me: writes a thank you post to AO3 volunteers so tumblr folks have a place to drop words of encouragement that aren't Support's inbox
random tumblr user: congratulations on supporting a double genocide
me: .....
me: .....
me: ma'am, this is a Wendy's

Like, even with the fact that I can unfortunately guess where they got that idea from, I'm just flummoxed because what power do they think a charitable organization dedicated to the archiving of fanworks has in an international conflict? Even if AO3 or OTW did take a side, how would that affect anything literally at all???

I know I'm chronically online, but that kid is chronically. online.

Sorry you have to deal with those 😔


(This is completely unrelated but I tried to reply to your Tumblr post about the person looking for kpop communities and I think tumblr deleted the reply because there was a link in it? I can't see it, at least :( But paradisediner is on Dreamwidth and maybe the pace could work for the anon?) (and if the comment doesn't show because for some reason you deleted it, I hope that means you can delete that nasty reply to your volunteer post, too 😅)

I hope people who are this online learn more effective activism over time.

Absolutely high off their own sense of self-righteousness. OTW's racism is well documented at this point, but an organisation having organisational issues that every other organisation on this goddamn internet has isn't as spicy as calling them all genocide supporters.

I am honestly actualfact confused by the "double" part of that?

[mistressofmuses]

That is painfully chronically online.

It's hard to even respond to people who honestly seem to believe things like that, because it's just... so outside the realm of relevance to anything.
