drives me up a wall living in a very very red district, like “no democrat is ever going to win any local election, let alone a real leftist” district, like “our school board members ran on who was the most anti-mask” red, like “I pass white supremacist signs on the way to buy weed” red

and being in the local leftist community and the guy who runs the anarchist book club and the lady who helps keep the warming shelters open and the people who marched on city hall when a local business was getting death threats for having a drag show are all members of a discord and we get on this discord and have frank discussions about how best to vote

the people who do the protests and the mutual aid and all the real work

going “okay, they’re both fascists, but this one lacks ambition and seems happy to just glide in the position” or “they both suck, but this one can be reasoned with if you frame it patriotically enough” like we don’t even have a democrat to vote for. we know what a vote is. we know what we hope accomplish with it. we know what it can do, and we know what it can’t.

and going from those discussions to here where people think that your vote is some kind of fucking??? enabling maneuver??? as if someone isn’t going to end up in that seat regardless of what you do???

we didn’t build this system, we just live in it. we’re just trying to survive. a vote isn’t a statement of your values, it’s not an endorsement, it’s not a marriage contract, it’s a strategic play you make to keep alive.

the biggest mistake I see leftists making is overestimating their own popularity. “well but everyone would be leftist if they just-“ no, stop, 1) you can’t possibly know that 2) everyone will not just

I miss when most people in lefty queer feminist circles understood why "not all men" is stupid annoying and missing the point

tlirsgender

"You can't hate men some of them are gay or black or something" criticism of men as a social class isn't about individual men being mean or not. Criticism of men as a social class also isn't the same thing as bioessentialism, the patriarchy isn't about hormones or chromosomes or whatever the fuck else. Do you get it. I know someone with the cool gay disabled black dad you're all citing for Why Men Are Good, Actually and she still has to live under the patriarchy. Do you understand? Yeah, sure, not ALL men, but 99% of the time it's men in positions of power fucking over everyone else !!! Please

Like... oh my god. It's absolutely worth talking about intersectionality and how white (and/or cishet, abled, whatever) women hold a certain level of power over other groups, but we can't be denying that the patriarchy... exists. Remember feminism? I miss feminism so much

handful-of-bugs

#also i always get a strange feeling whenever online people's definition of intersectionality is 'which men are opressed by women'#like yes white women (especially middle/upper class cis abled etc.) can hold power over several groups of men#but did you know... that every single one of those opressed classes... also has women in it?#'do you think a homeless man can be misogynistic against a rich white woman'#believe it or not i'm actually a lot more concerned about the homeless women he's around#the framing of men of color as dangerous predators to white women is obviously white supremacy#but that doesn't those men aren't misogynistic. and their primary victims are overwhelmingly women of color in their own communities#idk it sure is something that these people's definition of intersectionality so blatantly ignores black women#who the term was grouped by and for!#misogyny#feminism
