@wigglytuffitout In some ways it is mirroring it and yet in others it's like, for some people, they actually don't have a choice to use a car.

There's like a mix of being on either the privileged side of the spectrum or the non-privileged side all using the same public transport system and as someone who outright is too terrified of getting a driver's licence because I'm too autistic to trust myself driving a car, I see that some of the silicon valley "solutions" to public transport are basically gentrifying a system that's supposed to be MORE, not LESS accessible to disabled people

Baby Yoda theory: Yoda actually ages backwards, as evidenced by his immature behaviour stealing Luke's food and going through his belongings in Empire Strikes Back

A bunch of white dudes moved to Mexico, then got pissed when Mexico's laws changed forbidding them from owning slaves, so, rather than moving back from whence they came, they stole a good chunk of Mexico and later decided to join the US, where they'd later get pissed about the US doing the same thing.

Turns out the nuclear family in combo with the patriarchy makes for a shitty family dynamic.

what if we tell the techno-rationalists that internationalist proletarian revolution is the Singularity and the dictatorship of the proletariat is Roko's Basilisk

why the fuck do basic jobs force you to take hours of personality tests like you're some kind of case and like they can't trust me. half the time the questions are so ridiculous

Hey sock companies:

Listen up, you fuckers. Stop making the tops of your products narrow at the top. That's not how human bodies are designed you weirdos. You have legs. Figure it out.

3) even beyond the not-yet-TERFy radical-feminist origins of these politics, TERFs have an ongoing, successful campaign of infiltration into lesbian and queer spaces. I'm genuinely scarred by this as it occurred on Tumblr. those TERFs who are holding down the idea that lesbian sexuality is morally pure still inherit the general crypto-Catholic, heterosexually-sourced, conservative revulsion of sexual and gender-variance, particularly in its transmisogyny- and [F-slur] stigma-constrained forms, or the whole population of sex workers.

lots of online queer folks have fairly TERF-adjacent worldviews. there's no getting around this. it's worth noting, too, that TERF politics are standard-issue bigotry filtered through feminist language, and it takes active work to detect bigotry that doesn't affect you; the fact that feminist-101 concepts are weaponized against gay men by gay and trans people for whom [F-slur] stigma is not a personal experience is unsurprising.
