These threads always boil down to men shaming women and girls for getting "fat." So there's always an argument between men spouting oversimplified bad advice, vs. women. It's not about health. Fatphobia is a tool of sexism.

@Ikler32 @Ancommiey Intersex people exist. Also called DSD, the numbers can be googled. DSD's don't exist because of politics. If you're going to say bimodal sex distribution requires binary gender, you're claiming you have the only true culture and we all have to comply, which is colonialism/fash.

@asleepv_v @JackHancock1983 @LauraPowellEsq AIDS killed many bi men my age and it's insulting that you want to erase their memory.

@mariahmac12 @IsTrumpCareDead @mattbc But it's just the kind of attitude that medical people use when they blame and shame sick people limited by the symptoms of our illness. If willpower fixed everything I would never need a doctor again. But in the real world it doesn't.

@bloodtypeblue1 @MorgothArc @BuckAngel While weโ€™re at it, what about autistics? Iโ€™m autistic. It doesnโ€™t make autistic AFABs legally incompetent persons who canโ€™t be allowed to make their own medical and gender decisions. This manages to be ableist, transphobic and misogynistic all at once! A trifecta of fascism.

@K8T1144 @PoesMyaa @RescueCatLady @LasciviousFox @somethingamyss @MorgothArc @cecinestpaspipe @tikaokao29 @DollyPunished @GcRacism YOU, if youโ€™re not completely lying about who you are, should know that over 1/5 of AMAB children and well over 1/4 of AFAB children are subjected to CSA, often violently and at all ages. That means every group of people you meet in public has one or more survivors.

@Econpolicy @ponygirl923 And only because the fetus might be an able bodied male. So since the mother is not, she's disposable. I really don't think Christofascists acknowledge women are human.

@Faiththecat @windupgemma You're including the Philly Pride flag like the racist you are. British GC seem to have a really bad reaction to the Philly Pride flag.

@Ikler32 @Ancommiey You haven't corrected me about science. What's your claim, other than your attempt to derive binarist gender from an outdated view of sex?

@CaryLoughman @gulityparty @BernieSanders This tells me the demand to be excessively nice to the customers is not for the customers. Itโ€™s for pandering to the egos of bosses and old male customers with limited ideas about women should act in service jobs.

@yearningjon @notcorry Terfs are concerned about the fertility of white trans people they see as young women. Itโ€™s the same forced fertility/forced childbearing that we see from other fascists. They see becoming a trans man as an unacceptable rejection of pregnancy. Same reason for opposing abortion.

This thread really clarified for me why authoritarian fundamentalists have attached so hard to the abortion issue.

19. But again, if it weren't abortion, it would be something else. You're dealing with projection, fetishes, in short, defense mechanisms.

I have had a parallel experience with a different cult. The persona has a life of its own. Iโ€™m still unearthing myself in my later years. Thank you for this tweet.

As cult members, a lot of us had to suppress our authentic self in order to survive. You end up in this dissociative state where youโ€™re two selves. Your authentic self and the self that is created in the image of the cult. #ExMuslimAwarenessMonth

@Lerienperce We had our workplace shut down from violent threats, but your minimizing means we're standing right in front of you and you don't even know. You think you're cool but everyone in the room isn't telling you everything.
