Sometime in the late 1990s, I arrived home after a particularly frustrating consultation with an organization I was working with at the time
"White supremacy culture is inextricably linked to all the other oppressions - capitalism, sexism, class and gender oppression, ableism, ageism, Christian hegemony - these and more are all interconnected and intersected and stirred together in a toxic brew.."
the post you screenshotted mentioning racial slurs in comparison makes me believe white lesbians saw how it was around things like the antiblack slur and the variations of it that were used against other PoC, where it actually IS misdirected and antiblack to reclaim if youre not black, and applied it to the d slur and bi women. A LOT of lgbt discourse relies on concepts around racial oppression being misapplied to the lgbt community where it doesnt fit(like non-lesbian/non-bi for example)
YEAH EXACTLY YOU FUCKING GET IT THANK YOU that is so based and you should say it and others should listen tbh.
racial oppression and lgbt oppression are not comparable (on a large and/or general scale, at least) and Black people are saying this shit all the time, so it's ironic that other white lgbt discoursers claim to uplift voices of color but then ignore them and use this argument for their convenience because it drives me CUH-RAY-ZEE, and every time i see it i lose a year off of my lifespan.
i see lots of sources that are in favor of "dyke" being reclaimed by all sapphics, and obviously i use them to my advantage because they're good, but i wish they also mentioned this because every time i get into a controversy surrounding the 'd' slur, my opposer brings up racial slurs and it's like. Not the same thing??? that is Not the inarguable gotcha you want it to be actually??? and i know how to explain why that's the case but i still wish i had something to refer to, yk??
