    they're about to snap. seriously, if you can stomach the transphobia in such spaces, it seems trivial by now to completely wreck terf communities with accusations of some key figures being secretly trans.

    I'm more and more convinced everyday that paranoia is the essential element of reactionary politics.

      Conservativism is heavily based on fear of an other. It's right there in the foundation of conservative and reactionary thought.

        I'm not sure it's fear of the other. I think it's more jealously of the other that they think has full enjoyment or hatred of the other that steals their enjoyment.

      Facism isn't a coherent political belief, but an emergent property of stimulant abuse.

        Can you expand on that? I don't think that one needs to abuse stimulants in order to become a fascist.

            Oh I see. Yeah, it's pretty funny that fascists idolize virility while their leaders were drugged out a lot of the time

      CW: misgendering

      TIM - trans-identified male, it's how TERFs refer to transwomen.

      Based off that you probably get what TIF stands for.

      TRA - trans rights activist, doesn't actually mean activists when TERFs use it, rather it's a gender neutral term to refer to transpeople.

    Just look at Putin. Putin is suspiciously short and strange-looking. Not enough to make any certain accusations of Putin being a <slur for trans people>, but in light of his sudden <slur> invasion, it makes sense; Putin is on a suicide mission because the testosterone injections and plastic surgeries aren't holding up anymore. See Putin's past images up until now.

    A 69 year old man is no longer as fit or muscular as he was in his younger years? Stop the presses, there's a conspiracy afoot!

    transphobes are the weirdest fucking thing. they basically believe all the wackiest nazi shit about jews except with trans people instead. somehow every noteworthy person in the world is trans and they're furthering their evil trans agenda at all times

    I don't understand how cementing Russia as the big bad in the west and crippling any transport capacity of Ukraine is meant to help the "trans agenda".

    • AcidSmiley [she/her]

      you see, this entire war that amounts to Russia and NATO each shooting themselves in the foot with inflation and military overextension is just a ruse to distract from the REAL threat to western civilization, which is me being allowed to pee in public.

      They started by basically saying "Ukraine is key for trans people", so if anything, they should be cheering Putin for destroying the country.

        Yeah, that is the most confusing bit. They start by saying that Russia is the main producer of estrogen supplements, and that they ship it through Ukraine. So by demolishing the capacity of Ukraine to transport it out and incurring a load of sanctions on Russia, Putin is somehow furthering the trans agenda?

        It would still not make any sense if the post said it was just a false flag to distract, but their preamble to justify it makes it even more nonsensical.

    Putin invades Ukraine out of nowhere

    I've seen both libs and chuds say this shit. Like take 5 minutes to learn about the events that led up to this invasion instead of assuming big bad crazy Putin just woke up one day and decided to invade. They literally have no idea why the war is happening and have just decided it's not worth looking into and must've just happened out of nowhere without any causes.

      How could that camel have collapsed under a single piece of straw when it had just been standing there for so long?!

      They literally have no idea why the war is happening and have just decided it’s not worth looking into

      Its not like we haven't had a media firehose of horseshit spewing across every screen in the country for the last six months. Libs aren't making any kind of conscious choice. They're simply eating from the same neoliberal slop bucket full that gave us the Steele Dossier and "COVID can't hurt us because we have such a great health care system!"

      Garbage in, garbage out. If you ask why Putin invaded, you'll get answers ranging from "He wanted to use Stalin's Big Spoon and steal all their grain" to "Russia is doing imperial expansionism, just like when they conquered Crimea and North Ossetia" because that's the history they find every time they turn on the TV.

      On the flip side, if you ask the conservatives what is going on, you get a bunch of shit about COVID bio-weapons labs in Ukraine, Sneaky China doing a fifth column to pit all the white people against each other, and Ukraine being an elaborate ploy to distract us all from Illegal Immigrants On Our Border. Again, not because no conservative has ever looked into anything, but because this is what conservative media trumpets to their listeners 24/7.
