Hey Flatland fandom please block reecey9o5.

Spreading TERF bullshit, claiming that it's a huge issue of "men pretending to be part of a social class they're not", which is a really fucking blatant dogwhistle about trans women endangering "real women".

@/rosebadwolf1000 is a cryptoterf.

I usually don't make callouts, but this time it feels kinda personal. we're not close but they share multiple fandom spaces with some of my friends, they've drawn fanart of an AU I made, hell, one of their friends (or maybe it's their sideblog? I'm not really sure anymore honestly) even wrote a fic based on the very same AU.

now, you may notice they don't have any pronouns in their bio. which isn't necessarily a red flag--not everyone does. that's not why I'm accusing them of spreading harmful anti-trans rhetoric.

(since I assume this will end up on several people I don't know's dashes, for the sake of your sanity and my own, I'm putting the rest of the screenshots under the cut.)

I know what you're probably thinking. "dizzy, while this is a disappointingly liberal centrist take, I don't see how it makes them a TERF."

which is honestly what I thought at first. but then I scrolled through their blog, and it barely took any time at all to find these:

bear in mind--I've only subjected you to one reblog per each TERF--they've reblogged a shit ton of feminist posts from them, most of which (recently) are about roe v. wade and how it is a Women's [Only] Issue.

and yet I was still on the fence until a friend of mine (who I'm keeping anonymous) did some digging of their own and found the following two posts:

so yeah, they're a TERF whether they believe it or not.

disclaimer: please don't harass them or send them nasty anons "on [my] behalf", just block them and let your trans friends know to do the same.

is there anything more disheartening in life than finally confirming that one of your favourite blogs, even a mutual, is run by a cryptoterf/ radfem?

as a trans person it’s just a fucking sucker punch to the gut, which you slowly guess is coming but you just don’t fully know until the last minute. 

like a sinking feeling that builds and builds overtime until -WHAMMY- you got terfed.

and all of a sudden you remember that you’re never safe. that any of the feminists and cis women you think you know and love could be one of them, could hate people like you, could think you were garbage, or worse: think you’re someone who need saving from their own gender, their own experiences, their personhood. 

honestly if you’re a cis woman or a feminist and you’re not reckoning with this stink in your communities, we can’t be friends. and if you hang with or support terfs and cryptoterfs, you are not my ally, you are not my sister. you’re the problem. 

let’s not talk about it. i’m so tired and so hurt. and i’ve already been told once today that my gender isn’t real and “if i knew what was good for me i’d realize that i’m really a woman, and get over myself” and i don’t really want to sit with cis women, particularly cis feminists who refuse to deal with the terfs in their communities, any more. y’all are fake as fuck. you are actively supporting these women in their violence against trans women and trans people in general, or at the very least, you’re turning a blind eye. own it, deal with it, do something.
