super disturbing when you try to discuss fatphobia, diet culture, and food morality w some leftists, you really see the inner reactionary come out, super disturbing
@AnneNotation
she was odd about fanfic but i will say that i love, love this and honestly more writers should be like this, especially w how everything is in fandom rn…sigh

@FunFactsLulu
oof…thanks for telling me the thing about new zealand…i am thinking of moving there w my boyfriend some day and thought about getting an autism diagnosis but now idk…
capitalism has planted a poisonous seed in all of us that has grown into a disgusting plant and we much all take it from the root and pull it out of ourselves but first we must identify *what* the plant is and what it looks like
@perisceris
it’s why the calls for strikes always make me roll my eyes…i really really just want people to *properly* organize and i never see it and it’s just heartbreaking to me…
@peculiaritea
also hate that half of barnes and nobles is YA books bc it’s so profitable, they push it so hard in there and it’s just like no thanks i want books for adults cus i am an adult lol. like you said, it’s ok to read YA but like it for it is! aaaaa
as a fat femme i wish society didn’t desexualize and degender me…especially bc i want to be looked at as dainty and cute and girly and waifish but i’ll never ever be seen that way (cont)
@FioraAeterna
i honestly probably have a trauma response to math now bc of this place. i have a looooot of trauma associated w kumon loool and i had to go to it for years bc my abusive mother who slapped me in the face of a parking lot of one of these was convinced it was working
@jimsrippedshirt
critical has also already made a video where he mentions inside baseball stuff as a long time youtuber himself and he basically said they’re just being greedy lol like multiple peers of theirs have made videos like please lol
@neilhimself
reading v for vendetta over and over and over again in high school made me the radical i am today ❤️ i hope these students and teacher are ok! 100% not ok what’s happening to them. alan moore would be proud of these students and teacher ❤️
@freetofic
@CaseyExplosion
tbh, i’ve seen this sentiment *a looot* from people in leftist/progressive spaces tho and it’s always disturbed me and has gone largely unchecked
i would like *for once* to be able to post a selfie or even for a fat cis or trans woman to post a nude or selfie without being called zoidberg or a creature of some sort. i want to live in *that* fucking world
we do not live in socialism; if people making content make money that is perfectly fine - in fact, we should; none of us retain the full value of our work. that's the point. read Marx.
@alexisthenedd
honestly, the dark tower would fit pretty well into this lol it’s why i hope amazon makes a whole ass tv show of it and now just book four
performative activitism is a very liberally ideological thing so i roll my eyes when people go around critiquing it’s without talking about that. we were all born and raised in neoliberalism, ofc that’s what we’re gonna do and the only way we’re gonna learn how to do activism
@tropotropotropo
this is like the wuthering heights discourse that’s very similar…i am so sick of it jfc…let people enjoy gothic romance the way they want to 🙄
@asexualthot24
not to mention some women are…just…like…that? like, women like that exist in the world lol does that make their existence not feminist??? lol if that’s their *only* characteristic i get but implying that it’s somehow “wrong” for women to be that way is 🤢
@CATT6N
his songs remind me a lot of leonard cohen…lool which a lot of women largely had the same reaction to but he was indeed a giant red flag and couldn’t keep a relationship as well lol. anyway, i highly rec leonard cohen to hozier fans 🥴
(tw: ed) and i can’t be smaller or change my body, i’ve already tried doing that for years bc i’ve had eating disorder difficulties for years and it’s massively screwed up my digestive system and i am just fucking sick to death of fatphobia
@doctorbaixue
ugh reminds me of men who think women shouldn’t like “the bad boy” in fiction which is how we didn’t get zutara! like, men do this kind of paternalism!
A top federal health official is issuing a dire warning: Follow recommended coronavirus measures or risk having the worst fall in US public health history.
i am so fucking sick of liberals wanting a female president just to want a female president, like sometimes i hate liberal with such a burning passion...like i know, i know we're supposed to court them but jfc i want and *need* health care and ya'll are over here killing me
@freetofic
yeah, lots of leftists and lgbtqia+ people around me claiming that anime drawings are the equivalent to csem and it’s very odd...and no one informing them why thats wrong to say and why it isn’t etc
@binraccooon
@birth_marxist
i knew this was gonna happen tbh, they have the best doctors in the whole world, not a surprise and am very grateful to them as i am so anxious about this thing
@sherlwatson
pretty sure he’s a right libertarian and i have talked about it before online but no one listened loool he’s got hooorrrible political views now
@broadwaybabyto
lol i honestly feel like my mother feels this way when i have to spend like…so much money on my medications that i can’t get for free and i can’t work just…ugh…
@petercoffin
peter: makes a post talking about structural analysis
people: ohhh so your saying that its ok that they're like that and you're making excuses for them iiii seee
every. single. time.
@perisceris
omfg seriously?! that is so fucking ridiculous!! like, how about *organize*?!?! instead of trying to put the onus on the working class!! uuggghhh
@reylochriso
@ClarissaDeLune
honestly relatable and this is me lol. i can’t really read straight romance unless it’s other things in it either and it’s super hard for me to find romance that i really connect w 💔
its just so sad that we're pushed by capitalist patriarchal white supremacist society to abandon our friends for a fucking spouse and we were socialized to think its "weird" or whatever to want to live w *just friends* until we die or even our friends *and our* spouse +
One day, you too will reach the age when all the most controversial songs of your youth will be used to sell you chicken burrito bowls and midsized sedans.
@_ivyodessa_
some of us are bisexual and prefer stories w women in them as the love interest which include het relationships, like why do you care so much????
@xoxogossipgita
@LouisPeitzman
looool i’ve honestly seen people argue stuff that sounds like this is what they’re arguing for i am like than that’s not the vampire chronicles??? that’s some other thing entirely
@ashesforfoxes
@writelbrbrokeme
@enfysblessed
*a loooot* of it was tumblr tbh. they proliferated *everything and everyone* on there bc there were feminists and they didn’t get their dog whistles and people essentialized men *bad* on there so it just went massively unchecked there and then it came here
@theuncannyallie
not to mention fanpol is also pro censorship and that’s scary af followed to its conclusion but we’re both as awful as each other lol k
@renegadecut
@BensBoredAtWork
does anyone else find it super fucking weird how reactionary the entire cast of monty python is? am i the only one really blind sided by it? is it just bc they got rich??
