has anyone noticed the new meta for people being accused of bigotry (esp white people being accused of racism) is to claim they're receiving harassment (often with no proof just on a "trust me" level) so the whole conversation turns into how harassment is always wrong and bringing up the bigotry that sparked it will get you accused of lolcowing
Victoria Cruz, a transgender rights advocate and Stonewall veteran, has died at the age of 79 following a battle with liver cancer.
a lot of ppl's lives were touched by victoria :( may her memory be a blessing
i have a few comments of my own regarding this, though i will largely leave this and let you all be a judge.
what i will say is: look at isff continuing to put the abuser's feelings first while not having the slightest consideration for the mental state or feelings of the victims in question.
what i will say is: look at the phrasing at the beginning. minimizing the actions by refering to abuse as simply "something bad". painting it as just some inconsequential thing.
and yes, sexually assaulting someone is a crime. putting out cigarettes on someone's arm is an act of abuse.
"as long as you lie and call sophie a liar" here she is, outright implying that sophie's victims are lying.
part of me wonders if the "you want her to be removed from her job?" is a memorized formula for her. though i would like to remind you all, this situation began with isff reblogging sophie's fundraiser for a birthday vacation trip and someone informing isff that sophie has sexually assaulted other trans women.
on the matter of personal opinion regarding all of this, i need to say: it boils my blood to see the blatant rapist and abuser apologia disguised as "protecting trans women". especially in the example when isff is throwing five other trans women under the bus to defend their abuser. it boils my blood to see isff spit in the faces of multiple fellow trans women. to see her handwave away the abuse of her sisters. to see her refering to victims and people advocating for them as "danger to the community". the comparison of her just easily calling them that, when she's fighting tooth and nail against their abuser being refered as such due to actions they committed against them.
Genuinely Why do people defend her?

Love that the "restorative justice" (the way you've all bastardized that term is honestly criminal) crowd insist their position is not about just letting rapists walk freely like nothing happened but literally all they talk about is being nice to rapists and never about giving any victims any "restoration" or "justice". Weird.
Restorative justice is meant to be a careful process of Restoring Justice TO THE VICTIMS in ways that are actually productive for the individuals involved, and a decent preventative measure for future potential harm.
IT'S NOT SIMPLE SILENCE AND INACTION.
There's been this baffling uptick in people arguing that if you're part of an oppressed demographic group, and you have done something terrible (especially if that thing is something that your specific demographic has been stereotyped for doing) then you cannot and should not be held accountable for doing that thing specifically because you are an oppressed marginalized person & that group is overrepresented in criticism or legal action for doing said thing. Some take it a step further and try to say that the thing being done "isn't bad".
Like the solution to how oppressed groups will face worse judgment & action for allegations of certain things (whether they did it or not) is not to decide that what they did was fine and everyone should be okay with it. Its not prejudice for being upset and calling out when a marginalized person does something reprehensible and is a shitty person who harms others, its only prejudiced if one ONLY cares if its a marginalized person doing those things
The thing is that rape culture is already a very huge thing that is normalized is our society, victims aren't taken seriously or believed most of the time, and the perpetrators don't face much if any legal repercussions, and obviously most of them don't try to make amends with the victim somehow & own up to their behavior or try to change. So one of the only ways they might see any affect into what they've done & how they shouldn't have done that is by social ostracization. And even THAT isn't very widespread because of said rape culture. Surprise, enacting one of the most traumatic experiences & violation of their personhood onto another person makes people not want to be around you.
People won't want to be their friend or be around them or date them or do business with them or hire them because fucking obviously they don't. Whose to say they won't be abusive or violent in a different way? How do we know they won't hurt someone else? I don't want to be friends with rapists & their apologists. But here we have some people saying we shouldn't do that either. Like. Lol.
ofcourse isff is back on her "but think of the poor rapist" bullshit.
"Canceling" was also an AAVE term that originally meant "We ain't fucking with this person anymore because they're weird with weird and questionable beliefs" and white people took it and tainted it to mean "You're trying to ruin someone's life, how dare you make someone take accountability for their actions !" like they really thought that saying "Hey this person is racist, maybe you want to think twice before giving them money and support" is a bad thing and that says a lot more about them than it does about us

tumblr users will be like it's wrong to judge people based on their words and actions
Karmelo Anthony has been found guilty by the all white jury in his court case.
nonblacks gon start taking that āracist phaseā shit more cautiously when they kids start coming back in coffins bc Black children start defending themselves more.
if that white boy didnāt have a āracist phaseā his ass would still be here š¤·š½āāļø.
Black teen protects himself in self defense from an entitled self appointed policing white teen acting belligerent and violent, 5-99 years.
Asian American adults racially profile a young Black teenager in their store, following him around in close proximity, and proceed to chase him a football fieldās yards away, leaving their store completely unattended, to shoot said child in the back when he didnāt steal anything in the first place. Gets found not guilty.
itās really giving we damned if we do and damned if we dont so if nonblacks are gonna lock us all up or put us in the ground anyway, we might as well get our licks in too, shit.
in 2021, 29 year old Ryan Le-Nguyen shot 6 year old neighbor Coby for going to retrieve his bike in front of Leās yard.
Ryan Le-Nguyen is accused of shooting an Ypsilanti Township boy last summer.
The child's father, Arnold Daniel, said his children were playing outside. He said his son Coby went to grab his bike. Daniel said Le-Nguyen came out with a sledgehammer and said something to Coby.
Daniel said he didn't know exactly what was said but knows his son said something back. After that, the neighbor went back inside and Daniel said he shot a gun through the front window, hitting Coby in the arm.
"He tried hitting me with a sledgehammer but thatās not going to work because Iām too fast. [Then he] got a gun and BOOM shot me right here," Coby said.
Ryan was sentenced to 40 months to 15 years in prison. he could possibly currently be out right now.
Oh.

They are on twitter trying to tell me that the clones actually aren't people and they're not human and since the narrative (erroneously) treats them as soulless meat droids then that means we should too
like folks fully arguing w their chests w me about this lmao
Coming out of my tumblr hiatus for this, I think it's really funny when people try and argue that the chips make the clones more like droids.
As if order 66 in the movie isn't the clones immediately following the order with no questions whatsoever or even verifying it or wondering who the hell this guy with a scarred face in a black robe giving them the order is.
And also like. The clones spent three years fighting with the Jedi. You're telling me they all immediately turned on and started killing the Jedi? All of them? At least all the clones serving under Jedi? Really?
It's weird how much a lot of these people want the clones to have unquestioningly and willingly committed a genocide.
See you get it.
Some people view it as a tragic yet valid ultimate act of volition in favor of their own liberation from the Jedi, but the Jedi don't own the clones. Killing the Jedi doesn't make them any less property of the Republic/Empire. And at that point, why go after the Jedi children as well? Across the series we see clones starting to question orders and struggle to rationalize things to themselves. Am I to believe that all the thinking stops?
Some people argue that the clone wars doesn't argue its point well, which fine I agree lmao. But there's also little in the way of the clones viewing the Jedi as their oppressors to the point of genocide besides the repcomm books. So where do we find that the clones collectively had enough *hatred* for the Jedi to want to off literally all of them, including all of their children, only to....continue doing the same thing they were doing before they killed the Jedi?
Yeah. Even if I agree the Jedi were still upholding the conditions the clones found themselves in, ultimately it's the Republic who has control of the slave army.
I think the only argument I've heard against the chips that I can at least understand the sentiment of was contrasting the clones to soldiers IRL and how often times, soldiers will absolutely do horrific things with little pushback, and as star wars is not at all shy about its influences from real life and it's parallels with irl politics. I can see where this person was coming from. But like. Let's use Vietnam as the obvious example. Even if a lot of the US soldiers were still drafted, I don't think it's comparable to the clones literally being raised from birth to be soldiers.
Even if I could buy that the clones grow up initially having a very gung ho I guess attitude and being taught to be patriotic to the Republic and all that, it's clear through TCW that even in the early war, the clones had their own personal feelings or thoughts about it even if the vast majority are still loyal to the Republic. And it's clear that at least the clones who served under the Jedi began to question their orders and status more and more and they clearly appreciate the Jedi as leaders, it's why Rex and Co are so surprised at Krell being the way he is because he's such a departure from other Jedi.
So like. Why would the clones just willingly immediately turn on and start massacring the Jedi? Including the children? They're just really gonna turn on the people they've fought alongside for three years and not at all question why they're being asked to kill them?
They are on twitter trying to tell me that the clones actually aren't people and they're not human and since the narrative (erroneously) treats them as soulless meat droids then that means we should too
