        This is just so similar to the strange culty things I was seeing in 2011 on spaces like /pol/ and 8chan. Rabid, violent philosophies being developed in discords. You have teenagers and adults - some of whom are probably adult men intentionally trying to create this kind of death cult.

        The “billions must be saved” is just setting off so many alarm bells in my head.

      Serious. I follow several of these little groups. Discord server seems fairly active, in the dozens.

      Eventually, tumblr is going to get a teenage girl to shoot somewhere up.

          I think there is something sinister going on.

          Something else I am seeing, a group aligned with the transphobia crowd, is an anti-adoption movement. It’s really complicated and subtle, but I think there’s anti-abortion and pro-trad marriage types sneaking into spaces labeled “feminist.” Tumblr has a lot of teenagers on it, including very young ones, who are getting suckered into some dangerous ideologies.

              It’s interesting to me that they infiltrated what’s essentially been kind of a bastion of rabid pro LGBTQ+ rights media. There’s a lot of pro-trans users on Tumblr. It’d be like going to xitter and trying to infiltrate and spread pro-liberal information. The main user base doesn’t really align with that.

            La Leche is a group which in some areas is great at helping mothers who want to breastfeed, but have medical/societal barriers. In other areas, it seems to exist to shame adoptive mothers and those who don’t want to breastfeed. If I wanted to find terfs in my area, that’s where I’d look.

              Yeah - La Leche pamphlets have always seemed a little… off…

              The TERFs get extremely upset at trans women breastfeeding. It’s one of the things a trans woman can do that puts them in the “worthy of death” category.

              Several TERFs have made extremely violent posts. Tumblr won’t take down the posts or ban the people, but it will not let me call them out on their violence. My screenshots get taken down for “violating community guidelines” but the actual “i want trans people dead” things stay.

    I thought, for a moment, they were following the scRum manifesto, which would’ve been a very different thing

    I’m using the holy book of Gynara in my next Kult campaign.

      It is extremely common in tumblr TERF spaces to refer to each other as “gyns,” if that helps for further inspiration.
