Idk where people get the idea that ‘erasure’ is like, a preferable alternative to violence. Erasure is not the absence of violence, it is the systematic refusal to acknowledge violence. It’s watching a drowning man and refusing to help. It’s turning your back on the sick, the starving, and the imprisoned.
This website has multiple well-known posts about how medical misogyny means most people don’t know that women can have different heart attack symptoms than men. That is erasure, and it kills people.
