Welcome to /c/Tumblr
All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cursed
This isn’t your personal call-out post.
- No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
- Keep it fun and weird, not mean-spirited
Rule 2: No Forbidden Posts
Some things belong in the drafts forever. That means:
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content (don’t make this a federal case)
- NSFW screenshots must be properly tagged
If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can handle it. Otherwise just reblog and relax.

Casual French bashing
Replacing French in that sentence by Arabic, Hindi or Chinese would probably show that post in a different light.
Awww, is the colonial language upset that it doesn't get the same protections as languages it tried to enslave or obliterate?
Shitting on French is punching up, shitting on those languages would be punching down.
They listed Arabic, so your comment does not hold true.
Buddy I think the French will be okay, but thanks for the extra laugh seriously
Its okay to be racist against French German Italian English Japanese and american¹ cultures, and cultural appropriation against them doesnt count.
You know, because they exported their cultures at gunpoint and did all those imperialist atrocities.
¹white only. Fucking with indigenous people or African Americans not cool
