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.

What I’m advocating for, though, is participating despite that.

The system doesn't value your participation when it is run by people who hate you. Ritually pantomiming democracy is something you do for your own anxiety. It has no impact on the outside world.

We need learn to work with the system

We need a system within to work. But the current system is actively harming its community. Working in the system means being this guy

Election reform, though, is my top priority going into the next presidency.

Going to shut down these awful casinos with my winnings, as soon as I hit the jackpot.
