if we're talking about material outcomes I will take a comrade who destroys a site that harasses trans people (including black trans people!) and makes the occasional racially insensitive tweet vs literally everyone who is complaining about her combined BUT I don't even think that tweet was racially insensitive lol. it was mocking identitarian liberalism

I'm at a point now as a trans woman where I feel no obligation to humor people just because they weaponize their own marginalized status. You do not need to both sides Dave Chapelle's standup because he's black and couches his bigoted grievances in liberal language. Neither do you need to humor TERFs just because they use feminist language. I know I will never break my sense of solidarity and earnest desire to grow when it comes to other marginalized communities. People dogpile trans people who make mistakes because we're easy targets, much easier than the people who actually hold clout and power in society. Also because people are still incredibly prejudiced against our group.

This is what happens with well-off people who have no concept of materialism and are Extremely Online, for them this is not in any way connected to their everyday lives and experiences, this is a hobby. They're the people who stopped using 'intersectionality' the moment they heard it includes class.

it’s this kind of weird extremely online quasi-religious alchemy where if you recite the correct sequence of sacred words (center voices-bodies in spaces-lived experience), people are legally obliged to listen to and agree with you. it’s especially frustrating since a lot of these terms once had a fairly narrow academic definition which made them actually useful in certain types of discussion, but have been diluted into complete uselessness. cultural appropriation is when white people have tattoos, gaslighting is when someone disagrees with you, etc.

Decolonization is something individuals do Groomers are people who don't want to abuse gay kids I think there is an intentional destruction of left-wing and liberatory language by the center and the right. What happened to Critical Race Theory and the term "Woke" were intentional campaigns by the right wing to rob those concepts of their power. And they were successful, so many people have a definition in their minds that has little to do with the way these terms have been used by marginalized groups. They are much less open to hearing the truth now. Isn't that what's happening to all of these other terms? They are liberalized, stretched, and exaggerated until they have lost their meaning. Thereby robbing people of valuable tools.

Because liberals don't actually understand action as anything but individuals doing it to feel good about themselves and gain personal clout and accolades for their resume. They genuinely are confused and suspicious at any attempt at collective action, because that's utterly alien and absurd to their worldview to do so unless you are literally being paid for it.

You mean the dude who wrote a novel about how cool is it for an amazing older novelist to have a harem of ethnic ladies at his beck and call 24/7 recording his every utterance like a Kelly cartoon but serious, and a couple different novels including sections about how in the future boning your daughter and your mother is very cool and you're a closeminded loser for thinking it isn't, and also a very weird novel about how awesome it would be for a dying rich dude to take over his dead lady secretary's body and get her pregnant with his own frozen sperm because being trans is only cool if rich capitalists do it by purchasing corpses because they want to cheat death and have their brain put into a new body and also the brain transplant means that the dude and the dead lady become a Being John Malkovich style mind gestalt which later also adds on her dead husband, and then the child can inherit the gestalt also had some weird things to say about race? It really was wild being 12 in the 90s and into sci fi, and folks kept giving me copies of Stranger in a Strange Land and Time Enough for Love because they had spaceships on the cover

Read the article and the writer is making the case that insulin isn't a viable long-term solution for Type 2 diabetics, which comprise 90% of diabetics in the US, so insulin price caps aren't good enough. He says it should be a price cap on all diabetes medication, which tbh is hard to disagree with. What a headline though, and what a way to pit the different kinds of diabetics against each other

Yeah, that dude. Don't forget Friday, where a genetically engineered superhuman suffers brutal torture and rape in the first chapter, then spends the rest of the book bouncing from one polycule to another before overcoming her internalized bigotry and inferiority complex through the joys of ~BaBiEs!~ I spent waaaaay too long as a smug teenaged right-libertarian with hosed-up views on gender and relationships because my dad kept throwing Heinlein books at me and I didn't develop critical reading capabilities until much later than I should have.
