Anarchist -- transfeminist -- they/he gender traitor -- waging war against Plato
- Reposted by Vivianmy favorite part about staying up late is watching my UK mutuals wake up and start posting and showing me the little ways how we aren’t too different after all. their country is as spiritually fucked in ways i as an american recognize without much effort
- :(
- Transness is an inherently spiritual endeavor
- Reposted by VivianIt’s funny how the so called male loneliness epidemic has somehow become something women are expected to fix, when a lot of men aren’t even capable of seeing each other as fully rounded human beings, let alone seeing women as people.

- Reposted by VivianI swear people don't support non binary genders they support a third gender called non binary that is kinda like a girl but with adhd
- Reposted by VivianReminder that "gosh, I wish I was a lesbian" is not a thing that cisgender men think.
- Last 3 days in this shitty apartment and a pipe in the ceiling is leaking something fierce, I can't wait to be tf outta here
- Reposted by Vivianthe point of Andor isn't "only anarchists are right" or "only terrorism works" or "only liberals defeat fascism" it's that birthing a movement that can destroy an imperial regime requires a diversity of tactics and people all willing to throw their lives away for the cause

- Reposted by VivianI agree, Vaush is a misogynist.
- Good morning from the bad-dream-haver
- Reposted by Vivianit's always "kids these dayzzzz" and never "how'd swathes of young people get left behind for generations and what are we missing out on by not cultivating communal support"
- Loving The Pitt, at least E1 Stressful, critical, high tempo, characters are interesting
- You know we'd solve the "male loneliness epidemic" ending the idea that men are owed sex, right? And indulging that misogynistic drive for sex at any cost wouldn't solved by feeding a sex worker to them?
- Yo, men aren't owed shit. If you wanna have sex with someone, maybe try to have them desire you in kind, and that's not going to happen if you're an insufferable, misogynistic dickhead.
- Reposted by VivianI feel like not enough cis people know that gender clinics are largely staffed by power-tripping regressive lunatics whom it would not be unethical to regularly beat with lead pipes.
- Reposted by VivianUltimately, the Gendered process under patriarchy is simply abusing and indoctrinating children until they are ready to repeat the process unto their own children. Any deviation from this is punished.
- Pretty sure that @riotlinguist.bsky.social is correct in asserting that the core anxiety of a patriarchal society "in crisis" is the unacknowledged yet implicitly understood truth: boys are Not Men, and Manhood is not anatomical destiny, but something to impose, mold ... groom boys into.
- This has to be downstream of the Western obsession with Reason. The easiest common ground to find with other people is in the emotions we all have, but Reasonable people think emotions are stinky and cloud "higher judgement", how could we possibly find commonality with the unenlightened?
- Reposted by VivianI see this also in the tendency among many people to “take credit” for all sorts of liberatory worldviews and while there’s a lot of erasure going on, ultimately, the desire to be free of oppression has no trademark attached.
- Reposted by VivianHonestly “Marxist Leninist” broadly translates to “I have heard of imperialism and capitalism and think they’re bad: the ideology” among most of the people who adopt the label, and they wouldn’t even know why it would give someone like me hives lmao
- I get that most people aren't into radical politics and just want to keep their head down, and I can respect that, fine. The only thing you need to do, is never talk to the cops. That's it. If that's all you do, that's helpful.
- Reposted by VivianIt isn't pragmatic to do this. It isn't realistic. The most immediately material goal of feminism - ending rape - is impossible without ending gender as a hierarchy. Which means that "manhood", "womanhood", "cisness" and "transness" all become either dead or completely transformed concepts.
- Reposted by Vivianthere also may be more pain to come in the future, but that pain is not certain. alongside that pain i believe that we can, and will, also find moments of joy. i may not know the person reading this, but i do know that there are people in your life who feel fortunate to have you in theirs
- Patriarchy is a dying system, and I fear the rage that'll inspire in patriarchally aligned men. I think that's what we're witnessing, this final, violent attempt to stay alive. But it is dying.
- Reposted by VivianThis tension is palpable but tolerated for as long as enough boys turn out to be men, for as long as the "failure rate" remains low enough, for as long as everyone keeps playing their roles and upholding their ends of natalist, patriarchal bargains enough, keeping the cogs greased.
- Reposted by VivianThe existence of gendered possibilities beyond Manhood are stamped out, yet boys exist as vulnerable, precarious, liable to be feminized and exploited in much the same way as every not-Man is under patriarchy, for everything not-Man is at risk of being claimed and 'used' by a Man.

- I think of the transwomen of decades past that didn't realize it was an option. Hell, even today. There was an egg I was in trade school with that said all sorts of clock-y things, but was desperate to prove their manhood, desperate to make dad love them. I think of them all the time.
- I feel the need to clarify my position from the last few days, I'm asking everyone to extend *children* more empathy and understanding than we typically do, *men* need to get the fuck over themselves.
- Reposted by VivianThis one is actually an existential challenge for them, because what they mean by "being boys" is narcissism.and sadism. Cruelty and supremacy is how they define manhood and they desperately want to shut up any threat to that definition.
