Tumblr @testosteronebutchI get so frustrated when I see fellow sapphics saying that womanhood is necessarily constricting to us. Like, womanhood is so diverse and doesn’t have to be limited by the gender roles pushed on us by a heteronormative society. My butchness and masculinity don’t mean I can’t be a woman, even if I experience […]
This is a really good framing for how to treat fascists, including so-called “reformed fascists” So often centrists, but also white “united front” leftists, allocate all their empathy to the fascist because they think “what if I had gone down that path?” In so doing they reveal that, whatever their rhetoric, they think politics is […]
Tumblr @doberbuttsI had the cops called on me once (on TDoV lmao) because I was in a field with Creed offleash tweaking our heeling. The woman who reported us said that there was a “black man with an aggressive dog” and that we were scaring her. There was no one in the field with us […]
Construction is not more valuable than destruction when what’s being built is a concentration camp; the maintenance of a prison factory is not a neutral act just because it preserves the status quo. When colonized and enslaved people set fires to homes of their overseers, broke the equipment for mining or sugar processing, and killed […]
Criticism of Satanism and Satanists tends to fall into one of only two types. The first and most common generally is just right-wing reactionary paranoia; it’s typical antisemitic tropes dressed up in horns, a tail, and handed a pitchfork to be able to be shouted openly with only people in-the-know understanding the implicit Judenhass. But […]
This goes back to “perspective” in fiction (and history), and why it is structurally impossible to tell an anti-war film from the perspective of a soldier who is blowing things up in battle; why it’s not really a subversion or critique to have an antihero who does horrible things be a protagonist; why you cannot […]
One of the things you notice about white evangelical Christians in particular is that they truly and sincerely believe themselves to always be martyrs and under siege, no matter how much power they actually wield in society. These Christians are also extraordinarily fond of appropriating Jewishness and its status as an actual persecuted minority religion […]
Are you visiting your family and aren’t sure how to talk to them about what’s going on in your life? You’re in luck. Now you can come out to your parents as a queer satanic antifascist and help us keep paying our lawyers. All at once. Everyone wins! (Except the fascists,)
The problem isn’t intelligence; the problem isn’t even ignorance or education. Ben Shapiro knows about vaccines. He knows how they work and that they’re effective. But, whether his current Covid-19 stance is pure grift or partially sincere irrelevant. His politics have led him to a place where he has to oppose people “being forced” to […]
We’re only sharing this so you can check for yourself that it’s a real tweet. For the right wing, it really doesn’t matter what hypocrisy you point out, what you parody, what you criticize. They are immune because their reality is already absurd enough and they do not care: they care about power. Jordan Peterson […]
