Twilight and her mini evil clone In a couple of hours. I was bored
on a more serious note, I fucking hate how everytime I try to talk about the fact that transmascs are particularly vulnerable to radicalization efforts by terfs (which yes, does often result in at least partial detransition) people interpret it as if I'm celebrating that fact. believe it or not I actually think its a pretty insidious threat to our community, and I don't know how you expect to combat it without being honest about the part regressive rhetoric and bad actors play in all this
saying trans men are gonna detransiton into terfs is an interesting take ill give you that
bold of you to assume they have to detransition to be a terf

if you're looking for further antipsych readings, i heavily recommend bruce cohen's psychiatric hegemony: a marxist theory of mental illness.
it would be one of the published academic books on the topic of psychiatry i would have the least amount of caveats for - together with anne harrington's mind fixers: psychiatry's troubled search for the biology of mental illness.
if you are already convinced that psychiatry, together with other sciences, evolved alongside capitalist development to serve bourgeois interests, ensure social control and legitimize the hegemonic world order - and that no amount of intradisciplinary reform can change this, short of total abolition - then you will likely not be learning much from this book. it does however lay the arguments very clearly, together with concise, clearly explained marxist theory about labor. it then goes on to tie psychiatry with other hegemonic structures - the family, most notably.
interestingly enough, it manages to completely avoid two of the most common pitfalls of this kind of text: it never places the issue with the use of drugs themselves, but with forced medication and lack of available information - and it never blames capitalism itself for the coercive and punishing character of psychiatry, inventing a precapitalistic mythical past where crazy people were fine.
a solid recommendation if you are trying to give an introduction to antipsychiatry concepts to someone!

crazy how kim kitsuragi has such powerful gay swag that it makes the fan base collectively forget that one of his main character traits is being a massive centrist lol

Severance is crazyyyy they shouldn't be doing all that. They shouldn't be doing that stuff
yes yes you're all very clever detectives but it's actually a reference to this meme that apparently never made it to tumblr. anyways there's much better evidence out there to suggest transmascs are being radicalized towards terf ideology or even detransitioning, and pretending that it doesn't happen ensures it's going to keep happening
I spend hours scrolling through blogs to establish a link between transandrophobia theory and terfism...and...he just...tweeted it out
