Tumblr blocks antifa tag in gifs?

Maybe it’s just me, but it turns out that if you want to add a gif to a post, gifs with the antifa tag aren’t showing up. (let me know if this still works for you) soooo, I guess we all know what’s going to happen with Tumblr’s new “anti-hate speech” rules.

Antifascists will probably be blocked for saying things like “punch nazis” while the nazis will keep free reign like they have before when they say things like “the holocaust never happened” or “1488” or any of the other open calls to genocide and bigoted violence that they get away with here.

Let’s keep a good eye on how this stuff develops from september 10th, when they start implementing their supposed new anti-hate speech rules, cause you know we can’t trust @staff to do the right thing by themselves. 

I checked it and the same goes for words like “White nationalism”, “Nazi”, “Neonazism”. So this is Tumblr openly equating resistance to fascism and racism with fascism and racism itself. They can’t hide behind an “it’s just the algorithm!” excuse here, and we must demand a public reaction from @staff: Do you oppose antifascism?
