Read on Twitter
hey okay i just want to discuss a few things
so i’ve just been seeing so many people assuming things about my tweets so i just wanted to address them so y’all don’t think i’m some ignorant asshole cuz i’m genuinely not and i never tweet anything with cruel intentions
1. slurs- i made a tweet joking that “indie is a slur u shouldn’t say it.” This WAS NOT DIRECTED TO DENOUNCE SLURS AS SLURS ARE A SERIOUS FORM OF HATE CRIME USED TO UNDERMINE MINORITY GROUPS. I’m not going to get into anything too much but i get called slurs everyday
so i understand the impact they have on a first-hand basis. However, recently i’ve seen so many people denouncing the severity of slurs. I have seen so many people recently say indie IS a slur UNIRONICALLY (short for independent) so the tweet was making fun of those people
who are denouncing and un-legitimizing the impact of slurs
2. tw’s- i made some tweets saying tw// followed by various words. THIS WAS NOT MEANT TO DENOUNCE THE USE OF TWs as I YET AGAIN, first-hand, am educated on why we use them in the first place. Honestly it was dumb of me to improperly use them and i’m so sorry for that
But just know my intention was not to denounce them, thank you for calling me out on that, i appreciate it. I literally saw someone say it (what i tweeted) on a review on letterboxd and thought it was funny so i tweeted it, not rlly thinking much ab it.
But ya i just wanted to say that, and i hope you know i never have bad intentions with anything i say and i literally tweet everything on here to either rant or to make people laugh. But regardless of my intentions i’m sorry if you interpreted them in a negative manner.
going forward pls remember that influencers are normal people. Please remember that i have a life off of social media, and there are many things i have gone through/experience that you do not know about. I am 19 years old and only ab 2 years of my life have been shown on sm.
ALWAYS hold influencers accountable but also remember to be respectful in doing so. BUT YET AGAIN ALSO THANK U FOR CHECKING ME. But going forward here’s some links that i found that if you are uneducated on tw’s or slurs can help you better understand their severity.
