Allyship rule
(sh.itjust.works)
ID: Drawing of a duck billed platypus underwater, they're wearing a rainbow coloured t shirt and a pink bum-bag, and saying: "Ally is not something you can self-identify as, it's a title that you earn. Let your actions speak for themselves!"

If someone feels like this post (or any other boundary set by the people they claim to want to support) is keeping them from being an ally, they never were one in the first place.
I don't think this post is keeping anyone from being an ally, it just kinda sounds like there is some authority that decides if you are an ally or not.
I think your core message is "don't go around telling people you're an ally, go BE an ally", but it could be misinterpreted.
There IS an authority - it's whatever group you're claiming to help. They're the ones who get to decide if you actually ARE helping or not, and it works like this for a bunch of honorary titles.
Are you saying that everyone who disagrees with you personally isn't an ally of the entire group?
Absolutely unhinged
I'll take that over being a piece of shit bigot.. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You live in a fantasy world. Nothing you believe is real
