AY YO HOLD UP WHAT THIS LOOKS COOL AS SHIT
βwe all agreed rape jokes are badβ was about lazy men using rape as a shocking punchline to dehumanize women in like tweets and standup routines
donβt use that same maxim to run around demanding survivors of abuse discuss what happened to them only in somber, sad reverence.
dammit, I was really trying not to jump to thinking that's the vibe it was giving me...
everything is christianity with the serial numbers filed off these days
truly.
shit, people are being weird to you again aren't they >.>... (also christianity with the serial number filed off goes hard)
lol think steam store crashed
oh I was planning on getting things done today
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
yuri about a knight and a witch. the knight keeps running over to slay her but she loses every time & the witch just gives her a hug and a kiss on the forehead to heal her up and encourages her to try again tomorrow b/c she's kind of lonely. the knight assumes this is mockery & swears revenge
Yeah. same :/
Smear campaigns in Reddit comments have become a fixture of celebrity legal dramas, but they aren't just affecting public figures. For @spitfirenews.com, I investigated anonymous online attacks against a woman who reported a music professor for sexual harassment.

I saw you in there doing a lot of work for others... sorry its turned out so shit. Hope you have some space to take care of yourself today/whenever cause this has all been entirely too exhausting and infuriating.
oh so sorry, white** trans women, my bad. wouldn't want to forget to misuse intersectionality here that'd just be embarrassing......
Yes, the counterpoint to "...her experience of racism and other marginalization is ignored" is "I'm being generous so I'll say she didn't deserve harassment and also i uniquely understand what it's like to see the impact of certain posts being circulated unlike the trans women in this conversation"
I'm glad she's at least boosting this when really no one else has, but she also very noticeably removed any of the continued discussions and criticism that pointed out that she's not acknowledging transmisogyny as a whole.
I had not known this and then very much learned this by watching that thread before she completely gutted any criticism against her in it...
If you want to make the philosophical argument that the soldier pulling the trigger for imperialist masters and the ones he aims his gun at are both victims of a violent system, you better actually acknowledge who is harmed first and who is harmed more in that exchange or you're just doing apologia.

And even if there's racism involved in this current discourse -- which I don't there is -- only one side of this is being actively denied, ignored, and being subject to direct harm/exclusion.
what's additionally infuriating is this makes it harder to identify racism exhibited by white trans women. It's clearly really important we address racism I/other white trans women exhibit, *and also* this is all obfuscating racism while ignoring and outright denying transmisogyny as a whole.
you see it's just the tranny that's the acceptable target of being one of those crazy Bad Ones. Also, while we're at it, there is only the white tranny and race couldn't possibly intersect here.
oh perfect, its here thank youuu xD bsky.app/profile/skye...
(Realizing that was an easily lost reference to make when the context has quite literally been deleted but im still hung up on him thinking 30-40% of blocks being trans people not being alarming)
yeah you really did make a reasonable point as did the majority of the posts I saw criticizing him. Though idk maybe it was "only 30-40%" and not a majority or whatever lol.
anyway since KC SAYS ABOLISH ICE decided someone who was criticizing him was worth blocking, a Black trans woman trying to leave fucking KANSAS has had her momentum completely stalled.
this is what happens when you try to use identity politics as an excuse to be a shitty human being. please share.
Omg I saw the before and after on that thread and he gutted it with blocks and deletes. Pretty much every one pointing out the inconsistencies (so you know, the trans women that responded) has been removed from the thread.
