#fucked forced birthers

[odinsblog]

Comrade Putin ☭ is just another impious ‘family values’ transphobic homophobic rightwing conservative authoritarian grifter 🫡

Well-known Russian transgender blogger and LGBTQ activist Milana Petrova – who is no longer living in the country – posted about the raids on her Telegram channel.

She said the raids were on private LGBTQ parties, not nightclubs.

“There were NO raids there yesterday. There were raids on individual LGBT parties for adults. There, people’s passports were photographed without their will, apparently for further repression,” Petrova posted on Sunday.

Any questions?

I thought a response to one of my posts was funny so I reblogged it, but then I checked out their blog and it turns out they're a fucking Forced Birther who believes a cluster of undeveloped cells deserves more bodily autonomy than the whole person it's inside of, and so I deleted the reblog and blocked them immediately, because Absolutely Not.

A fetus is not a person. It is not "alive" in the same sense that I am, and I do not owe it the use of my organs under literally any circumstances.

Forced Birth Extremists aren't welcome here. My posts aren't for you. I don't care what you think, just block me immediately <3

Since people are actually following me for some reason, I thought I should probably make some kind of introductory post I guess.

I'm Zero, I'm a 27 year old visibly disabled trans man with a facial difference living in the UK, and a survivor of meningoencephalitis, septicaemia/sepsis, and a resulting stroke as a teen. I have multifocal right hemisphere brain damage resulting in hemiplegia (including facial paralysis), epilepsy, type 2 narcolepsy, mild anterograde amnesia, prosopagnosia, and other cognitive issues. I also have arthritis from septic damage, degenerative disc disease, and various mental health issues I'm still waiting for a concrete diagnosis on. I cannot mobilise without an aid (currently crutch and mobility scooter!) and have to live in sheltered housing. I'm open to questions as long as you are respectful.

I post a lot about disability, cripplepunk stuff, trans rights, general LGBTQ+ rights, anticapitalism, etc. A fair amount of what I post is NOT suitable for minors, I guess I can't stop you from following me but I'd really prefer you didn't. My blog runs on a queue, so that I don't spam everyone's feed every time I spend a couple of hours browsing when I don't have the energy for anything else.

I do have neurological problems and am on way more pain meds than one person should have in their body, so you have to be a little patient with me sometimes, my sentences don't always make sense on the first go and I misremember things sometimes. I appreciate it if you respectfully point out if I minced something. I can make my own judgements and form opinions just fine though, so fuck off if you're going to use it as an excuse to belittle and discredit me. Definitely don't just trust me on complex math though, I can barely read an analog clock.

Terfs/radfems, bigots of any kind, eugenics and genocide supporters or apologists, and radqueers (ESPECIALLY "transabled") please interact so I can block you. Forced birthers/anti-choicers, my posts are not and have never been for you, fuck off. If you whine to me about cripplepunk and physical disability spaces being "exclusionist", I will block you. Same if you cannot be respectful about facial differences, strokes, brain damage, visible disabilities, etc, with a zero tolerance policy. I will also most likely make fun of any and all of the above on my blog :)

I am not a free reference for your whump fic, nor am I a subject for your disability fetish. I block able bodied whump writers and disability fetish blogs on sight. No exceptions. Writers wanting to ask RESPECTFUL disability questions are free to do so (although I will not guarantee an answer) but my disabilities are not a fetishistic throwaway trope.

🍉🇵🇸I believe in a free Palestine! 🇵🇸🍉

I will not argue with or tolerate genocide supporters or apologists, my blog is not a safe space for any kind. You are not welcome here.

If any of my image posts are missing image descriptions, please let me know! I do try to add them when I remember but my brain has a very limited capacity, and often things slip through the cracks and disappear. People who make image descriptions I love you, I will paste them into the original post. Please also let me know if you spot any other accessibility issues, such as text not being screen reader friendly.

I also have an art blog over at @disharm0nious ! There's not much on it so far, since I'm dealing with a lot health-wise right now. I do a lot of work with textiles, including screen printing and making my own cross stitch patterns.

Wow, the "Pro-Lifers" haven't wasted any time with their Anti-Abortion shit since their favorite Orange Rapist has "won".

I love how all these "Pro Lifers" are so for life but LOVE the Death Penalty 🙄.

Let's stop calling them "Pro Lifers" and call them what they are, FORCED BIRTHERS. Because they don't give TWO SHITS about those babies once they're FORCED OUT OF THEIR MOTHER. Not to mention they give ZERO SHITS about the wellbeing of the mother.

And I blame ALL of you idiots that were too lazy to vote, voted for that old bitch Jill Stein or voted for the Orange Rapist.

And now people like THIS PIECE OF SHIT will be in charge of things:

GOOD FUCKING JOB.

Tags pulling no punches but a roundhouse kick

[virgil-is-a-cutie]

So like you know how in The Giver there's only one The Reciever of Memories every maybe 50 yrs or so idk tbh and how they choose the girls who'd be the ones to give birth bc they were deemed lazy but looked hard working bc after a few kids they were sent off to work in the field

So fem Stanley and fem Stanford being given their roles.

Stella is ofc assigned to be a Birther and Starla is the Next Reciever of Memories.

Starla now has to acknowledge his sister is forced to give birth, and maybe...

Oh wait they fucking killed twins in canon

Do you think Barack Obama was a good president?

For the most part, yes. The fact that he got elected in the first place (and in a landslide) was nothing short of miraculous, but those of you on the younger side don't remember just how FUCKING FED UP the entire country was with Dubya and his bullshit. It didn't really matter if you were Democrat or Republican. Everyone hated him, especially when he went out in 2008 by causing a generational economy-crashing cataclysm. For him to go from a 91%+ approval rating just after 9/11, to the low 20s by the time he left office, shows just how sick and tired everyone was with him, and how we fondly (ha) imagined that he would be the worst American president in our lifetime. How very innocent we were.

The fact that Obama, a black guy with the middle name Hussein, who had not even a full term as a US senator as his only real meaningful political experience, could come in there and win is a feeling that honestly is nothing like anything anyone had experienced in politics before. I remember staying up with my family (I was studying abroad in the UK) over phone/Skype until the race was called for Obama around 3am, and one of my classmates ran outside the flat in delirium yelling "OBAMA WON!!!" The pictures of elderly African-Americans just crying their eyes out on that night, and the way they still look at Barack and Michelle now, is special. Yes, of course the reality didn't totally live up to the promise of that moment, but man, for a little while there, it really felt like we had changed the entire paradigms on which this stupid flawed country had been built from the beginning. I can't imagine we'll feel like that again for a long, long time.

Obama managing to save the economy (as noted before, it's a theme that Democratic presidents have to come in and clean up the ungodly mess left by Republicans) and pass the Affordable Care Act, even as watered-down as it was from what he wanted, were two very significant accomplishments. Where he fell short, however, was in his dealings with said Republicans, and obviously not all of this was his fault. Obama was intensely conscious of his position as a political newcomer AND that he was a black guy. The level of racism, vitriol, and sheer ugliness that he (and his family) faced from all quarters was (and is) yeah. We got the Tea Party, the "birthers," and the rest of the radical-right lunatics out in full force, and Obama was aware that he was going to get blamed for everything and then some. He also wanted to think that the Republicans would throw a hissy fit and then get over it and work with him. They didn't. Not for one single day. Not on anything. Just because he was a Democratic black guy. That was all it took, and they stuck to it even as Obama kept reaching for the football and thinking that THIS time, surely they would be reasonable. They weren't. On anything. Ever.

Likewise, the Democrats were caught unprepared by the special election for Ted Kennedy's Massachusetts senate seat, which they lost (taking them from a filibuster-proof 60-seat majority to 59, after which the Republicans accordingly filibustered everything and the Democrats didn't push hard enough to stop them/change the rules). They also seemed to just assume that hey, the country voted for Obama in 2008, they'd clearly do it again in 2010, and they didn't really hype up the ACA or campaign for it or anything like that. So they got shellacked to the tune of 60+ House seats lost in 2010, and then lost the Senate in 2014, allowing Mitch McConnell to flat-out blockade Merrick Garland's SCOTUS nomination (who Obama picked to fill Antonin Scalia's seat) and get away with it. Obama was also not nearly as assertive about nominating judges as Biden has been, though it's also the case that Trump hadn't yet packed the benches with an endless conveyor belt of unqualified uber-conservative hacks. Once again, I think this is a reflection of Obama's overall political inexperience and the fact that he felt he had to "play nice" or get pigeonholed as the "angry black guy," which he then did anyway. So it really was a catch-22.

Online Leftists always like to yelp about "Obama ordering a lot of drone strikes!!!", as if they a) know anything else about American foreign policy, b) are at all interested in criticizing Trump for using EVEN MORE (by like... a lot, and nearly starting WWIII when he killed the Iranian general with one), or c) ever consider the overall ungodly fucking mess that Obama was ALSO left with in Iraq and Afghanistan. I'm not about to defend or agree with that either, but it's disingenuous (as per usual with them) to suggest that that was the only thing Obama did during his presidency and/or that he should be judged on that alone. They also like to pretend that he faced no racism at all, that he could have just "codified Roe vs. Wade and didn't!", that there were no double standards in how he was treated by the press, the political establishment, and the American people, and so on.

So: overall, yes, I think Obama had good intentions and tried to do the right thing. He failed at certain major parts of that, both because of the Republicans and because he didn't have the experience to challenge them or know how to work around them, and because he was in an utterly impossible position. The intense white backlash that gave rise to Trump showed that contrary to what anyone liked to think about Obama's election heralding a "post-racial" era, it was back and more ugly and public than it had been in a long time. It was also surprising that our first black president was a Democrat, and not a Republican shill like Tim Scott and/or Clarence Thomas, who has been allowed to rise in the party only because he faithfully repeats all the maxims of the (white) GOP ruling class. So the sheer strength of Obama Derangement Syndrome, which persists today, has to figure into any appraisals of either what he did or what he could have reasonably been expected to accomplish, and I don't think people get that.

I take all of this shit personally.

When I was 15, I was raped by someone I dated and became pregnant. I could not access abortion without my parents permission due to my age. They are "pro-life" Catholics. I knew even if I had attempted to get one, it would have created an unsafe environment for me at home.

When I was 17, I had a miscarriage. I was on the pill and didn't even know I was pregnant.

When I was 21, I got pregnant with a Nexplanon implant in. I suffered with hyperemesis gravidarum for my entire pregnancy. I lost 80lbs, had to be hospitalized, and my stomach, esophagus, and teeth are permanently damaged from vomiting 40+ times a day every day for 9 months.

When I was 24, I got pregnant with a Mirena IUD in. My OBGYN jokingly called my eggs "Olympic-level escape artists."

When I was 25, I got a bilateral salpingectomy. I remember feeling relieved that my OBGYN at the time did the procedure without questioning me.

In all of these situations, I got "lucky." I turned out as okay as I could have possibly turned out every time. I have 3 really great kids that I love. My miscarriage did not require serious medical intervention. My deliveries were not complicated. I have gotten help for the PTSD I live with and mostly manage fairly well. I find ways to make it through tough days (like seeing what's happening right now on Twitter).

But you know what? Just because I survived it... doesn't mean it's been easy. And it also doesn't mean that other people should have to live through it, either.

I will never stop vocally supporting abortion. I will never stop vocally supporting reproductive rights.

This shit has been so fucking hard. Loving and caring about my kids while acknowledging that this is not the life I wanted for myself. Being grateful for them while also acknowledging the permanent damage to my mental and physical health. Recognizing that people have in the past used my story to promote their pro-forced birther bullshit. Nobody should be forced to do this. Ever.

I support choice. I support giving people agency over their own bodies and letting them make their own decisions. I support abortion for those who want one. I support pregnancy care for those who need it. I support policies that protect birthing people. I support IVF. I support abortion with no restrictions. I support research and development into birth control that works regardless of your sex or BMI. I support policies that support children and families.

The incoming administration wants to take away already limited resources for families and eliminate safe reproductive care. We cannot let them win. We cannot let them do this. It is important now more than ever that we keep fighting. I do not want my daughters to grow up in a world where they do not have agency over their own bodies.

This is how they ban abortion: stealthily, attacking one procedure at a time, and by one step at a time.

This comes at the same time male politicians in South Australia and Queensland are supporting bills to restrict abortion, only a few short years after abortion was decriminalised.

America. Home of the Christofascist! The conservative being the proprietors of sadism and disgust under a false mask of religion. Once again the backwoods heehaw hillbilly laws set a new low. They don’t give a fuck about the baby once it’s born, they only care about a clump of cells, most don’t even know where a vagina is located while all believe a woman’s place is in the kitchen. If it is any wonder where the pity should fall, it is for all of us, forced to live in a state recovering from the fallout of a fascist dictator who destroyed the balance of our highest court in hopes they would protect his own criminality.

“terf” you’re literally a pro-forced birther anti-feminist fhdhdhs i fucking hate the term terf bc we’ve got straight up anti-feminists using the term

[theivorybilledwoodpecker]

Forced birthers are saying Ashley, the 13 year old who was forced to give birth to her rapist's baby, deserved to be forced to give birth. They are saying it can be healing to be forced to give birth to a rapist's baby. They are saying she should have kept her legs closed.

Do not fucking tell me it is too harsh to wish them to obey the laws they passed and experience what they force on their victims.

Even most criminals understand the horror of hurting children. You wanna know why Bundy was always reluctant to talk about murdering kids, even though he was convicted for the murder of Kimberly Leach? Because pedos and child murderers don't do well in prison. He didn't want to draw attention to it because he knew other prisoners might decide to take revenge on him on his child victims' behalfs.

But forced birthers don't see it that way. They love hurting children. They've had over a year to see the pain and suffering their actions have caused, and they are overjoyed when they hear about forcing kids to give birth.

They chose to give up their humanity.

[still-day]

Fuck yes. I wish the people in the back CARED about what is true

Once again for those in the back:

[cimerran-714]

You are a fucking moron and I hope you know that pro-forced birther

Thank you!

[slut4thebroken]

I like genuinely dead ass do not understand pro forced birthers. Like literally wtf lmao. As someone who would very seriously consider suicide if getting an abortion wasn’t an option… what do they want afab to do?? Never have sex ever in their lives? Get a procedure done when doctors will straight up deny them??

Like be so fucking for real right now. I’m not even talking about cases of sa or abnormalities that will harm and or kill the mother. I genuinely- I do not get it. I don’t get how someone could feel so entitled over other peoples lives and bodies that they want to cause them physical and emotional harm. It is so fucking insane to me that people care so much about other people that they won’t ever even meet. Like what the fuck bro. Make it make sense (and no that was not an invitation. If you disagree with this post and comment about it I’ll just straight up block you lmao. I’m not going to argue when people are literally dying because of this)
