The world is such a joke. These people are crying over empty ambulances that got burned down in London while not a week ago Israeli soldiers used ambulances to ambush a village in Lebanon and massacred 41 civilians

Did you know nonbinary people who were afab and nonbinary people who were amab can have the same genders

Kind of the fucking idea that nonbinary people aren't their assigned sexes, innit

Enforcing the idea that nonbinary people are cisgender women wearing jeans is directly harmful not only in that it's invalidating to nonbinary people afab but because it makes people who were amab think they can't be nonbinary at all, or at least not in the same way as people afab. Which is so fucking disheartening to see. This is not to deny the unique challenges of transfeminized nonbinary people but to draw attention to them; this phenomenon is an effect of transmisogyny

Hey this addition is pretty important context for what I mean btw. Reblog my transfeminism, they

i hate being an Astrology And Tarot Is Fun girly because they're fun to me like a game. im playing with my tuoys. they're like rolling colorful dice. and then i make a joke and either a cishet guy spends 15 minutes telling me it's not real in the most condescending tone of voice imaginable (curious how the girlies at least joke along to see if im serious instead of doing that shit) or someone who actually believes in all that starts trying to talk to me in all seriousness. im in trenches of my own making and all i see beyond them are deep and dark woods.

there’s this thing that happens on this website that’s like the opposite of pissing on the poor and is far better but also still somewhat annoying when you post something where the point is implied and then someone else adds the point you were making in a reblog as though they are like, adding something new and insightful to the post. eg you can post something about a female scientist from the 1800s having her intellect undervalued in her time and someone else is going to add like “that’s so crazy… i think they were treating her this way due to misogyny” and like well yes. i mean… yeah. you got it

queer imperialist yankees have done irrepairable damage to the global lgbtq movement its insane

Lowkenuinely one of my most baffling moments doing a degree in bourgeois shitfuckery, aka International Relations, was attending a study unit titled “Democracy, Autocracy, and the World Order" where the lecturer lucidly described how the promotion of “democracy” by the United States and the West serves to open up new markets for imperial exploitation by the US because American capitalism has a constant need to expand or perish, leading most of the global periphery to be locked into systems of global dependency. But when I suggested that maybe countries should militantly defend their domestic economies from this forced subordination through central planning, she said, “but that’s authoritarianism”

if you say stuff like "White Latinos / White Russians should all be killed" you are racist it doesn't matter how many privilege modifiers you put there

You aren't a black / indigenous / brown Latin American or Russian living in one of those places you're some imperialist citizen living in a place that oppresses all periphery. no matter your other marginalizations, you hold privilege over people from imperialized nations, and hold the capability to be xenophobic / racist / orientalist towards other nations. it is basic intersectionality 101, you can be oppressed in some way but privileged in other. and ironically this aggression towards "white" imperialized people is often directed at non white imperialized people! such a blatant excuse to be racist but try to get away with it because you said "white"

drugs. alcohol. smoking. they gotta make a secret fourth thing i can do every day with no consequences

"You only hate small businesses/small business owners because you don't know any in real life" I promise you that knowing small business owners and being hired by small businesses is one of the leading causes of people hating small businesses with a passion.

Working for a small business will make the average person go from "they're so important for the economy and we need to support them" to "I am a victim of wage theft" real quick
