Imagine being called homophobic because of not shipping sth
Or called transphobic for saying trans ppl shouldn't harass(death/rape threats) even rad. fem
Being called this while being supportive of lgbt, sheltering gay and trans people in my flat, speaking out for lgbt,etc
->
Nobody has the right to attack/death thread
Not straight
Not lgbt+
Not libfem or rad fem
Nobody
No matter your nationality, sexuality, gender, ANYTHING, death threats are unacceptable.
And I won't take these words back even if I know they'd be misinterpreted, used for spreading hate against me.
However, I will block people who spread hate and slander. I hope later they'll realize it's not a good thing to insult, lie about and harrass people.
Ah my favourite picture at it's finest. I say "even a marginalized group shouldn't bully" and people say "so you want to MURDER them??". No. That's (and many others) is a whole new sentence I never said
I never came to bully sb, hurting anyone based on whatever group they belong
People are fighting against me, a person who was not only speaking out on the internet, but helping minorities in real life (yep, trans people too) and somehow think it'll make the world better??
I said it and will say again, bullying is not okay. Even minorities can't do this

Have you heard about "aro-phobia"?
It's around us every day
Since it's #aroweek and literally nobody talks about it, I'll tell how deeply it's rooted in our society: everyday life/fandoms, how aro-people suffer from it and why any of you might unintentionally add to arophobia
->
First, what's "aromantic"?
Aromantic are ppl who don't fall in love. Gay/lesbian are attracted to the same sex, hetero to the opposite one. Aromantic are attracted to none
Asexual people are not interested and don't need intimate relationships
Ppl can be aro, ace or both
What's arophobia?
It's prejudice or discrimination against aromantic people. Here I'll mostly talk about arophobia but it's often similar to acephobia.
I'll start with the most awful examples and will come to everyday life. Please, skip the next tweet if you're sensitive
I can't believe I have to speak out on a political matter
I'm 100% apolitical 'cause all politicians lie. No matter the country or party, they spread propaganda to achieve their aims.
I wish instead of politicians, we could hear the voices of ordinary people
->
I hope we could hear more voices of people who are living right in the centre of the conflict.
We should listen to them and not the news who say what's beneficial to them and who amplify the words of those with power and money.
No matter what,ordinary people shouldn't suffer. People lives must be gov's main objective and not political games
I know ppl'd hate me for this but if you believe 100% only 1 side, you're probably being lied to.
I like black-and-white moral stories but politics is all dark-grey
