Her/She - trans fem - MUST READ : Who Am I ? Who are you ? I'm a wandering and vagrant queer soul. Human body, transfem under HRT. I don't believe in authority, the sacred nature of private property, social and gender roles, "biological sexes", philosophical taboos (things that "shouldn't be discussed", even I'm fully against it - I have my limits tho), systemic violence and the need for hierarchy. I like to argue, talk with passion, provide and share ressources and references in debates. I reblog and post about what my heart tells me. I don't believe in the concept of a pure, eternal and divine Truth. I'm both a skeptical and mystical rationalist. Which means for example I'm interested in mysticism for the philosophy but I tend to be skeptical with any metaphysical assumption. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [NOW TRIGGER WARNING, CONTENT WARNING /+18 or legal majority where you live] My Blog may sometimes deals with kinks, erotic issues, abuse of any kind (to confront it), mental illness, troubles and madness (yeah like psychiatry) and radical politics, so if you are against one or the other or just under the majority of your legal oppressive state : just leave, or enter at your very own risks. That being said the materials posted and rebloged are mainly about gender and queer issues and radical politics : mostly anti-cisheteropatriarchy and revolutionnary anarchism, but also anti-capitalism, anti-racism, internationalism, antifascism, funny memes and kawai shit, poetry, cinema and dangerous litterature.
icant even explain why i feel this way about it but this meme, this specific version, just makes me so emotional i love it so so much. its very heartwarming. peace n love on planet earth
regular plea for people to stop using this as a reaction image
[ID: A white man in a suit who is saying, "Now this might strike some viewers as harsh, but I believe everyone involved in this story should die". End ID]
this is a real sentence that was said by a during an snl skit by the guy in the picture (norm macdonald) in response to a real news story - specifically, the murder of brandon teena, a trans man, whose death macdonald is mocking here. this very sentence that has now been turned into a meme prompted a trans rights org to picket the nbc in absence of any apology from them (the statement here slightly misquotes the sentence, but you can find video demonstrating that the wording in the image is what he said). i've used this as a reaction image in the past when i didn't know the history behind it but i think more people should know and we should stop using it like this
âyou donât like the proliferation of terms like Unalive outside of TikTok because you realize that youâre aging out of youth culture and it makes you uncomfortable!â
no I donât like it because thereâs something INCREDIBLY dystopian about being forced to soften terms for basic parts of the human experience like death and sex (and even more so terms for oppressed minorities- call me a âle-dollar sign-bianâ and I will bite you) purely because advertisers and corporations demand it
4 months ago I posted about how Russian-financed media outlet Red Fish was intermixing pro-Palestina messages and general leftist news with more subtle anti-Ukraine and pro-Russian propaganda.
A lot has happened since then in pro-Palestinian activism in Western Europe (or the part of it that I see anyway). There has been a lot of very valid criticism of Zelenskyâs frequent pro-Israel messages as well as other things that are truly shitty about Zelensky.
Unfortunately there has also been more and more âUkraine is run by literal Nazisâ misinformation bullshit, as well as a small but growing number of pro-Palestinian activists putting out literal pro-Russian messages and Z imagery and conspiracy theories with a few swerving off right into Q-Anon shit. .
In short: the propaganda is working. That isnât all thanks to Red fish. Theyâre simply the most prominent and visible propaganda outlet targeting pro-Palestinian activists in this way. The rest of the propaganda and misinformation pipeline is probably constructed of social media accounts that pose as individuals.
I think everyone in pro-Palestinian activism should be very concerned about this. Comrades are succumbing to misinformation funnels that were designed specifically for them. An imperialist state power is trying to take advantage of an anti-imperialist movement, using their isolation and completely valid anger at âwesternâ powers to drive them towards supporting a horrific dictator.
Russian propagandists donât give a shit how much this will hurt and potentially tear apart pro-Palestinian activist movements. As long as there is pro-Russian propaganda being spread, it doesnât matter to them who gets hurt. Pro-Palestinian activists are just a tool to hit opponents with and they donât give a shit if the tool breaks in the process.
Treat this like your movement is under attack, because it is.

Respectfully, the word youâre searching for here is âantisemitismâ.
Most of the west state leaders have âfrequent pro-israeli messagesâ. Insisting on Zelensky being some sort of âzionist agentâ to trigger knee-jerk support to Russia while Zelensky politics have like zero to little to do with Palestine is obviously antisemitic. Conspiracy theories involving Jews are antisemitic. Seeing âzionistsâ everywhere but in Israel/Judea/Palestine/Jordan in conflicts that has virtually nothing to do with Palestine, and typically accusing Jewish people of plotting against humanity and being âliteral nazisâ absolutely is antisemitism 101.
I feel like leftists and anarchists in North America and Europe shall start to wonder how the never ending and ongoing stenches of antisemitism in western-centric âanti-imperialismâ and pro-Palestinian struggles are a giant boulevard, if not 4-lane one sided highway for other empires/imperialists and local fascists to carry their full of bulshit military trucks convoy behind the dumbfound eyes of their subjugated selfs.
In our political and historical context : antisemitism is the matrix of all conspiracy theories. And you will regularly find it anywhere powerful and wealthy people (but also like actual empires, and the fascist clowns who support them) try to convince you they are the âreal victimsâ where they are actually the oppressors, the exploiters, the invaders, the attackers. Etc.
