Someone: *Digs up shit from about half a decade ago that some semi-popular internet personality had said as proof that they are some flavor of bigot*

People who take longer than one second to form an opinion: “Hold on, that’s a little unfair. Is there proof that this is something they’ve done continuously/is a belief they actually hold? And why should we just trust the word of this random person?”

Some headass on Twitter: “UM, ACTUALLY the person who posted this is literally a queer teenager! You’re a homophobe who is harassing a minor and you also are the same type of bigot as this internet personality AND you condone the jackasses who are actively sending death threats to this ~Queer Teen~! ...Anyway, I’m still gonna consume this person’s content that I just called a bigot, but as I am a good internet citizen I’m gonna advertise that I don’t condone this creator’s actions <3″

#bonus points if the person who makes the original callout post actively admits to WAY worse shit #or hides behind defenses like this wasn't supposed to be a callout post or I'm literally neurodivergent and a minor #yes this is mostly about the pizza tower drama but I've also hard about the sr pelo thing and it's equally as stupid #people online really like to act like at age 20 you stop developing as a person #and god forbid if you don't act like you're on a public execution platform begging for your life when this happens #like call me lenient but if you literally have only said some controversial things from like 3+ years ago with nothing within the year #then I think statute of limitations applies here #real talk I saw a vague post on Twitter that made me so upset I had to scream this into the void #and i hate that I am doing this becasue I don't like to think the worst in people like this we've got enough of it already #it's just that so much online discourse is this us vs them mentality that doesn't take into account how #the vast majority of people have nuanced views on every subject or may not even have all the facts on the topic
