Alex came to the defence of anti-fascists being assaulted by multiple members of the Proud Boys in Albany, New York on January 6, 2021. In the resulting fracas, two Proud Boys members were stabbed and Alex was charged with the stabbing. In the fall of 2022, he received a twenty-year prison sentence. His supporters have set up a web site with information about his case, donation links, and recommended actions. We’ve also set up a crowdfunder to finance the appeal of his sentence here.

‘Why is trending so weird’ because of tag spam. Because people (and bots) are tagging like it’s Instagram.

This is spam. It’s against TOS and it throws trending completely out of whack, along with being wildly annoying.

Please, please, PLEASE report posts like this as spam, because otherwise it’s just gonna get fucking worse

‘Cottagecore’ is trending right now and the tag is literally 80% spam from real humans who don’t fucking know how tumblr tags work

I'm glad more people are addressing this because it is a serious issue, arguably as bad as the bot epidemic.

But here it is in the Terms of Service. It's been there long before this shit started happening.

Intentionally tagging incorrect tags is abusing the tag system and therefore against the TOS. The posts that tag shit like images of cigarettes as celebrity names.

That's what the TOS is trying to avoid. Within good reason. OP is right; the longer this is condoned, the more people will join in, the more prevalent this gets, and the less relevant tags will become. Tags will be as relevant here as they are on Instagram or TikTok and shit.

That and it's just fucking annoying and disrespectful to other people's time, all for the sake of scrambling for popularity online whatsoever, let alone Tumblr out of all sites.

So to anyone still bitching on how this "unfair" because you want an excuse to abuse the algorithm to get likes on your dusty ass selfie, please fuck off back to one of those platforms instead.

Oh crap I didn’t know about this lemme go through my posts o-o

Just to add to this. Having tags, even a lot of them, is ok, as long as they're relevant. Posting art of several characters and tagging them with the fandom and each character or something is ok. Tagging your selfie as every generic/popular tag you can think of is not.
