Oh tragic. Youtuber Shadiversity, who has had some interesting thoughts about swords and Historical European Martial Arts, has outed himself as a raging conservative on his media critique sidechannel, where he froths constantly about the "woke agenda" and how oppressed he is for being a Christian who just wants to raise his children completely ignorant of any other way of life!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I learned this buffered by a video by Jack Saint with a slightly complicated backstory. (Basically, Shad made videos criticizing the Mario Brothers trailer and movie. Jack made a video about conservatives flipping their shit about the movie, and Shad was one such example. Shad made a two-hour reaction video saying how DARE Jack, this infamous duplicitous dishonest LIAR, imply that he's conservative or sexist or bigoted! And while we're here, Shad has some thoughts he needs to share about how awful unfeminine women and antiracism and modern sexual degeneracy are!)
Anyway, the Jack Saint video has kindly cut the relevant Shad footage down to the shortest duration possible. There's one clip early on they left uncut so they couldn't be accused of "removing context" that convinced me that having to watch more of these hot takes in their raw form would physically destroy me.
Ah well! At least we'll always have Jill Bearup.
Update: GOD DAMMIT

Western misogynists: Wow, those Muslims are so backwards and sexist, forcing women to go out with their hair covered! I don't get what women are complaining about, that's REAL sexism over there.
Western misogynists: Anyway every woman needs a 12 step skincare routine and multiple layers of carefully applied oil to leave the house because women have to be 100% aesthetically perfect at all times. If I see a pore on a woman I will scream.

hi this is kinna out of the blue and no one sent you an ask about this but today i gave myself my testosterone shot and i’ve been on T for two months and even though i haven’t had many changes yet for the first time in over a decade i’m feeling so much better about my body again. it took me until i was 34 years to transition despite knowing i wanted to since i was 19 because i live in the southern united states and they only NOW got informed consent in my state. i tried in my twenties and was put through the wringer, told my PDs or autism was making me “think” i was a man, i ended up in a domestic violence situation with a misogynist and transphobe i’m still recovering from, i had a child too, i went through drug addiction and alcohol abuse, i attempted suicide several times
AND i just wanted to spread the positivity to every trans person out there (trans men, women, nb people) that things DO GET BETTER! it makes me cry thinking about it and how i finally get to be the man, and father i always wanted to be and i am not an emotional person. if any other trans ppl no matter the age want HRT and feel like it’s never going to happen, don’t give up! keep fighting!! you won’t die this way! i don’t know how many times i imagined getting misgendered at my own funeral and dying known only as my assigned gender at birth.
keep going and stay strong and safe!!
I'm really sorry you've had to struggle through all that pain, bigotry and abuse - and it makes my day that now you're on T and feeling like it's all been worth the wait! ✊️

"Anti-feminist blogger Jean-Claude Rochefort, who was convicted of fomenting hatred against women, has been sentenced to 12 months in jail.
The 74-year-old had been arrested in December 2019 in connection with posts and doctored images he had posted to his blog, in which he praised Marc Lépine, who murdered 14 women at Montreal's École Polytechnique on Dec. 6, 1989 in an anti-feminist attack.
Charged in 2010 for making death threats against women on his website, Rochefort was writing under a pseudonym. Montreal police's cyber investigation team nevertheless managed to find him and charge him again in December 2019.
He was found guilty of wilfully promoting hatred against women last August. 
In his ruling, Quebec Superior Court Justice Pierre Labrie rejected Rochefort's claims that his publications constituted satire, exaggeration or self-deprecation.
Noting the use of the word kill and the use of images of firearms and decapitated women in the accused's posts, the judge found that Rochefort could not have been unaware that he was deliberately promoting hatred against women."

"If women and men are equal, why don't they get drafted/get sent to the military/forced to do hard labor jobs?" is a good point, but not for the reason misogynists may think. The point isn't to A) say women are lesser than men OR B) say we need to force women to do the same things as men.
The point is nobody should be drafted. The point is nobody should be forced to work hard labor or time-extensive, underpaid jobs to survive. The point isn't equal man/woman work load anymore. It's a matter of free will in late stage capitalism. Work should be optional.

That's not what that is, though. Is it?
Of course, people are allowed to complain about specific men they've had bad experiences with. Hell, they're allowed to complain about the patriarchy/other toxic systems and how it's often perpetuated by men. Even unintentionally because so many have it subconsciously engrained in their heads.
But spreading blatant misinformation is not complaining. Not only is it harmful because it's misinformation, but it harms so many groups.
Of course, there is the obvious. Men of color, trans men, gay men, they all have a long history of being viewed as "inherently evil" as a form of bigotry against them. But even more than that, even if we're talking about a stereotypical cishet white able-bodied neurotypical rich man, sexism is just never acceptable.
And it's incredibly damaging to encourage situations where bigotry is "allowed."

Considering how badly Naoto was treated in Inaba, I think the same can be said for Haru, although it's not touched on a lot because she's introduced so late into the game. Most corporations are male-oriented in Japan, so having a woman take over is a first.
They all had their doubts at first, but no one dared speak up when Okumura was alive because he actually have some amount of faith in her running the company. We won't talk about Sugimura being an obvious piece of shit who definitely needed to get his ass kicked.
A restraining order is always a good start.

if Donnie had been raised as a girl do you think that the Abe situation would have happened differently? Like would Donnie have a harder time going places alone (I feel like Splinter would ingrain it in the others that it's their responsibility to "chaperone" or keep an eye on a sister or whatever) and thus would have been harder to groom? I remember growing up and having my dad and brothers constantly tell me that men were bad and to not trust them, which I think a lot of other girls experienced too, so would Splinter have taught Donnie to be more distrustful of others/men? I know grooming affects boys too but from what I've seen a lot of parents seem to be paranoid about anything happening to their daughters without considering that it could just as easily happen to their sons as well, so if Splinter thought Donnie was a girl he might have actually tried to explain those sort of things (sorry this ended up being so long lol hope you're doing well)
i know i just made this joke with abe but- Splinter brings a kind of "You will be raped if you leave the house alone" vibe to parenting a girl that Donnie doesn't really like. (based on my experiences ayoo)
unfortunately, once he started leaving the house and realized that just wasn't a thing that was happening at the frequency his dad said it would, he kind of just threw that idea away and assumed his dad was being paranoid, because he's wandered the city and been perfectly fine (or so he thinks)
Splinter would insist that Donnie be chaperoned everywhere, (especially after donnie tried to come out as trans because Splinter thinks his daughter being weird and wanting to be a guy will make her even more of a target) but once the turtles leave it wouldn't be uncommon for the brothers to split up just for fun. like they might stay together or they might not, it's not like Splinter is actually supervising them.
SOOOO like. i think the abe situation would have happened differently, but it definitely still would have happened. and Donnie already feels stupid for "letting" it happen in the main timeline, so it would probably honestly make him feel worse in this timeline since his dad always warned him about it and he still managed to fuck up enough that it happened to him anyway. he'd feel really stupid is what im saying and it might take him longer to admit to the others what happened, because they all know that Splinters been telling Donnie not to get raped since he was like 6 years old.

Whumptober 2023 - Day 10 - In Irons
Look! Proof that I haven't forgotten about this series, either!
This is a prequel piece, taking place before Adelaide runs away in the first chapter.

No. 10: “Can’t you see that you’re lost without me?”
Contains: abusive relationship, historical sexism, insulting a woman’s appearance/body, vaguely referenced marital activities, talk of cleavage, talk of pregnancy
.
.
Charles comes up behind her as her maid is helping her dress. She always wishes he wouldn’t. He’s seen her in much more of a state of undress than her shift and stays - he’s her husband, after all - but that doesn’t keep Adelaide from feeling exposed. 
He doesn’t touch, and doesn’t get in the way as her petticoat is slipped over her head. He just watches, looking her up and down with a critical eye.
“I highly doubt any other man ever took a second glance at you, you know.” 
She makes eye contact with him in the mirror for an instant, surprised by the statement, then quickly looks away again. He’s in another of his moods, clearly, and as usual, she’s the one he’ll take it out on. She just needs to remain quiet until he’s done. 
“Other than the unusual color of your hair, you’ve hardly anything to offer. Your features are too boyish, your breasts are embarrassingly small -” Adelaide’s face heats rapidly, shocked that he’d bring up such a thing -“and the freckles…” He sighs heavily, as if the marks on her skin have personally offended him. 
“Be sure she’s wearing plenty of powder tonight, down to her neckline, as well,” he instructs the maid, who nods silently, focused on preparing the next petticoat and pretending she’s not listening to the rest of the conversation. “Just try to make sure she’s as presentable as possible. Everyone is already talking about why you’re not with child yet, I don’t need them talking about your looks, as well.”
Why would they? I’m already taken. By you. Clearly my looks weren’t that horrible when you asked my father to court me.
“You come from an admirable family, and your dowry was acceptable, but I hope you know that if I hadn’t taken you, you’d have ended up a spinster. You owe me for the pampered life of a married woman you’re now living.”
Ah, there ‘tis. This is about me owing him an heir, as usual.
He continues to stare at her for a long moment, displeasure creasing his features. Adelaide stands with her hands folded in front of her and prays he’ll leave. 
“Well, hurry up and finish getting ready, then.” Turning on his heel, he marches toward the door. Just before he exits, she hears him mutter, “If our son ends up with freckles…”
I hope you never have a son. I’d have rather ended up a spinster than to share a bed with you.
“Madame? Forgive me if this is too forward, but I’ve heard that some of the ladies will add, um…padding to their bodices. Would you like me to…?”
“No, thank you,” Adelaide answers coolly, then gives the maid a slight, forced smile in the mirror. “Powder me enough to appease him, but let’s not go too far in catering to his whims.”
The maid smiles back, ducking her head, though not before Adelaide sees the approval in her eyes. “Yes, madame.”

Katrina: "This cannot continue. Nikita is a young woman now, and she shouldn't be taught by a sim like that. None of the children are learning the right lessons! Donna may be content to ignore my concerns, but I am the matriarch of the Fusilli family. I do not have to get my daughter-in-law's approval to make the right choices for my grandchildren."

Katrina: "There you are! Tesoro, I need to ask a favor: Will you cook tonight? Something exotic or inspired! We need to impress our guest."

Katrina: "Yes, so long as you guarantee it will be delicious. I am counting on you to help me. I need this to go perfectly. This is for your niece and nephews."
Antoine: "I won't let you down, Mamma! I know just the dish!"

I would also argue that plurality can often be a coping mechanism for trauma, without necessarily following the pattern described in DID. It's fairly new that DID has even been described thoroughly. Until recently in most of the world, who uses ICD, there was a vague "other dissociative disorders -multiple personalities" which had zero description or clinical requirements. What's now diagnosed as DID, would for a long time get diagnosed as schizophrenia.
The diagnostic categories are always changing and it's ok to use them as a definition, but you can't use them as a Truth, in the sense that any one type of experience could only occur within The Disorder...
Yeah like while it isn't this bad today, in the past everything from being queer to "hysteria" to protesting slavery has been "mental illnesses" in the DSM and I wouldn't assume the ICD has a much better history. So like. It's kinda important that we keep questioning and editing that thing. Even as most of the more horrendous stuff has been cut through the years, the DSM (and also the ICD) is still a work in progress, not The Final Truth. It's definitely not apolitical and inherently above criticism

Thinking about how badly the female characters were treated in the dsmp fandom still makes me angry like c!Niki and c!Puffy and c!Hannah were all different and cool and had so much awesome lore but they’re reduced to either “mom/maid”, “evil bitch”, or “emotionless #girlboss” like i am not even a main to any of them and I can recognise how dirty they were done. Obviously this isn’t all the female characters but they’re definitely the ones I’ve seen this sexist framework applied to the most personally

Yes, yes, you’ve reblogged that “the men are innocent, too” post, but are you:
- engaging with Palestinian men’s recent musings on manhood
- able to name more than one voice from Palestine—male or otherwise
- aware that they might be gravely insulted at the implication that their women and children are getting “too much attention/sympathy”
- sure you’re not just using Palestinian men—men who are experiencing genocide at the hands of colonial powers—as a proxy for your white, imperial-core, MRA-induced oppression fantasies
