Me when I cosplay as a straight cop for a pride event, openly say on my blog putting him in pride colors didn't look right, shout for fictional cop pride publicly at the event, people respond with "acab", and then get a bunch of defense posts and free art while the cop pride part conveniently gets left out of all the info defending me:

#girlbob.txt #disclaimer: i would never do this #i am mocking the scenario getting to this stage #when it should've ended with 'yeah of course if you shout for seraph pride then people are going to be kind of hostile to you'#1. the seraph are fictional cops and 2. pride has a pretty big history of people trying to say 'well what about us'#lest we forget the fucking 'a stands for ally' days and straight pride flags #it was tone deaf and ignorant at best and actively malicious towards the more marginalized groups there at worst #and as far as death threats go well. that's just part of being active in a public internet place?#that's not to say it isn't bad but it's also not unique to this scenario nor does it exempt the person from genuine criticism #but it will be used to do so despite the fact that people often get sent those things for simply BEING people of color #it sucks that happened to gwg but if you discredit criticism or have been flowering her in support for doing what she did #as a reaction to the threats and stuff well. go ask her why everyone failed to mention the cop pride thing in their support.#gw2
