I don't believe "canary in the coal mine" is a good metaphor for liberatory politics

[fus-mar-hoz]

the retrocession or worsening of social conditions is never a straight line and it would be reductive to position any one particular group or issue to be the "first one to fall". the attacks on entire social groups are never single strikes either, quantitative into qualitative etc. you need to look at trends, conditions, internal movements, not a kind of lighthouse that can cut through the idealist fog of taking the whole to be the mere sum of its parts

westerners: it's very clear that in the japanese culture this does not have a romantic context and so the intended audience wouldn't take is as such, it's really just westerners lacking the knowledge of the nuances of the language and applying their own biased views on a scene that is inherently platonic [+5 paragraphs of text]

meanwhile, japanese fans:

trans guy say this and then don't understand how they benefit from misogyny

waow..

[tboy-trash]

please someone tell me how this is any different from cis transphobes going "you're so heckin valid (even though you're not a Real man/woman)"

[tboy-trash]

i think telling trans men they're not men in a way that counts is heinously transphobic actually. all these people are obviously transmisogynists as well but atp i'm marking them red for their good old fashioned transphobia too

[tboy-trash]

i've fought cis people who were dear to me for saying shit like this, why should i tolerate it from shitty dudes who, adding insult to injury, aren't just saying it because they're parroting the transphobic background noise of the world rn but to actively deny they benefit from transmisogyny??? fuck all the way off. i'm so tired of people on my asks telling me i should give more grace to ""my community"". these people are not my community and if i could i'd spit on every one of their faces until i died from dehydration

[tboy-trash]

lol can you tell i had a bad day at work

[angelicguy]

my toddler is 3 years old and wont eat anything other than fine porterhouse steaks and sweet port wine

[milk5]

you need to discipline your child. port is a horrible choice for the main course and wildly clashes with a rich béarnaise.

[angelicguy]

dude hes three….

[bumblr-dotcom]

And uncultured. Get a new child

[tgirlmaomao]

its nice that we as a community are getting to the point where 'let the plushies watch' is a commonly accepted sentiment but hopefully we can normalize letting them participate as well

[amazoogle]

of course you did man. that's like your whole thing. you didn't even need to post the video, we already know

[rui-cifer]

that's reimu

you know what group of people are not marginalized and has a cohort that's been repeatedly accused of sexual misconduct? lmao the capital R Rationalists being a den of sex pest is no huge deal for learning about how to properly have sex with Yudkowsky but marginalized ppl existing is the real sex crime, according to the brain genuises on this site. Maybe they're just effectively altruistically defending one of the cofounders of a movement whose natural conclusions made the movement be compatible with largely classism, racism and being a sex pest!

[rui-cifer]

every now and then I am reminded that no one on tumblr, despite crowing about conservatives and such, know even a cursory amount about anything political and this week it was me finding Eliezer Yudkowsky tweet going around with people going, "he's got a point about sex though." The protégé of racist white supremacist Nick Bostrom. One of the most important founders of LessWrongism and the current way of conceptualizing Rationalism, whose natural conclusions lead to eugenics (with people in the circle gleefully writing eugenicist screeds to prove this). This guy has a point about how you should have sex. Get fucking real.

[rui-cifer]

like, people on here do not recommend peer-reviewed books on the Korean War; they recommend Podcasts. They don't fucking read books that are available for free on marxists.org, much less news articles that can be accessed with a little work. "The most passive way of getting educated or no thank you!" Maybe if some podcast that exists to read wikipedia back to you did an episode on him, you people would know not to put a eugenicist on my fucking dashboard talking about how he partakes in an act of reproduction.

The website that has 10k+ ppl nodding along to the racist Yudkowsky's musings about sex by the way thinks the bastion of reactionary thought are trans women. A website whose population at large is deeply deeply unable to be taken seriously when they talk about any form of politics or philosphy.

Ok. Since it obviously needs to be fucking laid out explicitly

Despite all the talk about 'pedophiles' on tumblr, there is zero evidence that any CSA has been perpetrated by the people accused, there is zero evidence that any actual CSAM has been shared or surreptitiously circulated at any point. There is zero evidence.

Like, that's it. Despite all the bullshit, despite all the what-aboutisms, despite all the deliberate and constant misinterpretation, despite all the twisting and obfuscation, despite all the mass surveillance and gang-stalking of trans women, nobody has turned up a god damn fucking thing. And no screenshots of tumblr posts do not fucking count sorry!

it's why I am so so immediately hostile to anyone who still acts like all of this shit hasn't been anything other than blatantly egregious transmisogyny.

usamerican tiktokers are currently talking about how knowing about abu ghraib is "chronically online shit" and you can't be rude to people who don't know about it because they never learned about it in their college polisci programs. if you were curious
