the point of not dehumanising the racists, bigots and fascists is not to excuse their character or action.the point of not dehumanising the racists, bigots and fascists is not to excuse their character or action. It’s not to hold sympathy for them: It’s to remind us that they could be any of us. We aren’t a different species. Anyone could be a monster and think of themselves as a good decent person.
anyone could be a predator and also the very good guy who rakes the neighbor’s lawn, works as a nurse, looks after the kids

Regular Reminder;There Is No Such Thing As “Just A Joke”.Regular Reminder;
There Is No Such Thing As “Just A Joke”.Jokes serve a very serious social function, and are an important aspect of online radicalisation.
Those of you who know my history by now may not be surprised to learn that I have spent a lot of time trying to understand how cult psychology works, how abuse works, and how bullying works, not because I think this stuff is interesting but because it’s been essential to my survival.
So believe me when I say this screenshot is not “just a joke”. It’s a manipulation technique we call The Whopper.
The opening part about misogynist commenters is just to get your head nodding like, hey, yeah! fuck those chuds!
the poison pill is the non sequitor at tbe end about anti-bullying campaigns.
The entire construction is a set up to put the idea in the reader’s head that these two topics have something to do with each other- maybe anti-bullying campaigns train people to leave misogynistic comments on the internet?
So when i pointed out that anti-bullying campaigns are there to protect girls, disabled kids, and queer kids FROM misogynists and bigots,
at first i thought that maybe he didn’t know what he was doing.
but the followup told me that i was on the right track

regular reminder of things trans babies may not know:regular reminder of things trans babies may not know:
step 0 of makeup is good skin, which you get with drinking enough water and a skin care routine. makeup doesn’t stick to shitty dry skin.
your waist is just below your belly button. not just above your pubic area
if you bundle up the stockings you can pull them onto your legs while unrolling them, you get a snugger more controlled fit than trying to pull them on like pants- put the toe into the toe, not into the waist

and for whatever reason the person will just forever be triggered by the thought of trans women and the fear of being hurt by them.
and it’s hard not to feel a measure of compassion for such people
but it’s still fucking bullshit to think of us as all part of the same hive mind conspiracy against you specifically;
we are all actually *different* people from each other.
you can name the specific person who hurt you.
please leave the rest of us the fuck out of your public therapy session

"It's easy to tell who the fake trans people are — it just takes a single glance —, which is why it's important for gender therapists to spend a long time, at least a year, better two, on telling who the fake trans people are."@riley a very prolongued single glance
really more of an endurance based staring contest really -
Tired of highly visible transfemmes entering into some sort of weird midlife crisis and becoming transmedicalists or enbyphobics etc.@hrefna they’re moving in social circles that require doing this as some kind of acceptability performance. it’s classic textbook “one of the good ones” or “pick me” behavior
