The world if people had the same energy, the same hatred, and the same desire to “hold accountable” literal rapists as they do with women who talk about their lived reality related to their sex

a 16 year old trans girl was murdered on the weekend. i bet youre happy right? just elated that another one of us is dead and gone right? this is what you want, osnt it?

remember when a trans woman killed two lesbians & their son and some of u genuinely argued that they must’ve been terfs who deserved it? yeah. not everyone sits there wishing for & justifying random minorities being murdered like your movement does.

As a radfem of Rwandan descent, I find the “trans genocide” discourse especially heinous. I don’t understand why they’re so quick to use such language to describe not being able to access artificial hormones as children…like honeyyyy my paternal grandparents were murdered by their neighbors. During the Rwandan genocide, ~800,000-1,000,000 people died in the span of around one hundred days. That’s a genocide. In the United States, ~38 trans people were murdered last year…..be fucking for real.

It’s so insensitive to call that a genocide when there are real people who have actually experienced atrocities. It shows how sheltered and terminally online tra people are. It’s simply a high pressure sales tactic to get unwitting people to join their bandwagon because if you don’t, then…you support a “genocide” and that makes you a big fat meanie!!

Adrien Brody is a cute cinnamon role don’t touch him uwu even though he worked with a literal pedophile knowing that Polanski was a literal pedophile.

So why does guilt by association always work for women and not for men?

"Civilization"

[alien-bear]

Imagine reading about the Holocaust. I mean really fucking reading about it. Imagine knowing that there are still people to this day being arrested for their involvement. Survivors who can still show you parts of what happen on their body and tell you what they saw and who they lost. The German penal code prohibits publicly denying the Holocaust and disseminating Nazi propaganda, both off- and online. You see the Evidence of Crimes from the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial.

You look at that, and you go, "Damn. That's exactly what I'm going through right now."

Like dude, fuuuuuuuuuuuck you.

shaking six year old me by the shoulders YOU WERE RIGHT. YOU WERE RIGHT ABOUT LOVE AND ABOUT FAIRNESS AND ABOUT SHARING IS CARING. YOU WERE RIGHT. THE ADULTS DON’T KNOW ANY MORE ABOUT TRUTH THAN YOU DO. KEEP BELIEVING IN THE FAIRIES AT THE BOTTOM OF THE GARDEN. NOTHING IS “JUST THE WAY IT IS”. I AM SORRY THEY EVER CONVINCED YOU TO FEEL SHAME. YOU ARE REAL AND A PART OF THIS WORLD. YOU WERE RIGHT.

i feel like people hate abstract art not because its “ugly” or “a thing a kid can make” but because all the well known abstract artists are pretentious assholes who think theyre soooooo galaxy brain for making bad art because it “challenges what art is” or some bullshit and we just hate their guts

i think especially with relatively near future sci-fi and alternate present/just off reality sci-fi and fantasy, it’s a lot more effective to play off of “this word is the same, but the thing it refers to is in fact different than what you’ll initially picture or assume” than to invent a bunch of cutesy fake slang (again, ESPECIALLY for things we already have good words for)

like, for a real life example of what im talking about– we had “phones” in 1977, and we still have “phones” in 2017, but MAN would a time traveler from the 70s be confused by the things we call “phones” now, and the ways we use and relate to them– “im typing this text post on my phone, and autocorrect keeps cramping my style” is a straightforward and easily understandable sentence to me in 2017. it would sound like word salad to someone from 1977. (how can you TYPE something on a PHONE?? what does “post” mean in this context, or “text”? the fuck is “autocorrect”??)

but we still call them “phones”, you know, and not, idk, “cyberrectangles”

having a child has taught me that every toddler is completely justified in their frustrations and tantrums because learning how to do something you have literally never encountered or heard of before is insane. and being expected to be completely calm in the face of this constant barrage of overwhelming information is doubly insane.

i got charlie a sticker activity book and it occurred to me i have to TEACH someone how to unpeel stickers. it's SKILL that requires DEXTERITY and FINE MOTOR ABILITY. i thought it was obvious that you have to curl the page a little bit to create a break in the cut so the sticker comes up.

obviously a fucking BABY wouldn't know that because they have no background experience to inform their thought process. OBVIOUSLY. and OBVIOUSLY the LITERAL BABY wouldn't get it right the first few times. it would OBVIOUSLY take practice. lots of it.

i hate this feeling. it's so obvious. why are children treated so badly when they're learning everything for the first fucking time. why do people treat children so horribly and expect so much. they're brand new. why didn't i get the same grace i give to my child? why did no one have patience for me? why, when it's this easy?

it's so easy. it's so fucking easy.

If feminism doesn’t include intergalactic space toads, then it’s not real feminism. And if it doesn’t include prostate owners who can’t get pregnant, mothers who donate semen, and people who are terrorized by hairdressers asking what their genitals look like, then, again, again, that’s not real feminism. If you exclude these groups, can you even call yourself a feminist? The answer is “no.” So who is feminism for?

Feminism is not for people who don’t centre lady dick; these people are not real feminists. There’s a reason the lady peens (those fantastic female phalluses) stand erect: it’s because they are meant to draw our attention, every last bit, like spires in the distance guiding us to liberation. If feminists stay focused on the phallus, their freedom remains in sight. Don’t forget this.

Who can be a feminist, you ask? Well, if your feminism doesn’t include ladies with hairy testicles, alien abductees, men who helm influential media companies, people who have blisters on their feet from breaking in new shoes, and those who oppose the Canadian seal hunt, then you are not a real feminist.

Are you confused yet? That’s okay. Feelings of confusion just mean that you’re queering the cis-supremacist-hetero-patriarchy inside your mind. This is hard emotional labour. Your confusion is valid and so are you.

Now, let’s talk about talking about feminism. If your feminist rhetoric doesn’t include clappy hands (emoticons only, always refrain from real life clapping to be inclusive of the neurodiverse) between every word, then No (CLAP) One (CLAP) Can (CLAP) Hear (CLAP) You (CLAP). Only bigots don’t clap between words because they secretly know they are bigots and don’t want to draw attention to what they have to say. Real feminists know this.

These are some words that constitute dog-whistles for anti-feminist hate speech: vagina; vulva; uterus; woman; mother; and biology. Watch out for these, feminists know they are bad words and won’t ever use them. Also watch out for AFABs (assigned females at birth) who reject their cis-ness. They are TERFs.

We all know there’s no cis in team, but did you also know that it’s feminism, not femiCISm? Everyone knows there’s no such thing as the “mythical biological female,” so let’s please make it illegal for uterus-havers to talk about their so-called biology. You know what word should have a “cis” in it? Bitch.

It’s 2020. We should all know better. We should do better.

If feminism doesn’t include people with gluten sensitivities, those who were born on February 29, and anyone who shaves a patch above their ear and dyes their hair blue, then who is it for? No, seriously. Do you know? I can’t remember.

People who believe that small children are proof that gender roles are natural are really on a whole other level.

A young child, using words she learned purely by mimicking the way others speak: I want to be a mommy when I grow up.

Y’all absolute Mensa candidates: Wow. This child is a blank slate. Completely unaffected by society. Guess lady-brains truly are the only explanation here, science deniers.

i hope you understand that woman is a gender

If by gender you mean the biological sex, then yes.

If by gender you mean a set of patriarchal stereotypes and limiting expectations of men and women without taking into account their personality, then no. Unless you’re taliban or an American conservative, or a neo-conservative who self-identifies as woke while believing the exact same things as conservatives, just calling it gender ideology.

As I’m neither a taliban, nor an American conservative, nor a member of the gender ideology sect, I don’t believe in the latter. Only the former.

The most blatant example of gaslighting that I faced was during a debate where a person said that pervs never ever ever try to pretend they’re TW to go and sexually harass women and that the idea they’d go to female bathrooms just to masturbate is ludicrous at best and ASKED FOR PROOF THAT IT HAPPENS.

So I shared literal videos and screen captures of that.

And that person then said that *I* was sexually harassing her/him/xem/whatever BCAUSE I WAS “SHARING PORN UNDER THEIR COMMENT”

I was ganged on upon, asked to “apologise” repeatedly because I shared TWO Comments with links on videos and texts THAT THOSE PERVS THAT “don’t exist” THEMSELVES SHARED.

It’s next level gaslighting.
