sorry but something needs to be said about this group of racist white european trans women being seen as some pillars to the trans community here on tumblr. plaidos, isff, eradicate-tmes-now, etc, that whole cohort is extremely openly racist and everyone who nods their heads and agrees w/ them because they're trans women is complicit in racism.
the trans community, just like many other communities, is often built on the backs of POC! allowing these white women into our spaces to openly shit on POC is detrimental and needs to be called out.
like this is the same group that called Tumblr bans LYNCHING. it's not caring about trans women to put these white trans women on pedestals, because often, you're shooting down every trans woman of color who speaks up against these absolutely evil racist people because the only good trans person is someone who agrees with you and your idolized European white trans women, right?
i've literally watched so many trans women of color be silenced, told they don't count, accused of not even being trans women at all (take these as you will, i don't have any screenshots to go back on so whether you believe me or not is your own choice. i have no desire to "provide proof" because my point still stands with or without this fact) and supposedly it's Transfeminism to support people like this? and it's transmisogyny to be sick and fucking tired of white people overstepping, being OPENLY FUCKING RACIST, and then getting a big round of applause every time they post anything like a bunch of idiotic seals in the stands?
saying what every poc has been shouting from the rooftops since forever, if you're not ACTIVELY ANTI-RACIST, you are participating and complicit in racism. and being actively anti-racist includes calling these people out, not allowing this type of shit to fly, and CERTAINLY not allowing it to happen fifty fucking times over while the trans POC on Tumblr are supposed to watch as our traumas and generations of fucking suffering are put into the ground by people who have never experienced racism, but LOVE to use our terms for our oppression and the violent hate crimes against us to support their own points about losing their fucking Tumblr blogs.
I'm really disappointed by all this. ISFF goes after every racial minority and then, when we get upset, we're her stalkers and harassers. it's literally weaponized white woman tears, and you're all falling for it. you're all letting it happen.
do better, not just for yourselves, but for the trans POC you claim to support.
