can ppl let others have time to have fun for a while without reminding them of awful shit going on, insisting they "cant forget" that these things are happening. as if just going around being silly and enjoying yourself for a while means youre ignoring the suffering of the whole world 🙄
#you dont have to have this shit on ur mind 24/7#it doesnt make you a bad person to not be expending your thoughts and energy on bad stuff all the time#people NEED breaks. if you see people having fun and go ''but dont forget [bad thing]'' that IS fucked up#people can have fun without completely forgetting whats going on in the world#its just another form of guilt tripping even if thats not the intention#also tumblr isnt using april fools to try to make people forget the transphobic shit theyre doing#this is just a yearly thing they do. they do silly shit every april fools. theres not an agenda to it. not everything is done maliciously#give people time to be silly for a while then get back to fighting injustice later (given they have the time/energy)#okay. relax for a while. putting down the pitchforks for a party popper and boops isnt going to destroy activism#*also not to say some tumblr staff may not be Hoping itll make people forget or something but like#that doesnt mean thats the purpose of the april fools shit. its not a random sudden new thing theyre doing for the purpose of distraction
