So, actual antisemitism like blood libel and saying Jews control the banks/government/media/space lasers isn't going to be included in the bill to "stop antisemitism"
But any critism of Israel is, including if that criticism is made by a Jewish person.
I wonder if - and hear me out here - it was never actually about antisemitism! Weird! Almost like that's what we've been saying along!

it’s just this recent wave of “all sexual expression is good even the problematic ones!” is crazy to me like we used to be mad about the song Blurred Lines and call it blatant expression of misogyny and rape apologia, even though it’s art. like i think it’s fine to call shallow misogynist art shallow and misogynist and i think it’s fine to deplatform it

Its not whataboutism to notice when you don't mind that palestinian children are killed in the most horrendous ways imaginable and their bodies disrespected but go into philosophics about how israeli childrens' bodies are "disrespected" because they were put into coffins (????) You literally do not care that we have been seeing nightmarish images of Palestinian children being killed for more than a year and it's not even subtle you genuinely do not mind seeing those images because otherwise it would have changed your entire world view.

rap has probably been the most consistently popular and influential genre of music for the past 40+ years but your average person on tumblr is less willing to listen to it than a random white teenage boy in the suburbs or a 4channer who lurks on /mu/ every once in a while

i'll reblog resources and info on how trump's fucking us over of course but it really is so telling that a lot of these people weren't posting the same things when biden was president. instead we were getting all these long posts about how he was great and progressive and Doing His Best. like we all conveniently forgot he was the one who stopped hospitals from honestly reporting COVID death numbers and let dozens of transphobic bills pass and let roe v wade get shredded and pursued oil pipelines and endorsed cop city and deported more people than trump and let boeing get away with openly assassinating a guy and enthusiastically funded palestinian genocide and

my pitch to avoid transphobic language is, as always, to avoid euphemism.
"(coercive) assigned sex at birth" is not a euphemism, it is an accurate description of a literal process that includes a social, legal, and all too frequently medical component. it is legal assignment into a sex class. it describes something done to us. it is something done to every single person who has any official birth documentation.
when you use it as a euphemism to imply any specific trait (e.g. "AMAB" to imply "has a clitoris/penis capable of penetration" or "AFAB" to imply "has a uterus capable of gestation") this is a transphobic assertion. it is equating the particulars of the body with one's assignment, which is functionally how cissexism works. the point is to obscure the legal/economic reality of assignment into a class through suggestion that it is merely descriptive of bodies.
assignment does not describe bodies. it is used to determine what forms of medical abuse someone is subject to, what medical care and bodily modifications a person can legally pursue and economically access, with what required documentation and formal surveillance. in this way, it can describe what traits one is punished for having, what legal restrictions to bodily autonomy one must navigate around, but it does not describe what traits one has.
if you find yourself searching for a term to euphemistically suggest a sexed trait (whether a genital configuration, a gestational capacity, a hormone ratio, an amount of breast tissue, etc.) without having to say it outright, whatever you reach for will likely end up reifying sexgender (which is the construct that creates intersex and transgender/transsexual subjectivities). there is no non-transphobic way to use euphemism to avoid talking about the particulars.
and you can tell people use these terms euphemistically, because they will complain at terminology like "TMA"/"TME" by stating that it "describes genitals" or is "demanding to know one's birth sex." To say someone is transmisogyny affected (structurally, legally, socially, economically) is a relationship to a particular mode of oppression. Same with saying someone is transmisogyny exempt. It describes a relationship to structural power. It literally does not suggest anything about one's physical traits at all.
now, because of how transmisogyny operates materially, it is a result of the sex assignment process, and the enforcement of that assignment. so trying to define TMA without respect to CASAB essentially attempts to redefine transmisogyny away from its material analysis of how it operates. however, TME has no direct relationship to CASAB-- perisex cis men, perisex cis women, intersex cis men, intersex cis women, perisex trans men, intersex trans men, some perisex nonbinary people, some intersex nonbinary people, etc. are all TME. it's a relationship to a particular power structure, not a physical descriptor.
if you want to avoid transphobia, then make a practice of thinking through what you're actually talking about (a practice? documentation? physical traits? a relationship to power? someone's gender?) and then talk about it with specificity.
and if you discover that talking about it specifically would be inappropriate (e.g. you wanted to ask if someone "is AFAB" but your actual question is "do you have a penis?" and you don't want to ask them that because you're in a context where you aren't in a sexual encounter and this information is not necessary) then do not say it. using a euphemism would not make that question any less inappropriate, it would just layer transphobia on transphobia.

This is the money which was raised in a day for Ao3. This is the spare income contributed by a collective of people to fanfic site, so that they can be a board member. $130k USD and I am sure a good chunk of it came from tumblr users too, cause of the way we lose our minds on here when ao3 is down.
