weirdos and under-16 ppl will be unceremoniously removed
AGR taking a break from the main narrative in thom to drag the adamses (mostly JQ)
my issue with rpf is rarely around the ethics of it itself, itâs mostly that if a man is involved with the rpf ship and he has a girlfriend, the fans of the rpf ship will start misogynistic smear campaigns against the gf. maybe thatâs just me though
Harry styles, Louis Tomlinson, and Eleanor Calder are entitled to compensation.
Anti theism feminists are the same as anti theist marxists. They claim to represent a just cause, but then gatekeep that cause from the very people it would serve. When 76% of the world is religious, any âprogressiveâ movement that claims religious people are not allowed is deeply unserious and disconnected. The end.
STOP THE PRODUCTION OF THE HAUNTING ADELINE MOVIE!

Is anyone else seeing whatâs on C-SPAN right now
Changed my pfp and removed amr*v from my pinned post because like 90% of people in that community are corny freaks who need psychiatric treatment
I block these maladjusted weirdos and yall and tumblr still show them to me. The sludge is too powerful
Conservative immigrants will decry and flee state violence in their home country, but then support it in the US đ€š
It is thus very difficult to talk about American imperialism to victims of American imperialism and politically unite the immigrant community because these types donât actually believe American imperialism is bad? Gusanos are global ig
BUT ALSO to the native born liberals: an immigrant having reactionary views is never an excuse to sic the state on them. Period. Had to be said, bc some of yall are trifling

conservatism is when gen z uncomfortable with you happily admitting to getting aroused by the idea of your partner acting like child!!! đ puhlease
Just so we're clear. Isff is a racist, transphobic, ableist fetishizer and pro contact anti treatment pedophile. White and french only tokenizing minorities she knows and never loving them for them. Hell any trans person young or old she can't jerk off two is an enemy.
Her followers are known for viciously suicide baiting anyone who disagrees to such point that they seemingly killed two users, the counter-isff transfem accounts "Suggestingforcefem" and "estrogennow."
Am I missing anything? They want to fuck kids so bad they'll spend weeks covering this up and misgendering anyone who disagrees. When explained this behavior is also racist, they posture and tokenize people like say, Anonsee who is a black former fed. And PDB, who is a cis feeder blog.
And they let Doyoulovethewayzeylily manipulate 18 year olds into accepting preds but also shes friends with so many 18 year old "maps" that its obvious that they are former children she groomed.
People writing manifestation of transmasc detransitioning and suicide cannot go under discussed. As many as these people run off the site, they attempt to kill and recloset.
They are neo fascist in every behavior.
Disgusting. BTW.
Hi, sorry if this is something I could look up somewhere else but I'm not sure where to look - I've seen a few girls talk about the Baeddel cult and that it fostered sexual abuse, but what actually happened? I've never seen details and it seems like a good idea to know about details since we've got another cult situation on our hands now (isff & friends) and knowing details is good for recognizing patterns of behavior.
If you don't want to answer that's fine, I hope you're having a nice day â€ïž
The baeddel community, the actual original one not the vague insinuations people throw around at trans women with feminist politics, formed out of early transfeminist politics on tumblr.
For context, itâs important to note that many of us not only were interested in feminist theory but specifically second wave radical feminist theory, both to critique and to do âtransâ readings of them. At the time âqueeringâ as a verb was a popular academic discourse in which you would âqueerâ a text, film, etc to reveal what is missing from something, what if we read this text through not merely a queer critique but as if it was already affirming of queer difference, identity and experiences? What if we read it as an always already queer text?
So in a sense we were taking this academic literature framework and doing our own transfeminist spin. Dworkin and MacKinnon were popular authors to do this to. We started reading radical feminist texts and lesbian second wave feminist theory as if it was always already transfeminist, already affirming, actually from a certain perspective a pro transfeminist text.
This was very unique and frankly avant garde for even the academy let alone laymen on a blogging site. It attracted a lot of young trans women with burgeoning socialist and anarchist beliefs. We read Whipping Girl and felt dissatisfied with its ultimately liberal politics on gender - political revolution and self-abolition became popular ideas.
There was a large feminist community on tumblr for trans women, partially due to the number of graduate students who would share their reading material for a mass audience. This both became the basis for the later abuses as well as the basis for the challenging of those abuses.
Some transfeminists discovered that âbadâ has roots in an olde English word for âhermaphroditeâ and âeffeminate man.â Despite this word (baeddel) clearly referencing people with visible intersex variations, a trans reading was done of it through bad internet entomology and it became proof of transmisogyny being at least a few hundred year old oppression. People even call it a âslur,â despite there being no evidence of it being used for violence which is usually how we define slurs.
This became a rallying call for a subsection of this transfeminist community who began adopting the term. The baeddel community had its own celebrity theorists - b8l (who was accused of race faking by a Black trans woman who met her in person) and unobject. They amassed a large amount of social influence so that when two baeddel members accused each other of rape - those two got the whole community to isolate the victim. Even their own admissions to what the situation was had a lot of holes - for instance, they claimed the victim (Elle) was actually the rapist for ârescinding consentâ and even the rapist (Eve) didnât deny that the victim was restrained while she the rapist held a knife.
But such is it with cult dynamics, even I went along at first. I still feel a great amount of shame about that. I became unpopular with that crowd because I was willing to call them on it. Eventually the transfeminist community pushed them out - too many people knew and saw through the bullshit.
But a lot of people held on - for reasons that seem familiar. This community had for years spread narratives that the only other people you can trust and will love you is this small clique and hush shhhh donât call out rape amongst your sisters, we are so vulnerable. Everyone else is a transmisogynist monster, you can trust us we wonât let you get hurt. You shouldnât make criticisms. It was just kink!
Seeing that come back but in a new social context is certainly disturbing. Seeing the problem become much bigger than it was the previous time, also disturbing. There seems to be less pushback than there was before. I think the fact that the Baeddels were very intentionally aesthetically offputting (not in physical appearances to be clear, but in communication style, politics and a general edgelord alternative vibe to their blogs) made it harder for them to gain traction. It also required more work - you at least had to engage with what other people were reading if not reading and producing readings yourself. Thereâs less barrier for entry which I think has made this new group far more palatable while also being more extreme in what theyâre demanding of their followers.
The cutesy innocent aesthetic is in and I guess thatâs easier for people to swallow than a bunch of gutter punks hurting each other. At least the Baeddels werenât trying to get the community to accept rape and pedophilia as a general practice. Their issue was rape culture when it did come up but they werenât the types to demand no call outs of any kind to any one, just when it affected their friends. Which is far more typical than what weâre seeing now which is just open acceptance of pedophilia and a zero tolerance policy towards criticisms for rape.
Witnessing this shit happen is why i am still resistant to like ânewâ âreclamationsâ of the word âbaeddelâ because for me it just reminds me of toxic bullshit from 10+ years ago.
I will never be comfortable with it either. I donât want a new generation of young women to realize the hard way that trust has to be built on deeper foundations than shared identity and not everyone who gasses up sisterhood is actually someone who has your best interests in mind. Itâs more than identity and itâs more than rhetoric.
Do they actually respect your boundaries? Are they trying to fuck you the first moment youâre alone when youâve never had a sexual conversation with them previously? Are they trying to exert some kind of financial influence on you? Does their rhetoric ultimately lead you to isolating yourself socially from others, does it instill a sense of distrust towards the world? Are you told they are the only people who will love you? Is it impossible to provide constructive criticisms or enforce your own boundaries without it being seen as an attack on their personhood?
This is a red flag no matter who it comes from. It is universally true. If you feel like there are exceptions, that it is something that can be exploited by people you thought could trust. This is my advice for everyone in any community anywhere - walk away from anyone who acts like this. These arenât trustworthy behaviors and Iâm not pulling these examples from thin air.
After my experiences in the early 2010s not just with Baeddels but also monetizeyourcat Iâm not just not gonna sit quietly while people engage in dangerous behavior and rhetoric or try to spin the Baeddels as actually correct underdogs we should emulate. God no, that was so much stress and anxiety and broken trust. I donât want any young women to go through that like we either did directly or witnessed around us.
Old heads will remember when monetizeyourcat showed up unannounced to my apartment where I was having a small Hanukkah celebration with some friends. Someone I invited invited her. I did not know they were dating. I had to have a friend ask her to leave which caused all sorts of grumbling from her partners who I was unaware were associated. This shit isnât a joke, *anyone* can be dangerous and people claiming not to be are usually the most dangerous.
