Oh would you look at that, you're actually correct about the original usage of the flag. I should've seen that coming, since y'all also love appropriating feminism.

And we do agree on something: the labrys flag is a lesbian flag and not a radfem flag. I never claimed it was the latter, but rather radfems have appropriated it; unfortunately there are lesbian radfems, and they tend to use the labrys flag. Said usage is so common that people have begun associating it with the lesbian radfem crowd, which is something I'm against. I'll say it again: TERFs don't deserve shit.

Symbols that were created to represent love and acceptance don't deserve to be sullied by dumbasses who wrap their ignorance in a flowery ribbon of 'feminism' to make themselves look better.

Reminder that TERFs don't deserve shit. Take back the labrys flag, remove the genderqueer flag from their grimy fingers. They think they can use the community's symbols for their bullshit and we can't just accept it. We can't just go 'oh, the labrys flag is a radfem symbol' cuz it ISN'T; it's been appropriated much like the swastika has been appropriated by nazis. Bigotry is uncreative, after all.

I'm sick and fucking tired of people not fucking remembering that one of radfems first targets were BUTCHES. It was about dykes being masculine and hating that masculinity. You can find dozens of accounts from all the way back in the 70s of radfems targeting cis and trans butches alike. They steal from butches. They stole our fucking flag. They appropriated androgyny and drove a divide between butches and lesbians that identified as androgynous for YEARS. Don't you fucking DARE conflate being butch with being a terf or a radfem. If you knew an ounce of your history you'd know that radical feminism started as a movement to remove butches from the community completely, and also that butches/transmascs/drag kings and transfems/drag queens have a long history of solidarity, love, and trust considering the fact we're INCESSANTLY demonized even within our own communities. Butch/femme include transfemmes, it always will and ALWAYS has.

no, dear transphobes. I do not want your cis kids to be trans and go though surgeries when they're only 10. I want our trans kids, to become trans adults. I want them to have a better, safer future. I don't want to hear about another suicide by a trans minor, because they were so severely bullied and couldn't take it anymore. I don't want to hear about another trans teenager being murdered, just because they exist. if you can't understand such simple thing as this, there is something really wrong with you.

The original point of my post was to say we shouldn't associate the labrys flag with TERFs, but obviously that has gone over your head. Let me word it clearer: just because radfem lesbians commonly use the labrys flag, doesn't mean we should associate the flag with radfems. Is that better? I'm against the association, not the fact that radfems use the flag.

I have also already acknowledged my error in claiming that the suffragette flag was ripping off the genderqueer flag; I was only aware of the 'women won't wheesht' usage of the flag. Now that I know that TERFs actually took it from somewhere else, I have let go of the claim that TERFs stole the flag from genderqueer people.

As for your point about 'brands of feminism', feminism isn't supposed to hurt women, and yet... that's all radfems seem to do. By all means, though, continue to call yourselves feminists; I am not one to police labels.

Anyway, this was fun but the little pingpong game of 'you're wrong lol' has lost my interest. You've overstayed your welcome, I'm afraid.

Reminder that TERFs don't deserve shit. Take back the labrys flag, remove the genderqueer flag from their grimy fingers.

I try not to interact with TERFs cuz it's literally a waste of time and mental energy, but sometimes I cannot help myself: I have to turn them into ash, man
