i don’t want to hear about ur “feminism” if u actively talk over & mock woc when we ask u to not be racist in feminist spaces. i don’t want to hear about ur “feminism” if u actively talk over & mock lesbians when we ask u not to be lesbophobic in feminist spaces. one crucial aspect to achieving female liberation is first forming female class consciousness and solidarity, and racism & lesbophobia get in the way of forming global female solidarity. yes this is still the case even when u pretend ur racism only selectively applies to men
Honestly I've noticed that a lot of the anti-terf shit is like McCarthyism
Like the "if they talk about feminism a lot they're probably a TERF"
reminds me of the shit like "If they talk about workers rights they're probably a communist"
Like damn maybe kind of accurate but how is there no "are we the baddies" moment here?
Like seriously what is this shit bro? @oarfishing https://www.tumblr.com/oarfishing/758650339125821440/alright-im-sick-of-seeing-terfisms-on-my-dash?source=share
Way to completely miss the point
I was scared of the day when I realized that my little brother was just like every other male, and that day came yesterday when he showed me "memes" he made with his friends about his female classmate being fat and ugly. They're 12. I feel so bad for the little girl. She had such a cute and genuine smile on the photo they used to make fun of her. She's just a little baby, and males in her class are already being so fucking terrible.
I told him that what he was doing was mean and that he should delete it, but he just brushed me off, and we haven't talked about it ever since. I swear, if I catch him doing something like this again, then I won't hold back on him.
Idk but generally that is not how radical feminism works.
Wasn't the whole "scientific proof" of transgender identities being that trans people supposedly have a brain wired like the opposite sex (or I guess for nonbinary people, just atypically)? I saw that notion all over the place and actually believed it for some time. How else can it be innate if it's not related to brain structure/chemistry?
You can acknowledge gendered socialization being a thing and still prioritize educating women over men. It's much less of a uphill battle since feminism is already in women's interest more. If it benefited men equally, I don't doubt that radfems would put as much effort in educating men.
I would also think about separatism and the 4B movement kind of like a strike as well.
And still dude, what are you proposed solutions? Completely dodged that one.
We used to make fun of people for saying "not all men" it was beautiful
... genuinely what is this timeline
Big day for deranged evangelical freaks
Well,
1. Radical feminism isn't just for developed countries. Who told you that was the case?
I can agree, things have gotten better in countries with more feminist policies, but these things certainly have not been there even in "developed" countries for "more than a century". Need I remind you the fact that 50 years ago women weren't allowed to have bank accounts without a mans permission in America? Or that marital rape was only fully illegal in the US as of 1993? And dude look, abortion was made illegal again in many states, a lot of them overlap with the ones that have the most issues with teen pregnancy and child marriage (red states). This is another specific issue.
But enough about America alone. Globally, women's rights have been recently taking a turn for the worse.
You can't undo literal millennia of oppression in only 50 years, and yes attitude and perceptions around women's rights is also important to push policies. Policy doesn't come out of thin air and people generally don't protest for things they don't think they need.
2. I provided specific policies already. It's not my fault if you can't read. And boycotts or each of these polices are just examples, not the full solution. It's a lot more complex and gradual. For example, living women the right to vote also didn't get rid of the patriarchy but it did help. Telling the suffragettes they should give up protesting and that it's hopeless for women to have equal rights however, was not. How are you going to accuse us of doomerism and then delegitimize all political activism and call it useless?
3. The ideas of male and female socialization are pretty integral to radfem theory on gender. If you had doubts, then you can just ask her. No need for charades. What tells you "that person doesn't actually agree that the problem lies in socialisation" lmao?
4. That's the thing, we're against gendered socialization in general. There's not really much to be done in policy at this time, other than trying to educate people get rid of the notion that male and female brains are significantly different or that people are hard-wired as feminine vs masculine because of their brain's gender. Gender ideology/activism did push this back a bit in the scientific field.
What are your proposed solutions or specific issues you want addressed? I hear a lot of criticism from you but... no suggestions?

Without government subsidies, Tesla and SpaceX would not exist. Musk would be penniless.
LMAO LITERALLY
Men will say the most vile shit about her and she's usually right honestly. Like yes we do need to do something about climate change and capitalism. God forbid she worded a speech in a slightly cringe way in 2015 though (it wasn't actually as cringe as cons make it out to be though, they cherrypick) Also I swear she roasted Andrew Tate once too LMAO
I'm an 18 yo womanI'm a socialist and radical feminist and I will post about these topics a lotNo DNI but I will roast you if you deserve itkanrade #2 ☭✯☭
