I Mean, ‘all Work Is Slavery Under Capitalism’ Is REALLY Compatible With ‘“sex Work” Is Bad.’

Didn't wanna add this to the last post bcs it's a bit off topic but HEY WHAT THE FUCK??

Wow! What a great idea, it's not like there's ever been a severe weather event that ended up killing a bunch of people who only speak Spanish because they did not have access to appropriate warning systems they could understand due to systemic racism treating them as disposable-OH WAIT NO THAT DID HAPPEN.

Actual horseshit. Spanish is the second most spoken language in the USA, this is just another sign that systemic racism continues to devalue the lives of anyone who isn't white and it will get people killed. I'm not kidding, I don't fuck around with severe weather warning systems, and if you take even the shallowest look at the history of meteorology in this country you will immediately see how many people have died due to not being properly informed about tornados and other natural disasters. Anything that makes it harder for the average person to know if a goddamn tornado is heading right for them or not is a miscarriage of social justice and should be corrected immediately.

Idk what can be done to restore the channel, but in the mean time please look out for your friends, family, and neighbors, especially if you live somewhere prone to natural disasters and extra especially if they don't speak English. If The Weather Channel won't step up to ensure that the flow of information is easily accessible to everyone who needs it we're gonna have to do it ourselves.

Female people should be more ‘shallow’ tbh.

Males are allowed ‘shallowness’ all the time, you ask a male about his preferences and they’re rarely like, ‘I care about people’s hearts and souls UwU.’ No! He’ll say the most shallow shit imaginable! And no one will rush out to hate on them or find some way to ‘correct’ them for saying they like a woman with a fat ass. Female people are socialized and pressured out of admitting any hint of what they’re actually attracted to, female people are denied enthusiastic desire and lust and just. Let yourself be shallow and choosy and picky. Males don’t worry about being considered shallow when they call females over 160 ‘whales’. This isn’t even a call to be as cruel as they are about taste, just hoping to help some people move past their shame and guilt.

by insisting humans are sexually dimorphic, the evil terfs apparently reinforce inherently racist western white beauty standards... unlike the good and righteous cosmetic surgery industry which heroically charges people to pursue those exact standards (a reasonable, freestanding desire uninfluenced by any systemic bias) at the risk of their lives and health

"Your rights as women are inextricably tied with the rights of other minority groups, which means your liberation is too" Sure, makes sense, but why is it that I literally never see anyone saying this about other minority groups' liberation movements without getting (rightfully) smacked down for trying to All Lives Matter a minority-specific issue? This literally only happens with feminism. Bffr.

Me: passionately argues with ignorant, misogyinist people who throw tantrums about feminism 'just hating men and inventing problems', I use the real ideas of feminism, statistics and real stories from real women, to prove that what they say is full bullshit

Also me 10 minutes later: sees a radfem acount talking about how the Y chromosome contains sociopathic behaviour making every men (including trans women) evil from birth, and every woman who dared to get married or give birth betrayed women, with hundreds in the comments praising 4B

🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

(I haven’t even talked about the homophobia in this fucking thing-)

It GETS me that Whipping Girl is THE book people recommend me to understand Trans feminism and Trans Misogyny. In one breath it’ll bring up how the female body is treated as taboo to the point where the clitoris is viewed as a fucking myth and the next it’ll argue that no oppression happens on the basis of sex. It claims men oppress women because they’re just oh so scared to embrace femininity and if they were allowed to they would embrace women with open arms. It makes homophobic ‘I only see people’s inner essence in their eyes not their genitalia UwU anyone who cares about genitalia during sex is just shallow and phobic’ arguments. I would recommend it to Radfems because every crap tra argument you’ve had comes from this fucking book, but I don’t think it’d change anyone who isn’t already jumping on the concept that males are the biggest victims of patriarchy.

See I think a portion of NLTOG thoughts are an attempt to keep a sense of self while being denied humanity. 'You're not like us! You're weird, you're a freak, we don't want you around unfeminine girl!' 'You're right. I'm not like you, I'm better' 'Wait, no you were supposed to maintain a sense of sisterhood with us despite our bullying and either learn to conform to feminine beauty standards and interests or to loathe yourself for your inability and/or lack of desire to be 'normal.''

It really speaks to the continued expectation of women’s emotional labour and physical sacrifice that women were/are expected to allow men who wear dresses into their spaces before men were ever expected to maybe not harass and maybe even accommodate gender non conforming men

What the actual FUCK.

I struggle to throw myself into traditional black power spaces not just because they are either unrealistic or overly confident in the power of assimilation. But because in a lot of instances, one of the most core issues is not being properly addressed or solved: the safety and prosperity of black womyn.

Too many times, these groups want to reestablish conservative control of womyn (stay home, have babies, "the black family," stop "acting like a man",) but just hang a pan african flag on them. Never mind that in so many instances, the first man to hurt a black womyn is a black man. Be that in parental neglect, sexual abuse, public degradation, and the ever popular sport of comparing black womyn to other races of womyn. You want this "black family" to preserve the black culture in the U.S. and want to restructure the very framework of the U.S. (which, yes, good) but don't want to chide and punish the men in the movement who are able to commit violence of varying forms against black womyn without much more than a "be better, my brother" or telling his victims to forgive.

I'll get more into traditional black power groups when the black men start whoopin the asses of the other black men abusing their "black queens." But until then, the only black power movements I'm interested in are the ones led by and, at this point, entirely composed of black womyn.
