I wonder who did it

I ain't gonna wade into the discourse waters, but I need to tell y'all that queer solidarity is a survival mechanism. I need y'all to know this because I want us all to make it. Don't isolate yourself from other queer folks, don't trust anyone who says other queers are "worse than conservatives" (actual post I saw earlier), and don't waste your energy on the Discourse™, because we only made it this far by banding together and trusting each other. Our struggles overlap and so does our movement.

Why I so heavily stress understanding reactionary groups is that most of the time, the person has a "good" reason for their bigotry, and ultimately that doesn't *matter.* By this I mean that nobody goes down this path who has a healthy relationship to community and to themselves. They are often victimized, sometimes disenfranchised, repressed, belittled, and in really extreme cases the subject of utter atrocity.

By framing these people as sinister mustache twirlers exclusively, who lean into bigotry for "no good reason" you both fail to understand what drives more people to their cause, and eventually you WILL find a type of suffering that gives you leniency in allowing their bigotry.

The stupid hypothetical about whether the terminally ill child can use their make-a-wish to say the N word is such a good example of this because a frustrating amount of people either entertain it OR start to water down their feelings about the word, where when stacked against death the go "does it really matter?" What this demonstrates is that for many people, there IS a threshold of a person's suffering that makes you find them "allowed" to also cause suffering.

It's how zionism gets discussed constantly. It's how trans infighting gets discussed. It's how people sit dumbfounded that immigrants vote for Trump, that Black men will join nazi orgs, that self-described feminists will invite deeply misogynistic men into their anti-trans circles.

By thinking that none of the bigoted groups you find easy to condemn have "reasons" for acting as they do, it becomes so easy to eventually see someone as reasonable when their logic hits home for you. But the two essential truths are that 1. behind most bigoted actions is legitimate pain, and 2. that's never ever enough.

The incel was bullied to isolation. The misogynist was abused by his mom. The transphobe has experienced sexual assault. The exorsexist had a vile ex-partner. The racist survived extreme poverty.

It all MATTERS to understanding what radicalized someone, but it doesn't MATTER in a way that excuses their actions.

"We have to ignore abuse allegations because the abuser was abused before" "So and so was hurt by someone in X group which means they can now say slurs against that group" "Antisemitism exists which means Islamophobia is allowed" "I can't be a perpetrator of x because I have been a victim of it"

If you sort bigotry into "justified" vs "unjustified" you will always find something you think is excusable. It is ALL unjustified because NOTHING makes it a valid form of action. The end!

We can hold sympathy, we can understand what it now takes to help someone unlearn, we can make room for amends and forgiveness and whatever else but even at the most gracious and patient intersection the actions are not "justified."

It is very very important to go "oh. this is WHY you've done this" but we cannot come to the conclusion that that makes it okay.

A Book of Creatures by @a-book-of-creatures doesn't update these days but is another thing along these lines, really huge, fully illustrated all by the author and cites all sources

this website is so funny because every couple years we repeat the discourse of "which marginalised group is it morally okay for us to shit on?" and somehow nobody ever learns from it. we just look back and go, "hey, remember that time when everyone was joking about how ace people should all be put in meat grinders? that was so messed up. we should not have done that. anyway, here's my topical joke about how polyamorous people should all be put in meat grinders."

[beaft]

this post is still getting me anon hate pretty much on the daily btw. in case you were curious about the state of things

[redstonedust]

"i know this show was made for children but i enjoy it too." > awesome and cool. watch whatever you want forever.

"i know it LOOKS like it was made for children but its SECRETLY for us. calling it a kids show is an insult cause kids could never understand these THEMES and EMOTIONS. we're the TRUE fans." > i dont think i trust your opinions. you seem lame as fuck.

[houndmother]

many of you just. genuinely don’t believe that people can grow and change.

[houndmother]

this is about the death penalty and its also about call out posts about people who have already apologized for things they did a long time ago and it’s also about using ‘toxic’ or ‘abuser’ as if its an immutable class of person, and its also about any other circumstance with permanent consequences or wherein you assume someone is still the same person they were.

It's called the Global Justice Report, it is here. This is an actionable plan which can be sent to legislators and demanded of political parties. We could save the world within our lifetimes.

It has always been possible. It is still possible.

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

see i think when a Final Girl kills a Slasher she should automatically inherit his mantle

[calechipconecrimes]

the sequel should reveal that the previous movie's Final Girl is the sequel's Slasher. like a curse

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

wait. make it a metaphor extended allegory for transitioning

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

going from being seen as the all american teen to being viewed as something violent and dangerous and not quite human. your very existence a threat to civilized society. the only acceptable outcome your death or imprisonment. treated like you murdered someone (the version of you that existed in other people's minds) by giving into your monstrous nature (trans). maybe do a Carrie with it and kill the transphobic bullying classmates

[the-punforgiven]

I'm just saying, if you're going to worldbuild magic being a "raw, primal force, akin to and interweaving with nature itself" you gotta explain to me why animals don't use it

[the-punforgiven]

I know the normal answer is "they just aren't smart enough for it" but idk I've seen enough media where a character uses a spell in a moment of brain-off panic ilI feel like animals could probably stumble into a spell or two like, accidentally

[the-punforgiven]

Also how funny would it be to see a completely normal regular bear cast magic missile outta nowhere

[the-punforgiven]

Also there is no way ravens wouldn't figure out spells, tbh

They're smart fuckin birds, I believe in them

Either through observing or just figuring shit out ravens could 100% learn how to cast spells I'm sure of it

[the-punforgiven]

Dogs can also cast Magic Missile but every time they do the projectile is shaped like a bone or a stick and they chase after it

[prokopetz]

Fantasy setting where every species of animal has One Fucked Up Trick exactly like in medieval bestiaries (e.g., panthers hypnotising their prey with sweet breath, pelicans reviving the dead with their willingly shed blood, etc.), except these are actually learned magic spells passed down from parent to offspring, so different populations of the same animal in different regions might have a different spell.

(If a species is domesticated you can teach it any spell you want, as long as you start 'em young enough; every breed of dog has a different "standard" spell, and knowing the "wrong" one is considered both a grave departure from breed standards and a potential violation of animal husbandry ethics.)

Please remember that almost everyone around you is traumatized. I didn’t understand this when I was younger. I wondered why people acted so strangely and irrationally. Maybe all children wonder this. The author Robert Anton Wilson said (paraphrasing), “We have never seen a completely sane adult human.” No one makes it out of this life alive. It’s not their fault. Mercy, kindness, forgiving — these are what makes one human. They are other names for love. People break in the strangest of ways.

[bitcoitus]

“Under the present brutal and primitive conditions on this planet, every person you meet should be regarded as one of the walking wounded. we have never seen a man or woman not slightly deranged by either anxiety or grief. we have never seen a totally sane human being." — Robert Anton Wilson
