TERF ideology is properly taking root in "respectable" circles over in the US now as well it seems. This is indistinguishable from the :ukkk: takes about how the overturn of Roe v Wade happened because US "progressives" were too inclusive in their language.
But women are not the enemy here. Consider that in the real world, most violence against trans men and women is committed by men but, in the online world and in the academy, most of the ire at those who balk at this new gender ideology seems to be directed at women.
The irony of this statement is so thick it is suffocating. She is literally raging against online discourse while the people only mentioned in passing are actually stripping away rights.

Same goes for Germany. Almost all major private news outlets suddenly harbor a TERF nest or at least one unhinged LGB drop the T boomer. Fortunately state-funded media isn't on board with it, so people like my mom constantly get exposed to pro-trans content, and our new government in spite of all its flaws is at least decently pro-LGBT, but all liberal news sites just love to have my right to exist discussed in the marketplace of ideas.
Spiegel is a particularly bad offender. They have some unhinged bastard called Sebastian Hammelehler who did Peterson's latest rant before Peterson, whining about how it's literally 1984 when he's not allowed to deadname Elliot Page. Under his watch, they constantly sneak dogwhistles into their articles, really twisted shit. Now that our laws for name and legal gender changes are about to get reformed so they finally drop the dehumanizing gatekeeping we had to put up with, they publish opinion pieces about how access to HRT should now be made harder. And that's a liberal newspaper, not some chud rag. It's so disgusting,they're such ghouls, they are enemies of the people. All they do is warmonger and fuel culture war controversies when they could use their position to educate people, to make the world a bit better, but no. i'm so very tired of this shit.
How else is she going to feel justified in screaming at lefties?
"Stalin'sGoose420 told me I was a transphobic asshole and banned me from their leftist forum, while conservative political leaders actively stripped away abortion rights from women! THESE ARE THE SAME."
Is this whole "the far left is super sexist" still just them being mad at people supporting Bernie over Hillary?
liberal feminists are just mad that real feminists (socialists) don't respect them anymore and try to browbeat them over it. Petty ego shit.
Maybe in like 1899 when weather or not women could :vote: was still a very controversial political issue lol
Doesn't that just make them antisemitic for supporting Hillary over Bernie?
"It's obviously not anti-semitic when we do it. This is a label that we use to discredit you when you speak, not the other way around."
"I can't be antisemitic, my best friend is the State of Israel."
We should definitely be telling them that it does, I’ve been saying it for years and it’s very fun to watch their brains completely overheat when you do it
Holy shit her ex-husband is Bret Stephens lmao. When are we gonna euthanize the media class?
I know I saw that. Now she's married to a hedge fund manager. At least one woman doesn't count.
Lol there's another oped in the NYT rn that's like ACKshully rich women aren't functionally immune to the consequences of overturning Roe. It's really funny they have to do so much work accepting that yes the rich are overwhelmingly isolated from the consequences of Roe but listen sweaty have you considered [rare medical emergency in combination with unlikely circumstance]?!?
Mao Zedong: "Women hold up half the sky"
Rosa Luxembourg, Angela Davis, Helen Keller, Valentina Tereshkova, Pavlichenko?!
Not a single women CEO, business owner, or real estate mogul. Tsk tsk tsk.
Aspire to go as hard as Liu Hulan:
In December 1946, Liu Hulan cooperates with the members of the martial arts team to execute the reactionary village leader ShiPeihuai.
...
On January 12, 1947, the Kuomintang army under Yan Xishan invaded her village in response to the assassination of Shi Peihuai, the village chief of Yunzhouxi, who was known to be loyal to the Kuomintang. Upon entering the village, Kuomintang soldiers rounded up several reputed Communist Party members believed to be involved in the assassination, among them the teenager Liu Hulan. The party members were decapitated in the town square. Before killing Liu Hulan, the executioners paused, giving her one final chance to renounce her allegiance to the Communist Party. She refused and was immediately beheaded. She was 14 years old.

Using child soldiers is bad optics and just bad all around. :(
She wasn't a soldier, she was a volunteer who decided to help execute a landlord.
There's a big difference between someone handing a teenager a weapon and telling them to fight and that teenager deciding to fight of their own accord.
The real monsters are the KMT soldiers who were on board with beheading a 14 year old.
They should have refused help from a child. Were they really that hard up that the assistance of a kid was going to make a difference? Should have sent her home with instructions to stay in school and study Theory until she was older.
In a perfect world I would agree with you. China in 1945 was about as far from a perfect world as you could get.
Mao actually worried a ton about optics during the civil war. It was at the core of his strategy to be visibly the morally superior side to the other armies that had pillaged, r*ped and ransacked all across the country for decades, the likes of the colonizer troops, the royalists, the nationalists from the KMT, the imperial japanese invaders. Mao made it clear to the troops never to pillage, never to assault civilians, to always pay the peasants for food instead of taking it and to force nobody into conscription, whether adult or child. The PLA was built as a strictly voluntarist force, in stark contrast to every other armed force within china.
This was a huge part of how the communists won popular support. they just treated the people better than anybody else and that spoke for itself. taking optics seriously means much, much more than the aesthetics and respectability shit libs regurgitate when they want to tell us why using hammer and sickle emojis is bad. having good optics means to do right by the people because their support is the foundation of power for a true dictatorship of the proletariat.

if you aren’t a troll account, you’re a fucking idiot lol

is this a bit
This article is literally just saying being pro bodily autonomy and being anti bodily autonomy are the same thing.
How is anyone this fucking stupid.
TERFS understand there are people who can become pregnant but don't want to be called women challenge.
It is the year 2030, Republicans control 7 seats on the Supreme Court and controls the WH & Congress. AOC and Bernie Sanders have been executed in 2029.
NYT: "The far left and the far right are equally to blame for the just implemented government policy of public executions of leftists and liberal celebrities"
The American Civil Liberties Union, a longtime defender of women’s rights, last month tweeted its outrage over the possible overturning of Roe v. Wade as a threat to several groups: “Black, Indigenous and other people of color, the L.G.B.T.Q. community, immigrants, young people.”
It left out those threatened most of all: women. Talk about a bitter way to mark the 50th anniversary of Title IX.
I'm pretty sure there are millions of women included in that list of threatened groups. What is this author's problem?
As we all know, the most threatened women are famously white, cis, picket-fence upper middle class living the murican dream
I HAVE NO READING COMPREHENSION, I NEED THE IMPLICIT PRIMARY TOPIC TO BE EXPLICITLY NAMED
NYT just posting the 'theres no difference between good things and bad things' tweet and saying "this but unironically"

They should keep the blue checkmark on the "Account Suspended" page
Lmao she wrote an article titled, "Goodbye to You | Yes everyone else is terrible on Twitter, but I left because I was terrible, too"
Listen to this psycho:
As for language, one evening, after being told by a food service employee in response to my query about where the napkins were, “The napkins are going to be over there,” I tweeted stodgily: “The special tonight IS salmon; it’s not ‘going to be’ salmon. The table IS over there; it’s not ‘going to be’ over there. When and how and why did restaurant service language get this way?”
I was proud of this small observation, especially after a celebrated food critic I’d never met replied with gusto. “I’ve been wondering this a long time,” he wrote. “And since when are the oysters coming with the mushrooms? Are they going to the prom?” I went to bed that night feeling clever and important.
When I awoke the next day, Twitter was lying in wait. “Who are you to make fun of how restaurant workers speak?” Twitter snarled. “Bet you’ve never worked in a restaurant in your life.” “Choose your words carefully when you speak about the ‘servants,’” one stranger cautioned. When someone dared point out, “But she said ‘service,’” the original poster retorted, “You can tell what she meant.”
Is it possible that on Twitter we all become the absolute worst versions of ourselves?
Only when they're serving up copaganda with a side of Filet d'Proletariat
The sad part is that both phrases are technically correct, she's just too stupid to realize it.
Are Twitter mods the vanguard? Nvm, you do not, under any circumstances, "gotta hand it to them", etc. etc.
Do these LGB drop the T people even care or talk about "LGB" people either?
Is this person British? It's like laughably out of touch for the American political context considering general support of trans rights with millenials, zoomers, and even mainstream democrats.
it's Bret Stephen's ex-wife, and she's American

This shit is so exhausting. They would rather bring in their own demise than create a better world for everyone
They that have the last brunch, win. :elmofire: :maybe-later-kiddo: :elmofire:
“What are we, chopped liver?” a woman might be tempted to joke, but in this organ-centric and largely humorless atmosphere, perhaps she would be wiser not to.
Opinion writers always think they're so clever, lol. Where do the papers find so many cranks and weirdos?
Also, which side of this "discussion" is organ-centric, women without uteri claiming their rights and place in society, or screaming hags who center their identity on bleeding once a month?
Quippy oh so clever people like that tend to write articles that are mostly about their expensive lunch with their expensive friend and the expensive drinks the had, with some current event grudgingly mentioned too.
