the outcries about shinigami eyes being used to keep an eye out for transmisogynists and transphobes in general and how this rots your brain [sic] or something are really funny considering crowdsourcing (which btw is not synonymous with "not making your own judgement ever") is one of the things the internet excels at. once again this just falls into the category of "you just don't like it when it's trans women doing it".

tboy-trash

like, this extension is basically a version of "does the dog die" (beloved by most people on this site!) but for transmisogyny. there's nothing keeping you from interacting with red marked users or looking for the reasons they're marked red to see whether you agree (i often do this myself even though there's never any false flags, i just like to know what particular brand of transphobe i'm dealing with). you're just mad trans women are trying to keep each other safe from you lol

if you are a tme queer person holding an event, especially a dyke/sapphic one, you need to go out of your way to make sure that the trans women in your community know they are welcome. most of the girls i know assume we’re not.

Why do they always talk about us like we aren't real people?

tsundereho

Like what they saying isn't a problem, it's the way they use Amab. Just say men/guys/boys/anything to describe the male gender that's not 'amab'

mikumiotics

I'm sorry but no, what they're saying IS a huge problem. It is THE problem.

When they say "genderfuck in that specific amab way" they aren't talking about men, they are talking about trans women. They are pining for the "radical genderfuckery" that trans women experience as discrimination and disgust from other people for being trans women and wearing feminine clothing such as skirts.

These people use ASAB language to obscure their transmisogyny, maybe unintentionally, but that's what's happening all the same.

Wish I could zap On Authority and Tyranny of Structurelessness out of the noosphere. I wish more people knew Critical Metaphysics as a Science of Apparatuses. Or Revolution of Everyday Life. Or the author Aragorn. I wish more people knew of this article

Anyone who takes those first two seriously I immediately think deeply less of.

this whole “sorry about your blog, just log off” stuff is a very important reminder that the average tme person fundamentally believes that trans women are exaggerating or flat out lying about the difficulty of our daily lives

ground-attack-angel

when a tme person hears something like “i am suicidal every day” they will translate that to “i am suicidal some days, but not often”

if they hear “i am unemployed” they will imagine you have a source of easy income outside of employment

if they hear “i am homeless” they will imagine that you must have a place to stay even if it’s not your own

ground-attack-angel

a lot of things these people say will make more sense when you remember that they largely believe that tma people are hysterical and our lives really aren’t so bad if we’d just pull ourselves up by the boot straps

Imo the best type of system for children to grow up in would be one that assumes the birth parents/primary guardians won't do shit and takes care of every aspect of childcare that's essential for their wellbeing and development, collectively.

But I'm just a guy who only learned how to brush his teeth properly and got glasses as a child because we had both a dentist and a doctor come to school on a regular basis. The dentist would have us all stand in a circle with our little toothbrushes and show us how to brush and correct our technique. The doctors would give us general health assessments and then have the teachers contact our patents and essentially peer pressure them into getting us any health intervention we needed. My parents only reluctantly got me glasses because they knew the teachers would judge them if they kept seeing me sit in the very front row and still squint to see the chalkboard. So I'm biased.

shamebats

The only times I ever remember seeing a dentist or doctor as a child was at school. I'm quite healthy physically and I'm very grateful for all the care I got from the various professionals who cared about my well-being and development more than my actual parents did.

We had free healthcare including dental, mind you, my parents just couldn't be bothered. When my brother, as a teenager, asked our mother if she could take him to his orthodontist appointments (which he'd already arranged for on his own) she basically told him she didn't feel like it and he had to take the bus.

If I could improve anything about that system, I'd take it even further and make it so kids could see a doctor and get meds, treatments, therapy, tests, disability aids etc. without having to rely on their parents as well. I shouldn't have had to put up with being bullied and guilt-tripped about the family finances and the time investment needed to take me to the optometrist every time I needed new glasses.

shamebats

Some parents would not take care of their children even if they were given all the time and the resources. Mine are a great example of that — my mother stopped working and became a homemaker when I was in kindergarten, my father worked from the garage and was also always home. They had a car and our village even had a bus that would come once or twice an hour that would take you to the next two bigger cities.

Did that, plus the free healthcare, translate into them actually parenting and caring for us properly? It did not. They only ever did any of that reluctantly when not doing it would make them look bad, and most of the time they did a shitty job because they could never resist the urge to boost their egos by means of bullying literal children.

So I have to wonder: what did they actually contribute to our upbringing? Like they didn't teach us shit and mostly they just endangered our mental and physical health — but hey, at least they gave me cPTSD! That took some work too.

A knee-jerk response to neglectful parenting I see a lot is “people should have to get licenses and take rigorous tests to PROVE that they should be ALLOWED to have kids” which is eugenics. That’s just the starting line for eugenics.

We are at a point in humanity where there is no meaningful reason why we shouldn’t be structuring our societies around wellbeing for all instead of wellbeing for the “deserving”.

Assume some parents will fail. Build social infrastructure that is designed to support failed kids rather than punish would-be parents.
