Feminists and misogynists both want to stop arguing about whether men or women have it worse, but the crucial different is feminists want to stop because they already know the objectively correct answer, and misogynists want it to stop because being reminded of the truth makes them uncomfortable.

the old "all trans people I know are mentally ill to some degree even if I don't believe being trans is itself a mental illness" line is a classic case of torturing you to insanity then torturing you for being insane

like do you have any idea how rude people are about all of this of course I'm insane

you truly can't have gimmicks as a transfem, huh.

like (and i know these aren't gimmick blogs but personal blogs with a particular focus), i-suggest-forcefem? plagiarized endlessly by tmras. yay-bunnies? plagiarized endlessly by tmras. they want our product but not us. tho like even blogs with pretty much zero gimmicks have impersonators, like sailatina for example.

of course only the original transfems are banned

checks out. our job is to generate "queer culture" for free and then get swapped out if we're considered uppity about anything

I just think its gross how transandrobro chuds hold on to their agab so hard. Its sad for them, and it's uncomfortable what they are implying about trans women by doing this.

The chud ideology is based on considering themselves afab before they are male. And tgirls amab before we're women. It's simply a terf belief system.

people on here who have been on 10-15+ years like myself...i don't know how they claim that there were never any Black bloggers on here, or that it was always such a white website. trudy gradientlair was on here. thisiswhiteprivilege was on here. there was a feminist citation project sara ahmed was involved in on here. there was someone on here whose username was wretchedoftheearth and that was how i learned who fanon was when i was 12, by googling those words. tumblr was the only place i knew i could go to get accurate & compassionate info about what happened to trayvon martin, when everyone around me irl was rabidly racist. the amount of reportage and scholarship that happened on here before the first big wave of bans was so huge and so much has been lost. where were you when it was happening??? why weren't you paying attention??

it's cause they never engaged with non white bloggers so they never noticed them disappearing. they got the tumblr they wanted, and those of us who aren't liberal/conservative fandom bloggers were robbed of our black and brown friends, and worst of all black and brown bloggers were robbed of a dpace that once was a legitimate vector for talking about black issues. at least some members of staff know what they are doing, it's like the war on drugs in this website the way they crush black people on this website.

I think about The Man of the Hole so often. 27 years alone. 27 years with no one to speak to but strangers to wave to. Survived a genocide, a massacre that killed everyone he had ever known and later, an assassination attempt. He still tried to warn researches about the traps he built. He was only about 60 when he died in 2022. The people who tormented him in life later desecrated his grave.

I do think it is important to share the stories of the Lone Woman of San Nicolas Island and Ishi and the countless other indigenous people who experienced the profound trauma of being the last survivor but it is important to remember that the last Aboriginal families in Australia to be contacted by Europeans were resettled in the 1980s and the Indian government has proposed a plan that will mean total genocide for the Shompen people. The total eradication of indigenous peoples, their cultures, their languages, their ways of life, is not something which occurred in a distant ugly past but an ongoing process.

Can I still be a leftist if I’m a reactionary conservative

Amnesty International backing down (hiding its report) when threatened with JKR's lawsuits just shows how weak the liberal human rights framework really is. It never seems to flinch when governments criticize it, but the moment an influential Westerner pushes back, it suddenly loses its nerve.

once you notice half of all memes are just a picture of a black person with unrelated text over them you really cannot unsee it

(spent too long on Tumblr voice) actually the status quo is okay! It's okay to be the status quo! you don't have to be anything besides the status quo! #statusquoaffirmation #statusquosafe
