leftists: we should accept everyone regardless of religion, sexuality, race, ethnicity, or gender identity and fight for equal rights for all!

The thing is nobody at pride is evaluating you to determine if you’re queer enough to be there because they’re too busy thinking “it’s so hot out” and “why is this lemonade 12 dollars?”

[aweekerfuffle]

You're a doctor. You've been taught the phrase "first, do no harm."

A patient comes in with a flesh eating bacteria that is rapidly spreading up their leg. The only way to save their life is to remove their leg.

So what do you do? To help the patient is to accept that you must also harm them.

You're a good doctor. Of course you remove the leg and save the patient's life, because trying to exercise a choice that will result in no harm is impossible where there are only two bad outcomes, but one is unquestionably worse.

This post is for for leftists in the US who still think either not voting or going with a protest vote in the next two major election cycles is an acceptable choice, when you know full well the Republican will cause more harm.

How did a radical leftist and unapologetic fascist get over their differences and become friends? The story of their shared antisemitism will warm your heart…

What’s even funnier is that a search of the word israel on op’s profile brings up…

That they call all israelis colonizers.

I don’t fucking trust yall

[jantesika]

the irony is palpable.

I wonder if OP knows that they’re exactly the antisemite they’re talking about here or…

Call me crazy but I do think that trying to apply a cisgender based framework of gendered oppression onto intercommunity trans dynamics — in any capacity — will always have one major, glaringly obvious point of failure, which is:

NONE of us are fucking cisgender and the gendered privileges afforded by cisgender society are never genuinely or fully afforded to ANY of us.

[ftmtftm]

What does this mean?

It means that trying to assign any kind of "male privilege" to ANY category of trans people will never truly be fruitful, because the concept of "male privilege" was created by cisgender women to discuss cisgender men under cisgender gender dynamics without the experiences of transgender people in mind.

I think we can all agree that transgender women, transgender men, and nonbinary people are NOT cisgender men.

Even when we are discussing trans people who are externally perceived as / assumed to be cisgender men within society because they are stealth, closeted, or non-cis passing — those trans people are experiencing something conditional that can be stripped from them the moment anyone in a position to harm them finds out they are trans.

I think we can all agree that being misgendered and/or having to hide a part of yourself so you do not get hate crimed and/or lose employment or benefits or housing, etc. is NOT an exercising of privilege.

Even when we are discussing misogyny, an important and longstanding part of feminist discussion on misogyny is the fact that everyone is capable of being misogynistic. Misogyny is not stored in the assigned sex or gender identity. We all live in a patriarchal society, NO ONE is immune from internalizing misogynistic, patriarchal worldviews and acting upon them.

I think we can all agree that there is no transgender person who is incapable of being misogynistic, because there is no person in general who is incapable of being misogynistic.

To act as though privilege and bigotry are stored in a sex assignment or gender identity is to be gender/sex essentialist.

To try to apply that essentialism through a feminist lense IS radical feminist and there IS better feminism than that out there.

CeCe Rogers on Facebook writes: "Two Black Tennessee lawmakers were physically escorted out of chambers this week while Republicans quietly held a hearing to approve gerrymandered maps that would eliminate the state's only majority-Black congressional district.

No referendum. No special election. No public vote.

Because they know what happens when voters actually get a say — just look at Virginia, where the people spoke so loudly that Republicans had to drag the courts in to override them.

This isn't new. During Reconstruction, Black Americans held more congressional seats than at any point in the prior 90 years of American history. And white supremacists spent the next several decades tearing that down, through gerrymandering, poll taxes, and voter intimidation.

150 years later, the same tools. Different suits.

The audacity of escorting Black lawmakers out of their own chambers while dismantling Black political representation, and then telling us the courts aren't political, is breathtaking. These are the same courts they're counting on to make it stick.

This is a coordinated, multi-front assault on Black Americans. And we need to say it exactly that plainly."

I could go fully into explaining how the "it was promised to them 3,000 years ago" jokes fundamentally are based on a misunderstanding of the Torah because the "joke" would not work otherwise.

However at the end of the day its just calling jews greedy. Like people whip it out about everything and anything that it literally is just the socially acceptable way to call jews greedy. Ya know, a stereotype shoved on us for decades.

At least come up with something original instead of reheating the same nachos that nazi Germany reheated.

[xclowniex2]

Don't worry. I only made the connection myself today right before I made the post.

I was thinking about it because I made the joke in the same way jews joke about like space lazers and stuff, mocking people who actually use that joke. And that made me think of like, how it doesn't work with how jews understand that part of the Torah. And how its a Christian misunderstanding. And I was thinking of the differences between the two and how jews view it as custodianship. We were tasks with taking care of the land, like a chore almost to keep it brief. And the "joke" understanding painted it like we wanted everything, land, food, culture, etc. Painted it like we were... greedy. And that's when it clicked.

Luke’s face is what makes this.

[ghost-eses]

this is the funniest thing ever because every 6 weeks the trans internet circulates a photo of a 15~ year old trans boy wearing any even slightly alt fashion and mocks them relentlessly.

and then they get mad at us for not using our privilege to break down barriers of what a man should/can look like whenever they catch a guy who looks like a normie cis man

[jewishgay4il]

I love how pro-Palestinian activists have to tread on eggshells to make sure nothing they can say can possibly be construed as anti-Jewish or reference any of the historical anti-Jewish tropes accidentally, they have to make it clear time and again that their issue is with Zionism and not the Jewish people, and they'll still get accused of anti-Semitism anyway.

Meanwhile Zionists can just go "I mean, Jewish people are just better than Arabs, you know? All they know how to do is destroy instead of build, and the only reason people support them is because all of the Arabs in our country are part of a Middle Eastern conspiracy that pays and controls them."

I too think "treading on eggshells" just to threaten to murder half of the global Jewish population is a bit much, they could just be honest and save everyone the time.

And I have a few ENTs to recommend, clearly you struggle with hearing lmao

[nonbinaryjudean]

the walking on eggshells in question:

[ido100]

They never walked on eggshells, more like stomped the eggs and were surprised (((They))) were upset about it.

[indecisiveavocado]

so just so we're clear this is walking on eggshells?

Happy Pride‼️

[strangesmallbard]

a fascinating number of people have really found themselves agreeing w/ nazi rhetoric on israel & zionism and said “maybe the nazis have a point after all!” instead of “Wait Fuck”

[strangesmallbard]

“even david duke the nazi agrees with us about israel!” okay now try thinking with your brain

[homunculus-argument]

Fun fact: if someone tells you that they've got misophonia and that they can't stand a specific sound, and you start making that sound on purpose and won't stop doing it before they forcibly physically stop you from doing it, you were the one who escalated the situation to violence.

Celebrity or Influencer with a mostly Leftist Zoomer fanbase: "I feel really sorry for the people in Gaza. I won't talk about and condemn the extreme rise in antisemitism on the Left, I won't condemn antisemitism unless it comes from White Conservatives, I won't condemn the October 7th attacks that started this war, and I won't talk about any injustices being done to people in other countries, but... I feel so bad for the people in Gaza. Oh, and Israel bad!"

Having electricity in my home is so great. Most of the humans that have ever lived didn't have this.

I can be like "I want a cup of hot tea" and I can go and make one and I don't have to light a fire or anything.
