#i just need somewhere to scream in all caps:#THE FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM WITH RA/DFE/MS IS NOT THE TRANSMISOGYNY#THAT IS A SYMPTOM OF THE GENDER ESSENTIALISM#THE PROBLEM IS DEHUMANIZING WIDE SWATHS OF HUMANITY#specifically: you cannot take the transmisogyny out and have a good worldview.#you can’t magically say ‘trans women are women and therefore perfect innocent victims’#and ‘trans men are men and therefore brutish subhuman oppressors’#which… is a very common viewpoint on this website#trans women are women. trans men are men. they have different experiences than cis women and men.#all people are people who are capable of good and evil#like. come on guys. men are human beings.#most of the men I’ve known have been kind and thoughtful.#most of the shitty men I’ve known have had reasons for being shitty that are not ‘being a man makes you evil’#and the same thing applies to women - who are equally capable of causing harm.#don’t use scapegoats guys. it keeps you from making any actually useful progress.
