I think when you correctly identify a trauma that is the base of a woe of yours it should just disappear. It should be like "aaahh. you got me" and vanish and leave 100 dollars behind

in order to unlearn racism u have to be willing to accept that u are racist. it’s not a bad thing to want to change for the better. it’s not a bad thing to say hey, the way i’ve been acting is racist and i don’t want to be racist anymore. when people of color are telling u ways in which u have been racist, it’s actually not cool to brush it off and say, well i didn’t mean it that way.. u actually have to make an effort to stop doing those things if u want to be able to actually say ur anti-racist. u can’t just say ur not racist because u don’t wanna be seen as racist. that’s not how unlearning racism works.

"Trans rights!" until the trans person is a little too loud. Then they should sit down and be quiet. "Trans rights!" until their neurodivergence rubs you the wrong way. Then they're annoying and you can disrespect them as much as you want. "Trans rights!" until they talk about being trans. Then they're "making it their whole personality". "Trans rights!" until the trans person presents as hyperfem, hypermasc, or deliberately androgynous. Then they're trying too hard.

"Trans rights!" until the trans man looks like anything other than a twink. Then you find him intimidating. "Trans rights!" until the trans woman has visible facial hair, or muscles, or short hair. Then she's "not trying hard enough to be a woman". "Trans rights!" until the non-binary person asks you to stop asking about their assigned gender at birth. Then they're too sensitive. "Trans rights!" until a trans person has a disability. Then they're "too much of a burden for you to handle". "Trans rights!" until a trans person talks about not experiencing dysphoria. Then they don't fit in and aren't a "real" trans person. "Trans rights!" until a trans person uses any pronoun other than she, he, or maybe they (if you're feeling particularly tolerant). Then they're "just trying to be unique". "Trans rights!" until a trans person tells you they're scared of the future. Then they're overreacting. "Trans rights!" until we stop fitting into your box of what an ideal trans person should be. Then you can push us to the side and wash your hands, satisfied that "we weren't one of the good ones, anyway". If you say "trans rights", you better mean all trans people, even the ones that you don't like.

This is legitimately one of my fav quotes from him

Sorry we really went from free the nipple, take back the night, slut walks, and ending gender/sex segregation in sports being fucking milquetoast feminism 101 concepts to fucking girl dinner and "I just worry about fairness if we let trans girls play against cis ones" and "it was right of that woman to call the cops on a black man for existing near here in public during the day time because men are all violent monsters" and "radical feminism isn't transphobic we just need to kill all men including trans ones those oppressive traitors" and I will legit never be able to be normal about it. What the FUCK happened. I'd say I wonder what the feminists of my youth would say about this but I'm one and lemme tell ya I want to throw up. Go fucking read bell hooks or do something else useful please because all of this learned helplessness, gender essentialism, and transphobia dressed up as feminism is actively holding us back.

I made a bat comic and now you have to look at it

Edit: Apparently it's "not bad" so I changed the phrasing. Um hello thousands of people. You, uh, you really don't need to follow me over this one, uhh, it's not representative of my normal posting habits.
