Pls take care of yourself đ„ș. You lighten up the day of a lot of people.
I have trained my brain to take any form of criticism or insult without it affecting me at all
Bro, why?
I had an idea for a meme, and unfortunatley for everyone I decided to actually go with it.
These are cute.

Damn. Bolsonaro needs to be stopped.
So, our âLungâ is on fire.
It is already threatened by huge deforestation, to the point it lost 20% of its width in less than 30 years.
Itâs been burning for around two weeks and almost no word has been uttered about it. I, sincerely, have come to find out about it just now. Iâm shooketh âąïž because weâre really burning away this planet.
The Amazon Rainforest holds 20% of global waters, itâs an area of incredible value in terms of biodiversity and, nevermind, itâs a crucial climate regulator. Spread awareness, demand help.
Posts like this are why I don't engage with radblr anymore. Or basically any community dominated by white people.
Look at the notes. It's filled with mostly "sex based oppression is real" as if most misogynists and feminists in India don't already know this. But since some Western feminists or from other countries don't, it's important to them to tokenize our struggles so they gain a point in their political debates. I have said this a hundred times before but it's obvious how they see us as nothing but tokens. They call TRAs racist for preying on the insecurities of woc due to beauty standards imposed on us and for ignoring our oppression as women, but they do the same thing with us. They see some issue unique to a specific community of poc? They try to fit it in their arguments against the libfems. Unlike issues that they face as well, like domestic abuse, prostitution and porn. On which they write very well researched and elaborate posts. But they're completely lazy when it comes to woc especially the ones living in the global south. And that leads to their racist and classist behavior.
As for trans people- they always try to get back at radfems by saying "terfs will look at these women and say they're men" or whatever when they see a woc talk about her own issues or even when she's simply breathing, as if it doesn't cross their own mind how they say the same thing when they go "transphobia is racist" as if woc are some third gender and as if trans poc do not experience any other meaningful oppression that's distinguishable from racism đ
Second of all- it's obvious many of them are racist but don't explicitly express it but some on this post did-
It's so obvious that in the second screenshot what that person means by "cultures with such barbaric practices" is "brown savages". This is blatant racism. But when I pointed out on my other post how white radfems are incapable of forming any meaningful solidarity with woc if they only focus on misogyny and not racism (which most of them are guilty of) I received my first racist backlash on here. Even many woc themselves did this. But I already talked about how woc on here are like the kind of woc who take racism seriously but not sexism in order to gain validation by moc, except it's vice verse in this case. You guys can't comprehend and accept that everytime white women try to talk about issues exclusive to any race that's not white, even if it's from a "feminist" pov, then they very likely have a racist mindset behind their words, whether it's intentional or subconscious.
Anyways, nothing about this is "cultural". (And tbh even if it's cultural why do you act like culture is influenced by race itself and not many other economic, political and social factors that white people have and still influence?).
The men who are doing this are not some unique kind of misogynistic relative to white men. Do white men not stigmatize periods? They're doing this (and I clarify I am not ok with this or defending it but I am simply fighting back against the assumption that the cause of this thing is simply cultural) because the women working on those sugarcane fields have to do extremely intensive labor for hours straight. It affects their menstrual health severely. And this is a poor country in the global south affected by economic imperialism, and therefore mostly production based with less mechanization of the agricultural industry, not like the dominant service sector in most Western countries. It's not easy for people this poor to switch to some other job with equal or better pay and better working conditions. And this particular district is especially poor. How is anything about this "cultural" and why do you think we deserve to die out because of it?
Sorry we're not as developed as Spain or some other Western country where the women here could get menstrual leaves or something and it wouldn't affect production (which is already quite low for a population this large involved in agriculture).
Instead of adopting this as a talking point against TRAs or justifying racism why don't you try to criticize both imperialism and capitalism or at least talk about the poverty and lack of resources causing these issues, if you really care for "all" women so much as you claim to. But no, you will pretend the issue is solely intentional misogyny and not involving multiple factors in it.
And btw I don't want any white woman to come in my inbox like they did last time and demand that I apologize for being rude to white women when criticizing their racism. That's never gonna happen. Especially not when most white women and even many woc don't bother with this issue. Get rid of your superiority complex this isn't the colonial era anymore.
As for Indian radfems (most of whom I have come across being bootlickers of white women)- The global south has classes too. And yk this. Just because you're a woc too doesn't mean you don't have any other bias against any other women in this country. Amazing how some of you pretend you give a fuck about the growing nationalist movement just because you're socially liberal. But how nationalists promote imperialism and capitalism in the country doesn't matter to you.
Tumblr's "for u" algorithm sucks because it just recommends the stuff that I posted.

God I love this design for Pavitr, it's so much better than that bland ass design from the comics.
ATSV giving me the desi rep I wanted.
I think it's Sona Carstairs, nee Jahanshah. Cordelia was almost killed due to Tatiana, Alastair has his heart broken due to Grace and so did Cordelia, not only that but the flask was clearly a wine flask and she may have had an adverse reaction to it due to Elias. Also at her depths Sona always considered herself a Jahanshah.
GUYS IT COULD BE RISA OR SONA
DISLIKES MATTHEW ( Risa does, Sona could after Cordelia ran away with him) â
Has something to do with Alastair â
Looks like something out of a fantasy

Fuck.
What if the ghost is Thomas? Like... he reacted to Matthew's flask, told them to go to the tavern, reacted badly to Blackthorn (Tatiana killed his sister), and led them to Alastair's dagger
