#factually that is false

[corvidcall]

sometimes you see a bad tweet and it makes you upset all day but you cant interact with it in any way because then twitter will just be encouraged to show you more bad tweets. but it did ruin my whole fucking day

#anime life #the tweet was something like #'MAYBE when trans women talk about how bad testosterone is its because of their own trauma #and its not about trans men because literally nobody was talking about you guys oh my god' #like... ok...? #but trans men can still HEAR you tho.... #i don't think its fair to act like trans men are self obsessed professional victims or whatever just because you said something shitty #like yes it's from your trauma and not about trans men but. yknow. #if i post about how ugly my fat body is #just because its coming from a place of trauma and societal abuse doesnt mean my comments don't hurt the other fat people who hear it #anyway i think part of why it's stuck with me all day is because it made me feel so sad #sometimes it feels like no one cares about me but me yknow? #like no one cares about trans mascs but other trans mascs #and no one cares about fat people but other fat people #and no one cares about disabled people but other disabled people #i KNOW that isn't true!!! #factually that is false #but sometimes it really feels like people only care about me in as much as they care about telling me i better not start thinking i matter #as much as they do (people whose lives and problems and societal marginalizations ACTUALLY matter) #and then if you try to talk about your problems to explain how theyre real you just get made fun of #oh well. time to get under my weighted blanket and get real small #and try not to get entirely black pilled by the world lol

sokka will say something literally correct, but his friends will disagree and then clown on him mercilessly for saying that (true) thing, and then even when he ultimately proven unambiguously right, everyone can only remember how relentlessly he got clowned on. which is actually a perfect representation of having younger siblings, no notes

#sokka #my brothers will literally mock me for saying something factually true if it conflicts with their preconceived (false) notions in any way #however small! #the other day it was because i (correctly) claimed that the latin word for forest is silva! for example #i canot escape their mockery #and even when i prove to them that im right they’re like ‘no. you’re not’ #me 🤝 sokka #the eternal torment of being surrounded by the worlds most stubborn children

#i talk a lot <3 #tged #the greatest estate developer #lloyd frontera #javier asrahan #i love how factual javier is about how handsome he is. like. no yeah he's the most beautiful bastard on earth. what about it. #not a single gram of false humility in this man god bless

obviously, i love when tv shows resort to adapting defamatory rumors about the borgias, in fact it makes stuff spicier for good television! but i have that pet peeve and it is the false narrative with zero factual basis that i keep encountering while reading biographies about the house of borgia that the scholars really need to fuck off with them, and it's the whole irritating narrative that juan is the pope's favorite son, and cesare is consumed by jealousy towards him. which is total bullshit when cesare in fact received so much affection and appreciation from the pope as much as juan received (if not more than juan) cesare was the one who has always been consistently by their father's side and enjoyed immense popularity in rome, even among the artists who hailed him as the most handsome man in italy, and machiavelli was all over him. basically cesare was the renaissance's main prince. so there's nothing that indicates that cesare is jealous of juan over literally anything, and it's just the biographers being overly dramatic about him by giving him the "from zero to hero" trope (read maria bellonci's 'the life and times of lucrezia borgia' because she dives deep into this topic)

and no, cesare didn't hate juan. it's quite the opposite! his letters to his younger brother are full of tenderness, guidance, and fraternal love. it's another borgia famous rumor that needs to die down in biographies.

let's take sarah bradford (the author of 'lucrezia borgia: life, love, and death in renaissance Italy' and cesare borgia: his life and times) for example, and how she deliberately cut the part where cesare signs his letter to juan with "dal vostro fratello che vi ama com se stesso." translated as "from your brother who loves you as himself" because of her unnecessary haterism towards juan since she likes hyping cesare at his expense.

she also manipulated a document about the ambassador who visited cesare. here's a snippet from her book:

the actual translation from the document (praising both brothers) :

at this point, i'm convinced that if sarah bradford (and authors like her) didn't burst blood vessels for one minute by projecting her one-sided beef towards juan onto cesare with her unfair, incorrect statements of him she might start getting chills and have a stroke

that's it for now! i'm planning to make a masterpost about stuff like that because there are a lot of infamous rumors that some biographers tend to resort to, which is truly exhausting lol

#like i get it if it was historical fiction but when authors include false narratives in biographies with zero factual basis then yikes #anyway read emma lucas's “lucrezia borgia” for a goodass biography about the borgias #make sure you check gustavo sacerdote's “cesare borgia” as well !! #me being offended on cesare's behalf bc he's always paintef as a loser??? #and juan is always getting clocked for nothing i gotta stand beside him sometimes #house of borgia #the borgias #biography #biografia #borgia #cessre borgia #juan borgia #the borgia family #books #reading #historical drama #historical fiction #historical figures #history #historical

sorry I find it insane to call it transmisogynist to say that trans women do not get menstrual periods. a period isn't just any sort of cramping or emotional change resulting from hormones, it's the result of a specific interaction between a hormonal cycle led by processes that occur in the ovaries and specific kinds of receptor cells that exist in the uterus and ovaries. cis women who don't have a uterus/ovaries also don't have periods. it's not a metaphysical thing that affects you for nebulously Being A Woman.

#so many posts like biology class lied to you!! [says something that is just factually completely demonstrably false]

everyone likes to make fun of damen saying his argument at the trial was just “your honor he is innocent bc. i love him” but that’s not true at all!

damen speaks specifically of laurent’s character and behavior with his army, his servants, his people, and his devotion to vere in general. he calls laurent dedicated and honest, all relevant contradictions to the accusations made against him in this stupid ass trial.

he gives a coherent testimony about laurent as a person from his perspective since the first time he met him on the way laurent was outside of the fact that they were lovers and AFTER that the very last thing he adds in for a little flavour is that damen enjoyed laying with him implications of that being basically no guys laurent is not a depraved freak

and in fact the first person who claims damen’s testimony is just a love declaration with no weight is the regent.

which it's not to say that it wasn't a heartful declaration when it was, but it was also a valid testimony for god's sake, literally no worse than guion’s was. it just wasn’t aligned with the regent's intended result of the trial.

#damen #damen x laurent #captive prince #kings rising #damen ending on that lovers note must've made it so easy for the regent to twist it as the meaningless biased words #of some lovesick idiot. but they were not #if guions whole Mess said something about the parts of the trial that werent in the book #let me tell you. false testimonies were definitely the best arguments these people had against laurent #maybe like a falsified letter or document. but really it mostly must have been people talking trash #giving quote unquote testimonies #damen's was fine. he spent a lot of time with laurent he Was There factually so his word counts #im guilty myself of making these jokes btw bc its funny but you know. the facts are there and they are also fun

nothing will make you sympathise with conspiracy theorist ideology more than having a seemingly rare reaction to a vaccine lmao.

#reading articles that try to falsify genuine incorrect information about the covid vaccines from 2021 is making me feel insane #'there's no way the covid vaccine can trigger an autoimmune disorder' uhhhhhhhhhHHHHHHHHHHHH #factually extremely wrong! #they're soooo condescening too like why on EARTH do you think people who are genuinely sick or scared would believe you. #they'll be like there's no scientific evidence that anyone can be harmed by the covid vaccine <3 blatantly untrue. #I know that part of this is retrospect like obviously since more studies have come out and all #but it's infurirating bc they're from the time *I* was having those symptoms *and* telling doctors about it *and* being told the connection #to my other severe symptoms from the covid vaccine were Utterly Impossible (since proven false) and that if the symptoms WERE related #it meant i had a life threatening illness at worst and had a high chance of losing my vision at best #likeeeeeeeee #doctors still DO NOT know what the fuck they're doing do NOT trust anyone who gives ANY 100% answers #i don't know why i'm doing this i just said to stop obsessing but i'm just reading pages and articles on countering misinformation to make #sure i don't -- i want to know the conspiracy theories to recognise them immediately right #and then people are just saying bullshit to defend themselves #i mean most of the anti covid vacc people were also far right so i don't have too much sympathy for their vaccine ideology #but like. fucking hell what a way to push people into conspiracies. #you CAN'T counter misinformation by SPREADING MORE MISINFORMATION #just because it SOUNDS BETTER and MORE REASSURING to say there's not chance of harm doesn't mean you should #there's A LOW chance of harm THAT IS MUCH MUCH less high than the impacts of covid #god I'm pissed off. 2021 i was so fucking terrified of spreading this shit just by talking about my lived experiences. #to say i was not taking the pandemic seriously OR anti vax is so blatantly ridiculous considering who I am as a person but that doesn't mea #that the covid vaccine specifically didn't make me ill :////// #delete

It's really vile how Zionists speak so loudly claiming that to be Jewish is to be Zionist, that most Jews are Zionists. They're relying on some notion that most people don't know anyone who is Jewish so can't deny that claim, I guess.

But most of my extended family - my grandparents, my many aunts and uncles, my many more cousins - and many of my childhood friends, and friends today, are Jewish.

I learned to be against Zionism when I was very young, because they taught me that anti-Zionism is not antisemitism. I learned to be against Zionism because they have spoken loudly about the need to end to apartheid in Israel and Palestine. I continue to be against Zionism because I, and the Jewish community that I know, stand firmly against genocide, apartheid, and colonialism.

I would have come to this point regardless. To be anti war, anti colonialist, and to stand up against police and military violence and genocide, has been a through line of my beliefs since childhood. And I have also been lucky to know and learn from Palestinian classmates about their lives and struggles. But I can't deny the strong influence my Jewish family has had in steering me to be against Zionism.

My point is: you can't claim to me that all Jews, or even most Jewish people, are Zionists. I have known plenty who aren't.

I'll stand up and speak out against antisemitism when I see it, but to equate being against Zionism with being antisemitic is a vile tactic to erase the many, many Jewish people who stand in solidarity with Palestinians of all backgrounds.

If being friends with Jews and wanting them to be safe as an ethnic and religious group, and to be against Zionism, seem like two contradictory statements to you -- I hope you learn to care for your fellow humans a little more, and I don't want to know you until you do.

#personal #felt the need to make this post #obviously knowing people from a minority group doesn't give anyone the right to say just anything or speak for them #etc #including me #but to suggest that most jews are Zionists is factually wrong and I am sharing this as just another anecdotal piece of evidence of that #to suggest that most jews view antizionism as antisemitism is also false #long post

having parents who’s first language isn’t english is funny in a wide variety of ways but mostly because my dad will like consistently she/he me. on accident

#ITS SO GOOD. ITS SO GOOD #EVERY TIME HE REFERS TO ME WITH HE/HIM PRONOUNS ITS LIKEYESSSSSSSSSSZSS . TRANS ALLY #<- factually false #shamsisms

[darishima]

GOD IM SO FUCKING HAPPY !!! THEY FINALLY CHANGED YAMATO'S CHARACTER DESCRIPTION ON MYANIMELIST FROM THE BULLSHIT TRANSPHOBIC STUFF TO ACTUALLY USING THE RIGHT PRONOUNS !! WHATEVER MAL ADMIN DID THAT, I LOVE YOU <3

#yamato #one piece #casey talks #i was so pissed off about that for so long #“yamato is [spoiler]'s daughter but was raised as his son so she could be an heir-” kys kys kys #im so fucking glad it's correct now <3 #also what it said before was actually factually false #him being a guy had nothing to do with being an heir and there's no reason he couldnt be if he was a woman #so whoever wrote that was literally just making shit up so they didnt have to respect his gender

[grendelsmilf]

what I love about this post is that it’s so clearly wrong. both of these people are obviously wrong. like there is a topologically correct answer to this question and it’s neither of these

#I think abt this all the time #math is one of the only things in the world that can be factually true or false and this person chose to be wrong with their whole chest #o

[jewishbarbies]

haven’t seen much of anything about the trial but it’s over already i guess and jonathon majors was found guilty of assault and harassment. it feels like when megan was in her trial against tory recently and everyone and their dog was insulting her and saying she was lying and then the bastard who shot her was found guilty.

#g talks #everyone’s all for supporting the white woman who factually lied with false evidence #but the minute a black woman is telling the truth #suddenly all women are liars and doing it for attention #and ‘you can’t keep a good man down’ or some shit #inch resting #mine #/mobile #/okay to reblog

Can't wait for the day where more people realise gender ≠ sex, and sex was never binary to begin with. It was never simply male or female, intersex exists and so does a huuuge variation of sex chromosomes. Just admit you're uneducated

#basic #if your argument is one's sex is based of genitals then what about intersex? #and if your argument is based off sex chromosomes... how about those with turner's syndrom? #how about those who have syndromes/disorders that get them for have something like 5 X chromosomes? #if theres anything anyone who's gone through highschool should know... then you know the stuff you learn is ultra-simplified #math is a perfect example of a course where you learn one thing to learn 10 other things that negate that one thing #biology and psychology are 100000000000x more complex than anything you learned in high school #if your basis of knowledge for gender or sex is high school... youre uneducated #you can find evidence of the sex chromosome variations with a quick google search and same with the spectrum of intersex #being uneducated and refusing to be educated because it goes against your factually false beliefs is a painfully ugly quality #brain rambles #*based off (it's early and tumblr tags are not edit-friendly) #*syndrome (aaaaaa)

people being wrong about my silly little youtube horror shows again

#this isnt the monmyth 'bad interpretation' type of wrong for once its just like. literally wrong. saying things that are false. #bc i was watching a video and they brought up marble hornets but half of what they said abt it was just. factually incorrect. #avpost #it was just clear that they haven't ever watched it but like if ur gonna talk about it in any depth then like #the least you could do is watch one of the dozens of MH Explained videos to make sure you know what its about smh. #bc its not like it was small details. they were major huge things that even just reading a full plot summary would have cleared up. #its fine whatever. blasts you with my autism beam and turns you into dust

[emmavonskulltaker]

I have gone viral again and this time I did it to someone else’s post which is rude I’m sorry

#and now to very firmly not go read the comments #because people want to correct my facts but just because some people HAVE doesn’t mean my facts are untrue #I am factually correct #and the proof that I am false is an example of something other than what I was talking about #old man yells at clouds

[turpentine-a7]

if someone feels like everyone should have their pronouns in their bio or somehow disclose their personal pronouns always everywhere it feels like they've somehow lost the ability to use gender neutral pronouns cuz they loaded gender neutral pronouns with some kind of gender so when they use they/them pronouns on anyonw they feel like thwy could be accidentally misgendering that person.............. with gender neutral pronouns...... because they think gender neutral is like.. non binary or something..........

#even if for example a trans person doesn't want gender neutral pronouns used on them they shouldn't call it misgendering cuz its not #im not saying its wrong to feel that way but factually speaking the word misgendering doesnt belong there #i dont know how to articulate thiss #and im not even like complaining about bwaah factually that is false bwää #what im saying is that for gender neutral people it feels really uncomfortable that people have started treating gender neutral things #as gendered in some type of way
