THE TROLL IS POSTING THEIR CSA FIC IN TEVAN SHIPPERS’ ASKS! This is fucking beyond rage bait at this point! My god, you will do anything, but call out the actual gross behavior! Can’t even turn anonymous off, because these freaks have burner accounts!
Why is it more important to call out the “rage bait” than, y’know, the people purposefully triggering real people?!
Ok I will answer this one. I haven't been online for almost 10h so I have no idea what's been said or rehashed during that time, but! One of the simplest and most basic rules of the internet is: if you get sent ragebait, you don't share it. For one, you don't want to subject other people to potentially triggering material, but perhaps more importantly: that's what the poster wants you to do. They want you to share your outrage about what they said, they want it to blow up, they want as much attention as possible to be given to their stuff. That's why they write that kind of upsetting material, they want a big reaction! And then send it to people they think will help them spread that around and thus spread the outrage even more. Bonus points if people start blaming each other and stir up even more bad feelings! Which is what I think this particular account was trying to do, because there's two main reasons people do stuff like this: 1) you want to upset people you don't like, so you write the worst stuff you can think of (that you don't even agree with yourself) and send it to those people. Or 2) you want to make the "side" you're not on look bad, so you write the worst thing you can think of (that you don't agree with yourself) and sprinkle in things you've seen "the other side" say to make it seem more connected to them, and send it to people on "your own side" and hope that the blame gets placed on the side you don't like.
So yeah, calling out ragebait is indeed important, I think! How are you supposed to call out someone hiding behind sockpuppets and anonymous messages? Block, report, move on! Maybe warn others if you feel like it. But don't give them the attention they crave and the outrage they're trying to stir. Don't feed the trolls! They'll just come back for more!
#this is internet 101 people#have we forgotten our roots#ask frida#anon#and congrats to the person who created that account; i already saw people get sent anons telling them to kill themselves#THAT'S what sharing ragebait also leads to.

Genuinely surprised that so many people in the notes have never seen this poster before? Guys this is essentially the OG Goncharov content. The meme originated w the shoe obvs but this poster design is what kicked it into high gear and is where all the fancasts and character names originate. So u know if you enjoyed Goncharov absolutely go buy some official merch.
Have an electrician over today & he comes through from the kitchen like 'i was looking at that poster on your wall wondering how I hadn't heard of the movie so I googled it. What is the point. Is it just there to catch people out.' And I'm like, well,

its just very stupid that they put a last minute thrown together scramble match into the actual ppv but the womens tag match with actual story and good characters and build is forced into the zero hour
i mean i get it, we have another large mens match at zero hour so two would be pushing it, but its actually ridiculous we are once again only running a single womens match for a four to five hour ppv
#also where is the face of revolution ladder match? have we forgotten our roots or am i missing something?#we could make that a womens match. please#im just. ugh. why is this company like this#wrestling musing

don’t get me wrong i loved the substance but it’s very much a doctor who episode-ass movie. only difference is the actually effective feminist message and titty imagery
#i was told this movie was soooooo crazy and i’m like girl we have forgotten our roots (mid-late 2000s british sci fi television)#thoughts

the thing about it is that you are all so unbelievably wrong about garth, he absolutely had a little crush on dean lmao are you kidding
#unrequited too for as much as he knew. well unrequited up until 15x10 now that opened dean's eyes a little#but this idea that dean isn't garth's type or he has no interest in him whatsoever... it just makes me laugh lmao. absolutely he does#have we forgotten our roots. everyone's a little bit into dean it's just how it is

So let's see: how do you make men behave. Enlighten us. Tell us what the mighty enby would do that women were not capable of doing in more than a century of activism. Chop chop.
Do u forget how to make sure people face consequences or do I need to hold ur hand. Be real.
#and if such is the case do you think your activism has gotten you nowhere? and do I need to hold your hand?#I know bad faith arguements when I see them. so no. I will not be coddling you in particular#have we forgotten our roots so deeply? honestly?#sky gets political
