Description
Tumblr is fucking crazy isn't it? Goddammit, now I'm ableist. Because yes, saying crazy make you ableist.
According to Tumblr anyway.
So, what exactly are the claims tumblrites are making to think Twenty One Pilots are Ablest? Well, its;
- The fact their music is referred to as Schizophrenic Pop
- They're are playing off psychosis as an aesthetic
- They are said words like crazy, insane, psychopath, freak show, heathens
- The line "Sometimes quiet is violent" hurts death/mute people
Yeah, lets debunk this shit.
"The fact their music is referred to as Schizophrenic Pop"
Neither Josh or Tyler asked and said that their music is called Schizophrenic Pop. Then who came up with it? Their fans, especially their younger fans. Do they know that people call their music this? Yeah they do, how do they react? "That's cool." They don't go screaming telling people to stop, seeing as they know most of their fans are young teens (and girls) and reacting in a extremely negative way could really hurt a fan. AND THE FACT YOU CAN'T BLAME THE BAND FOR SOMETHING THEIR FANS MADE UP JESUS CHRIST.
"They're are playing off psychosis as an aesthetic"
I can somewhat see where people may be coming from, but they tend to miss the most important facts about a lot of their songs. The fact that Tyler Joseph, aka the guy that sings and writes them, has had depression and has had mental health issues before. He doesn't write songs like "Goner" or "Car Radio" or hell, a lot of their songs, from no place what-so-ever and thinks its cool. Music is the way he deals with depression and mental health issues. So, if anything, its pretty ableist to assume all his songs are about aesthetic rather than his actual heart and experience with mental health issues.
"They are said words like crazy, insane, psychopath, freak show, heathens"
OH SWEET LORD THIS POINT. EVERYONE ALWAYS BRINGS THIS UP AND I'VE BEEN WAITING.
Saying the word crazy or insane doesn't make someone fucking ableist. And usually if he does say them in a song he's talking about himself or his brain. What about heathens, psychopath and freak show? ITS LITERALLY FROM THE SONG HEATHENS WHICH WAS MADE FOR SUICIDE SQUAD WHICH MEANS, GUESS WHAT, ITS ABOUT SUICIDE SQUAD.
"The line "Sometimes quiet is violent" hurts death/mute people"
No........it doesn't. The line means when there is nothing to distract yourself from your thoughts, your thoughts get more and more violent. And as someone who suffers with Anxiety and Depression, I can say first hand that if I don't distract myself from my own thoughts, I think about them and they grow and grow. Its not about being mute or being deaf.
What next? People are going to think Top is racist- Oh wait people do and all their points are bullshit. Anyway, if you still think top are ableist after this then, ya know..............Can you please leave?
Please do not use this piece if you are a;
Terf, Swerf, Ace Exclusionist, Transmed/Truscum, Nazi, (No)map, anti-anti etc, or intend to make fun of it

I'm not even a fan of TOP, but I agree that the claims some people make about them are awful.

THANK YOU, I think saying a mentally ill person can't write about their mental illness seems more ableist to me. I think people using Heathens as an argument is pretty weak, I mean what movie doesn't have a tie in song lately???
As for the blackface comments with blurry face, the same argument was used against Marina and the Diamonds because she painted herself like a galaxy for a video. I just don't get it???

The main points people say are
"Blurryface has black paint on him so its blackface!" Which is soo wrong it hurts.
"Tyler is appropriating black culture because he's rapping!" Which again, is so wrong.
And the one everyone goes to is how some lines in Lane Boy are apparently taking stabs at other artists that happen to be people of colour. (Like the line "Don't trust a perfect person and don't trust a song thats flawless" is apparently a stab at beyoncé and its racist because of that? And the line in Fairly Local "this song will never be on the radio, Even if my clique were to pick and the people were to vote, It’s the few, the proud, and the emotional" is a stab at Drake and that the fact Tyler doesn't like Drake that much somehow makes him racist. And back to lane boy, apparently the line "I wasn't raised in the hood, But I know a thing or two about pain and darkness" is apparently racist because to the people who think it is racist, it means he wasn't raised with black people but he knows black struggles. Even though thats not at all what that line means.
That's just some of the points I've heard, and if you couldn't guess I find them really stupid.
