Quick /unjoke, person actually running the blog here.
The reason why I call attention to replace the word transfem with an ethnic minority (one I am a part of and have direct experience with) is to showcase how classic this form of āsex crime compilationā bigotry is and hold a mirror to the faces of anyone who may happen upon or feel some pulls of agreement toward @transmascvoicesproject.
Itās absolutely fucking infuriating to see transfems put in the same jacket other minorities have been put into for years and years. And it is equally concerning to see how many people pick up their stick and follow.
Itās an old and tired playbook, but one that works very well with grooming people into hate. If you come from a stance of, ālook, Iām protecting the vulnerable, see? Donāt you want to protect survivors? What does that say about you if you silence them? Silence us? Silence our children?ā You can effectively manipulate people into sympathy for something that is at its core, actually and truly vile.
The steps are simple: ālook at the victim⦠now look at the perpetrator.ā And before you know it, Steven Miller is holding photographs of unnamed Hispanic people to a crowd shouting jeers about how we need to protect our children from these rapists.
If you are a transfem and reading this, know you are stood with in a place of solidarity. This is not and never will be your fault.
Conservatives love doing this. And unfortunately, transmascvoicesproject is doing this too. Whether this is coming from a place of pain or a place of ignorance (or a place of disgust or disdain) does not matter. I am concerned for the transfems affected. I am concerned for the transmascs who look and sympathize, send their trauma in to be consumed and regurgitated into propaganda just for a chance to feel heard, and walk down the path of conservatism that is offered with a pretty queer bow.
Itās tired. Itās classic. And worst of all, itās incredibly effective. Fix your heart and reject it.
