In season 1 of Justice League, there is an episode called "Fury". This could have been a great episode, if the subject matter wasn't just so misogynistic.
In this episode, Aresia, an Amazon, creates a virus that only affects men. In doing so, it highlights all the incredible women who does the same job and better as them but who are invisible because they are women.
Obviously they make Aresia, crazy, hysterical, the super villain of the episode to be destroyed at all costs.
''mope, mope, a woman is a misandrist so she will destroy the entire humanity'' when in all the galaxies (on absolutely all the planets in all the episodes) the problem is indeed the behavior of men and males and that the only societies that function are those of women exclusively. It was cool to have Amazons, until I realized that they only serve to demonize and dehumanize women who obviously have the nerve to recognize the patriarchy. And it wasn't even the entire humanity, just men.
Usually, we have Wonder Woman (Diana) who warns women against men, protects them when they engage in sexual harassment, street harassment, coercion, manipulation, etc. She's also a critical of make up, marital life, marriage, having relationships with men etc. An icon. And there, the whole moral of the story of the episode is to say ''not all men''.
This is really the moral of the story, because the plot's end of the episode is the Queen of the Amazons (Hyppolyta) who tells Aresia that ONE day in ALL the history of humanity, ONE man saved her. He saved her from violent men, who transformed women into sex slaves, before that, she was already a survivor of the war of men who had genocided her villages, some rapes against women too, etc. JUST MEN KILLING AND MASS RAPING.
But since ONLY ONE, ONE DAY, apparently did just ONE good deed, which let's face it, is NORMAL behavior!!!
Not good, not bad, NORMAL. The bare minimum.
This makes him the hero and her the villain.
The Amazons live among women, no man is allowed to set foot on the land of Temyscira, by law. They have observed men from afar, sometimes forced up close, they are feminist and realistic when it comes to the situation of the evolution of our planet and the place of men and patriarchy in the responsibility for these developments.
Knowing this, and worse, saying it openly to other women, protecting them from men, makes them BAD. But not in the sense of not nice but inhumane, horrible and VILE.
This is one of the rare episodes we get to see other Amazons who are BADASS WARRIORS GODDESSES but it turned them into sick unrealistic villains.
When they are the most realistic on the entire show. They are marking FACTS.
I am so proud of them but I HATE with all my heart how they did them dirty for daring to say the truth about men.
AND Aresia is fully clothed, not hanging around, saving the world from men in a underwear but clothed, less sexualised then Diana.
Aresia can wear flat shoes, a full clothes costume but she's the villain.
While Diana is in underwear and heels.
I also noticed that she has 2 allied, one with a full practical clothes, and another one in underwear too. One with short hair and the other with long hair.
Guess who betrayed her for men and her not all men speech? And who stayed with her?
I don't remember if the betrayal of Star Fire (in the middle) was part of Aresia's plans tho but that's not my point.
Anyway HAIL ARESIA 👑 !! 🛐
Long live Aresia in our hearts!
May her wisdom guides us in this man's world!
She showed us the ways. 🛐

a while ago i saw someone with an Israel flag emoji in their profile post 'Wonder Woman is on our side' after galgadot's recent actions(if you don't know,her recent actions being screening military propaganda as all this is happening right now. now you know)and it broke my heart to be honest. so i drew this in response.
now OBVIOUSLY the worst part of what is happening is definitely not the misappropriation of a fictional character. but i suppose i felt like this is an aspect i could specifically approach as someone who's always drawing superheroes, and to use it as a jumping board to talk about the important idea. if Wonder Woman was real,the flag she'd wave is that of Palestine. not of America. and definitely not of Israel.
she's not real,but sometimes we'll use her image to portray an idea. after all that is why we read,watch and love her. for the precious ideals she represents.
the ideals of Justice. of Peace. of Freedom. of Truth.
newsflash,delusional bigots. THAT is why superheroes were created. to stand up to injustice. how can someone claim to be a fan while publicly and comfortably siding with the oppressor. and tragically we have so many siding with oppression and hate.
yeah we're all drowning in propaganda and lies but that isn't even an excuse anymore. when you see people dying and the people seeking to eradicate them openly do so and practically brag about it as the so-called free world watches,and supports these atrocities,that is just humanity lost.

Why would this apply to ‘terfs’?
it's infuriating that even the concept of themyscira as a women exclusive space can't exist without being made about men with all the stupid "wow a whole island full of beautiful women and i'll be the first man they've ever seen" jokes that get made both as meta commentary and within the canon itself like SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP WOMEN DON'T EXIST FOR YOU! IT'S NOT FOR YOU!!! GO AWAY!!!! and that also applies to terfs. don't even LOOK at this post if you're a terf. go away.

been seeing other women saying this too but I cannot stress enough how important it is to not base all of your radfem beliefs on “women = good people 100% of the time, men = bad people 100% of the time” for several reasons but particularly because that’s just not a strong foundation for anything to be built upon. that will make it so that the moment you meet a man who is nice or a woman isn’t, your entire belief system will crumble.
you’re going to meet men who are nice people and you’re going to meet women who are incredibly abusive people, neither of those things change the fact that all women deserve complete liberation from male control.

Today marks one year anniversary of 2022 Iranian uprising against the oppressive Islamic Republic regime. An uprising that started with the brutal murder of a young kurd woman, Mahsa Jina Amini, for "inappropriate hijab".
For the past couple of weeks, the regime has prepared their forces to beat down any new movement immediately. The streets of Tehran and many other cities are lined with anti riot forces and police cars. In Saqez, the home city of Amini family, they've stationed the army around the city to massacre people in case they try to start another wave of protest. Mahsa's father has been arrested alongside some family members of other last year uprising martyrs.
There has been small protesting gatherings in Iran in the last two days, there has already been some arrests and violent crackdowns on protesters. I hear people chanting from my neighborhood homes. The government would commit as many bloodbaths as it takes to secure their position, but you can't beat people into obedience when they hate you from the bottom of their hearts.

Thinking about that Ruth Bader Ginsburg quote that's like "When I'm sometimes asked when will there be enough [women on the Supreme Court] and I say, 'When there are nine,' people are shocked. But there'd been nine men, and nobody's ever raised a question about that." You can apply this to everything, from members of governments to the authors whose books you read. Men are centered almost everywhere and have been for years. Equality doesn't have to be 50% men and 50% women. It can be 100% women to balance the decades when it was 100% men. Choose women's liberation and choose only women.

it takes at most 3 seconds of thinking to realize that it’s impossible for misogyny to be based on anything but the reality of femaleness. idk how else to explain why little infant girls are choked, drowned, raped, cut up, dehumanized, banned from education, groomed into a role as some man’s personal servant, if it’s all based on a set of pronouns that they aren’t even grown enough to verbalize yet. as if anyone waited until little baby girls settled on a gender identity before going ahead with the decision to work her to death like a cow. what a waste of anyone’s fucking time

“but there’s beauty standards for men too! men are punished for not being masculine!” yeah but men’s natural bodies are considered masculine. and women’s natural bodies are considered masculine. not shaving on a man is masculine, and not shaving on a woman is also masculine. do you see the difference? men are discouraged from performing extra beauty rituals whereas women are discouraged from being their natural selves. women are expected to perform rituals to comply with societal gender roles whereas men are expected to be their natural selves.
