Y’all need to learn how to resist power because I keep seeing this post cross my dash about a ~one day boycott~ to protest Tumblr’s adult content ban. Let me put this very bluntly: Tumblr is about to voluntarily scuttle about 30% of its userbase (read: revenue) because they calculate that this will allow them to make more money in the long term.
They do not care about losing less than a third of one percent of their yearly revenue if it means that the majority of its users will ultimately stay loyal to the platform.
You cannot boycott this. The only way to effectively resist this is through civil disobedience. If users come together and collectively agree to violate the new terms of service Tumblr will be forced to choose between banning a critical mass of people from the platform (and subsequently going out of business) or sitting down to negotiate.
The ~boycott~ is nothing more than a feel-good activity to allow people to vent without actually exposing themselves in any way to real consequences. More bluntness: For the vast majority of y’all this website is a hobby. For the sex workers who rely on this website to make a safe living this website is survival.
Without a safe platform to reach their customers, sex workers will be forced into unsafe working conditions that will expose them to sex trafficking, rape, assault, arrest, homelessness, and other predation.
You’re literally putting your hobby ahead of the ability of other people to live, full stop. Y’all are fucking cowards.
No porn on tumblr we describe our nudes in detail instead
today I was wearing a black corset with matching lace around it and a black leather miniskirt, pink fishnets and black combat boots. I was wearing black lipstick, white foundation, black eyeliner and red eye shadow. A lot of preps stared at me. I put up my middle finger at them.
