It's your friendly neighborhood traumagenic system! if ur endo/quoi/neurogenic i love you and ur valid. They/them pronouns unless otherwise specified please!
tbh i think y’all (mostly cis and binary trans) are just. devoted to misunderstanding, suppressing and bullying nonbinary ppl.
y’all tried to obliterate “joyfriend” y’all tried to spread shit about “enby” being unilaterally infantalizing, you’re coming after “folx” (which isn’t even necessarily a nonbinary thing) and “mx” and making jokes about it and creating this “yxll” meme. y’all try to shuffle us into neat little boxes, push labels and attraction categories on us, exclude us from communities we belong in (LOOKING AT YOU, EXORSEXIST MLM BLOGS), create an innaccurate, fatphobic, racist, exorsexist image for nonbinary people to “conform to” you refuse to respect our pronouns and our experiences with gender, you refuse to look past your basic, exorsexist view of the world, you try to exclude us from trans spaces, we face endless scrutiny.
none of you actually care about nonbinary people and it fucking shows
binary people can rb but don’t add any bullshit or fucking else. i encourage ppl to reblog this post
(edit 9/22: added “unilaterally” for more clarity. please reblog this version!)
I’m going to burn down the times Scotland’s office
A full page ad of terf dog whistle, also terfs claim that they are the persecuted minority but you don’t see trans people buying full page adverts in major newspapers to attack them, how much did that page cost?
Wow this attracted a whole block list of terfs saying this isn’t a dog whistle, it is, and 1 even calling the fucking times a small local newspaper anyway that advert cost a minimum of £16,645
- when the person kidnapped by the villain is all ‘no one’s going to come for me’ and
- someone does, but it’s the person they’d least expect
- EVERYONE COMES because wow, maybe I am depressed because I didn’t think I knew this many people, much less that they liked me
- no one comes and the villain gets pissed on their captive’s behalf and treats them better than their former associates did
- they rescue themselves and everyone’s so impressed but the person yells because I AM CAPABLE AND YOU SHOULD HAVE AT LEAST NOTICED I’D BEEN KIDNAPPED
- they get rescued by a deus ex machina, preferably their dad/mom/grandma/old associate who is exponentially cooler than the heroes
basically, I like it when people get rescued and get validation
Can I add: people getting rescued by their pets.
I also really love when a person gets kidnapped and is utterly unsfraid because they know that a specific person is coming for them and oh boy did that villain make a mistake kidnapping them.
Remix version: they think no one is coming for them and so escape themselves BUT as soon as they breach the perimeter all their associates are standing outside literally just about to break in and rescue them
Alternatively: they meet each other halfway through the victim trying to break out and the associates trying to break in
Last one’s definitely my favorite.
I had a criminal minds story that started very similar to the last one
I feel like terfs are such an obvious and clear example of how dangerous upholding only a single aspect of identity as being the Most Oppressed can be. They’ll fight for the prison system, at the expense of the black people who are the most OVERWHELMINGLY high demographic incarcerated. (Often falsely at that.), because their fear and hatred of men extends to bipoc men.
(Also, claiming that fear of rape is the only reason people would be against prisons is… insane. )
What’s so asinine is they keep yelling about “reform,” like what reform exactly? If abolitionism can be completely dismissed because “what about the X” then why on earth should we entertain any blathering about “reforming” a foundationally rotted system that doesn’t exhaustively have answers to every question too? Like how do you plan to “reform” Rikers? Solitary confinement? Cops and their unions?
It’s so disingenuous lmao, especially to pretend you care about “reform” while championing prison rape as some kind of “positive” threat.
this article is about another carceral feminist canard (the “but what about survivors who need to be protected from rape?” one) but this passage is still relevant
Black men, for example, are by far the most incarcerated population in the United States and are the most frequent victims of police violence, so when you use the language of feminism to justify the existence of the police, you’re using it to justify the oppression of Black men. This is nothing new: The practice of using unfounded sexual violence allegations to further oppress Black men is a particularly time-honored white feminist tradition. Take the famous case of Emmett Till, who was murdered by two white men after being falsely accused of harassment by a white woman in 1955. The recently viral case of Amy Cooper, a white woman, is another example: The otherwise liberal Pete Buttigieg supporter claimed she called the police on Christian Cooper, a Black man—a verifiable death sentence in today’s America—because she feared he would assault her.
After Cooper’s video went viral, some rushed to her defense with the same faux-feminist argument: “A number of people have pointed out that a woman alone with a man in an isolated area was likely to perceive the remark as threatening,” read one think piece. While these circumstances are all different, their ethos is the same: They all commodify and whitewash the women’s rights movement to protect an institution that has done nothing but harm to vulnerable women, especially Black women and women of color, since its conception. Feminism has become a weapon by which the privileged can defend themselves from any and all accountability while steadfastly ignoring the very populations that intersectional feminism is meant to serve. It has become a get-out-of-jail-free-card by which white women can shirk all responsibility for upholding white supremacy. The police are not a feminist institution—they’re both the footsoldiers and the benefactors of racism, sexism, misogynoir, colonialism, and violence. I don’t know about you, but I’d rather my feminism stood for something different.
in addition to the absurdity and racism that have already been pointed out, i need to add that women’s prisons exist, and are basically institutional rape.
I also feel like there’s an implication that men deserve to get raped? Which is horrid
