honestly i completely understand why jk rowling has become such a huge troll when her original posts were so polite and respectful. i have definitely lost 99% of my remaining empathy for the trans community since creating this blog because of the things i've read and how horrendous the harrassment has been.
cause here's the thing: you start out on radblr with the purpose of sharing your views and being a voice of reason. you hold a position of empathy, and you prioritize civility and education while engaging in arguments. you bring in face-based evidence, scientific sources, and statistics to explain your viewpoints.
in response, anonymous users in your inbox tell you to kill yourself. blogs sharing fantasies about raping terfs leave violent descriptions on how they want to kill you under your posts. you discover the "terfbreaking" tag which leads you down a rabbithole of depravity targeting women.
you aren't exactly shocked, but you had no idea things were this bad. nobody told you that radfems were bombarded with such explicit rape and death threats, though you always had issues with how violent the trans community was toward women. this solidifies your choice to leave trans ideology for good.
still, you hold out hope that this reaction is from a small minority. maybe that's why there was never awareness made against it.
you were wrong. every post you make leads to more abuse against you. the radfem tag is filled with pro-rape posts and baseless accusations. you're called a nazi and a fascist and a pedophile on a daily basis for recognizing female oppression.
between two posts discussing afghanistan's legalization of male violence against their wives, there's a news article about a transwoman being arrested on charges of child rape. under your newest post about male-pattern violence, a user wants to remind you that transwomen are actually the most oppressed group of people on earth. female oppression does not exist. acknowledging male socialization is a terf dogwhistle.
in a few scrolls, you land on a post shared by your mutual that features multiple screenshots from a blog with "TMA" in the description about wanting to rape their little sister with their girlcock. each post has hundreds of notes.
when you refresh your notifications, you're bombarded with spambots calling you a pedophile and threatening to rape and murder you.
you close out your browser. you think you're going insane.
