brocialist who actively puts down women on women's blogs and says shit like "Hillary lost because she was unpopular and a racist" with no sources
A. Hillary lost. Not because she’s a woman. She lost because her stances have changed tremendously in the last 8 years and no one TRUSTED HER.
B. I hardly ever respond to anything like this. My blog was made for that? Excuse me? I never get political.
C. If you’re going to insult me have the decency to do it out of anonymous and use actual words.
And finally.
People like you are the reason I felt so skeptical about believing the post. Someone with a shred of intelligence would rather try to convince me that all the claims are founded instead of resulting to anonymous name calling. You’re trolling way more than I possibly could have by proving to me that this is how people within your ideology deal with people on the fence. And what’s worse is you did it anonymously. So I can’t even come to a conclusion that this IS someone who supports them.
If you planned to help their cause, you’ve injured their reputation and if you aren’t then congratulations on wasting both of our time.
Okay but when people say that white people need to be stopped and straight people need to be stopped…. this is the shit we’re talking about.
How are you gonna put duct tape over your wife and daughters mouths and pretend like that shit is funny?
Hell, if I was the photographer I’d feel really uncomfortable with this.
I mean…I look at this couple and wonder why they would a) want to teach her daughters that it’s okay for a man to think this way and b) want to teach her son it’s okay to think this way.
There was a commercial on last night and it was a dad lecturing a teenage boy about how to treat his date to prom (get her home safe, she doesn’t owe you anything just because she agreed to be your date, etc.). Everyone assumed that it was the father of the girl…but it turned out to be the dad of the boy. The general message was “it starts at home”.
Your children need you to set strong example, for both sexes. Show your daughters that their voice matters and to never let a man speak all over her. Show your son that he is not superior to a woman and teach him how to respect them.
Don’t…do this.
Everything about this screams “misunderstood cap”.
I mean the cap that is conveniently crops out the date.
The replies are also omitted.
The fact that you’re using a cap of the post with no source or link to the original tweet?
I wouldn’t be surprised if this was actually a guy and his family trying to show how disgusting silencing women is and the irony that anyone would call such an action peace on earth when history clearly states the opposite to be true in this situation.
It makes a lot more sense that the mother and the camera man would agree to this picture if it was for the sake of making commentary against this method of thinking rather than one man being able to convince and otherwise force others to pose for this.
I’m sorry but people seem to easily get freaked out about things nowadays and the lack of the basics makes me want to find this tweet for myself and make sure it deserves the negativity you guys are giving it.
