I just looked at a profile on #UpScroll and it was unsettling. They had a list of #identitymarkers resembling a roller-coaster ride. Being a #lefty and a #patriot doesn't compute. But what I found worse, was the use of the term #whitetrash. Eventhough they used it in a self-deprecating sense, the term itself is very problematic. Besides the #classicism, it divides yts into trash and not-trash, while hiding the fact that the non-trash are the ones creating trash (literally and figuratively). /1
