That reasoning is one tiny step removed from “there are no Native Americans, they moved there during the ice age” (actual line from an English teacher of mine btw) or “you can’t do colonialism in Africa, all of humanity comes from there”.
Let’s not even begin on intra-Jewish racism against Mizrahi Jews in Israel.
The NYT: “Us seperating Jews into good and bad Jews and equating Jewishness with zionism certainly isn’t antisemitic, but a Jewish student calling out the systematic displacement, starving, bombing and medical neglect of two million people probably is!”
for a lot of transfems, the trick with skirts is at which height you wear them. They just don’t look very good on me when they sit on my hips, but they’re fine above my belly or at the height of my belly button. Where to put the waistline is a huge decision when you’re dressing femme and if you have an “apple” shape like me, wearing things that run low on the hips just doesn’t work well.
Ah look, the ultra divorcee who thought a car that can’t handle water is a sound mass market product thinks that a collectivist matriarchal society that communicates by interpretative dance and murders all dudes after they’ve served their reproductive purpose is somehow not woke.
Not everyone’s attracted to the same things, not everyone is primarily attracted to physical features, not everyone is even allosexual in the first place, please pull your head out of your ass and realize that not everybody see the world like an average cishet dude, you mansplaining dingus.
“Once Hamas is destroyed” honestly doesn’t leave much room even for that when this kind of ghoul usually sees all people in Gaza either as ethnically terrorist or as regrettable human shields that unfortunately can’t be saved because the destruction of the people with the islamist militant brainpans takes precedent over their survival.
Fairly sure that is the same person and that hexbear is getting mad at a bit again. At least that means that there were about a dozen chuds falling for it as well, or a couple thousand if some propaganda account accidentally put this on blast.
Wait, dbzer0 is supposed to be a leftist instance? Every time i see somebody from there comment on hexbear, it’s either transphobia, homophobia, or shit-tier geopolitics takes, i would’ve expected them to be hardcore centrist chauvinists, basically like the brain genius in OP’s post.
I’m sorry to react this way to a shitpost, but there’s a lot to unpack here and somebody needs to do it, so:
Actually that entire meme format is kinda harmful and feeds into transmed stereotypes about nonbinary identities as an inherently invalid intermediate coping step people go through and discard on their way to becoming “real” trans women. This shit also isn’t supported by evidence at all. I’ve recently looked at name change data from my country and by far the most common reason to change gender markers a second time is going from a binary M or F one to either “other” or “none”. Almost all the cases where people change their mind about this kind of stuff fall into that category. That mirrors my own transition as well: Originally i needed to process my gender as binary womanhood and needed to socially and physically transition to a point where i felt halfway comfortable in my own skin before i had the security to openly engage with more radical ideas about gender and define for myself what womanhood and femininity mean to me, and that the way i understand it, the way i can live it authentically, lies outside of restrictive binary boxes. But in a society as cissexist, transphobic and stuck in binary oversimplifications as ours, that was just too much to process for freshly cracked me. I just didn’t have the experience with living outside of gender norms and with how other people do gender to fully understand what i wanted for me. I needed to see all of that with my own eyes, settle in, and then move beyond the socially more accepted option of binary trans womanhood. I find that this holds true for a lot of other nonbinary trans people as well, but i know very few cases where the opposite holds true and people go from describing themselves as non binary to describing themselves as binary. It happens, sure, but it’s much rarer than the opposite development, and in our social climate, that shouldn’t surprise anybody.
So these memes completely reverse how such questioning processes typically play out. They make up a lie that nonbinary identities are easier to accept, a lie that hinges on another transmed concept: That validity is tied to passing, that trans people should strive for looks that allow others to correctly guess their pronouns and that therefore an androgynous early-transition stage is better described with they / them or they / she pronouns, when i reality pronoun choices need to be viewed completely seperate from how people present physically and pronouns shouldn’t be assumed based on looks.
So am i saying this is truscum shit? Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeell … yes, yes i am saying that. Sorry, no offense, but i have no other way to put it. These kinds of memes are really shit to nonbinary transfems, even those of us that use she / her pronouns like me, they feed into the insecurities of people that do not clearly pass as one binary gender, they are just all around harmful and prescriptive. I get that people are only joking, i do not think most posters who share these kinds of memes are truscums themselves, but the format relies on not questioning, but replicating transmedicalist and binary-reinforcing notions of gender, and i’m gonna call that out in all trans spaces i’m in.
Sounds like they will once more resort to accusing us of faking transness later this day, sooooo looking forward to having my gender called into question by debate perverts who think trans women in sports is “a complicated issue where we must find a bipartisan consensus”.
It took me a minute or two to figure out what was actually going on here because Zuckerschmuck is a not existing, but gramatically very regular and usual German composite word that means “sugar jewelry”.
