      who is downvoting eating ass?

      being anti-ass eating is reactionary.

      The only people that seem to be mad are the ones making a big deal about flair and than telling people to eat their ass.

            Can you not see that continually incorrectly using deer pronouns is continuing the "struggle session"?

              You're actively pushing people away from this site. People who are your allies.

              Do with that information what you will.

                  I'm not sure that taking an active glee at the prospect of pushing people away from leftism is the best approach, maybe.

                      If you read "leftism" as "all of leftism" then you have bigger problems than a dropdown menu on a shitposting site.

            That use of pronouns literally makes no sense. It's the equivalent of saying "Her, eat my ass". I hope this was helpful advice, because you were obviously confused. Unless, you were trying to make fun of deer pronouns, but that obviously isn't the case, because that would be transphobic...

                If by "are we still doing this struggle session?" you mean "Is Papanurgel still purposefully antagonizing trans people?" then the answer is yes.

                The whole thing is made more ridiculous because @flirty_fawn is a gender abolitionist, and doesn't even think gendered pronouns make any sense. Tbh, I do find it funny that y'all are so accepting of "she" and "her", as if those actually mean something, but "doe" is cRaZy. It's a pretty conservative and close-minded viewpoint.

                              Boxing out the vast majority of people because you demand adherence to radical social values isn't going to lead to a coalition that can stop rising fascism.

                                          I'm not being transphobic. I reject biological essentialism and I've been standing up for trans people irl for over a decade now. I'm saying that demanding adherence to a strict set of social rules as a gatekeep to the left is stupid and counterproductive.

                                              This bullshit right here is why the western left will always be a fringe group of lifestylists that affect zero material change. You want to paint me as a fucking transphobe because I don't think gender dysphoria is the same thing as wanting to be called a deer. Like I can't even imagine how few migrant workers or people in the hood you would allow into your movement. But that doesn't really matter if its about you and not the people right?

                                                or perhaps, you'd find their struggles inconvenient and attack them for holding you to the solidarity you pretend to.

At least most of the folks I know would probably put it a little less politely.

                                                  But sure, try to act like that's a racist thing to say. I guess the countless people I've been friends, coworkers and coconspirators with were just setting me up to get wokescolded years later.

                              Stupidpol are fucking idiots and anti-marxist. They don't believe in the concept of white privilege or even imperialism really. They're literally just workerist idealists that want to pick and choose things they like for their ideology. Most of them aren't even revolutionary, they think socialism is when Bernie Sanders is president.

                                  No, they don't. The only thing stupidpol is right about is the western left's obsession with the self rather than the proletariat writ large.

                                  And how is it ironic to bring up white privilege? Like what does that have to do with anything?

                                      Well now that I can see that you can bend over backwards, why not see if you can keep it going and end upright.

          Fuck you. This is such an absolutely ridiculous thing to say. You're seriously comparing people who want to be called deer to the descendants of chattle slaves that are routinely summarily executed in the streets?

          And so it's not the same fucking thing because I'm not saying they have to leave or even that they can't ask to be called deer. I'm saying that making it a gatekeep that everyone has to put their fucking pronouns on their account, even when many say they're uncomfortable with it, and demanding that everyone conform to your social values in order to be a part of the struggle is counterproductive wrecker shit. This is 100% wrecker shit, it's done nothing but wreck.

              Idk why you keep saying that I want you out of the movement, but I want to know do you want to box out colonized people that are devout Muslims or Catholics that might be turned off by the demand that they adhere to your social values? How about people like those that said they struggle with issues of gender and don't want to be forced to choose pronouns or none/any? You're making everything about you. I'm explicitly not talking about what I feel. Because I understand that it isn't about me, and even if I felt uncomfy or targeted for something I can't control I'd still fight for liberation.

              And I'm glad you were enriched on your white savior trip. I'm sure the local peruvian laborers were glad you were there to work for free instead of them having to work for pay. They were probably bigots anyway

          Comparing an online pissing match about profile settings to the legacy of chattel slavery and Jim Crow is an extremely uncool, EXTREMELY white lib thing to do.
