stop fucking calling all lesbians dykes (ex. "an older dyke", "many of the awesome dykes"), especially if you're not a lesbian. "lesbian" is a label that exists and it's rude and disrespectful to use a slur to refer to a broad group of people who you don't personally know. that should honestly be obvious.
When I say ‘dykes’, I mean ‘dykes’. As in: people who identify as dykes.
In the post you’re refering to I made it quite clear that I was writing about dykes I know and when I speak of these dykes I won’t erase or sanitize their identities by using a mainstream, tame, deradicalized word that denies the words they specifically chose for themselves to emphasize their identities and their struggles as queer marganilized working class proudly-perverted revolutionary DYKES.
Keep your fucking respectability politics to yourself.
