Can we maybe not with the Gail Dines shit?

Because she is scum, a swerf, terf, general embodiment of excrement, and peddler of bourgeois bullshit wrapped in radical terminology.

Also Radscum who are like “YOU HATE WOMEN CAUSE YOU HATE ME” or like “YOU NEED TO SUPPORT OTHER WOMEN (EVEN THO I DON’T)” are shit.

Cause like I don’t think of you as women so much as the literal embodiment of internalized misogyny.

So if your question of why so many young women are turning to radical feminism wasn’t just hypothetical: mainstream feminism let us down. It’s so watered down that when I discovered radical feminism I felt like I’d woken up. You can’t criticize anything in mainstream feminism because choice is sacrosanct and analyzing things deeper is seen as an affront, at least for a lot of people. Radical feminism has a lot of problems, but at least I feel like it’s actually meaningful.

You can be radical and a feminist without being a transmisogynistic swerf. Respecting sex workers isn’t about ~*~*~*~*~*~Choice~*~*~*~*~*~ any more than respecting waitstaff is about choice, it’s about the fact that our work is real actual work, like any other work, our problems are labor problems and the failure to acknowledge that is really fucking not radical. You wanna be a Marxist feminist? Well then failing to analyze and acknowledge our labor as the same as other labor means you’re REALLY BAD AT MARXIST-FEMINISM.

Also the studies claiming that porn makes men violent and misogynistic A: have shit methodology and B: Prove that violent misogynistic imagery (not inherent or unique to porn) encourages men who are already violently misogynistic are encouraged by it… but they’re encouraged by a spring breeze, because they live in a culture steeped in misogyny.

What we call radical feminism is just aggressive defense of the status quo, oppressing trans people and sex workers is not radical and never will be.

Like we need to be able to discuss shit but “radical” (I put it in quotes because whorephobic transphobic misogyny is never radical) feminism is the opposite of helpful.

Things people keep incorrectly insisting I am:

A Stalinist

A Mercantilist

A Monarchist

Straight

A variety of genders that I am not

Andrea Dworkin

Directly in opposition to all goals of feminism because of how I fuck

Prettier without makeup

Sexually interested in them

Radscum suck patriarchy’s dick

And no that’s not a threat of violence, that’s a description of what you are already doing. You are literally, by doing what you’re doing licking the patriarchy’s balls and whispering that it’s always right and about how much you love it.

That is you.

Also how come “radical” feminists don’t talk about class? Like…???

Also when they accuse me of being a liberal feminist I’m like “Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, my relationship with liberalism is like… yeaaaah, no, I mean like I think that enlightenment ideals have some merit but they’re kind of not enough and don’t really address the problems caused by economic inequalities and systemic oppression, also like uh, I feel like you guys are the liberal feminists for failing to acknowledge intersectionality so…”
