#anti radical feminism

[tomboymikayla]

Imagine making a 4 hour video explaining why a fucking LEGO show for boys is misogynistic, I guarantee you a LEGO show is not harming women

These tweets summarize my thoughts perfectly

Feminism is never and has never been about hating men by the way.

Don’t call yourself a feminist if you dismiss victims of SA or abuse just because they’re men whose abusers are women.

Feminism has always, always had a history with Racism and White Supremacy - particularly in a way that promotes fascist leaning "Protection for Me and Mine" type "activism".

There have always been several Upper Class, White, Women at the helm of Feminist movements and it is something Poor, Working Class, Women of Color have been vocally criticizing since the First Wave.

I mean, US Americans, did you not learn about Sojourner Truth? Have you not read "Ain't I A Woman?"? It is one of the most famous early accounts of the racialized nature of gender. It perfectly highlights the way the social aspects of gender have always been barred from People of Color in a way they aren't barred from White People in a firsthand historical account.

Women's Suffrage, and subsequently the First Wave of Feminism was an actively Racially Segregated movement. White Suffragettes intentionally campaigned for themselves and themselves only because they thought that campaigning for Black, Immigrant, and Indigenous Women would undermine their own movement. They did not seek liberation for women, they sought the Systemic, Institutional Power of their White Male Peers and they got it - by intentionally leaving Women of Color behind them.

This is most evident in the fact that White Women received the right to vote in 1920, but Black Women did not receive the right to vote until 1965 with the Voting Rights Act. Almost 50 years later. That is over half a lifetime. This was also only approximately 2-3 years before Radical Feminism and the Second Wave began around 1967~1968.

If you think racial segregation and racism in the Feminist Movement ended with Black Women's suffrage and completely dissipated within the two years it took for the Second Wave to pick up it's feet, you are naïve at best and actively racist yourself at worst. The Women's Liberation Movement / Radical Feminism have always been White Woman's movements riding the coattails of the Suffragette's racism.

Look at the website for the Women's Liberation Front. WoLF is one of the original Radical Feminist organizations. It was founded in the late 60's and is one of the largest Radfem organizations to date. Now. Look at their board. Look at the photos of women they choose to include across their site. Look at the women who are speaking at their events. Beyond one or two token Black Women, it is a sea of Whiteness.

You know who is a special advisor to WoLF and the founder of the group "Standing for Women"? Kellie-Jay Keen-Minshull, aka Posie Parker. Kellie-Jay is the woman who popularized "Woman means adult human female" as an anti-trans slogan. Kellie-Jay is also real good buddies with - you guessed it! Neo-Nazis and White Supremacists!

WoLF also takes money from the Alliance Defending Freedom, (ADF) a Right Wing Christian Organization, and it's members have worked directly with the Heritage Foundation, a Conservative organization founded during the Reagan Presidency.

Radical Feminism as a political movement cares about the lives and held power of White Women under the guise of "Women's Liberation" in the exact same way as their foremothers, the Suffragettes. It's a foundationally White Supremacist movement. Black Feminists, Indigenous Feminists, Immigrant Feminists, and Colonized Feminists have been talking about this for over a century but it falls on White ears so why would they listen.

"t4t is transfem only"

"transmascs cant talk about passing"

"transmascs are invading trans spaces"*

next thing you know the tirfs are gonna say transmascs aren't even allowed to call themselves trans! dont fall for it! the goal posts of 'appropriate' transmasc behavior in the eyes of tirfs have not stopped moving and will not stop until they are dead or detransitioned. we are all trans, that's enough.

*all real takes i have seen from tirfs

how to avoid becoming/getting back into any harmful community

go offline (seriously. Online is not necessary)

block tags and block people. (Your online safety does not have to cater to others I promise)

Follow unrelated tags to drown it out (like art tags, Uhm… gardening?)

Get hobbies (seriously, distract yourself if possible!)

anyone else feel free to add on (or don’t idc)

Also: things like discourse can be addictive and detrimental to one’s health, remember to put yourself first!

uhm… this is probably not gonna get much traction but this is also kind of a me thing so yea :3

[sage-writes-n-coins-mogai]

Every time I doomscroll the terf tags I become more and more convinced that some of them are just the female equivalent to an incel especially when pull up their weird as jargon like “moid” which is literally the guy version of “foid” which is a word that incels always use when talking about women. That or “female” which again is what some TERFs do, they call AFABs strictly as females and AMABS as males and it’s so fucking weird…

"why am I blocked by a random acc" probs either you're hateful to a community they're in or that community is in your dni

Reblog to take the genderqueer colors back from the terfs/radfems

Like to give a "fuck you" to terfs/radfems

[fixing-bad-posts]

i was a radfem but now I am 32 I am really smart I guess I wasn't really meant to be a radfem

[ftmtftm]

The "liberated radfem future" is genocide. It's genocide. It's the eradication of "the male sex". It's the eradication of men for the sake of an all women all "female" utopia.

That's not an exaggeration. It is the very foundational core of radical feminist politics going back to its formation in the late 1960's/early 1970's New York Feminist scene. It's documented. You can go back and read the theory and manifestos from '67, '68, and '69.

Future radfems built off that theory and some have tried to obscure it, but it's always been there and will always be there. It can't be gotten rid of because it is a cornerstone of the ideology.

Radical Feminism is not safe. It will never be safe. It is a politically extreme hate ideology and always has been. You can gain a lot by learning about it to protect yourself from it's bigotry, but you will gain nothing from believing in it.

When I call out radical feminism, TERFs, and Gender Criticals for being fascist, it is not the same thing as "hating on feminists". I am a feminist - I'm just not a radical feminist. Radical feminism is not the entirety of feminism. There are other branches of feminism. Y'all do not represent all of us.

Sawing off the rotten branch of radical feminism from the tree of feminism is not "violence against women". It's an act of survival.

And if you're a radical feminist and not a fascist, bioessentialist transphobe, and you think you can save your movement from the rotting branches attached to it, my advice is to start sawing. Prove your movement is worth saving.

How to save radical feminism: Openly and loudly ally yourself with trans people. Stop being anti-male and anti-masculinity - because it's feeding your transphobia and bioessentialism. Stop policing consensual sex you don't personally like (like kink and sex work). Denounce people like JKR. Call out the bioessentialism, bigotry, racism, sexism, misogyny, and antisemitism in your ranks.

I know some of you are going to say "but OP, that's everything radical feminism is about! If we don't hate sex workers and trans people, what will we do?"

Well, if you stop being anti-everything, you might actually be able to be pro-something, and contribute to making the world a better place.

Cause right now? You're poisoning all of us.

If you're finding that your only allies in the political field are conservatives, and progressives are routinely calling you a hate group, and there are literal NAZIs marching in support of your cause and members of your group are reciting NAZI quotes at your rallies, and if you see members of your group claiming there's a "Jewish conspiracy" behind the people you hate,

then uh

You might wanna question what has happened to your cause. Regardless of where you started, even if it was far to the left, you're now steeped in fascism.

You're rotting from the inside out. Do something about it.

So I was watching a video about a trans man today and :

And I find this so hilarious because the replies under this comment :

And then so many other comments like this..

And I didn't even have to scroll too far down. These are all top comments.

And I also saw love from men (cis men too, contrary too popular belief), love from women and hate from men too. I really do not understand people's weird obsession with turning everything into a gender war, even when the evidence are against their agenda.

Do they really not see, how they are also not different from the terfs who write these things?

Radical feminists are against rape until it happens to trans people

[littletissueghosts]

Transmasc Person: "I am a straight guy, since I am a guy who loves women."

Toxic Queer People™: "Ew, straight guys are all predators, since only non-queer people are straight! Anyways, discrimination against straight men isn't real, even when they're a minority."

Transmasc Person: "Okay, I am a lesbian, since even if I'm not a woman, I still have a connection to womanhood."

Toxic Queer People™: "Lesbian is woman-only! If you are in any way a man or not a woman, you are not a lesbian! Transmascs can never be lesbians or have a connection to womanhood/a lack of manhood! Stop invading the lesbian community!"

I dare you to make it make sense.
