    CW: discussion of V*ush past actions and SV

    Okay ancap V*ush, definitely going to take this criticism seriously when it's coming from you, a person guilty of sexual harassment and defending the viewing of CP.

    But seriously, while there has been a wave of stupididpol people trying to use the Sinema thing to justify their bigotry, it's definitely possible to call out stupididpol bafoons and criticise Sinema for her terrible actions that will lead to people dying at the same time. And this Sinema brand of neoliberal "feminism" needs to be weeded and stomped out.

      This is what has me so pissed off, the lauding of neoliberal girlboss bourgeois "feminism". This shit that isn't even intersectional and is focused around the PMC and performative acts like more woman drone pilots.

        Yeah it makes me upset too. It gives free ammo to the stupididpol crowd, which is now out in full force due to the Sinema thing. Bourgeois feminism just ends up actually hurting marginalized people this way, by devaluing the struggle and giving ammo to reactionaries. Like between this disgusting "girlboss yes queen" nonsense and stupid idpol, I'm just here like :doomjak:

          Well thankfully since our ideology is based around actual liberation we don't fall into traps of like men in charge but woke like stupidpol or women in charge but woke like neoliberals do. It does often seem like chuds and neolibs have the biggest say in everything while us leftists are totally sidelined, it can make you feel like banging your head against a wall sometimes.

          What she’s doing is actively hurting women and being lauded as “feminist” and it makes me rage.

          I know, it's so infuriating. This shit is right up there with Beyonce being a hero to women while using slave labor in Sri Lanka to make her clothes.
