they banned ap psych in florida cuz the class ap discusses sexuailty and gender which violates ron desantis' piece of shit dont say gay law so fuck you ron for that
in the college board statement they say it was banned because "teaching foundational content on sexual orientation and gender identity is illegal under state law" which is bullshit because these gov leaders believe anything lgbtq is a brain disease so you'd think theyd keep the brain learning class
they banned ap african american studies because "it lacks educational value and historical accuracy" which is making it easier for them to erase black history that is so intertwined with the history of this country that most everything here is so deeply antiblack
this mf has his head so far up his ass that hes ruining our education system even more than it already was

i wanna preface this by saying i dont really care if you use tme/tma. i think arguing abt the language and terminology we use is very dumb. i think the same abt transandrophobia discourse and i dont see why its not also true of tme/tma
the problem i have with them as terms within a trans/feminist framework is largely HOW people use them and not with the terms themselves. in a social sphere where 'privilege' is treated as a personal identifier, it makes total sense that some people would correlate Being a thing with being treated Like that thing. if you identify as a man, this means you are treated as a man, and thus have access to male privilege. myself, personally, i dont mind calling myself tme in specific discussions, bc i find that it's true that transmisogyny does not generally apply to me.
but the trans man who was mistaken for a trans woman and assaulted? the cis 24/7 drag queen whose existence became illegal in her state?
they are 'tme' and yet their lives remain touched and dictated by transmisogyny, both interpersonal and systemic. privilege is not something that is an aspect of how you IDENTIFY, it is how you are treated by the world at large based on others' perception of you. using tme/tma like they are interchangeable with non-transfem/transfem is a mistake and they more often hinder discussion on transphobia in my experience, where people who arent "affected" are told they are derailing when they add to the conversation

" 😒gojo" to " 🥺 gojo"
its a very real pipeline !! hes my beloved even tho he drives me up a wall !! but ykw our banter is very good
LMAO BUT sometimes i will get the occasional anon that will be very aggressive like "rmr when u hated gojo ?? u need to back off bc u didn't even like him from the start" and i have to laugh bc i never hated him 💀 like my gojo "slander" was literally just me saying "i dont think gojo is as hot as everyone acts like he is. also he talks a lot"
WHICH I STILL STAND BY bc back then i'd only watched the anime and hadn't touched the manga yet and yall have to be real. like be so real rn. anime gojo is not nearly as hot as manga gojo ok ?? i was unimpressed im ngl
