Trigger warning:
Aphobia/panphobia/biphobia, discourse, mild cursing.

Yes, this rant is specifically about people using the tag system on Tumblr incorrectly.
I honestly like Tumblr because I don't really go out of my comfort zone on there. I have anon asks off, my blocklist on there is pretty long, and I typically just ignore people who are being generally rude or toxic.
However, I'm annoyed. There are a ton of people tagging stuff as "pan positivity" or "ace positivity" that is NOT "ace positivity" or "pan positivity."
This also goes on with Twitter. There are people who have the AUDACITY to be racist, and then decide to tag it as "BLM" "black lives matter" or "anti-racism."
It's stupid, it's petty, and it's ANNOYING.
I'm specifically annoyed by the panphobes on Tumblr, though.
Look, you're all allowed to have an opinion. But here's the thing- it gets ridiculous when you're toxic and you tag it as POSITIVITY.
I mean- okay, look.
Do y'all HAVE to tag this shit as "pan positivity?"
Have your opinion.
Nobody is taking it away from you.
But for the SAKE OF EVERYTHING- STOP TAGGING IT AS "POSITIVITY" BECAUSE IT'S EXTREMELY ANNOYING.
You're not being an "activist." You're being F**KING OBNOXIOUS.
LIKE Y'ALL.
Stop it. Just stop, alright?
Most (if not all) pan people are trying their best to reclaim the label "pan" in a way that respects bi people.
We don't want any trouble.
AND I would like to MENTION that that entire post is actually quite biphobic as well?
Just because it's a "het" relationship doesn't make a bi person any less bi.
Just because it's a "het" relationship doesn't make a pan person any less pan.
So just stop tagging discourse as positivity. Fight me all you want in the comments, that won't take
Stop tagging biphobic shit as "bI pOsItIviTy," stop tagging panphobic shit as "pAn PosItIvIty."
