Note: My impartiality has been called into question, and a question of the comm title has been raised. I never claimed to be unbiased. However, I round up everything I can find on the topic, and while I try not to list signalboost posts, I don't intend to leave out anything substantial. (I'll include signalboosts if they've sparked interesting discussions.)

Advice on this would be welcome.
I do this for my own reasons; if what people want from [community profile] linkspam falls outside of those, I won't be willing/able to participate here. I am willing to tell people how I do this (in insane detail), have other people help, or step down if that's wanted; I'm not willing to change my methods just because someone says "you're doing it wrong!" I might be willing to change them if people convince me I'm doing it wrong; that's not the same thing.

Didn't say I don't care what oppressed people say. I said I'm not in this to win their approval. I can care what they say, and not be interested in having that be "Elf is cool."

You volunteering to help, or just want to stand on the sidelines and wish someone who agreed with you was doing the work?

this comm is about exposing how privilege functions.

How is it failing at that?
