This blog operates as the Headquarters for what I personally refer to as the "Anti-Radqueer Informational Archival Project," shortened to ARQIVE (pronounced as 'archive'.)
MODERATORS.
The Archivist.
We are NOT actively looking for new moderators, and will not accept you if you ask. Those who are added to this blog are trusted friends of mine.
SUBMISSIONS / INBOX.
If you wish to submit content to be archived, please refer to the following Google Forms.
Callout posts will not be added to the Archive.
We don't care for any discourse unrelated to radqueers and will delete any asks pertaining to them. Trying to ask for The Archivist's opinions on non-radqueer related discourse will result in a block.
Feel free to tag us in posts you believe should be added to the Archive.
Update: (at least) two other moderators will be joining us on here! I'm even making cute replycons so you can differentiate between us. We've also updated our own introduction post, if you'd like to check that out. The goal is that this blog is up & running by my next school break!
Hello everyone! Apologies for the dip in activity; I have been extraordinarily busy as school has just started back up for me and our mental health is fluctuating (as we warned about). We're thinking of getting other moderators on here to help run the blog, so look out for that soon.

If you ask Rick Astley for a copy of the movie βUPβ, he cannot give you it as he can never give you up. But, by doing that, he is letting you down, and thus, is creating something known as the Astley Paradox.
What if I am not let down by the fact that Rick Astley is unable to provide me a copy of UP. Does the Astley Paradox persist in that scenario.

You, a random being on tumblr with no medical degree, cannot "coin" a fucking disorder, it takes actual medical professionals YEARS to even gather PROOF a disorder EXISTS yet you guys seem to think you can "coin" a disorder off a fucking random "quirky" habit or is something that is an already existing disorder but slightly To The Right.
You make a mockery of actual disorders when you "coin" shit like "uwu agefluidfluxflen whore mental attachment disorder" , it takes literal years for actual disorders to be researched, spotted, patterns realized, criteria found and to even be considered a real disorder.
Almost every "MUD" (medically unrecognized disorder) is an already existing disorder but with like, one or two changes.
Do not. Feel pressured. To become a radqueer because you have BIID.
No, just because you have a complicated dysphoria disorder does not mean you are inherently radqueer. That's not how it works. You are your own person and you don't need to put yourself through the mental stress and danger the radqueer community will put you through.
My blog, and many other non-radqueer blogs are open to you. You have people who love and respect your disorder, even if I can't personally understand it. Don't lump yourself in with assholes who wish they had cancer for the " aesthetic, " or wish they were nazis because they think its cool.
Hey, Iβm currently trying to leave the radqueer and transid communities. I keep wanting to go back, I keep wanting to be βthe really inclusive oneβ. I know my time there hurt me, but I still feel like somehow theyβre βnot that badβ Can you send me links to some of the worst transids you have found. I know they have coined some really bad things, but I kind of need to see it with my own eyes. Iβm messaging you because youβre the most well known anti-radqueer.
ive collected a bit most of these screenshots are from what we've collected for the carrd. anyone is free to add to this in the notes cus theres 100% more stuff we missed. also no spoons for ids cus theres just so many images
tw for: mentions of the r slur, antisemitism/nazis, lolishos, CSA, cults, RAMCOA, TERFs, Transphobia, racism, ableism. you get it.
these were like all the images i could fit on mobile
see also:
warning on kandiqueer(link) / Radqueer is a cult(link) / more shitty transids(links)
non links:
the existence and acceptance of pro c (not just for the "big 3" but for murder/assault paraphilias and ones that can put ones health at risk) , transharmful etc., kandiqueer and its variants, xenosatanists, loli/shotacon, csam, adults being intimate with minors/animals etc.
radqueers stealing terms or trying to claim terms are part of their shit (despite outcry from the communities surrounding said terms): transrace (adoptees), transabled/BIID, chronosian, aldernic, transgender, transpecies, etc.
the constant comparing of paraphilia, disability, race, age, etc. to gender and being trans/queer and the basically piggy backing off queer/disabled etc. communities
the large overlap of "youth liberation" and lolishos/pro cs
the sheer amount of "noone will accept you but us"
defending blackface, racefaking, disability faking, racist/ableist stereotypes, etc.
the constant harassment of not just anyone who doesn't like them but those who are in their community who question or criticise anything rq. and the harassment of ex radqueers, which goes from anonymous threats all the way to claiming their trauma from being rq isnt real.
the activity that goes on in the background outside tumblr (like discord) where alot of illegal material is being traded aswell as grooming and pressuring minors to send images of themselves, and very likely alot more im not remembering
aaaaaand if theres anymore ill add it later either by edit or by reblog. again. feel free to add anything in the notes cus it helps. especially image ids cus i can not do those rn or at all.
hey btw antis and radqueers considering becoming antis just wanna say. do not fall for radqueer lies. radqueers will not make you happy, traumatizing yourself by being in that community will not make you happy. especially if you're a minor. this will provide temporary happiness-- this will not fix you. you'll think you're happy for a little while but it will all come crashing down. i would know, i experienced that exact thing. if you're an anti considering becoming a radqueer, don't. you will end up with irreversible mental harm done to you. if you're a radqueer considering becoming an anti, i can't control what you do but please please please get out of there while you can. antis won't be mad at you for being an ex-radqueer, i'm an ex-radqueer too! all of us will just be happy that you're out of a very very dangerous environment.
i'm crosstagging this so any radqueers who are considering leaving can see it too. this is the only post of mine that radqueers can interact with. this is worded kind of weirdly and i apologize for that i feel weird and not good right now
Things that personally help me cope with atypical dysphoria:
Having an OC with the characteristics you desire. Just be careful that you don't become invested with this, which is why I would class them as an OC rather than a 'sona' or 'self insert'
Small things to help you connect with whatever your dysphoria is- Ie if I was a squirrel I may eat some nuts and berries- but again be careful that you don't get carried away especially if your dysphoria has the potential to be dangerous
Self care, giving yourself a practical day of relaxation can be really beneficial to yourself (make sure it's not just scrolling online though)
Listen to music, personally I'd stick with relaxing stuff but if the loud and heavy helps you then listen to it
Create art- however that looks to you, it can be 'bad' as well, just get your feelings out in a healthy way
Talk to someone that understands, although that may be hard/impossible atm
Stay away from rq spaces, they will try to convince you to join them but don't listen
Remember that other people feel this way, and it's not that uncommon irl (we've spoken fo several people about this and most of them related to differing degrees)
I know these aren't much but it's just some stuff that helps me personally, but if any of these are 'bad' please lmk.
Set time limits, if you're engaging with something that could trigger your dysphoria take breaks between engagement, even if it's just to go outside and relax for five minutes, it's better than triggering yourself and/or being stuck in that mindset.
Exercise and physical activity (ie going for a walk, cleaning the house, ect) are good for taking your mind off things.
In a similar vein, talk to a friend about anything but atypical dysphoria, it's a good way of 'changing the topic' so to speak.
Mindfulness can help some people, breathing exercises and grounding techniques could prove to be useful.
Orginize something! Probably the same as cleaning to some people, but taking down your books from a shelf and reordering them helps me (thank you autism)
If you notice radqueers trying to rebrand any term as a "radqueer term":
Do not give in. Ever. Dig your heels in as much as possible. Make a million posts about the real history behind terms if you have to. Do NOT let them steal your terms and change them to be radqueer!
If your identity has been stolen by radqueers, take it back! Make sure radqueers know that co-opting others' experiences to fuel a racist, ableist, transphobic community will NOT go unchallenged!
Transspecies folks, transracial adoptees, pwBIID who id as transabled, transgender ppl - I believe in all of you! We will not let radqueers steal our terms! Stand up against them and show them that, "trans"nazi or not, a nazi is still a nazi, and nazis are never tolerated in the queer community, nor are they allowed to take any of our terms.
Step-by-step: Let's report a radqueer for inciting violence
This is a tutorial on reporting. Don't find this user, don't contact them, don't harass them, etc - I am showing how you should report these posts instead. Content warnings: Radqueers, murder, torture
Here is our post in question:
"transtorturemurderer: a transharmful term for one who wishes to or identifies as having commited torture murder"
Archive the post.
Report the post to Tumblr.
Block the blog and everyone in the notes of the post.
Tutorial on each step is under the cut:
Archive The Post
When a radqueer advocates for violence, child abuse, animal abuse, abuse of a corpse or actual CSAM material, it's very important that you archive the post. Saving evidence of radqueers promoting harm is important, especially if this user later comes back after their account is removed.
(It is important to note that I am specifically saying "advocates for" as in in real life. If a radqueer coining post doesn't specify, it can be reported to Tumblr as IRL. I'm noting "IRL" here because so many people think that fictional child sexual abuse material (and similar things) are perfectly fine, although I would like to note that I do not support/endorse "fictional CSAM" and it is recognized as being equally harmful to IRL CSAM/CP by places like MissingKids.com (organizations dedicated to stopping child abuse). But I'm not dedicating this space to arguing about that - Do not derail this post by arguing with me about this. This is a tutorial for something specific.)
You have two main options for archiving:
Archive.Org
Archive.Today
I tend to use both archivers, but if you only want to use one I suggest Archive.Today. Open the main page and copy-paste the URL of the RQ post into the field. Press enter, and it will store an archived version of the post. (Sometimes this takes longer than other times, this is based on how many people are using the site at once.)
If you plan to do a lot of reporting, install the Firefox extensions for Archive.Today and Archive.Org, they let you archive your current page with one click.
If a page has been archived before, you get this message. If it looks like a post has been edited or there are new replies in the notes from radqueers encouraging it, I suggest archiving it again.
Now you've got your updated archived URL. Hold onto this URL.
Report Them To Tumblr
You'll need to view the post in dashboard view if they have a custom theme. Custom theme URLS go like blogname.tumblr.com, and dashboard view is tumblr.com/blogname/post122121212121212121.
Once in dashboard view, click the hamburger menu (the three dots), and you'll see the red option that says "Report blogname."
This takes you to a basic categories menu. Select "Report something else."
That takes you to a sub menu which lets you pick from the following options:
Copyright violation
Trademark violation
Harm to minors
Privacy violation
Impersonation or Non-Genuine Behavior
Suicide or self-harm concern
Hate speech violation
Suspected terrorism
Sexually explicit material
Gore, mutilation, or bestiality
Violent content or threat
Iβm being harassed
Unlawful uses or content
Spam
Election Integrity
I bolded the options which radqueer posts will most likely fall into. For the post I'm reporting, I am selecting "Violent content or threat."
You'll enter Tumblr's permalink (the post url), enter a name, your email, solve a captcha and most importantly describe how it violates Tumblr's Community Guidelines. Since I'm reporting this for violence, let's go right to the Community Guidelines on Tumblr:
What Tumblr is not for:
Violent Content and Threats, Gore and Mutilation. Don't post content which includes violent threats toward individuals or groups - this includes threats of theft, property damage, or financial harm. Don't post violent content or gore just to be shocking. Don't showcase the mutilation or torture of human beings, animals (including bestiality), or their remains. Don't post content that encourages or incites violence, or glorifies acts of violence or the perpetrators.
You can use the way a website's phrased their guidelines as a sort of base for writing your report. However, on Tumblr remember that it needs to be fairly short because there's a character limit. So, questions to answer:
Does this include violent threats towards a person or group? Is this a label/"pride flag" about committing violence against a person or group?
Does this encourage violence - is it telling people to commit acts of violence?
Is it glorifying acts of violence or their perpetrators?
In this example, this is a pride flag, which denotes pride, and it says "one who wishes to or identifies as having commited torture murder" That is reasonable enough cause to call this post glorifying violence. So, here's what I'm saying in my report: (Changed phrasing slightly from the screenshot above)
This user is posting "pride flags" for people who "identify as" and "wish to" into murderers and other violent perpetrators. In this post, they made a "transorturemurderer" pride flag, for people who wish to commit torture murder. This is very concerning, this blog seems to be completely serious. Please take this blog and other radqueer blogs down.
If a user has many posts right on their blog that violate the Community Guidelines, you can say something akin to "More examples: (Link)" and link to the archived post/s.
Once you're satisfied with your report, you can click submit and Tumblr will say "Got it" and let you know it was received.
Block the blog and everyone in the notes
If you still have the post open, quickly go through the notes and block everyone interacting positively. (Don't spend time looking at these blogs, it will likely be upsetting/disturbing)
Closing Notes
I could've phrased the part about removing other radqueer blogs better. My reason for adding that is that I want Tumblr to start becoming aware of what radqueers post. I believe firmly that once enough people report radqueers for their content, Tumblr might respond to future petitions or requests to ban all radqueer content.
Don't reply to radqueer posts. Don't reply to radqueer posts. This can be tempting, but I don't think it's a good idea. Even if you've got good intentions or make some great points, radqueers like to screenshot anti radqueer posts and post them as examples of "antis harassing them". Your post could even be shown to someone who is questioning being radqueer, grooming them into the community with a sort of "Look! See? All of those mean antis will never accept you, all they do is harass people for disagreements!" air.
I'm autistic and can't read tone well, and I also have OCD that makes me overexplain my intentions. If parts of this post were hard to read, please help me make them shorter.

hi, if youre considering leaving the rq community, I love you. if you have doubts about your own community that people within it refuses to adress or accept, I love you.
even if its just intrusive thoughts due to OCD, a community is not supposed to make you feel that way. back when I was active in the furry community I had horrible zoophilia OCD due to the amount of hate for them that was so loud and proud within the community, when I made the switch to the mogai community it got so much better, and it was the best my intrusive thoughts had been before I discovered the radqueer community. it helped so much I no longer have Z-OCD, though there are now other themes due to the rq community's influence that I will not talk about for my own safety.
intrusive thoughts come from a place of fear, I was terrified of being labeled a zoo or one of my mutuals turning out to be a zoo which is why I had developed OCD themes surrounding it. what helped me most was 1: getting less involved with the community that made me feel that way and 2: researching more about zoophilia, it's causes, experiences within it, etc. I learned that zoophilia is involuntary, often caused from trauma, and that zoophile did not mean pro-contact.
researching about it has been a proven way to help fears over and over again, and since intrusive thoughts are sourced from fears, that'd be a great way to help ease those (as per the recommendation of my therapist). so Id recommend making an alt account and just- getting involved with the anti rq community, preferably under an alias for your own safety. its alright if you end up not liking us, that is fair! this is mostly for you and to ease your mind and I will not get mad if you decide it isnt for you, nor do I think anyone else in the right mind will either. if you end up liking us more than radqueers, that is also fair! we are always, openly accepting of former radqueers and a lot of the experiences within the radqueer ideology, however bad or guilty your past may be.
a term to describe an involuntary disconnect one has have between their physical self and inner self, it is against transitioning if its unsafe or can harm other people. its symbol is π§ π«π«
this can be because of (but isnt limited to):
atypical dysphoria
delusions, psychosis
systemhood, headmates/facets differing from physical body
alterhumanity, nonhumanity
BIID, facticious disorders
there is no set flag template to encourage creativity, but there is community-made ones if you prefer them.
originally coined by acetrappolaswife, now deactivated. both flag and descriptions have been simplified with as much integrity to the original as possible.
this term is NOT rad//queer friendly and was made as a safer version of trans//ids for those who want to leave the community. it is, however, not exclusive to them. if youre a proud, active rad//queer and want to use this, you literally have your equivelant of the term, go away. shoo.
