    So many cis feminists (especially whiteys) do not actually oppose oppression—they just oppose oppression that goes after them specifically.

    I can tell by how these clowns act like trans women being respected and having rights is somehow mutually exclusive with cis women being respected and having rights.

    Little do they realize, transphobia and essentialism are tools of patriarchy, not tools against it, and these things hurt cis women too, but even if they didn’t, it wouldn’t excuse this transphobic bullshit, obviously.

    This is the same dumbass that transvestigated the new Women’s March logo together with other TERFs and claimed that the face in front must be that of a “man”.

    Ironically, it turned out that her own face had the exact same shape. But instead of, you know, accepting that her obsession with trans women and phrenology has gone little bit too far, she just quietly deleted her tweets and acted like nothing ever happened.

    And yet, even after pulling such an embarrassing stunt, she still has the chutzpe to write this shit.

    On some level this person clearly understands trans women are a marginalized minority, because in what other situations do people go into a political battle with enough entitlement to believe the other party will just agree you’re right and go home when you’re bored with the argument?

      They have no conception of how intolerable conditions actually are for the people they’re arguing with. This doesn’t absolve them - the ignorance is willful.

    TERFs are trapped in a prison of their own making. THEY started this online culture war on trans people, THEY obsess over trans people just existing. I wish these people would all be rounded up and thrown in a gulag. Fucking hell.

    A mistake many neoliberals make is to assume that when they decided to believe in stagnation and the absence of change, that the rest of us came to the same conclusion. We won’t take no for an answer, correct, because we actually believe in justice and not stopping until it has been won.

    We have one group of people demanding that women hand over their legal existence, their rights, their language, their analysis, and their political movement.

    The ability to think that trans women are the ones taking these things away from cis women, and not a group of women who this person is literally arguing should lose all of those things she’s so anxious to cling onto for herself, is evidence that transphobes don’t share the same reality with the rest of us.

    Also I’m pretty sure I got into an argument with this person when I still had twitter and she claimed that reproductive organs were “evolutionarily designed” to produce certain gametes, even if they developed in such a way that they couldn’t actually produce any. I should stop letting these fucking idiots occupy any space in my brain

    Without knowing who this person is, this reads extremely pro-trans

    the trans rights movement has no intention of taking no for an answer

    YOU’RE GODDAMN RIGHT

    We have one group of people demanding that women hand over their legal existence, their rights, their language, their analysis, and their political movement.

    Yeah, fuck those people! Trans woman shouldn’t have to deal with that shit!

    We have another group of people saying no.

    “No. Leave trans women alone.”

    If you think that the end of this should come by unrelentingly pressuring those people’s ‘no’ until they submit, you are in the domination business. It’s that simple.

    Hell yeah, fuck em up

    feminism’s prime directive is resisting male dominance

    I mean… She obviously means “patriarchy” and not “male dominance,” so hell yeah! Gender essentialism serves the patriarchy and must be resisted!!!
