How to explain to ppl that jokes are the foundations to a lot of bigotry... Like you let ppl you don't know start laughing at jokes poking fun at groups they aren't in and that's where they start to get comfortable with being bigoted and then using "it was just a joke" as a defense

#personal #saw a post about getting wrapped in fabric for calling someone who is nb a girl #op said it was just a joke post and they didn't want ppl being transphobic in the comments #but guess what was all up in the comments??? u guessed it! transphobia #ppl making up scenarios that never happened to justify being bigoted #and saying that it's okay to misgender someone consistently and not try to properly identify them if you think it's ok cause u use the terms #in a gender neutral way 🤪🤪 hee so quirky #like stfu....#i use girl and bruh in a gn way but if someone told me they didn't want to be referred that way I'd stop #it's called being respectful #this is also why it's so sketchy seeing those joke posts that are made about specific group and then op is a gen meme uploader #with no identifiers of who is behind the account #i immediately clock the amount as run by a teenage cishet white boy since they wanna act like they're the default anyways #which then makes the perspective of their content a lot more heinous #and i don't care if its bad faith because these posts are often viewed and laughed at by ppl who are not the ppl being made fun of #and it makes the ppl in the content vulnerable to bigotry and having their existence questioned by assholes #so in my opinion if you're not apart of the group your joking about and you post content making fun of them to millions of strangers #then ur literally posting content that farms negative views towards the group you posted about #whether you did it intentionally or not #esp hate when they go but my friend is X and they're okay with it!!#ok and we aren't all your friend... and your friend isn't our ruler so....#keep that shit between you and ppl who know your boundaries or else don't complain when ppl think you're a bigot
