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

MODERATORS
And ultimately, I feel that authentic political engagement comes from your own values and not fear of associating with people who are in your corner for the wrong reasons. It's entirely possible to reject mainstream political narratives across the board, come to your own conclusions, and end up somewhere other than the center.
Absolutely. When you come to your own conclusions, it's easy to disavow radicals that want to rub shoulders with you. When you follow an ideology, you're forced to associate with everyone who claims to follow that ideology.
