Remove the White Supremacists

Dear Tumblr @staff,

In light of the recent white supremacist terror attacks worldwide:

We, the Tumblr community (your community), implore you to change your previously passive policy against white supremacy and white nationalist extremist ideologies.

Every major news station, social expert, and experts on extremist ideologies have identified that these extremist ideologies are spread and grown on online platforms: specifically social platforms. They have identified the major ways that communities can confront these violent extremist views; the biggest one being for social media groups to actually start removing user accounts that post and spread extremist white nationalist dog whistles, memes, and rhetoric.

Your users are begging for your help in stemming the rising tide of xenophobic violence. As has become evident by the recent terrorist attack in Christchurch, New Zealand, these ideologies don’t begin with violence, but with strategically spouted rhetoric and hate speech that riles up others who are vulnerable to being persuaded by their subtle methods.

Please. If you support the safety of your users. If you support the Muslim Community. If you support the Jewish Community. If you support People of Color. If you support your users regardless of color or religious background.

Then it’s time to start taking a proactive stance against extremist white supremacist and nationalist ideologies and remove them.

The signatures and reblogs below should serve to show you how strongly your userbase feels about this. We all stand for a world without Hate. Do you?

Allow us to reintroduce someone … the name’s Perseverance.

With this new name, our Mars 2020 rover has now come to life! Chosen by middle school student Alex Mather, Perseverance helps to remind ourselves that no matter what obstacles we face, whether it’s on the way to reaching our goals or on the way to Mars, we will push through. In Alex’s own words, ⁣⁣

“We are a species of explorers, and we will meet many setbacks on the way to Mars. However, we can persevere. We, not as a nation but as humans, will not give up. The human race will always persevere into the future.” ⁣

Welcome to the family.⁣ ❤️

⁣Make sure to follow us on Tumblr for your regular dose of space: http://nasa.tumblr.com.

Here’s another photo of De (looking awesome in his coat, vest and tie) during the Star Trek production team’s visit to a NASA facility in 1967.

The photos below have been posted before by me and others (check out @star trek nasa visit), but I like to have them all together in one post, so there you go.
