So we got fucking SPAMMED to shit by this user -- itsthesunman -- who went on a multi post transphobic tirade accusing Trans people of being confused, fetishistic, groomers, obnoxious, faking, and rude (tell me you voted for Trump without telling me you voted for Trump), and my bestie, Sarco, had to see that shit.
Sarco was going to -- more polite than I would ever be in a million years -- try to educate this absolute piece of human garbage, but the spam was so hate-fueled that they got overwhelmed and asked me to handle the situation while ve gets some much needed rest, so we blocked them and I am making a statement here.
This is NOT a call for harassment. As aggressive and absolutely livid as I am I would NEVER encourage or excuse that course of action. It is a call for blocking, as many transgender peeps in fandom would appreciate a blocklist away from miserable jackasses like the one pictured below.
Another piece of unfortunate news is this person posts about Undertale too, meaning you might have the bad luck of running into them in this fandom.
Warnings for mentions of abuse, accusations of abuse, child abuse, transphobia, blatant ableism, and even more textbook Republican transphobia, disrespect, and fear-mongering.
Apologies in advance for the stress this may cause and the weird way Sarco and I took screenshots of this dickhead's lunacy. They are all in order though, I guarantee you that.
We stand for Trans Rights. Trans Rights are human rights and will always be human rights.
Trans people are not fighting against nature, anyone who thinks otherwise are fucking idiots, and attempting to put nature in all these fucking westernized boxes is an impossible feat no matter how much you believe it has already happened.
I've always said it to Sarco but I will repeat it here. Our brains are just pink fleshy computers that we don't know everything about. Not scientifically, not spiritually, not neurologically, not psychologically, not psychiatrically, not in any state of science or superstition. Trans people's brains just have very different coding. Not wrong, different. Unlike a car that has the wrong engine we can't just rip the brain out and put it into a new body. Instead, and in terms of those that experience dysphoria, we have to work with what we've been given to make it bearable at the least. We have to use surgery to correct it and hormone therapy, and that's only if we are looking to medically and/or surgically transition.
It's not a fetish and never has been, it's a genuinely horrifying reaction at worst and more people than you can bother to comprehend have to live with that.
If I, an intersex person that identifies with the gender assigned to me at birth, can understand this shit, that says a lot more about you being the "confused and indoctrinated" little prick. Your usage of "narcissistic" and "psychotic", as real medical terms to define mental illness diagnoses and symptoms, to paint abusers as mentally ill when the vast majority of mentally ill people on the planet turn out to be the abused, is not only vehemently ableist on top of your transphobia, but also goes to show how fucking ugly of a person you are inside and out. You are advocating for the mass death of entire populations of people with these beliefs and projections and you couldn't care less. Instead of blaming your abusers and ONLY your abusers for your pain, you're trying to make it the responsibility of strangers. Huh. Haven't you ever heard of stranger danger or was that yet another lesson of common sense that's flown into one ear and out the other?
Please, if you are transphobic or ableist, do us a favor and deepthroat a cactus, spines and all since you and I both know you are not going to go get therapy, or go take an advanced Biology class, or do any actual fucking research on the things you claim to know so much about but have the intellect of a fucking amoeba. Your projection of anger and fear and pain onto random fucking people on the internet that had zilch to do with it is a counterproductive move to make, and none of that reflects badly on us. It's just you. You, yourself, and the indoctrinated fantasy you claim is "reality".
You are just going to trust the middle school biology class that you didn't even pay attention to. I mean even my horticulture class went into detail about how plants had FAR more than two genders. It's almost as if there have been more than two genders since the very start and in more species than just Homo fucking sapiens. Ah, but that doesn't matter to you, now does it? The only thing that matters to you is your absolute ADDICTION to hate being serviced, to blaming a made-up skeleton of a scapegoat for all the things haunting you instead of dealing with them directly and responsibly. You know, like an adult.
I would apologize for what you were put through as a child, I could at least pretend to sympathize and roll over to stroke your twisted state of ego, as that's exactly the response you are digging for as a justification for all the propaganda you're shitting backwards out of your mouth, and it would take too much effort for me to extend an olive branch to a display as deplorable as that.
How your trauma affected you and how you choose to live now is not anyone else's responsibility but your own.
But I should thank you for one thing, genuinely, and that's because you have only proven every single point I made in the two posts I've written before, the ones talking about politics and how harmful Republican ideology really is.
And genuinely, the people your families vote for do matter, as politics do affect how societies work. So cutting off or distancing from family members and ex-friends and whatever the fuck IS a valid move to make to preserve one's own quality of life and personal happiness. You can take your "politics is no reason to cut off family" and shove it up your ass. I hope it gets stuck up there.
So in many words, fuck off. Stick to your shit-filled echo chambers on Twitter, Truth Social, Kiwi Farms, Facebook, and Parler, and leave us and the rest of this fandom alone.
We are no longer interested in trying to educate people like you. We are no longer going to tolerate intolerance.
We never should've tolerated intolerance in the first fucking place. We, as a community, allowed that shit to fly for far too long.
We have a zero tolerance policy for hate. PERIOD. You and everyone else like you should stay the fuck off our page.
To the people that stuck through listening, take care of yourselves. No one like this asshole deserves to share your oxygen or take up an ounce of your time.
Genuine Question: is it bad if I call my dad right now to tell him I wish to never speak to him again because he voted for donald trump?
Because in my head, part of being a good parent is looking out for the good of your children no matter what. He voted for trump because he directly benefits under trumps economy and even after I showed him factual evidence of legislation that was passed BY TRUMP that directly effects women, POC, lgbtq+, literally anyone whose not a straight, white, conservative, Christian nationalist, evangelical male. And his response was “I have to vote for someone and I’m not voting for another round of Biden’s economy”
Im currently panicking, trying to figure out how I’m going to afford to get an iud (because if they restrict access to birth control, I’m gonna need something long term to get me through trumps presidency, MINIMUM) and trying to figure out how to go about attaining Irish citizenship (not bc of Hozier, Ireland is ranked the second safest country in the world as of the beginning of this year and iceland, which ranks first isn’t a primarily english speaking country and idk if I’ll have time to learn a new language)
It’s just insane to me that my dad genuinely places more importance on his wallet than his 3 daughters, all of which have to take birth control for some kind of health condition.
Like my sister has PCOS, and birth control keeps her from having ectopic pregnancies. My other sister has chrohns and for whatever reason, her birth control helps keep that in check. I have chronic menorrhagia, meaning if I get my period I can literally hemorrhage and bleed out if I don’t have the proper medical care. My birth control keeps that in check.
Quite literally my dad has looked me in my face and all but told me that his wallet is more important to him than the lives of his 3 daughters and I cannot think of anything other than just expelling him from my life permanently.
It was a regular Friday night in Kentwood Michigan. I was hungry and ordered take out to my apartment. That's what I thought the first knock was. I reached for the tv remote to mute the live presidential debate when I was interrupted by a second, louder knock. There was no third knock.
Jet black men armed with compact weapons flooded into my apartment like an inky tide of shouts and malice. "I.C.E. KEEP YOUR HANDS WHERE I CAN SEE THEM!" I didn't even have time to process who was shouting at me before I felt the cold plastic of a batton against my cheek. The next thing I knew I was in a van and white suited men were taking my blood. I could barely make out their conversation before blacking out again
"what should we name him?"
"Her. Show some respect."
"That's strange, I just treated a- okay her it is."
"How about Juanita?"
"I like that name... Juanita..."
I woke up in a white padded room with a rocking rack and a scrumptious vagina. "Where am I?" Everything was moving so fast. What respite I thought I had was stolen from me by another doctor, this time wearing a skullcap attached a leash to a collar I didn't even know I was wearing and pulled me out of the room and across a hallway to a building marked "Springfield Abortion Clinic" and forced me into a sitting position.
"It's a boy."
"Mhm."
"A cisgender. Heterosexual. Boy."
"Of course. Right away ma'am."
I knew this routine by now, and I didn't have the will to question it anymore. The doctor pressed a gun into my hands and pointed them towards the baby. The newborn's blond hair, blue eyes, perfect jawline, and washboard abs all stabbed me with stoic poise. It took its hand and removed the pacifier from his mouth and spoke these words:
"Woe is me, the sacred fruit of holy union between man and woman. Who among ye shall bat eye at the suffering of the innocent? The purest of souls? Woe and fire be upon the nation who purges their progeny. Woe. Woe I say!! Holy Jehovah shall turn his divine face, and us sinners shall know true toils and hardships once more. Oh how Jehovah's nation has fallen. His chosen people have plunged into the trappings of the wicked one. Only by electing an imbecilic con man can our nation be reborn in Jehovah's name, and once more see the divine blessings of our storied forefathers."
He then put the pacifier back in his mouth and turned his pure blue eyes on me once more. The doctor cocked the gun in my hands and I knew what I had to do. It was over quickly.
It was a long night, but I had more work. The doctor instructed me to get on all fours and marched out of the abortion clinic. I tried to get up but he pushed me down and forced me to keep crawling. We walked to what felt like hours until I heard a barking dog on someone's patio. The doctor seemed to have heard it too, and barked at me to get inside. I tried the door but he demanded I rip through the mesh. I was scared...and hungry...so I complied.
BANG!! That shocked me back to my senses. "Eat it." I was too shocked, too tired, too... hungry...but I didn't have to make that decision. The feeling of a barrel on the back of my head made that decision for me...
My name is Juanita. This is my story. This is why I'm voting Republican.
With Chloé being mayor in the name of "restoring democracy" (which she couldn't even pronounce), it reminds me a bit of US politics and how they claim to "restore democracy."
In Collusion, Chloé (illegally somehow) steps into the mayoral role so she can remain immune from the consequences that are yet to come for her, stating that she is "The People" and throwing around the word "democracy" (which she still could not pronounce at the end while giving a state address (or something similar to that).
In the US, Republicans claim to "protect the kids" while taking away gender affirming care, criminalizing ab0rti0ns, banning drag, banning "w0ke" books (in other words, books about Black history, stories about LGBTQ+ individuals, etc.) and so much more. Yet, they do not ban guns, which actually kill kids, and talk about raising the voting age so Gen Z does not vote yet. This is democracy under attack.
But 934, what does US politics have to do with Chloé being mayor and vice versa?
Power. The power the elite have. Chloé's family is rich, and she used their past influence (alongside Gabriel's wealth and technology, and Lila/Cèrise's manipulative skills), and this is how US politicians (and politicians in general) use their manipulative skills and wealth to claim and keep power as they attach the populous with policies, chipping away at whatever power marginalized communities have left.
Not to mention, adult politicians act like a 15 year old brat like Chloé when they don't get their way
