This Will Sound Really Harsh, But I Have A Hard Time Empathising With People Who Are Mentally Ill And

"You can't blame that woman for what she did, she was conditioned to behave that way by the patriarchy!" (Radfems whenever they arbitrarily decide to remove agency from certain women and not others.)

Why does that matter? Nearly everything we think is a result of conditioning.

Our conditioning determines whether we stuff ourselves past the point of hunger because there's still food on our plate, and we were taught it's wrong to ever waste it.

Or if we think it's okay for parents to belt their children as a form of punishment, or for a husband to apply "domestic discipline" to keep his wife in line.

Or if we believe elders deserve a heightened level of respect.

Or if we think homosexuality is a sin based on what religion we were brought up in.

We are initially handed all of our beliefs by someone else, and when we reach the age of reason we are responsible for choosing for ourselves whether they're correct or not. Hear me, hypocrites: 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘭 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘰𝘳 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘧𝘪𝘤 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮 𝘰𝘧 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘮𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘨, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘦𝘴 𝘯𝘰 𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘭 𝘱𝘢𝘴𝘴!

Would you give your homophobic boomer neighbor a pass for their beliefs? Why not? They're only acting from their conditioning, and that makes them blameless for what they continue to believe, correct?

If a parent dragged their kids to church and terrorized them with the threat of hellfire and damnation if they didn't get right with God, you wouldn't blame them according to your principles, right? They're only repeating what their parents said, who repeated what their parents said, and so on. Why would you expect them to think for themselves and break the cycle when you don't expect the same from women?

Or is it that you're actually just a walking stereotype of the way women are supposedly allergic to reason, logic, and accountability, because the only people who you believe aren't responsible for overcoming their conditioning are women?

👆 Radfems embody this stereotype, and CLEARLY that doesn't embarrass them, but it does embarrass me and other women who try to apply our principles consistently. That's why I distanced myself. We are not the same.

The transition a large swathe of people have made from "this cause is righteous therefore it is would just of me to support it" to what we have now which is "I am just therefore any cause I support is righteous " has done irreparable damage to online discourse, and frankly it's dones irreparable damage to people's ability to critically think or discuss literally anything

A lot of animals don't breed when the conditions will be unfavourable to the baby. Some human pregnancies I see these days, I'm just like wow rodents beat you at thinking......

I don't know why people get so defensive and morally superior when you point out the nature of human relationships is transactional. I'm not denying or diminishing your "love", I'm just pointing something out.

parents are an extremist movement that cannot be reasoned with

tumblr is like a pseudo afterlife because everyone on here was supposed to kill themselves a long time ago

lack of accountability is our biggest issue these days. we don't move past the guilt, we don't ground ourselves in our free will, we don't let ourselves be moved. we just feel guilty, suppress it, numb it, talk ourselves out of it. and continue in the same old ways we deep down know are wrong. but you are not a victim of your guilt, your guilt is merely a sign.

Every time the word “Islamophobia” is muttered an angel loses its wings

Why are we defending abrahamic Religons still??

Why are we defending a religion that takes away women’s rights to speak?
