Late night shit post bc something happened to make me groan and complain, but dude if you’re a guy and you’re witnessing men dehumanize women, you gotta hold that accountable…if they’re making incel jokes, rape/SA jokes, jokes about sexually harassing women, spewing conservative trad family bs, degrading women for their appearance, you shouldn’t just sit back and laugh along uncomfortably

Your response to men around you encouraging you to sexually harass a girl you know in the most violating ways shouldn’t be anything but shutting down that conversation and admonishing them for thinking such rampant misogyny is okay

Same goes for white people. Ofc the same thing in the case of calling out stupid jokes and “humor” when they hear it, but also something that I see especially a lot in academia and academic settings where a POC is getting absolutely flamed on the spot by ignorant white people, and the other white people around them who are self proclaimed allies stay silent every single time and occasionally tell the POC (ofc after everything has “settled down”) how much they “admire them” for “being so strong”…although some situations have nuance, if you are never able to step outside your comfort zone for one second while people who are more vulnerable than you are taking all the fire, you need to do some self reflection on why that is

I’m going to bed now I’m exhausted 💔🥀🥀
