Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:
-
/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts

I prefer to let them know that I laugh at their pathetic understanding of the world ... and then block before getting an equally stupid response. Not only will it notify the 0.5% of the fools who are not either trolls or too stupid to understand things the chance to figure out their world view is wrong, but venting is important to maintain one's mental health.
This exactly. If they were blind enough to think this stuff in the first place, no amount of debate is going to fix their TBI. Its about ridiculing their positions, socially shaming them, and revealing that they do not have a platform, and all of this is for the benefit of third party observers. I never argue with the fools, i argue for the lurkers of which there are many.
