Realizing I didn't answer why the context matters-
A white christian swedish man burning the Quran to express his hatred of it is presumably motivated by the desire to maintain the status quo/protest equal treatment of other religions.
An Assyrian man burning a Quran is an expression of defiance. He said- look at me: for over a thousand years you have tried to make people like me be respectful of this book, on pain of death. Now I am in Sweden, where I am free to tell you exactly what I think of this book by setting it on fire, and you can't stop me.
And then Sweden proved him wrong.
Sweden said: actually, no- no matter where you go in this world, you will never be equal to a Muslim.
I just realized why trans radfems piss me off so much more than cis ones, cis radfems are idiots who got wrapped in or concluded themselves that being trans is a choice and that the ridged social structures that need a police state to inforce it somehow concerned with biology, TRANS radfems went through a whole ass transition (while saying that trans is short for transition the same way that any other radfem does) and THEN somehow unlearned everything that they and other transfems had to deal with growing up or literally ignore the things that they and other transmascs go through now for some semblance of comfort that they think is more important than not throwing their community under the bus
Yep, they're traitors, through and through
If hatred is what fuels your activism, then your activism is probably bullshit
Anything that insiuates that trans men are uniquly capable of misogyny
Anything that claims trans men/mascs transition to gain something, things like male privilege, or to "escape" misogyny
Claiming that trans men/mascs transition for a fetish, anything that says they're fetishizing gay men and are only transitioning to sleep with said men.
Claiming trans men are trying to get into "women's spaces" to rape lesnians(I've seen this a few times from cis lesbians)
Vilifying and fear mongering against testosterone
Anything that claims they are "protecting women" "protecting little girls"
"rapid onset gender dysphoria"
Anything that's claims trans men don't understand their own oppression
Calling trans men and mascs"emotional, hysterical,"
This is also exorsexism, but slurs like "theyfab" and "zippertits"
Claiming that trans men/mascs don't experience misogyny
Claiming that trans men don't actually want to be men, they just "don't want to be women" this was used in the book "irreversible damage" and I've seen it a few times outside of that
Anything from the book "irreversible damage"
Add more if you can think of it
Oh! Apparently transandrophobes are now being very mask off with the fact that they are the same community as truscum/transmeds, 2019 exclus, and every other "grrr other queer people" group!
People will really act like talia bhatt just has haters because she's a brown trans woman and not that she's an asshole who covers up her caste status, lashes out at random trans women who she thinks are slighting her, comes up with racist theories about how all genders from other cultures are just misgendered binary trans women with no input from queer people from those cultures, and lied about the existence of a cult and the harm of its survivors. It's just because miss radical feminism: trans flavor is all these minority identities.
not to sound blunt but the idea that a trans woman who raises her voice or is rude or speaks over someone else is behaving in a uniquely male manner is just blatantly misogynistic and i don't think you need a gender studies degree to understand that
So many people really really really want Nazism and the Holocaust to not be about Jews.
i’m not even gonna break this one down bc “male privilege isn’t a material benefit it’s just literally not being a woman” i think pretty much speaks for itself.
If you rrrrreally truly believe in the "evil" of transmascs and their "grabs for gendered power," if you legitimately fear trans men, that's a lot worse for you because it's like, okay, well, good luck with that. I don't really care and no one really should, get over your bizarre personal issues on your own time and then when you're done you can intern for the people agitating for actual transfeminist change in the world since you seem far enough behind that fetching me coffee seems like it might be the zenth of your potential until we can catch you up on remedial praxis.
And don't even start saying I must mean it's ridiculous to be scared of trans men in a bioessentialist way, as though this is me ranking physical strength via AGAB. Any individual transmasc could shoot me or stab me or strangle me with piano wire or indeed, beat me to death with their fists, so could a lot of people, and yet trans men are overwhelmingly supportive allies.
I like it black btw.
