Leave It To A TERF To Harass Others Just For Simply Existing... One Of Them Being A Minor.

TERFs and other transphobes keep trying to drag us all backwards and punish women. I’m so fucking sick of their hateful shit. 

apparently this isn’t super common knowledge but it came up in the decaygirl doc so avoid anyone using the word “troon”. it’s a portmanteau of “trans” and “goon” and is used by all sorts of wildly transphobic and transmisogynistic circles varying from alt-right forums to terfs. (and is especially popular on the site kiwifarms)

“A TERF is a white supremacist whose gateway to white supremacy is anti-trans bigotry, instead of anti-Semitism or anti-Blackness or anti-migration or misogyny. As with any gateway, many people engaging in this ideology may not be aware of their proximity to white supremacy. This is the standard radicalization pathway that we have seen over and over and over with, for example, anti-Islamic sentiment. Personally, [I] find it is most comparable to how anti-Semitism gateways are used. Often, we see white supremacists exploiting legitimate grievances with the financial systems by turning into an anti-Semitic issue. White supremacists take legitimately frustrated and class-oppressed people’s anger at banks, and carefully plant the seeds of anti-Semitism. They’ll point out the irrefutable fact that there exist Jewish people in executive positions in banking and vilely twist this. TERFs take a legitimate grievance: patriarchal oppression of women and homophobia and turn it into a movement based on systematic exclusion of a specific class of people. This is the redpill. [We] need to stop the good-faith engagements with their ideology and start treating it like the gateway to white supremacy that it is.”

I’m honestly amazed by the fact that lesbians on tumblr got our shit together and (more or less) agreed on the new lesbian community flag, and now it’s becoming actually recognized off of just tumblr to the point where I’m starting to see it used in generic clipart when I’m putting together flyers at work. genuinely used to seriously doubt whether it would break the tumblr culture bubble, but it did and I think that’s so cool

[ID: various clipart involving the five-stripe Community Lesbian Flag, including women holding the flag, hands holding the flag, women wearing the flag as a cape, and a dress, hat, and coffee mug with the flag colors.]

I might be taking this blog down because I have been getting encouraging death, rape, and self harm threats from terfs on here.
