Thoughts on this? Reading this it feels almost like seeing a light at the end of the tunnel. For years I projected a lot of this discourse onto myself, possibly as a way to mask over my own gender identity issues.
I held back every response I could think of because I didn't feel like I could convince someone I was bringing it forward in good faith. But if we bring up our trans comrades in the context of this dialogue I feel like we could really be taken seriously. Like it opens up so many opportunities for solidarity.
What am I missing here? What do you folks think?
Then like I said, you need to just cut them off. I was lucky in a way that I was able to save myself but for every me there's a million toxic shitheads. I just don't want to take an extremist stance and say all men are inherently bad is all, you know?
Nobody on the left is saying “all men are inherently bad” though. Only TERFs believe in this gender essentialist nonsense. In fact, the only woman I personally know who unironically believed in this sort of thing is a giant TERF and she can go fuck herself on that alone.
That's good then, btw fuck TERFs too.
