next time someone tries to tell me people don’t demonize and act violently toward trans men and transmascs, i’m just going to make them read this reply i got to a positivity post that was specifically about trans manhood and transmasculinity. this is basically just every negative thing people say no one says about us rolled into one message that’s aimed directly at us.

and as if this isn’t enough on its own, their whole blog is full of this disgusting shit. it seems to be dedicated to it, actually. (fair warning, don’t look at the next two screenshots if you don’t want to see even more genuinely awful transphobia.)

you can say what you want about how they’re probably just a troll or baiting or doing this for attention but the fact remains that, regardless of their true intentions, these are real things that a real person is saying about trans men&mascs, publicly and proudly and to our faces because they want it to do damage.

i’ve dealt with people like this before, on a much closer level. when i was a teenager, i had a grown woman come into my dms just to send me very graphic and detailed instructions on how to kill myself. literally entire paragraphs with all of the steps she wanted me to take. before i blocked her, i told her she was lucky she sent it to me and not someone more vulnerable, because otherwise she might have real blood on her hands. she just sent the whole thing again.

we can argue all day about infantilization versus demonization, erasure versus hypervisibility, what counts as violence, what words we use to talk about our oppression, and so on. but the reality is, whether you believe people want us dead or not, they clearly do, and a lot of them really aren’t making any effort to hide it. at this point, if you can’t see it, it’s because you don’t care about our lives enough to look at the reality that’s right in front of your face.

before you do anything else, block this person. don’t engage with them directly, don’t give them the satisfaction of the attention they might be fishing for, just block them. but don’t forget that they exist either, especially if you’re not a trans man or transmasc yourself. don’t just block them and move on and forget that there are real people out there who will say these things about us, who genuinely enjoy the thought that their actions might have deadly consequences.

because these are the people you empower to come out of hiding and start being blatant about their hatred when you insist that no one wants us dead, when you openly mock us and demonize us and try to cast us out from the community that we were supposed to share. when even our own people decide we’re an acceptable target, these bigots throw a fucking party because you’ve just told them they can get away with murder as long as it’s our blood on their hands. this particular blog was started recently, and i guarantee it’s not a coincidence that they started it in the midst of a rise in online anti-transmasculinity.

it really is telling, how much hate a positivity post has incited. y’all can’t stand when we talk about the bad things that happen to us, but you hate our happiness even more.

Lets start off with a nice easy one.

Holy homophobia racism classism batman. Yikes.

The Bakugou lemmings really continue showing their colors.

They are bitching, sobbing and moaning that Bakugou didn’t get what he wanted in the end. That it was unfair. That it’s a slap in the face to him. That all of that was for nothing. That he didn’t get to fulfill his dreams. That he is suffering and is sad and miserable.

To which I say: Don’t come crying to us about how it isn’t fair for Bakugou…

When he went through worse at age four.

If anything, Bakugou got off easy.

He's in the top 15 (for reference, best girl Momo is stuck at 20) and starting his own agency. He never had to answer for what he did and was never condemned for it by anyone. Got to go through the majority of his life with his shitty attitude, no one bothering to clock his shit when anyone else would have gotten jumped. Hell in most cases he was praised for it.

Bakugou, despite consistently being awful, faced almost zero repercussions for it. Dropping in the ranking and Izuku declining his offer is literally nothing compared to what he's done.

He deliberately tried to push someone into suicide

fuck you

To the anti-endo who suicide baited us, sincerely, fuck you, I hope you never find peace in life.

because of your inability to simply co-exist my girlfriend had to be pulled out of front and she coughed hundreds of flowers- she’s *comatose* right now, we had to create a GODDAMN hospital to put her on anesthesia so she’d stop coughing up blood and flowers.

Sincerly fuck you so much. You claim you’re defending trauma victims, but guess what? You just traumatized me but all my headmates!

Because you simply couldn’t co-exist with a non purely traumagenic system you decided to tell them to kill themselves?

That is not fucking okay! Alright? It is never okay to tell anyone to kill themselves! No matter what they’ve done.

which in our case? Was absolutely nothing! We simply made a fucking notes post and you thought it was soooooo hilarious if you asked how many notes it’d take to commit suicide!

No! No! It’s fucking not! You have no goddamn shame in your body! Because guess what?

You just told a minor- 3 minors, 1 young adult, 1 adult, A FOUR YEAR OLD, and an age less being to kill themselves! Oh! And we’re bodily a minor too if we forgot to goddamn mention! So even if we were “faking” you still told a minor to kill themselves!

it’s not funny and will never be funny to suicide bate someone. My girlfriend who was the one fronting btw suffers from such strong delusions oh hanahaki that the headspace made it real there.

if our ONLY TWO adults hadn’t been awake and able to pull her from front- which btw 2 other of our headmates had to help with- did I mention the 4 year old was there too?- then she would’ve started to have a coughing fit in real life.

sincerely, *sincerly*, fuck you, we’re not christian but god has a specially low pit of hell for suicide baiters like you.

[proshipconfessions]

Ok, I came across a post on TikTok that was pretty new saying how they didn’t know 🍰🍓 was a “proship emoji combo”.

I decided to comment, “proshipping is just a stance on shipping which is anti-harassment over ships, like how antiship is the opposite stance. not every proshipper supports or likes darkships.”

You know, explaining the definition. I wasn’t rude or anything. I just thought I would be that one person to educate them because TikTok fandoms warp a label’s meaning most of the time.

I get a reply and it’s an anti…literally telling me to “shush” and “KEY WHY ESS” after I explained I’m not even a proshipper and that I was just explaining the definition.

You can’t even tell if I get involved in shipcourse based on my profile because nothing is on it!

TikTok antis are a different breed, I swear…

Heartwarming: Multicultural Couple Teaches Each Other About Suicide Baiting

[thebibliosphere]

I used to have a lot of patience for explaining why authors still use KDP despite hating it.

And then people started sending me weekly messages telling me to kill myself for enabling Jeff Bezos to go to space, and somehow, I don't know, I just lost that patience.

Can't fathom why.

[ofironandivory]

Thought taking a 24 hour break from social media would clear my head a bit, but I guess I'll leave this vent here, drop some posts in my drafts then I'll have to extend that break for a little while longer...

Bold enough to send hate, too cowardly to spell without censoring your words or to say it with your full chest, instead of hiding behind anon, typical.

I'm not even trying to take part in the "Maxwell nation" anyways, the only time I can even stand the guy is when he's with Wes or with Charlie.

As much as I'd like to kill myself right now, your wording is just so annoyingly cringe that I'd rather live just out of spite to piss you off specifically.

Better to have some resemblance of empathy and humanity than to do whatever it is you're spewing out here... Even if it's fake or not entirely genuine.

Your honesty with no kindness is simply cruelty and I have no interest in it in any way.

If Wilson can carry giant marble boulders across the map, I'm sure he can handle me just fine.

He can think whatever he'd like, he can even lobotomize me if he wants, especially if it means I won't have to think about stupid assholes like yourself.

Kesia didn't know I was a proshipper and I didn't know they were an anti.

I just appreciate their art and if they don't want me to interact with them, that's something I'm entirely willing to respect, as I have.

I'm not friends with them, obviously, but I advise against putting words in someone's mouth, especially when it comes to something this serious and disgusting.

By all means, please tell me what this is supposed to be, if not harassment.

You're here sending me insults and slurs while decorating your asks like some sort of scrapbook from hell, what am I supposed to make of that?

It's easy to punch down on people who you find disagreeable or weak, so congratulations on proving that the only strength you have is to try and ruin someone's day just by being yourself.

Let's Talk About Izuku and Bakugou's Relationship

Happy New Year, everyone! Thought I'd kick 2024 off with a new post. I haven't written an in-depth analysis in a while, so I figured now was a good time.

So, I've touched on this before, many times in fact. If you've seen my other posts, you know that I think that the BKDK relationship is a clusterfuck of codependency, abuse, and toxicity. But I don't think I've ever analyzed it frame-by-frame, so here's an attempt.

Childhood

The lake scene has the most focus than any other flashback in the series. It's meant to show us why Bakugou hated Izuku; he assumed Izuku looked down on him and saw him as weak. It's supposed to support the idea that Bakugou has an inferiority complex that's been present since he was a kid and that's why he lashes out at Izuku and wants to be rid of him. Because Izuku makes him feel weak.

But this isn't true. Or, it doesn't paint the whole picture.

One thing the lake scene seems to gloss over is the fact that Bakugou was always mean to Izuku. Maybe he wasn't as harsh and could be written off as just a kid being a kid, but he still made fun of him. He still went out of his way to make him feel bad about himself and humiliate him. He called him "Deku" way before either of them were (or weren't) given a quirk.

And he only ever did this to Izuku, not the other kids part of his posse. He, even at such a young age, saw Izuku as an easy target, someone he could easily shove around because he knew Izuku wouldn't fight back (this would persist for the next ten years).

It's important to note that there's only one instance where Bakugou's behavior towards Izuku turns violent. It's when Izuku defends a kid that Bakugou and his posse are picking on. This is the moment where Bakugou becomes physically aggressive; not when he found out Izuku was quirkless, during the lake, or any time before. It's here, when Izuku stops being the defenseless wimp who won't stand up to him. He doesn't like that Izuku stepped out of the mold he had confined him to (I'll come back to this later).

The truth of their childhood together is that Bakugou was always inherently awful to Izuku. It wasn't like he experienced one bad moment that flipped a switch, Bakugou liked picking on Izuku from day one.

Middle School

There isn't much to say about their days at Aldera other than it's just a progression of escalation from their childhood. They've settled into their roles as abuser and victim. Bakugou knows he can say and do whatever he wants and Izuku won't defend himself because it's been the status quo for a decade.

He revels in that power he has over him, likes to remind Izuku of his "place." And if he steps out of line, Bakugou exerts that power over him to shut him right down, stressing his inability to do anything about his situation. It's a cycle of abuse.

Deku vs Kacchan Part 1

I've already talked about this scene before, but this is also another example as to what I was alluding to above.

As @delawaredetroit pointed out in a post from a while ago, Bakugou isn't feeling betrayed here. He himself has said time and time again that he and Izuku weren't friends. He cares about the fact that his victim now has power of his own.

All their lives, Bakugou had the power and Izuku was powerless. That was the dynamic they were used to and the one that Bakugou was aware and repeatedly took advantage of. But now, Izuku isn't powerless or defenseless. He no longer fits the mold that Bakugou had tied him to since childhood. That's why Bakugou is so upset; not because Izuku kept something from him but because the power imbalance between was shifting.

And it's why he tries to use guilt-tripping here. He wants Izuku to feel bad, wants to reestablish some of the control over him he just lost. And it works, because Izuku tells him he inherited his quirk completely unprompted after the fact. Bakugou knows he has the power in their relationship and has no issues abusing that power.

Sports Festival

I don't have much to say here, but I would like to point out something very inconsistent concerning Bakugou's interpretation of his relationship with Izuku. He claims that Izuku kept following him around and that he couldn't get rid of him, which attributed to his dislike. But even if that was true when they were 5, it's actually the opposite at least from middle school on.

Bakugou went out of his way to target Izuku in the first chapter/episode. He also tracked him down after the Sludge Villain incident. He's initiated every one of their confrontations in UA. And here, he deliberately eavesdropped on Izuku's conversation with Todoroki.

I don't know whether to call it hypocrisy or ignorance, but Izuku was content to leave Bakugou alone. Bakugou's the one who's constantly harassing and obsessing over him.

Final Exams

Izuku daring to display confidence and competence invokes immediate physical violence in Bakugou. He doesn't like that Izuku is talking to him like he's an equal, he doesn't like that Izuku dares to step outside of his role as a victim. Bakugou wants Izuku to act like he's below him and gets agitated when he doesn't do that. He, in this moment, cared more about putting Izuku in his place than his own grade.

Deku vs Kacchan Part 2

I mentioned that BKDK is codependent in the beginning of the post. This is what I mean.

Bakugou can't cope with the fact that he isn't the best and takes it out on the only target he has. Izuku had nothing to do with his shortcomings, but he still felt the need to establish superiority over him; a grasp for some measure of control.

Like I said above, he's well aware of the power he has over Izuku. Do you think he would have tried this with Todoroki? Or Tokoyami? Or Iida? No, because he knows that none of them would have even dignified him with a response. But he knows he can control Izuku in a way he can't with other people. He feels comfortable treating only Izuku as his emotional and physical punching bag.

The Apology

It's interesting that prior to apologizing for treating him badly, Bakugou proceeds to treat Izuku badly.

This interaction is important because it's their first major conflict after Bakugou's "redemption." We're supposed to be at the point where he's changed. But he still resorts to insults and goading. His first instinct is still to put Izuku down.

I've said most of what I needed to about the apology. But I do want to mention that coming from Bakugou's mouth, it grossly understates what happened during those ten years. Because the abuser is the one telling the story, his transgressions don't seem that bad. He's the one controlling the narrative, so his classmates- Izuku's friends- don't know the full story. They don't know what Bakugou put Izuku through. Bakugou comes off looking sympathetic to their peers by speaking "his truth."

Was this his intention? Probably not as Bakugou doesn't really care what others think about him. But it does raise the point that this is the extent as to how Bakugou sees his past self; as a stubborn, overzealous child and not the abuser that he was

[ho-ho-homosxual]

you're disgusting. an utter failure. fuck you. go kill yourself. we all hate you here. stop pretending like it'll get better. pull the trigger

yeah, I know

[samuraisharkie]

sorry

you’re not forgiven! get some fucking help! Not even at my lowest possible point of my own breakdowns in life would I have ever done this. You need to throw your phone and electronics in a lake. What a half assed apology compared to this too. Just a singular ‘sorry’?? What if I hadn’t been someone that had made the decision to never again attempt? Would you deliver that same ‘sorry’ to my friends and family? If I had taken your cruelty as my final reason to stop trying? It’s one thing when ur fucking joking or some shit, it’s another to do what you did to someone you KNOW is already struggling with mental health. I don’t care that you’re going through a similar problem, absolutely nothing excuses your behavior. I’ve never known one person in my life that’s had a breakdown and attempted to suicide bait someone over it. You are a cruel person and you need to get help to stop your behavior now before it’s too fucking late. But you will never find forgiveness from me. You’ll just have to live with that. You need to get help now. I rarely ever suggest this bc it’s similarly traumatic, but if you genuinely can’t control that, you may need to think about calling the hospital. Admit yourself and stay there until you’re out of the danger zone. Just never fucking do this again.
