Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. 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.

We are told we live in a world where everyone is equal, but when someone (or quite a lot of someones) suggest that the death of a rich white man might not be the tragedy we are told to think it is, suddenly all of the other rich white men are upset that that is the prevailing view, and they want to use their platforms to tell us that "yes it is and we should think it is"

If you ask most people they will tell you the lesson I learned a long time ago -- a lesson most of us learn relatively young.

Not all deaths are worth mourning. You don't have to celebrate them, but you don't have to pretend that you are sad they are dead either.
