#radqueer mention

[artisticdysfunction]

all this hate against created plurality... and most of it is people insisting that the strawmen in their minds are real actually

- plurality is not a disability. complex dissociative disorders are disabilities, and plurality is not.

- created plurality can be used as a method of self-harm, but it is not inherently so.

- making the choice to become plural does not give bigots any ground whatsoever because bigots should stop being bigots regardless of whether the person they're harassing has any choice in the matter

- if you were in communities of people with experience, one of the very first things you learn is that it's irresponsible to (fully intentionally) make a sentient being based solely on a whim.

- tulpamancy has existed long before radqueers, willomancy is specifically stated to be branching off of tulpamancy. "oh willomancy didn't exist before 2022" that's when the branch off happened. the history before that is with tulpamancy.

- there are other more insidious claims that i'm not going to really talk about because it's just thinly veiled ableism/saneism towards others, and also some transmisogyny pointed towards me.

Hey.

It's Carie. Except right now you're getting Mean Carie because I need all of you to listen. Okay?

We have been getting recurring asks about the radqueer situation, and at this point they have started to hit a tone I really do not like nor have patience for. We have made our stance on radqueers perfectly clear: We do not care.

I don't know if it went over everyone's heads, but this blog is NOT about radqueers. For OR against. That is NOT the topic of this blog. That being said, we recognize that our blog has become a mental health resource for a severely stigmatized illness, and so we refuse to discriminate or exclude people in any way from this blog. End of story.

This blog was made to be about Munchausen Syndrome, and that is how it will stay. Going forward, ANY asks regarding radqueer rhetoric, for OR against, will be deleted by default. I'll reblog this post every time we get one if I have to.

For the love of god stay on topic. Thank you.

-Carie

*posts in radqueer space* «Do you support radqueers?»

>90% yes

«see? Everyone supports radqueer!!!!»

I did not post in a pro-willogenic space though... I could repeat this poll on any platform or in any tag and the results would be about the same. The majority of endogenics support willogenics as created plurality was intentionally included in the endogenic label at its coining. That's simply reality. Don't like it too bad you can't change reality any more than you can choose to have a CDD.

Though I will thank you for giving me inspiration for more educational posts. There are a lot of things I write in comments a lot but have not taken the time to sit down and write a post about. Debunking the myths you are trying to spread gives me something I enjoy to do with my time.

Not all endogenics choose to be plural. But you know what the real difference between endogenics and TransPlurals is? Its the community that surrounds them. I won't say the endogenic community is perfect but the majority of it isn't even half as bad as the radqueer community. Many harmful things that are perfectly acceptable and respected in the radqueer community are absolutely shunned in endogenic communities.

But the real problem with this ideology is that it plays into why people identify as radqueer in the first place. Many radqueers have normal human experiences, normal trauma responses that outside of that community should see acceptance but they do not. They auto get lumped in with radqueers based on their experiences and get shunned from communities because they dare to have less favorable experiences that aren't harming anyone. They run to the open arms of the radqueer community because they are the only ones who treat them with a shred of dignity for their experiences. And the radqueer community does so much harm to the people who are part of their community by what they accept but sometimes it's better than the alternative of being shunned for your experiences. That's what the radqueer community feeds off of.

Endogenic experiences have been noted historically for centuries. It's a normal experience one can have. It only becomes TransPlural when they are shunned from every place that is not the radqueer community. Just like they systems who have dysphoria around their trauma not feeling like it was enough and end up pushed into the transharmed community because of the lack of acceptance of their experiences in the system community. Just like OSDD systems who wish they had DID so the system community would see their experiences as valid who end up identifying as TransDID.

The radqueer community thrives on us labeling experiences as solely a radqueer/transID thing to be shunned from the community. That's how it continues to build its community. We can do better to understand the experiences being talked about outside of the context of the radqueer community instead of simply lumping every experience even mildly related as something solely experienced in that community. All that does is invalidate so many common trauma responses as "just a radqueer thing."

i wish the radqueer community wasn’t so blehhhhhhhhhggggg. i love some trans id labels and i want to use them and post about them and talk to people with similar labels but the community is so evil awful and so many people are pro contact and just bleughhhh. when the worst community you know made some super cool labels!! its not fair :(

got a problem, I dont want to be radqueer nor do I identify as one due their belief system, however im anti-transition + anti-bad faith, however I want to use trans____ / rq material specifically for sh purposes, / self protection (transharmed) additionally I feel like both anti and pro communities frame me as a bad person which I already struggle with combatting daily. im like stuck in those limbo place im not trying to transition to ___ I want to harm myself/satisfy the “i am suffering”itch

unfortunately we ourselfves aren't able to try to help with this problem, both because The OCD and because this is not a topic we feel confident enough in to help a stranger with, but i'm posting the ask nonetheless in the hopes someone else can indeed help you with your situation!! i'm sorry you're going through that anon, it really sounds like you're stuck between a rock and a hard place

the only other thing i can think to suggest is maybe try asking @ask-a-radqueer for some advice on your predicament? we've spoken with him several times before and found him to be very respectful and thoughtful! i trust that he's not going to try and convince you to be a radqueer or convince you to transition, but rather that he could be someone you could talk to without feeling like you're being judged as a bad person for what you're going through

anti radqueer in a “i dont like what the community stands for or the environment the community creates for anyone, am vehemently anti contact, and dont support some of the actions people in the community do “because of their identities””

pro radqueer in a “i understand and have no issue with most of the identities and labels on their own, even some of the ones a lot of people deem “harmful” because i understand why someone would identify with those labels in some way”

[sophieinwonderland]

Go away system-facts. The radendo stuff is boring. The only thing you've said that is even slightly entertaining is calling me simultaneously a radqueer and a TERF, which are on like, the farthest possible opposing ends of their respective spectrum.

Just give up!
