This is exactly why I "argue" with gender identity ideologues in my ask box in the hopes that I might be an example to someone (be they radfem, TRA, fence sitter, uncertain, or neither) of what radfems actually believe and that we are human beings not evil bogeymen. we are not reactionaries, not even in the slightest - we are feminist women (often SSA and gnc women) who recognize the indisputable existence of sex-based oppression and very genuinely believe with our whole hearts in fighting for female liberation. we don't hate people who identify as trans, we really truly actually just do not believe in the idea that people have an innate internal "gender identity," because the gender construct is a patriarchal creation that doesn't exist in nature.

She actively went to great effort to show followers of GII that we don't want them to suffer and support their rights and freedom as human beings. She was SUCCESSFUL in getting this across to at least one person, which we all know how rare that is. And STILL she got kicked off tiktok. Idk what her other posts were like, but I'd be very surprised if they remotely warranted that. I just wish I was at least a tiny bit surprised she still got banned for simply not worshiping gender identity and saying that doesn't make her hate those who do.

Wonderfully put

#the only upside to 2 is that it's a really excellent example of what we are always saying #about the extent of silencing & de-/no-platforming & censoring aimed at women who dare acknowledge female oppression #and about how bizarre it is that the supposedly most oppressed people in the world #who supposedly are like a teeeeny tiny portion of the population #have such strong influence and so much power as to make that censorship happen #have convinced so many people including many legislators CEOs etc #that anyone who dissents must be swiftly and thoroughly silenced #and often punished with real-world consequences like being doxxed or fired or SWATted or stalked or harassed irl #even if that dissent was done with the highest degree of empathy understanding kindness and compassion #the dissent itself is enough of a crime #sorry for the ramble #very very sleep deprived tbqh #GII #gender identity ideology #gender ideology #deplatforming #woke misogyny #trans misogyny #silencing women #censorship #what we believe #radical feminism
