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

Extremely unfun fact: before even the Jews, they came for LGBTQ+ people. The first major Nazi book burning was at the Institute For Sexuality which, apart from being a research institute dealing with all sorts of "nonstandard" sexuality in a scholarly rather than punitive manner, was also the world's first trans clinic.
The reason it's not mentioned is that Pastor Niemöller, being a conservative pastor, didn't see anything wrong with the persecution and erasure of LGBTQ+ people.
One of the reasons it's important to remember that the LGBTQ+ community were the first targets of concerted Nazi erasure even though they were far from the first targets of nazi hatred and slander is that the GOP are doing the same thing and they'll go through the rest of the list too if they aren't stopped.
Also important to remember when people are talking about queer identities being a "new trend" or whatever
It's not
We just got erased from history
