Nuanced Takes On Radblr Are Like “let’s All Just Do Nothing Then Cry About It” Lol

I just can't get behind this mindset that adult women, some of whom are ultra-rich and educated, are victims of their own choices - such as walking around naked in public, or choosing to do some other degrading thing they weren't forced into (and were paid very well to do, hence why they did it.) Women are not pieces of hay floating helplessly hither and thither by whatever new "breeze" of influence comes upon them. Sometimes a woman making a bad choice is just a woman making a bad choice without any coersion, and she knows exactly what she's doing and why.

I don't care if you want to refrain from judging them for their decisions, but you should seriously question why you think they're not capable of consciously choosing them, or why you think those decisions can't be criticized for the standard they're upholding for other women. Because if you think women have no real agency, then feminism is pointless and you may as well let the men (the people you DO think can make decisions and who you hold responsible for them) do your thinking for you.

one of the most frustrating things about the neil gaiman situation (and others like it) is people who were fans immediately moving to a different person to idolise ('well, at least we still have x author' or 'please tell me y author is still a good person') and in this situation specifically, 'terry pratchett would be furious'. no!!! you do not know!!!you have no idea whether terry pratchett or any author you like was/is a predator! you cannot take a situation in which a man's public persona as a feminist and supporter of women allowed him to prey on vulnerable women without suspicion and then look at all the other men who portray themselves as good people and say 'well, these ones are still okay though.' just stop idolising celebrities!!!!!!!

people on here will make having "nasty kinky queer faggot degenerate hot gay sex" their whole personality and the "sex" in question is just. penis in vagina.

parents are an extremist movement that cannot be reasoned with

do not give me a love confession note man i will straight up roll that shit into a joint. i am not kidding. fuck your feelings for me i am smoking that shit

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?

Is having a son really worth the risk? I don’t think so. Go 4B, don’t contribute to the cycle of suffering, be unwilling to birth an oppressor or a victim. We don’t need any more babies in this world, whether they be boys or girls.

You're not a dumbass if you like gossip and drama. Men created this myth so that women don't form friendships with each other, they called them stupid for talking to each other. Because if you can't gossip you won't tell your friends about how your husband treats you.

Being interested in people and social things and drama and arguments and all these things comes free with being a social species. Enjoy them all you want, it's neither stupid nor immoral.

Leftism is a rotten ideology thats been spoiling ever since Marx and Engels started writing books, leftism is nothing more than the idolization of old white men and the worshipping of long dead totalitarian regimes. There will be no international proletarian revolution, reading theory is not praxis, your leftcom book club will not make any new ground breaking theories, and your marxist newspaper will not spark revolution. We fight here and now with no end goal of some communist utopia. We live in the moment and our communes are not planned nor are they preparing for the future. They simply are, they are autonomous unions of mutual association and work towards no goal other than their own self interest. Communization or anarcho nihilism or insurrectionary egoism or whatever you want to call it is far more practical and realistic than leftism. Break Bones and Love Freely.

disturbing parallels i've seen with tras and christianity (as an ex christian)

x is true because x is true!

christians: the bible says it's real because the bible says it's true!

tras: transgender individuals are: (the gender they identify with) because they say they are the gender they identify with!

we don't understand how x works

christians: god works in mysterious ways

tras: only people can define the gender they are. (only women know what women are)

ostracization from the community

christians: so and so is an atheist/gay. is walking down a worldly path. we can't associate with them anymore .

tras: TERF! THIS PERSON IS A TERF! BLOCK THEM!

demanding access into places

christian's: we demand that creationism be taught in public school. that the 10 commandments be showcased in every school!

tras: trans women deserve to be in women's sports! trans women deserve to be in locker rooms! trans women deserve to be in female only spaces!!

strict gender roles

christian's: a woman must be submissive, feminine, present herself in a way that is pleasing to god, and must present herself as non aggressive, gentle, be focused on her husband and children

tras: if a person identifies as a woman they MUST be submissive! they must be emotional! they're very soft spoken and passive, and love being soft, and have a gender non conforming/feminine fashion so they MUST be a woman!

persecution complex:

atheist: i believe you have the right to practice your religion but i have a problem with...

christians: WE'RE THE MOST PERSECUTED MINORITY! WE'RE BEING SILENCED INTO NOT SHARING OUR FAITH! THIS PERSECUTION MEANS GOD IS COMING! THE END IS NEAR THE RAPTURE IS HAPPENING!

radfem: if you'd like to dress in a gender non conforming way, then fine. but i have a problem with...

tras: WE'RE IN STAGE 7 OF GENOCIDE! WE'RE BEING DIVIDED AS A COMMUNITY! OUR OWN KIN IS TURNING AGAINST US! THIS IS WHY SUICIDE RATES ARE SO HIGH!!!

if you are x then you are x

christian's: you need the faith the size of a mustard seed to be a Christian.

tras: if you even think you're trans than you're trans

flipping the script once you're in the group

christian's: well actually women need to be pure for their husbands, follow traditional gender roles, reject who they are to be worthy in gods eyes and instill this belief that you are an inherently unloveable person!

tras: you're trans? oh wait, now you can go through years of hormone therapy treatment! you can start voice training to be perceived as the gender you've chosen! then if you feel comfortable you can have surgeries to look your identity!
