Sick of radical feminism's racism problem

We're assholes for not thinking white men are less misogynistic because they come from some superior european culture?

Blocking me for calling out colonisation as the reason why so many 'cultures' are still backwards unlike the 'good' cultures which have progressed off of the death, rape, slavery and natural resources of nations they colonised is racist. Especially while that system is still in place.

I can't really be bothered responding to this properly so...

"It's not genocide cuz we still give some food and electricity." How fucking evil can these demons get? They think the rest of us are fools.

what the fuck is this insane level of genocide denialism. they weren’t given any food or electricity or water for like a month and now are getting minimal amounts of both and tens of thousands of palestinian civilians have been murdered and their land has been gradually taken of them and millions of them are displaced and and and- but it’s not a genocide bc they’re not completely starving??? does she know that using this argument would also mean arguing that jewish people didn’t face a genocide in the holocaust bc they were fed scraps?

i can’t imagine arguing something so callous and ridiculous like this. what marks a genocide is the intent and action towards the annihilation of a population. israeli officials have expressed both intent and are acting on it.

“many unfortunately died” yeah they just magically die from the mistreatment? or is there perhaps a word for when your death is caused by someone exerting deadly violence? maybe a word like… killed? murdered?

also “israelis aren’t colonisers because the colonisers of palestinians actually let jewish people migrate 75+ years ago” is… a bizarre argument. so are the israelis who are recent settlers colonisers then? how about them expanding settlements even on what is legally palestinian land & enabling that? how about expelling a significant portion of palestinians in 1948 and taking their homes and lands despite the british not co-signing that, is that now colonisation? there was already a jewish population in the country and you’ll find that jewish migration to palestine was seemingly something the overall population did not mind until the intent of this migration being creating a separate jewish state and taking more than 50% of palestinian land to provide it to a smaller jewish population, the expressed fact from palestinians that they overwhelmingly did not want more than half of their country given to another population and the fact that it happened by force and violence anyways is very blatant colonisation, actually.

if france allowed me and everyone of my ethnicity to gradually enter france and we then took over parts of france and kicked out french people and eventually it got to the point where like 50% of france’s native population is no longer in france and we then call the country Gaul and the remaining minority french are then under our total control, and we kick them out of their own homes and put in random settlers from random countries (but ofc only of the same ethnicity as me) in their place and set up a racial apartheid system.. would that not be colonialism? would it be ok if i immigrated legally?

these justifications can be used to dismiss so many genocides and instances of colonialism. they aren’t looking at the actual definitions of the terms, they’re creating an entirely different criteria (and a pretty skewed-in-favour-of-colonisers-&-genocide-enactors) in order to defend their previously held position.

This is such bs. We don't cry socialisation when it comes to men yet you have so much sympathy when it comes to racists?

If it's so fucking easy for for white women to become racist why tf are you guys so angry when men become misogynists at the slightest annoyance?

Racism was not created to divide women lol. White people just thought of everyone else as subhuman.

WOC are always supporting white women's rights so idk wtf you're talking about.

If you believe white women face less misogyny than woc, you shouldn’t call yourself a feminist as you are too naive to understand how patriarchy works. White privilege doesn’t exist when it comes to women facing sexism and oppression. Under the patriarchy, all women are equally oppressed regardless of their financial status, social status, colour of the skin, race, religion or ethnicity. No rich woman is less of a victim than a poor or middle-class woman just because she has a lot of money, no famous woman is less of a victim than another woman who is not a popular celebrity, similarly, no white woman is less of a victim than a woman of colour just because she’s white. Racism is a social construct created by patriarchy to divide women. On one side, racist white women (who are socialised by the system to believe being white makes them superior) exclude woc from their feminism, and in retaliation to that some woc cry about "white women tears" when they see them facing misogyny which in turn, again, fuels up the rage of white women and they become more hateful towards woc. This is what patriarchy wants. It wants to divide women by instilling hatred between us to pave an easy path for men to oppress women. So before you choose to ignore any woman’s suffering, keep in mind that by doing so you’re making it easy for the misogynists.

some times i look at terf blogs just curious about wtf kind of Drama is going on cause "radfem" tumblr is constantly exploding when one of their buddies turns out to be a horrible person.............in a way that affects them personally

Like last time there was a whole thing over a woman needing funds for an abortion and getting harassed by other "radfems" over it because "she chose to have sex with a man"

now some person is saying that although all men are bad, white men are inherently safer and less violent than men of color, and a bunch of people are defending them and its a total shit show

There is nothing i could say about this that would communicate more than just the posts themselves

That's Racism. You Just Described Racism. It Does Not Stop Being Racism because you believe there are real differences between how violent different ethnicities are. That Is The Racism

Miscellaneous other rancid takes within a few reblog chain links of the above

this person had another post like "why are we funding ozempic when you can just lose weight by replacing all the fast food in your diet with vegetables? it's easy!"

zero people were burned at the stake at salem.

...

okay but how do I even BEGIN to extract the infected ingrown toenail of stupid that this post nauseatingly embodies. Terfs have this whole genre of post that mourns every devastating historical evil as an atrocity "men" perpetrated, caused by "patriarchy/male violence."

Sure. Whatever. Slavery in Britain and the southeastern USA, (the only places slavery existed), the Holocaust, that was "male violence," caused by men, because men are violent and violence is male. Women are definitionally incapable of violence and have never ever ever abused power over others and the world is made of pudding.

Out of the 19 people executed at Salem, by hanging, 5 of them were men. This doesn't matter because facts don't matter, what matters is that the Salem witch trials are the example of violence prompted by alleged "witchcraft" that you can remember without googling it, and in the deeply symbolic mythology of your ass backwards brain, violence against alleged "witchcraft" is always ACTUALLY patriarchal retaliation against Women's Knowledge, which is always ACTUALLY an ancient genocide of women that transcends culture, which by the way is what you're experiencing when people are mean to you online.

Therefore the Salem witch trials, an event with fewer casualties than the Boston molasses flood, is similar in significance to the Holocaust.

Wow. Such biological reality. Very scientific facts.

[hoperambling]

YKNOW WHAT. I've been sitting on it too long. too many of yalls discussions of gender basically just admit you don't actually see black men as men, or you don't see them as people at all.

"Men don't get punished for being masculine" unless they're black

"Men don't have to be afraid walking home alone at night" unless they're black.

"Men don't have to worry about the doctor not taking them seriously" unless they're black.

"Men don't have to worry about being assaulted and then ignored by the police/other authority figure" DO YOU EVEN HEAR YOURSELF

[redditreceipts]

here are some more examples I've noticed:

[recovering-womanhood]

I am fucking SICK of people transvestigating WOC athletes. Can y’all cool it with the racism for a fucking minute? Elevated T levels does not make her a man. It’s possible that she’s intersex, but that isn’t confirmed and ALSO doesn’t make her a man. She is NOT TRANSGENDER. Stop insulting her appearance. White woman tears have forever accused WOC of being men because “they couldn’t possibly be that much better than me”. I’m sick of it.

[insectfem]

when you say "black men are more violent than white men," you are also saying "black women are more violent than white women." if you equate blackness with violence, there's no way that you can claim sisterhood and solidarity with black women. if you are "racist to black men," you are one black woman disagreeing with you away from saying you hate black people. yall can use your brains enough to understand that misogyny perpetrated against white women still affects non white women. why can't you apply that to racism? is it because you're a selfish white person who has never seen black and brown people as equal to you? no matter how involved with leftism you claim you are? probably

[womenaremypriority]

YouTube comments are a cesspool. Reading any comment section about immigration is dystopian, especially when they talk about sexual crimes against women. Do they care about the recent French case where a women was raped by scores of men, including her husband for 10 years, now that there’s no immigrant to blame? That’s just ~a few bad apples~ that he managed to find? White man can be judged as individuals, while migrants can’t? I see. The truth is it’s men everywhere, and men fearmongering about this don’t care about women.

[tra-archive]

Will TRAs ever stop comparing black women to males

[djuvlipen]

"What happened in Germany since full legalisation? Today the police say that only 10% of the women have no pimp. About 90% of the women are migrants from very poor countries, mostly Romania and Bulgaria.

What we see is that prostitution is a very racist system. It is usually the racially discriminated women who enter prostitution – like Roma women from Romania. And prostitution itself is racist too because it fetishizes ethnicity. We have brothels that have a kind of apartheid system when it comes to the women. You go to the first floor for the Romanian women. You go to the second floor for Asian women. You go to the third floor for African women.

We see that prostitution in Germany makes sex buyers more racist. They use very racist and sexist slurs against women and they try to offer refugee women from Syria money for sex.

To allow prostitution makes a country more racist because the sex buyers who, for example, buy Asian women won’t see other non-prostituted Asian women as human. This is what we see. It’s as if we are still a colonialist country.

Legalisation normalises prostitution. For example, we had a TV show that was called ‘Pimp My Brothel’ where a brothel keeper who’s now in jail for human trafficking went into brothels to tell them what they could do better.

Legalisation brings more capitalism into prostitution because the women are the product and are only there to serve the client. So, legalisation strengthens the client’s rights. We even had a court case. There was a girl, I think she was 19, and her punter had not orgasmed and went to court over that. She had to pay him money because he wasn’t able to orgasm with her.

This is what legalisation does."

[boreal-sea]

also idk if that person cares to hear it but...... men of color exist. they exist, and the stereotypes of men being inherently aggressive and violent hurt them much more than they do white men. white women constantly weaponize that. people love comparing women shitting on men to poc shitting on white people but absolutely refuse to add in the part about how their radfem-lite rhetoric is racist as fuck. either you don't even consider them part of the conversation when you generalize "men" or you don't care about the harm your words can do them, either way, it's racist.

Exactly.

"Men aren't oppressed" - really? No man anywhere is oppressed? Men of color apparently just evaporate when racism gets discussed by radfems.

[archive-blep]

I genuinely still don’t get how we can pretty much universally recognize that what Rachel Dolezal did was delusional and racist to Black people, but nobody can explain how that’s any different from what transwomen are doing to women right now

[hadesoftheladies]

men are so annoying my god. they have some of the dumbest takes on women's sports its obvious how disingenuous they are. "wnba players are jealous of caitlyn clark" and all most of them were saying was that caitlyn has a lot to learn playing professional basketball because it's a genuinely tough game and they hope she succeeds. men just keep belittling how skilled a lot of wnba players are and have been until caitlyn clark. they make fun of the wnba without watching it and then act like they know everything and declare caitlyn the sole saviour of the wnba like we haven't had legends like Elena Delle Donne or A'ja Wilson dominating the game. EMBARASSING!

ALSO they are RIGHT to complain about the racism since most brand deals and sponsorships for wnba players are white women. im happy that female athletes are winning and getting money, but it's telling when 70% of the basketball league are black women and most of the sponsorships are held by white women.

the way these goons take out the nuance and the humanity when discussing women's sports and reduce it to infantile squabbles of jealousy just shows how underdeveloped their brains are. like i know you men like inventing drama out of nowhere, but can you just stick to discussing stats? you're so cringe fr.

anyways!

I can't wait to see Stewie for New York Liberty on the court! Las Vegas Aces, Chicago Sky, Indiana Fever and the Washington Mystics are about to give us one hell of a season coming this May 14th. I'M SO HYPED!

Here are the women to watch out for (IMO because I'm biased and not in order of skill)

#1. Breanna Stewart (Stewie) (New York Liberty)

I pledge allegiance. Sincerely. She's so fun on court and weaves between players like that scene in Korra when she had to learn air-bending by evading spinning doors. I can't wait to see her play! (Next to her wife I'm her no# 1 fan don't joke around with me). Check some of her playing out here.

Also, here's a video of her eating spicy wings and barely surviving (while telling her story):

#2. Angel Reese (Chicago Sky)

After an amazing career in college basketball, Reese finally got drafted to the Chicago Sky WNBA team early this year. She's gotten a lot of hate for being justifiably boastful about her skills but she's remained a strong leader for her teammates and had a positive impact on girls and women everywhere. This is her first season in the WNBA and you can expect a show from her! Check some of her highlights here!

Here's a video explaining why she's so freaking iconic:

#3. Aaliyah Edwards (Washington Mystics)

One of the top picks of this year's WNBA draft, Aaliyah has been a star player for UCONN for years. She is one of the highest rated draft picks of the season! This will be her first season on the WNBA playing for the Washington Mystics. Her rebounds and offences are amazing to witness. Watch her highlights here.

#4. A'ja Wilson (Las Vegas Aces)

One of WNBA's modern GOAT'S. A'ja IS INSANE. She intimidates everyone on court and then the court itself. I literally saw the basketball hoop shaking when she looked at it during one of her games! I swear. It peed itself. Her wingspan and strength make her so formidable like y'all just have to watch herrrr!! Oh yeah, and she won the championship and several MVP titles. Check her out here!

#5. Caitlyn Clark (Indiana Fever)

Does she really need an introduction? Her career in college basketball has been spectacular and special for women's sports everywhere! She was breaking records in HIGH SCHOOL! This is going to be her first season in the WNBA and more eyes than ever will be on the game because of her! Check some of her highlights playing for Iowa here.

#6. Rickea Jackson (Los Angeles Sparks)

While playing small-forward on her college team, Rickea made a name for herself as one of the most aggressive offensive players in women's college basketball today! She's strong and fast and alert and is genuine fun to watch. You won't want to miss out on her debut into the WNBA for the LA Sparks! Watch her game highlights here.

#7. Kelsey Plum (Las Vegas Aces)

Kesley Plum is just one of my favorite athletes of all time! She's so dedicated to her team and the people in her life and it shows. Her joy is so infectious! She is also an incredibly, impressively strong and SKILLED athlete! And she was a big reason why LVA won the season last year. (And hallelujah she's divorcing her dumbass husband rn! hopefully the dead weight makes her an even stronger player!). Watch some of her highlights here.

AND CHECK OUT THIS VIRAL VIDEO OF HER THROWING A T-SHIRT TO HER FATHER WHO IS FAR UP IN THE BLEACHERS!

#8. Sabrina Ionescu

Sabrina and Stewie are an unstoppable duo! Watching them play is electric for me! WHEW! Sabrina has made WNBA history with idek how many records! She is the top in the league in assists, triple-doubles, and steals. SHE'S INSANE!!! SHE'S FUCKING RABID!!!! See for yourself here!

Watch her break the all-time three point record like it's nothing here:

#9. Cameron Brink

Cameron Brink debuts in this season of the WNBA for the Sparks! Cameron has had an amazing college career, but is especially known for her strong defence (and being the god-sister of Stephen Curry). She's bound to have a promising season. Watch some of her highlights here.

The strongest teams (IMO) seem to the Aces, the Mystics, the Sparks and New York Liberty. But there are also strong players in teams like Indiana Fever, Dallas Wings and Minnesota Lynx.

If you don't know which team to support, you could just pick your favourite athlete and choose their team. Some people like underdog teams and some people like top dog teams. Based on last season, I'd consider Indiana Fever an underdog team and Las Vegas Aces the top dog team (they won last season). In terms of best teams? LVA players are SEAMLESS. They move like water and it's magical to watch. But so are the Liberties and the Mystics! I genuinely don't know who to pick between those three.

If any of you gyns watch WNBA, please tell me who you're supporting this season and why!

Anybody who wants to start the season with me in May 14th, comment or reblog and maybe we can organize a discord for it! I'd love to watch this with you guys! And I'm all up for team rivalries.

[zurigasungama]

Some people are just full of hate and are constantly looking for an "acceptable target" to dump it on. It's our duty as a society to remind them there's no such person.
