Apart from the ableism, this is a massive reason why everyone should be against wage labor. If you need your labor measured to get resources, how is that not going to be skewed towards oppressors who pretend they live in a vacuum?

Biological essentialism does not help women, it just defines our oppression as inherent to us. No features of bodies are inherently a or inherently b, they are all, always, what the person who has them makes of them

The worst is when people think that you are fine with your meds and so think you don't need them anymore. Like no thanks, I can accept that I am not abled, why can you not?

⋅

We have queer writings from thousands of years ago. We have existed far longer than fascists, and will outlive their ideology too.

⋅

So many tools for accessibility and inclusion already exist. The fact that they are not used is an intentional attack against us. Don't let these people claim plausible deniability over it

the US is a white supremacist terrorist organization

Transmisogyny is one of those words incredibly prevalent inside the queer community that a lot of people outside of it might not have heard, so if you are new to it I recommend looking into it. It references the specific kind of misogyny transfeminine people face

It is nice to see peoples joy and love of life start appearing. I have seen little else make people as happy as being able to transition

I really wish people would stop asking people with neurotypical how to help us. It helps a lot when advice comes from someone who understands you (and wants you to live your best life instead of just not exist)

liberals love saying that they gave queer people marriage equality, but I still don't have it, and neither do most of the queer people I know

Diagnosis is one of the hierarchies over us. Our community doesn't need the permission of doctors to exist

One of the biggest reasons I advocate for polyamory as an anarchist is that it is one of the most effective ways I have found to build up mutual aid. This is because it is a way to build intimacy and trust between an entire group of people, something that is incredibly difficult in this society

This is how I feel whenever anyone talks about their highschool friend group

If your society pays wages it is just more capitalism. You can do better. (This includes the USSR)

I have updated the meme. Transition is possible, even if you can't go through the state. (Although sadly you can't share trans-masc stuff as publicly D: )

⋅

the oppression of women, and what we do to minimize it, is often framed as a privilege. Sex work is work.

⋅

honestly most humor I encounter is someone saying something bigoted and literally nothing else. I am convinced most of humor is just about like reaffirming your social commitment to whoever is in power in the space/providing an opportunity for people to do so

⋅

male and female are social categories, the gendering of the body, not an inherent fact, and we can just refuse to use them.

Anyone else not able to sit down and cook for very long? If I didn't have per-chopped stuff I don't think I would ever use vegetables lol

We have an enemy right in front of us, while the rich in their towers are harmful they aren't the ones holding the guns

This is something that needs to be repeated. The hatred of disabled people at the basis of so many ideologies cannot be allowed to go unnoticed and unsaid

⋅

charities are capital too. We do not save ourselves by throwing resources at capital, we save ourselves by giving them to the people who actually need it.

⋅

To some of you, your disagreement with centrists is political. To many others, it is life and death. Dead is dead, and at that point does it really matter if the other fascists are worse?

⋅

Writers have taught me a lot about privileged people. They often know about and understand the oppression they are doing in intricate detail, but often straight up don't connect it to our identity. They often say they are allies because they cannot internalize the people they are hurting are us

the only requirement to being a women is calling yourself one

something I needed to see today, yall dont need to justify being in pain. Anybody that tells you that you have to is just a bigot <3

Never forget to learn and remember fascist dog whistles, you can't protect yourself if you can't recognize threats

CW: discussion of sexual assault. This is part of what people mean when they say we live in a rape culture. It deeply impacts every discussion around women and our experiences.

Building and maintaining tools of the oppressors will not help the oppressed. This is something I have been seeing more and more people doing with ableism. Calling right wingers any variation of disabled as an insult just hurts the people around you.

you don't beat oppression by treating everyone like a privileged class

⋅

Yall read about that person who was sentenced to 30 years in prison in the US for transporting some zines in a car?

⋅ ⋅ #30

As I always say, a lot of oppression is finding some way to blame oppressed people for their experiences regardless of what they do. This is why a framework of just treating oppressors as uneducated, and oppression as one-off insults or individual gatekeeping is so harmful.

Abled people have special rules they apply to disabled people that they don't apply to themselves

⋅

It is important to remember that trauma is complicated, and there are different responses to it. I have seen people get attacked for not reacting enough to something going bad. You can't tell what someone is feeling just by looking at them

⋅

The secret to beating fascism is to make sure everyone has access to what they need by default. If you have no idea what they are up to, neither do the police.

For people sensitive to texture and taste, just eating fruit is never that easy. This is one reason why attacking things for being highly processed is ableist. Some people need those things.

Either your main goal in a space is educating bigots, or making a space safe for their victims. My hope is to create a space that's safe

⋅

the bear is an example of pointing out systematic oppression. An interaction with a bear is relatively self-contained, oppression from men is constantly reinforced by men. The bear doesn't go into our spaces to tell us we deserved it.

⋅

Pro tip: you don't know what genitals a person has just because they say they are trans.

⋅

Do not worry yall, this is a strictly anti-labor-voucher space. If you see anyone advocating for restricting access to resources based on labor, please report them uwu

Just consume less is the ideology of privileged bigots. If your goal isn't to understand why people must consume that way, and providing a real alternative, your ideology is just to be as liberal as possible and hope that works

You are not an anarchist if you believe in prisons. Being put in a prison for not thinking right is as dystopian as it gets, yet so many people accept it without question because they hate us more than they care about anything.

⋅

Propaganda works yall, it leads to distributed resistance. Don't stop talking about fascism, don't stop making sure everyone knows whats going on

Asking people for help is a huge amount of work, and often a huge amount of risk. People often leave when you ask for help with too many things, and you often don't know where the limit is, so asking for help can be counter-productive.

⋅

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Capitalists want to trick you into pushing yourself to the limit, but do not let them.

⋅

Remember yall, conservatives rarely say their beliefs to outsiders. They say whatever convinces liberals to let them do more oppression, and so what they say is more accurately what liberals believe but can't say. You will never win by appealing to them. There is no good optics

Every aspect of incel ideology and imagery is based on misogyny. There is no kernel of truth within it. We should not be tying looks and preferences to abilities, beliefs or actions, at all. Anyone who posts shit like that is simply not a leftist, let alone an anarchist

For almost all of you, hormones will have a much larger impact than you expect. We have almost no research on the topic, and so can't prove many potential impacts, but they are there with or without the highly rigorous scientific proof we are denied.

It is essential to remember that it is not oppressed people causing your problems

Diagnosis is defined around how abled people experience us, and how they experience us often depends on our identities, and is often an external thing we are punished for. This means diagnosis incorporates other systems of oppression within it.

⋅

Most leftist ideologies are just about letting workers get what they produce. They are not about or for us.

⋅

This is a lot of the reason why so many people are fighting against children getting access to hormones. Right wingers realize any normalization or social force putting the consent of the child as more important than their abuser will make it harder to abuse them

⋅

I was so happy with the reaction to NFTs, and then absolutely nobody applied that logic outside of them. It seemed like most of it was another example of liberals applying any argument available to hate on things they already disliked, instead of people actually believing something

People want to see the things you make. They might not be the best in the world, but what good is a fancy yummy cake after I've already eaten it? And why would I want that over your cake that might have my favorite combination of flavors?
