Fuck all the islamic activists like Khalid Beydoun and Fatima Bhutto constantly posting about muslim m@les dying in west or p@lestine but staying silent on the oppression women are facing in islamic countries. Taliban just passed a new law banning Afghan women from speaking outside of their homes or even speaking to non-muslim women. But no word from these "peaceful religion" protesters! The entire world should follow the instructions of these fucktards, boycott whoever they want, unfollow the celebrities they hate otherwise we are labelled as islamophobes. But they can choose to zip their mouths and mock women suffering at the hands of islamic terrorists. Well, i am not boycotting or unfollowing anybody these muslims want me to as long as they don’t protest for the afghan women with the same energy and rage. You either accept that your religion is the most misogynistic one and harming women and speak up on it, or you keep getting silent treatment that you deserve . Call me an islamophobe i am not even denying that i am one!

u wanna be happy? u gotta let shit go & let shit be what it is

saw this on twitter and wanted to save it here

hijabs are misogynistic. nijabs are misogynistic. burkas are misogynistic. 

any religion that makes a woman cover herself because women are ‘unclean’ is MISOGYNISTIC. any religion that considers women to be intrinsically more sinful than men is MISOGYNISTIC. i don’t care if you’re catholic or muslim or jewish, if your religion requires women to cover themselves when men don’t have to, then your religion is sexist.

the thing that first got me questioning things was trans women who were super early in their transition and not even close to passing insisting on using women’s restrooms and locker rooms. i was like if they’re women, wouldn’t they know how unsafe they could/would make the women in those spaces feel? wouldn’t they understand that many, many women have been victimized by men and that they currently look like a man? wouldn’t they care? but they didn’t and they don’t. and it just got worse and worse. now there’s popular messaging about women’s spaces being antithetical to the trans movement and how lesbians should be open to dick.

it got harder and harder to force myself to agree until eventually i realized why the movement’s progress has increasingly come at women’s expense: male entitlement. like as soon as you free yourself from the fear of committing thought crimes and recognize that these people were at the very least socialized as males, it becomes so clear. they believe their entitlement to womanhood, women’s spaces, and women themselves is an unquestionable right. and on top of that, they have no allegiance to women. they’ll use women to validate themselves but the second we disagree, suddenly they’re okay with reminding us that they’re men and can hurt us.

I love you samosas. I love you empanadas. I love you pasties. I love you dumplings. I love you pirozhkis. I love you savory food in a convenient little carb purse.

its been p common knowledge for decades that light pollution can be massively reduced by just putting shades on streetlamps, and that doing that would save energy, help wildlife, and let us see the stars better, but are society says if u wanna change any minor little tiny thing u gotta dedicate ur whole life to campaigning for it and this is a good ways down the list of priorities for most ppl, so instead i gotta walk past newly-installed streetlamps that are just dumb glass globes that use half their electricity to blast half their light directly into the sky where it does only bad things for no reason and think "we should overthrow the government"

when the very religious conservative hardcore homophobic girl asks you how you knew you were bi, and you didn't even tell her.. "how did you know, i haven't told anyone" and watch the panic and confusion set in
