a common understanding of radical by self described radicals is “targeting the root of an issue” or the “wanting large systemic changes” that follows from that.

for radical feminists this means recognizing patriarchal power structures as the root of most gender related opressions and wishing to overcome them. while we can critique their exact analysis, i think the idea that many opressive acts are symptoms of deeper systemic opressions maked a lot of sense.

please don’t let opressors convince you that liberation in itself goes too far. a better world is possible and the struggle for it is righteous.

i think in this sense memes like this might even be detrimental, because they set the bar so high, barely anyone will take a shot.

you dont need to kill police or politicians, probably throwing your life away, to make a difference. just find whatever horizontal organisations are providing for needs and building dual power in your area and join them.

very true altho that’s not seizing but defending

love all my creatures and beings out there <3

we dont need tanks for that, just an underground network of lovely people, trained to turn hormone powder into meds for consumption, as well as a mutual aide network to finance the tools, powder, and production, and to distribute the product.

if you wait for a violent insurrection to get what you need, you will wait longer than you can and once it happens you will just fall into the next authoritarian system because no libertarian system was prefigured.

the meme looks lovely tho, politics aside :3

mm maybe a content warning would have been good and appropriate? pls

cute cobols :3

what do you base any of these accusations on?

update:
i went through mysticmushroom’s profile an there is nothing there that would support the accusations. i honestly find it disgusting to just make such accusations without proof, especially when aimed towards a trans person

this is the first time i hear about that “trans people are for pam people” thing.

i know some ppl consider nombinary ppl to excluded from bi, but thats just ignorance or exclusionary bs, that is not even in line with the ethemology of the word.

i personally simply vibe most with the pan label, because it is kinda seperate from gender, which fits my fuck gender mindest.

ofc its not a phobia to have preferences. my critique is towards excluding people from certain labels of gender based attraction, for things other than their gender. especially if those people are systemically opressed for their gender.

crazy example now, but sometimes that helps seeing things in a new light:

if i say that im not into old people because i am a lesbian, then thats kinda messed up, because it implies that old women are not women.

does that help?

and ofc, because we live in a cis-normative society, many people dont often think about how women can also have dicks. forgetting about that isnt necessairily transphobic but might also just be a cis-normative oopsy.

you are right, i shouldnt assume this meme has malicious intent. tbf i dont think i did assume that? but it probably came across that way… i should communicate better

thats not what i meant. the message was supposed to be “dont equate being a lesbian with disliking dick”. i apologise if i failed at bringing that across. maybe next time i should be more blunt from the start

oki, i just wrote a response but then realised i misunderstood you. sorry about that

you are right, that also works

my intention was to direct attention to how the image implies cis-normativity/transphobia. altho i do see how the image did that by simplifying reality for comical effect and while i dont think i played into similarly opressive structures, i did simply reality myself in my comment.

id say its disrespectful to pretend lesbian, the label that commonly means woman/non-man lovin women/non-men to mean not being into dicks.

if you are not into dicks, then just say that, instead of pretending lesbianism excludes people with dicks.

oki, i just wrote a response but then realised i misunderstood you. sorry about that

you are right for the situation i described in my comment. you can combine being a lesbian with a lot of other things, to make it a viable contraception.

i would argue tho, that not liking dick is the entire reason one wouldnt get pregnant in your situation. the lesbian part doesnt matter. meanwhile both a transphobe and a lesbian can get pregnant on their own but a transphobic lesbian can not.
