This is a conversation between me and sherlocked about a conversation I had last night. I was going to keep it private as a favor to this person because I didn’t want to drag them through the mud or make a big drama fest out of it (esp since I at first thought they were someone involved in the conversation). I’m posting it publicly because I believe in accountability and also because I resent that this person is accusing me of ducking responsibility in an interaction where I did nothing wrong (and I also think they’re an asshole and don’t care if this hurts their reputation). See below for the conversation last night: http://theroguefeminist.tumblr.com/post/83498551860/atlantis-conspiracy-theorist-photospam http://theroguefeminist.tumblr.com/post/83498741525/that-persons-obviously-trying-to-be-an-asshole-on http://theroguefeminist.tumblr.com/post/83499276394/atlantis-conspiracy-theorist-photospam http://theroguefeminist.tumblr.com/post/83498921294/atlantis-conspiracy-theorist-photospam Basically, I’d sum it up as birdsy-purplefishes (seemingly) attacked a mutual tumblr friend of mine (atomic-glitter) who is Black about a post showing similarities between Inca and Egyptian cultures. We thought birdsy-purplefishes was being racist so I stepped in to defend my friend. I then realized birdsy-purplefishes was trying to say the post was actually defending a conspiracy theory, but this was only visible in a link in the OP (it’s not even visible in the version birdsy-purplefishes made in their reblog). I acknowledged that once I realized what was going on, but expressed confusion and anger about birdsy-purplefishes being really hostile and condescending and then acting like they were in a big debate with us when it was a misunderstanding.Then of course, birdsy-purplefishes made a cissexist remark about my icon. And a friend of theirs got involved. I was pissed about the whole thing because i could have been avoided if birdsy-purplefishes had started out with a fear, concise and non-hostile correction (especially if it had quoted from the OP link or linked to it)Fin. The End. Person was an asshole. Confusion and misunderstandings ensued. Confusion was finally cleared up. Person was cissexist and dickish in the process and never considered how their remarks might be taken by a PoC in the situation. Then it was over. I don’t think I owe them an apology, if anything, they owe atomic-glitter and me an apology for not checking their privilege. But honestly, I don’t care. I’m just sick of this whole thing.So in my opinion, this is over and done, but Sherlocked really wanted to have at me. So I’m posting this to just wipe my hands clean of the matter. Y’all make of it what you will.
