People Who are like "men oppress women that's basic feminism" no nuance amuse me cause it's like that's some wonderful first and maybe second wave feminism. Do you want a suffragette sash and to campaign for votes for white women because of how it's "unfair" that black men were "given" the right to vote but not white women? Do you want a copy of sojourner truths famous speach so you can rewrite it to seem "less civilized"? Cause that's how you're acting, anti intersectional white cis feminist talking point copiers.

Yeah, like.

Historically cishet White women were zero percent oppressed by Black men. Even ignoring the argument that you can seperate them being Black from them being men in how they experience oppression, if you can understand that it is in fact possible for some men to be outside the wider White cishetpatriarchy you should be able to understand that the same is true of trans men.

And you can say "but they have power over Black women" and that's true to a very limited extent, but three things:

That was never reflected in the White cisheteropatriarchy at all until reletively recently, being purely intracommunity.

Race and gender are two different concepts. Trans women and trans men experience oppression on the same axis.

As I always maintain, trans women and trans men are on the same 'level' - but people who are misogynistic are overwhelmingly likely to percieve trans men as women even within the queer community. They may or may not also be the same way with trans women, and ironically they'd still be transmisogynistic for excluding them.

I said this like, just the other day, but "sex-based oppression" is a bad because of how it focuses too much on that aspect and is prone to framing trans women as having privilege WE don't, but it's also stupid sas fuck to act like trans women are catching strays - strays that are not one bit less horrific, not one bit less painful of a struggle to deal with daily, but strays nonetheless. No one would give a fuck about people AMAB wearing lipstick if it wasn't historically engraved into most of humanity as being associated with people AFAB.

So GIVEN all that...no, just like trans women, trans men are not given male privilege either because they are, I cannot stress this enough, not even seen as men in the first place.

It's almost definitionally impossible for a trans man to have male privilege, not because he isn't a man, but because the system was designed to be cissexist in the first place, and therefore when it decides who to grant power to is never going to go with either trans women or trans men, because we've corrupted ourselves with the curse people AFAB inherited.

(anyone may reblog this <3 I feel like I need to say this when I get realy aggressive lmao please do not stay in your lane)

Dear Sub-Human Filth, I'm appealing to all of you stupid idiots to vote Democrat in 2018. That is if you have the basic education enough to read a ballot, anyway. I understand the majority of you racist rednecks can't even read this post, though. But those who can, please pass my message on to the rest of your inbred family. We Democrats are morally, culturally and intellectually superior to you in every way. I will qualify myself by noting that I have a Liberal Arts degree from a college, which you obviously have never been to, if you even know what one is. I also have a black friend. I have been told by several professors that everything you hold dear is terrible. Therefore you, personally, are also terrible. I don't know you, but I know that you're racist. I also know that you hate gay people and still get scared during lightning storms. The religion which you hold closely, greatly believe in, and which brings you comfort--you are wrong because I'm smarter than you and I'm telling you so. It is one of the many reasons why you are stupid and I'm better than you. You see, us Democrats want a system which helps everyone in the world. Our system is designed around love and kindness to everyone. If you don't agree, I hate you. It's not too late to change. If you knew your history, which of course you don't, you'll remember a time in America when Indians were dragged away from their homes and forced to assimilate into white society. Well, we want to change that kind of behaviour (sorry for my spelling, as I'm not from your country) by making sure you go to college and have a small apartment in a big, busy coastal city, where you belong. That will help you rid yourselves of your backward, incorrect culture and way of thinking. We'll do everything we can to make sure you agree with us and say all the right things and not be brainwashed against thinking the same way we do. All of you stupid, backward, redneck, racist, homophobic, uneducated yokels need to realize we're trying to build a classless society where we all get to live in harmony with each other, where we're all equal. If you only understood that you wouldn't be so much worse of a person than I am. So please vote Democrat. Help me help you, you worthless motherfuckers
