anyway i've gotten like 50+ new followers in the past few days, and i never do this, but a basic bullet points of info that might be relevant
trans women are women. trans men are men. nonbinary people are nonbinary (yes, that's a real thing. no i do not need to interrogate anyone for their gender)
no you will not convince me otherwise, please kindly fuck off if that's why you're following me
material reality impacts our existence and it's stupid to pretend otherwise
as longtime followers can avow, i have actually not really drastically changed my feminist stances since probably like idk 2010 or whatever, and, in fact, i have mellowed a lot on how much i hate men as a class! i'm actually influenced by major feminist writers! i read a lot!
if you think you know more about lgbt history and culture than me and you do not have a PhD in the subject, you are almost definitely wrong, but thanks for playing <3
this is not like a "politics" blog or a "feminist" blog or an "lgbt" blog it's just like. the ever-changing cycle of my adhd brain. please do not be surprised when i launch full tilt back into like succession or mad men posting. because i will eventually.
abortion rights are women's rights and women's rights are human rights - but also abortion and transition both go hand in hand in terms of bodily autonomy (and neither are comparable to whatever antivaxxers are saying fuck off)
i literally wrote a 20 page paper in german on comparative legal rights of women through a feminist lens between east and west germany from 1949-90, and that was like, 2016 I think, so none of this is new. I also gave 20 minute talks on Clara Zetkin and Bertha Pappenheim, again, in German, for fun :)
i've had to delete about a half dozen TERF anons in the past 48 hours can y'all get a fucking life please? some of y'all insist you're married, so like, go fuck your wives or something idk.
also if you think I'm a TERF you might just be stupid. (i am not a TERF. I have never been a TERF. I have no interest in listening to or humoring TERFs)
trust me, as someone who has blocked about a hundred in the past week, they are very blatant about it, and don't pretend to support trans rights. their foremost belief is transmisogyny, not the need for women as a whole to form class consciousness to fight patriarchal oppression. if you don't know that, like, i'm glad you've never had to interact with a TERF?
i do not research the OP or anyone on a post I reblog. sometimes i reblog it because it's funny. sometimes i reblog it because it's pretty. you are not entitled to know why I reblog anything I reblog, nor am I ever going to research OPs of posts because I have a life.
shinigamieyes is a shitty extension and any freeware used to mark Bad People is going to be coopted by bad faith actors. block lists have the same issue.
critical thinking is free.
