@siosilvar if this person is seeing the inverse, i'm going to bet it's entirely an effect of "no cw means i can guilt-trip people into boosting/liking immediately", given the attitude

if you're sad that cw-ing your news reporting means you don't get favs and reblogs, i think you're kinda in it more for the clout instead of actually doing good
harming people by refusing to do some basic things like cw's is not helping people. if you're mad that you don't get attention, you're not actually interested in helping
people deserve to control what they see and not be under psychic siege at all times

"my news reporting of important events reaches nobody because i gotta cw it apparently so i guess there's nothing to do but quit!!! too bad it's killing my activism when cws coulda been the best part of masto!!"
sometimes shoving distressing things into people's faces is not revolutionary. not letting people have a space where they aren't feeling under attack is not revolutionary. fuck off mate lol.
@USBloveDog listen i try to be a good ally but if anyone is describing their gender in terms that makes me work out the valence configurations, i WILL start crying
mostly out of reflex
terrified reflex because that was the point at which my slim toehold of "wtf we doin" in chemistry class was totally punted the fuck off into a quagmire of suffering
chemistry class was me being artax the horse in the swamp of sorrows is what i'm saying
@siosilvar it's grape-pineapple-lime-strawberry! I Wanna Lick It
as a humble cishet, i mainly rate how much i like pride flags by how much i want to lick them. (for example, this new lesbian flag looks fucking delectable https://medium.com/@lydiandragon/a-lesbian-flag-for-everyone-cef397b89459 and gets a 10/10.)
this is also why all 'het pride' flags fail because all of them look like they would taste of licorice and sadness. -2/10 would NOT lick.
it's probably telling that my reaction to some forms of misogyny is basically just going "oh you're upset that girls are here? with girly colors? oh dear, let me just... paint everything pink and rub my glittery little hands all over this... oh dear looks like i've tripped and spilled femininity all over the place! and it's just going everywhere!", but also, i don't plan to stop anytime soon
note: i may be of the opinion orks are the *only* good part of the entire setting, don't at me i know i'm right etc etc.
no men-in-dresses shit jokes either. every lady ork is beautiful and pristine and gets an impressive speed boost due to wearing gorgeously-tailored red dresses (bc it's the go-fast color of course). also you're never REALLY disarmed with eyeliner so sharp it can kill.
(then i go to 40k events and lay out my army and :3 while shitty neckbeards get real mad.)
altho i recognize many of them in Painting Tiny Shit Siblings-In-Arms with my bjd hobby, there's one and only one way i will ever consider playing warhammer 40k:
the orks (objectively the best part of the entire setting) hear tales of mighty Queens of yore, practicing a martial art called Drag with which to slay their enemies. being mushrooms, they decide that since gender is bullshit anyway, time to try it out to see wat do.
and then i have an army of beautiful ork ladies in red dresses.
