I hate to vagueblog but things on my dash have forced my hand.

Guys, really don’t reblog shit from medievalpoc.

I know the pictures are pretty, and its tempting to hit the reblog button when you see a face in 18th century England that looks like yours.

But their history is bad, they’ve lied about their ethnicity multiple times (doesnt’t that sort of thing piss you off!? PLEASE!?), they’ve run scams, and just give the actually legitimate area of study – that is, of non-western individuals in Western/European art and art history – a bad rep because of it.

For the love of history, just DONT.
