i stopped liking posts entirely a while ago. i think people still feel like they have to like every post they see, sometimes. but i stopped liking any post that was a reblog a long time ago, and then i stopped liking original posts too. if you don't hit like on the reblog bait, then nobody will know you saw it without reblogging it.
this is valid, and i'm glad you found a way to feel better about scrolling past reblog bait
can we please admit that having racist intrusive thoughts still makes you a racist even if you "can't control them"? they're still thoughts in your head it's still your responsibility to stamp them out and if you can't you have no right to interact with any poc in any way. don't bother begging for forgiveness unless/until you've cleansed your mind fully and completely
