i’ll tell you this, bullies didn’t stop bullying me when i gave them everything they wanted, or when i talked to them about my feelings
bullies stopped bullying me when they felt like they had something to lose if they tried to trample me
moreover, bullies were actually more likely to actually listen to me about my feelings, if they felt like they had something to lose first
sometimes people are actually incapable of caring about you as a human being until they’re scared you’ll hit back first
i describe a lot of shit in this like leverage
until you have leverage against your opponent, “good faith debate” is meaninglessif they have nothing to lose by dismissing you and your humanity, then constantly coming to the table trying to convert bigots? pointless
if you sincerely want to reform nazis, then first those nazis have to be scared of you for this to be even possible
people keep linking that piece of that stormfrnt kid who changed his views, but they always gloss over the fact that he himself said-
-that the rejection and shame of his views by the community was IMPORTANT for him to actually consider he was wrong in the first place
OH MY GOD
laughing so hard i’m crying a little holy shit

IF I DON’T REBLOG THIS ASSUME I’M DEAD
I met Carrie Fisher exactly once at a convention, and when I met her she immediately bought a poster from our booth with the words “Hey Assbutt” on them with the intention of sending it to Harrison Ford for his birthday.
I’d like to think of that as the epitome of how I’d like to have met her and honestly wouldn’t want it any other way.
Apparently Fisher regularly went to cons and would spend hours in Artists’ Alley buying bags worth of art, to the point where you could track her path around the con by watching artists freak out on Twitter over the fact that Princess Leia just bought their stuff.
Carrie Fisher was a goddamn treasure.
