#not trying to police labels but

o yeah if you're bisexual but you hate all (and feel no Attraction to non fictional) men , you're probably not bisexual. just so you're aware

[nepotisim]

I'm so tired of phrases like "anti-woke". Just say you're a racist/homophobic weirdo.

the collective psychosis that leads people to make posts like these

as if i didnt need more reasons to hate freddit btw

I relatively rarely get misgendered by cis dyadic people, especially ones that claim to be allies. Ive almost never been able to talk a dyadic trans person into respecting my identity. This is fucked up

saw an exclusionist post so here's a reminder

specifically in reference to transmasc lesbians and trying to draw lines in the sand on who can and can't claim the lesbian label, about how being a lesbian is exclusive of loving men, with someone referring to the people they're attempting to exclude as "fandom gremlin transmascs and neo-mogai crazies."

I don't have the spoons for a proper response but i do feel like i need to make something clear.

on this blog we support fucky genders, fandom gremlin transmascs, and neo-mogai crazies. reblog if u love ur fellow fandom gremlin and neo-mogai crazy queers.

its been a few days now and i just want to say if you are going to claim yourself to be an anarchist (especially if you put it in any socmed bio for some reason), you have to AT LEAST not police people.

if someone is doing something, or engaging with something, or hell even saying something you have no right to tell them to stop if they aren't harming someone else. if they are in some way harming themselves, you still have no right to police what they do. it doesn't matter if it makes you uncomfortable, or if its not something you would do/say. if you are truly an anarchist then you should believe that all humans deserve autonomy and a right to do what they want to do with their body, time, and words.

this seems really fucking basic to me, but lately i've seen (on twitter and tumblr) lots of people with either "acab" "antifa" or "anarchist" in their bio absolutely policing the shit out of what people do, say, or even like. its odd and a bit tiring. if you can't handle letting people do their own thing, then you simply aren't an anarchist and thats okay. but if you do actually read theory and you do believe anarchism is for you, then please for the love god let go of the cop in your head

random oc facts, of the "they have problems" flavor

Another thing about Luigi Mangione.

Its yet to be proven he was the killer. There are details about the arrest that sound absurd and many people suspect the cops are just trying to pin it on him.

A lot of stuff has been dug up about him from his social media that people say establishes motive and lends credence toward him being the assassin. But I would challenge you to consider that maybe he's just one of many, many people fucked over by our system, and that his medical woes are symptomatic of simply living under this system. Other than fitting the roughest approximation of the shooter's description, there is nothing unique in a man who has suffered immensely due to the inhumane health insurance industry.

What i am saying is, they could have arrested any skinny white guy and we would have had an equal likelihood to find on his social media evidence for him having a problem with the Healthcare industry. We all have problems with the industry, we all hate those leeches, that's why people immediately started celebrating the UHC CEO'S death. We all hate this system, everyone in the fucking country has motive in this crime.

For this reason, remember that Luigi Mangione is innocent until proven guilty. And furthermore, remember that not all guilty verdicts are legitimate, there is an immense amount of police and court corruption in this country that makes even seemingly cut and dry cases questionable and I don't consider this one cut and dry. Innocent people go to prison all the time. Innocent people are handed down death sentences all the time. Guilt is an easy thing to conjure in a courtroom, as are guilty pleas conjured in an interrogation room.

When you consign a man like Luigi Mangione to guilt before he has even been to trial you strengthen the system that murders black men in cold blood and labels them criminals post mortem to justify it. You strengthen a system where Kyle Rittenhouse and Daniel Penny can murder with impunity, be acquited of all wrongdoing, and be called heroes because they killed people the state doesn't value.

Don't comply with power ahead of time.

ok so now that finnster's come out as genderfluid and started taking hrt can we stop trying to force people to choose labels and define their identity. everyone's always talking about support for queer people with unconventional presentations and identities but when someone's not sure about what their gender identity actually is they get criticized for it. finn said in his video that part of the reason why he took so long with coming out was because he wasn't sure what label actually applied to him (and he still isn't even sure if genderfluid feels like the right label for him) and the debate surrounding it was making him uncomfortable. which kind of sucks tbh. idk i dont like how much identity policing ive seen around them it feels like people just aren't comfortable with 'weird' gender presentation

[bigpuppycowboy]

It's quite aggravating to watch cis queers trying to classify trans people's attraction as they see fit (especially whether they're binary or have transitioned), because it pops their little heads when you're trans and still consider your attraction to the opposite gender gay. Sorry you feel that way, have you tried viewing queerness as a personal experience instead of x and y?

every time i see someone say "oh well if you want to listen to real nonbinary/trans/queer artists, listen to xyz" in response to any serious discussion of gerard's gender i get pissed off. like who died and many you the faggot king who decides if someone "really counts" as a queer person ?
