Ive seen to many people reblog from people like @cyberpunkpavlichenko which, well. She's pretty mask off about it. Maybe we don't need to listen to people that are violently transmisogynistic? Let's make that our resolution for this year, not platforming the views of violently transmisogynist harassers.

Like, tumblr will literally suggest you leftwingwatch, a blog created to harass trans women. Maybe we can do better. Maybe the people that refuse to do better, that don't try to do better, are fine with transmisogyny. Maybe we shouldn't accept that.

[missstrogen]

Like, there are people on this site that will gleefuly side with these transmisogynistic harassers, platform them, and "strangely" refuse to platform any trans woman that doesn't make her entire platform "being one of the good ones" through kiwifarms shit. Let's stop excusing that behaviour.

[missstrogen]

If someone goes fearmongering about the "transfem pedophiles in our community" that is a transmisogynist. That is just straight up transmisogyny, uncontroversially.

a child can 100% be trans, but there's no such thing as a cis child under ~10 and i believe this unironically

[tboy-trash]

trans child: awesome. they have questioned the sexgender system and rejected the class forced upon them. they know their shit.

cis child: i mean they're too young to know for sure. how do we know it's not peer pressure? :/

[tboy-trash]

children only start being cis once they ostracize their trans peers. which i guess in fairness can be younger than 10 in many instances. but point is that before that we just tell them they're cis and they have no frame of reference to really say anything about it (and if they do, they get abused)

the meaning of life? is to make your bedroom as comfy as possible. that's it that's the purpose

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

the secondary purpose is to equip your kitchen and get really really really into international cuisine

THE PURPOSE OF LIFE IS TO BE WELL-FED AND WELL-RESTED

oooh I get it it’s always gonna be because of the environment I grew up in

[aceofpans]

it’s because of the curse

Trans women are the same gender as cis women.

The amount of "allies" that get upset at that statement of fact is criminal.

additionally, trans women are the same sex as cis women

Sex as an “objective” and “scientific” means of categorizing people is misguided at best and an active tool of transphobia at worst. Saying that a trans woman is in a separate category from cis women just because she was CAMAB is twerf ideology in the dressings of science to make it sound objective and undeniable

[communistkenobi]

everyone rightfully complains about how the r word is back in vogue now but I think the people talking about how using ChatGPT makes you a small brained lazy degenerate are getting off way too easy

“hey don’t use eugenics language to describe a thing you don’t like”

the main programmer at Team Cherry (the Silksong and Hollow Knight people) transitioned!!! all good things are made by trans women!

YIPEEEEEEEEEEE

[missstrogen]

If you're a cis boy in 2026, I genuinely want you to ask yourself why. Why are you cisgender? Is this something you want to be, or something you feel you have to? This isn't a bit. I want you to think about that, about whether you're doing this because you genuinely want to or because you feel like you don't have a choice. And if you find it's the latter, I'm here for you.

1 in 5 people are probably plural

5 in 1 person is definitely plural

Well hot damn if it wasn't enough for this loser to throw a public tantrum now he's going out of his way to follow predestrogen on other platforms and start harassing her there!!! You can't hide these Matt I got the screenshots lol!!!!!!

HE'S BLATANTLY LYING OUT OF HIS ASS!! SPREAD IT AROUND!! And also since she seems to be from Ireland even though I don't even know shit about eu laws from what little I do know this is a big violation of GDPR and should be reported as such!! https://commission.europa.eu/law/law-topic/data-protection/reform/rights-citizens/redress/what-should-i-do-if-i-think-my-personal-data-protection-rights-havent-been-respected_en

I genuinely hope this circulates forever.

While I experience transphobia and homophobia...I do not experience systemic oppression because I'm a man.

Transmisogyny is the intersection between transphobia and misogyny. There is no intersection between transphobia and misandry/androphobia because misandry and androphobia are not systemic problems.

We have unique problems that we deal with as trans men...and you know? I think we can just talk about those without blaming trans women or comparing those problems to what trans women experience.

[fucktoyfelix]

If I experience misogyny because I'm being misgendered that's transphobia. If I experience misogyny because I'm seen as an effeminate man that's homophobia. If someone doesn't want me around because they have trauma with men, that's totally understandable, have a nice day

[fucktoyfelix]

Anyone who remembers the "men's rights activist" movement of the 2010s and was actually dealing with the misogyny inherent to that movement, will warn you where this logic goes. Men are often oppressed, certainly, but never ever because we are men.

I love getting unaccompanied minors (kids flying alone) who so clearly just. Don't want to be here lol. Sometimes I get to know a little of their story, like their parents are divorced, or a family member died and they're heading to the funeral, but usually they just don't want to talk about it and that's fine. But I always treat the flight like it's a challenge to make them smile. I offer them snacks and soda but that's never enough, that's whatever, they could get those from an airport vending machine. Chump change. So then I tell the worst jokes. Just the most embarrassing, kindergarten teacher, annoying dad jokes you can think of. And those always get a groan, or a "Seriously??" And that's my in! Now I can say "Why, what's your idea of a good joke? No, come on hotshot, make your best joke, let's see it." And they hem and they haw but of course they eventually tell me their very best joke because kids are little competitive comedy goldmines. And it's always super funny, so I laugh, and that's where they slip up. Because you know what you almost always do when your joke successfully makes someone laugh? You smile. And I'm like. Gotcha. Rookie move. Now you're going to end up having a good time in spite of yourself. I win.

[filmnoirsbian]

Did this with an 11yo u.m. today and he said "What did the ghost say to the other ghost?" And I said "What?" "Nothing. Ghosts aren't real."

[filmnoirsbian]

I'm literally a flight attendant, offering snacks and drinks is my job

Fun how the bystander effect was coined to cover up how cops are bigoted cowards who let a queer person die and stockholm syndrome was coined to cover that the cops handled a hostage situation so badly the hostages trusted their captors more than the cops.

Westerners of color who get mad about global southerners pointing out that they benefit from imperialism are the sibling group of white people who hear "you have white privilege" and go "b-but I'm gay and trans and disabled and poor and did I mention I'm gay, where's my white privilege HUH"

[morganitism]

"I have a hard time getting food and water and experiencing racism on a daily basis" Fascinating. I wonder what other groups of people may also have a hard time getting food and water while experiencing racism on a daily basis. While also getting murdered, raped, and enslaved by the forces of western imperialist countries. At a disproportionately higher rate than anywhere in the west and with far less coverage from any media, and far less outrage from anyone

[morganitism]

The device that you're using to claim that you don't benefit from imperialism contains cobalt that was mined by children in the Congo who do not have access to those same devices.

[yumefilly]

do they not understand what the military does?

[morganitism]

They lose their shit if you mention that their militaries are not white only

[morganitism]

I'm actually not done talking about this because once again racialized westerners are pissing me off. Stop acting like you haven't bullied hundreds of foreigners off this platform for pointing out your privilege or talking about western imperialism in general. You are a westerner before you are racialized and I'm tired of you all acting like third worlders (99% of the time racialized themselves) are being racist for saying that. I'm tired of people being quiet while third worlders get ran out of places that are often their ONLY support by fragile westerners who can't handle being told they're not the most oppressed ever.

Being a westerner before you are racialized doesn't mean that they don't see your skin color before anything else. That means that the place that you live in affords you more material protections, support, and benefits than you would be given outside of the imperial core. This is like basic intersectionality, something that you all seem to forget the moment third worlders point out imperialism. And yet when you point this out a huge portion of racialized westerners on here will start throwing tantrums and trying to bully third worlders off this platform. You are not immune to being a western chauvinist just because you're not white.

Check your fucking privilege.

There’s a pattern, a technique, a tool of oppression that is commonly found in oppressed groups, that one might call denial of interiority. This is because society at large assumes that People are White Men. It expresses itself in many ways but is in general seen as a minority’s actions not being afforded the kind of interiority that is to white men. It is easy to place oneself in the oppressor’s mind, to think what they might have thought when they acted, then, but to imagine what the oppressed might feel? Think? Never.

This goes hand in hand with denying epistemic authority, of course. It can be seen in things like “female hysteria”. The oppressed subject being upset, reacting, is not seen as a rational subject. They are seen as crazy, irrational, emotional.

I believe that many of us understand this. However, when this subject is applied to children (more broadly, any group they carry bias against), the same people that would agree with me would start justifying that denial. Saying that children are silly, that they do complain about meaningless things. That children are irrational, emotional.

We must not accept this. We must not accept the idea that when a child is upset, people should focus on getting rid of this annoyance, instead of understanding what that person is feeling, at that moment, and why they are feeling it. We must allow children to have interiorities, and this starts with you. It starts with you understanding the ways in which you see children.
