Trans women are 4x more likely to be raped than cis women. Stop making us the villains and it’d help all of us

Getting some real Emmett Till energy off that twitter post. Bonus points for doing a :1984: homage in the midst of a double-speak.

The 1984 bit is especially weird because she couldn’t even stick to the format. Like, short, 3-word sentences, “X is Y,” and she follows that with this unwieldy construction about a “penised individual.” She’s supposed to be a professional writer!

She’s following the path of Glinner and other British Terfs, where eventually trans people will be literally all she talks about. There’s something about that specific strain of transphobia, that it takes over your life completely, even if it means destroying your career and marriage.

Its my headcanon that all those kind of people are usually repressed transes and are just taking it out on everyone else.

This is not a good trope to repeat. I can understand the inclination, but it’s offensive to a lot of trans people.

I could see that. I’m trans myself and it’s a bit that I’ve thrown around with my friends for a while, but I could definately see that take.

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
