I absolutely felt alienated and angry that all these unnecessary accusations were flying around, and I didn't even engage.
I added my pronouns to be nice and I didn't realize we could do it post creation, but holy shit there was DEFINITELY some people actively starting shit. If I had anywhere else to go to feel like an accepted leftist I probably would have. The bullying really activated my fight response because it had the same energy as the traumatic shit I went through where the bullies had the powers-that-be behind them and knew they wouldn't face any consequences. I'm aggressive as hell with the enemy, but man I couldn't hold a candle to a lot of stuff being said. Nobody was stepping back and listening, just fucking accusatory baiting.
So I to made a thread that would try to humanize everyone and remind us we're on the SAME TEAM and I actually wanted to know more about. Helped me calm down, but the fact remains that I feel like I would be thrown under the bus at any second by my allies for not passing every purity test. I'm sure that isn't an exclusive feeling. Call me a class reductionist, but we have history to fight. Not each other.
Trans girl. I absolutely hated and LOATHED those repulsive allies. No material help, stupid radical liberalism presented with the most hateful narcissism and character assassination. I hope they rot. Go ahead and ban me for “being a terf”.
I am a class reductionist. All the best trans girls I’ve met are. I’m proud to be a class reductionist. So is Amber.
