I Be So In Love With The Fake Scenarios I Create In My Head

"It's ridiculous to say, 'I don't care what anyone says about me,' because that's not possible. But you can decide whose opinions matter more and whose opinions you put more weight on"

I think there is a lot of disconnect that goyim have between their actions and how it impacts jews.

What I mean by this is calling for/doing things in which the direct action is not antisemetic, but the result of the action is. For example;

Motivation: "Hillel is run by zionists'

Action: calling for hillel to be removed from all universities

Result: the main organization which helps jews have a community at university as well as helps handle antisemitism jewish students face, is now gone. Jews have no guaranteed community on campus unless students who are busy studying can take on the work load of running it. They also now have to find a local rabbi for the group and also have no extra protection against antisemitism.

(This is all ignoring that hillel doesn't even promote violence and is being targeted simply for being a Jewish organization on campus)

Motivation: "we want to make zionists lives as hard as possible"

Action: Targeting people who they assume are zionists

Result: because you cannot tell if someone is a zionist unless you ask them their opinions on Israel and Palestine, a lot of jews get targeted for simply being jewish because antizionists view a lot of things which are originally jewish as inherently Israeli and therefore is an admittance of zionism. For those who try to verbally clarify if a jew is a zionist, usually they end up harassing jews to give their opinion on Israel and Palestine, even though they are not entitled to jews or anyone's opinion on anything.

(This is ignoring that anything inherently Israeli is bad as that's also false)

Just because your direct action is not antisemetic, doesn't mean the result of your action isn't, and that still makes your action antisemetic.

"Why do you have to put down my dreams, so you're the only thing on my mind?"

I have reason to believe that 'Tell Me Why' is one of the most powerful songs Taylor Swift has written.

What makes this song great is its versatility; the lyrics can be applied to any situation wherein an abusive power dynamic between two parties is involved. TS described it as being about a tug of war in which "someone always kind of has the upper hand." With that in mind, the perspectives are endless. Depending on whom you talk to, this song could be about gender, racial, or wealth inequality, classism, even.

This versatility is what helps a song maintain its relevance. It's what makes some songs timeless. Music that isn't shackled to specific eras or circumstances has the capacity to be appreciated longer, and by wider audiences, because it doesn't shut people out. This is the music that can live on forever and ever. To me, that's power.

It is this style of songwriting that TS has mastered - that delicate balance between confession and ambiguity in her lyrics that gives you a sense of something she might have experienced, but also isn't so personal as to exclude the possibility of that experience being echoed by millions of other people.

This is Taylor's unique talent, and 'Tell Me Why' exemplifies it perfectly.

I am not sure how to reply to you on my post, but I really want to read your fanfiction! Where can I find it?

I'm flattered! But it's still in my notebook in draft form. I will make an announcement when I publish it, and when I do, you can find it on Archive of Our Own.

Men, especially cis straight white men, saying “what if it was the other way around huh?” with literally zero concept of power dynamics or historical context is one of the most boring things in existence

I am a published writer myself. Some of the most impressive written works I have read in my brief lifetime have been fanfiction. 'Projects In Controlled Environments,' one of my all-time favorites.

reblog if you’ve read fanfictions that are more professional, better written than some actual novels. I’m trying to see something

The best thing I’ve done for myself is to never download tik tok
