Things That Annoy You on Tumblr

[BornThisWay94]

If you are white, against gay marriage, and not a feminist: stay off of Tumblr. You aren't welcome.

-I always see posts mocking white people saying how selfish they are, greedy they are, how scummy they are, but when someone mocks another race, it's "racist"

-FEMINISM! IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE THAT WOMEN CAN DO WHATEVER THE FUCK THEY WANT, YOU AREN'T ALLOWED AN OPINION AT ALL! I got told off by MANY people because I said it was inappropriate for a woman to expose her breasts in a public restaurant.

The fandoms are really what irk me the most. I haven't been a part of fandom since I was like 14. And now I'm over them because I can't justify obsessing over people I don't know.

But the problem is that it's sooo hard to find people to follow who aren't part of a fandom blog and when I do, they eventually turn into fandom blogs.

I stay away from my dashboard and I hardly reblog things anymore. I usually just browse tags now.

Over the top social justice warriors. I left tumblr for a good amount of time, came back, and it was all over my dash. I probably unfollowed more than half of the people I have on there because of it. I go on there to see stuff concerning shows I like or funny pictures, not to be guilt tripped.

Why should anyone condone being against gay marriage?

[PinkPhoenix]

^ Actually, if you are white, straight, and not a feminist: stay off of Tumblr.

Except the funny side of tumblr. Stay on that side. With the funny people.

But in all seriousness, those people against white straight people are just crazy people who think they're special because they're "different" and that if we disagree with anything they say we must be racist and/or homophobic. I think there's a good and bad side to every site, you just have to find out who/what to avoid.

I personally don't think anyone should be against it, but different people have different beliefs. Tumblr doesn't take to kindly to those kinds of people.

[dazzle]

Yeah, but having harmful "beliefs" called out isn't exactly a bad thing.

And I don't know man, but seriously, I'm a white cis girl and I never feel attacked on tumblr, and I have a lot of social justice posts on my dashboard.

I don't see how you stand them. They're hypocrites a lot of them. It's hard for me to find any I like.
I know a lot of them mean well but they're so freaking aggressive.

Yeah, they are. If you don't agree with the people of Tumblr, you're a piece of shit

I hate going into the fitness tag or any health tag and seeing porn everywhere. Like how is people having sex or a girl with obv photoshop boobs related to health and fitness!

The "DO Not EDIT!" at fantaken photos. I personally see photos of celebrities where they are shopping or travelling to another location. Even filming something and they may be on break, as an invasion of privacy. I listen to kpop, so when I see a photo of a celebrity having coffee (clearly not working), where there is a post underneath saying "do not edit", like please this photo was taken without their permission! You have no right to post it and say it belongs to you. Even if they say, no pictures, these people will still take them.

I saw a post where it said these sites spend hours to take the photo and then edit it to make it perfect, so we should respect it. Apparently it is okay to edit official/ news photos (because obv noone spend hours editing these types of photos, oh no). But fantaken photos where the celebrity is just walking around to buy coffee, do not steal it.

I do not reblog those photos, but if you take a photo of someone (most likely without their knowledge or permission), uploaded to a sharing site. Don't get pissy that someone may "steal" it. These people are basically being paparazzis.

- Obviously made up 'funny' stories that almost always end up with 'I'm dYING'

- I think it's good that people feel they can reach out to others on tumblr, and get support when they really need it. But I have seen an increase of people asking for donations on there, and a few times I've seen these people their own post after reaching their goal and implying they're appreciative but they need more. And the vibe I get from tumblr sometimes is... if you in any way disbelieve anyone's story, you're a horrible person. But sometimes skepticism is a good thing, and in all my years in previous fandoms and message boards, many people who asked for donations end up found out for faking a sob story. Not to mention I wonder how many of these people donating money are teens using their parents money unbeknownst to them.

- Mistakes from others are unforgivable and are never to be forgotten. However you shouldn't hold any mistakes they've made in the past against them because they're only human and change every day!

- All of these' I love each and everyone of you on this site, you are beautiful, you matter' faux caring posts.

- Overall I just feel like I've outgrown that place. It's great to have all these idealistic mindsets, but for me I'm just like, been there, done that, and yeah... there are a lot of horrible people in this world. But do I want to be constantly be reminded of it by a bunch of holier than thou people? No thanks, that's kind of the opposite of what I'm on the internet for lol.

As you can see this has been building up inside me for some time

There's this tumblr that's a feminist blog that when a Disney put out a Little Mermaid crown, they chewed it apart with a 5 page essay (no joke) saying it wasn't pro woman enough.

It's a plastic crown.

Here's the tumblr: http://feministdisney.tumblr.com/

It's incredibly problematic.

Oh geeze, I hate SJW tumblr's like these. The type that tear apart just about anything that doesn't fit the progressive movement and pretty much shame you for being White.

[FrozenLeaves]

Honestly I think the only reason I stay on tumblr is because of the artists I follow. That and nerdy blogs about science or cute animal blogs. They're the only ones who either generate original content or post stuff that's hard to get tired off.
Everything else is moody "inspirational" hipster pics, SJWs, and trying hard to be funny posts.

Man, I used to love tumblr so much and thought it was so perfect, until I realised what a mess it was.
Things that annoy me to no end:
- The made up funny stories in all caps that are just so desperate and not amusing at all anymore.
- How people on tumblr find something to be offended by in every.single.little.thing, they can't let anyone enjoy anything without tearing it apart, honestly the need to take a chill pill and stop taking themselves so seriously.
- How they add their own comments but then make it as if someone famous said them, thus gaining them more notes, but then you click the famous person's URL to see the post on their blog and realise it's not there. (this happens a lot with John Green, tumblr staff, etc.)
- How there are so many duplicate posts, instead of reblogging and keeping the credits, they post it as their own.
- Shipping wars, shipping wars, shipping wars.
- How if you don't agree with their opinion then you're wrong and you shouldn't express your opinion
- The whole war on cis people, like okay, I get being a minority and being marginalised and mocked, but they take it too far with their hate.

So freaking true.

The fixation on being perfect. I had a really low point when I was 14 where I was fixated on being the perfect metalhead girl and it fricking killed me, the amount of hate on tumblr is sickening.

The stereotypical tumblr feminists.
"omg I reblogged 1 pic of a trans female, I'm SUCH a feminist <33333"

[RoseHammer]

Tumblr has spilled out onto other sites, a whole lot of them are basically shut-ins who are on some kind of crusade for a cause they picked up from the internet for the most part. They perpetuate all this blind hate and despite acting like self-made activists who think they're fighting for women's rights or gay rights they're just as disgusting and sexist as anyone else.

If you really think that you're doing the world good by "getting revenge" on certain groups ( cis, straight, white, males, whatever) you just come off as a bunch of whiny keyboard warrior cunts that don't you know what the fuck you're talking about. Put your money where your mouth is and say that shit in public, I dare you.


Sorry for the rant, I think I might need to get off the internets and have some tea

[wanderer]

The feminists that parade around with pictures of their hairy underarms/ legs and then play the internalized misogyny card when someone finds it gross*

*not saying I find unshaved bodies on females gross, I couldn't care less, BUT the people criticizing have just as much of a right to comment on it, as you do to display yourself all over the internet

[kayleeee]

How in one breath they will praise some celebrity but then in the next one be all up in a riot over something that celebrity said 5 years ago.

Like sorry these celebrities are as "educated" as you in social justice and being PC.

edit: Granted if it is something really shitty then yeah call them out. but i honestly feel that most of it is unnecessary.

[bubbledre4m]

I read a post the other day that said:

White person: omg this is so hot/spicy
Me: it's literally water

How about I shove that water up your damn ass.
