    it often is, but also gotta be carefull to not be reductionist about it. don’t wanna end up with the analysis of “the liberation of x marginalized group has to wait until after capitalism is overthrown and then people somehow suddenly won’t be bigoted anymore”

    intersectional feminist analysis sees a cyriarchy of opressive systems, interlinked and upholding each others. they all need to be fought to bring liberation

    i think this culture has ethics and morals. they are

    1. might makes right (if you are rich and priviledged you can do whatever you wish. if you are poor and marginalized you face scrutiny and opression at every turn)

    2. maximize profits/power over others

    hear me out hear me out

    trunk of holding

    i don’t need a car for getting around, but free, unlimited storage space that i could park lets say a few meters away from my door? that sounds reallyyy usefull! could maybe even put in a ladder and furniture and hang out in it, depending on how the rules work…












  • i was raised to be a man. that was not my fault. this was done to me by this fucked up patriarchal system, and turns out i neither want to be a man nor am i a man now.

    but being trans did not make me immune to the harmful behaviours and ideas that are taught to those children perceived as boys. i internalized many patriarchal ideas, and while realizing that i am trans at the age of 20 helped me unlearn some of that shit, i am still not free of it and am still unlearning.

    not everyone goes through the same and not everyon processes it the same, so i don’t doubt that other people who were raised to be men (both cis men and trans people) made different experiences, but it is certainly true for me.

    i don’t know if “male socialisation” is the best word for it, but i think it makes sense to have a word to describe what i and many others went through

    it definitely should not define us. everyone can and should unlearn the patriarchal ideas and behaviours they internalized. overcome and reject their socialization.

    it is cruel and pointless to hate people for what was done to them; for a past they left behind.

    well my assumption is that the dev is a man, and now hiring themselves for the job, instead of a woman :3

    my joke was intended as a lighthearted joke, not a serious criticism
