#where the fuck do you people think the alt right rise came from?#that's how right wing cults work by taking any feeling of oppression real or imagined and using it to convince you that you're the best#you aren't doing it any favors by actively reinforcing it#there's a reason right wing words their takes as “not all men” and “all lives matter”#they run on being the underdogs and the reaction#at least in their own heads#the motto of all cults is “your Problems are caused by The Other and we will help you defeat them”#The Problem and The Other can be anything so long as you think their in group holds the solution#that's how TERFs feed on victims of misogyny while also being the most misogynistic shitbags on Earth#that's how misogynoir exists#and how gay people and black people and women become right wing despite right wing hating all those things#you want men like this to stop end up becoming Nazis?#do sonething about the “men are all fat hairy ugly rapists” rhetoric#TERFs are a right wing cult but they built up by building upon the extremes of left wing discourse#nibbling at the cracks in people who weren’t as different from their oppressors as they wanted to believe#which is what the post is actually about if you'd actually read it#“hey I'm trying to stop being a part of horrible hate cult”#“this idiot isn't over his own biases yet! let's make a new post behind his back to mock him for being stupid!”#yeah even assuming you're 100% on the read here this is still a shit tier take#lily orchards. all of you.
