Valid criticism. 👆 Especially since we had trouble with transphobia lately.

Besides (often trans) ‘woke’ people criticizing trans people for things mostly unrelated to being trans the only other person you see bringing up gender-affirming plastic surgery like this is Nick Mullen.

I think kristina is trying to invoke the idea of “fuck you, I got mine”.

I understand it, its something people say a lot about transwomen on the internet, and I’m not saying its not a worthwhile thing to ever talk about, but it is a strange and uncomfortable thing to shoehorn into this critique which has nothing to do with how feminine contra is now or with transness at all

The way I see it it’s basically the same as talking about “rich white gays” like Buttigieg. Contrasting the fact that they belong to a traditionally oppressed minority with the fact that they themselves aren’t oppressed and therefore become traitors to their peers and further right than the average member of that minority.

Well you said the words ‘material conditions’ and ‘intersectionality’ and called all of your detractors cis so I guess you must be right and my immediate visceral reaction to your title is invalid. You have debated me into a corner, facts truely do not care about my feelings

No, see, because she makes a YouTube which is popular to finance surgery. And that’s… uh… bad?

IDK. I guess people are still upset because Natalie used the V-word in her last video.

It’s just another edition of “We Live In A Society”.

People with the highest profiles enjoy the highest incomes. So we need to do what exactly? Discourage people from earning money via social media? Impose mandatory waiting periods on trans-surgery, so everyone can suffer equally? Arbitrarily shame people for doing the thing that everyone else in the community is trying to achieve?

All because a Transwoman is dunking on the d-tier punditry of a prior decade on Twitter?

Wtf?

This is the same toxic reactionary attitude I see in the red-pilled corners of Reddit. It’s Michelle Malkin levels of discourse. Just finding any fucking thing to villainize. Why not creep outside Natalie’s window and complain about her countertops while you’re at it?

Create post

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
