    The Republican War on Transgender People, Drag Queens, and Queerness in General

    On the very short list of worst regular posters in the 15 years I've been here The real irony is that showing up in a space that's not yours and making it all about you is textbook toxic masculinity But yeah, I'm done with this clown. I'd encourage the rest of yall to just stop engaging with...

    The Republican War on Transgender People, Drag Queens, and Queerness in General

    Not gonna address any of this again after this last time You posted - no surprise - a Judith Butler video that has vastly more to do w/yr own views than thread topic, then made it about yourself and your quixotic theory, as always. You contribute nothing of value to actual topic. @jenks + I...

    The Republican War on Transgender People, Drag Queens, and Queerness in General

    In some quick relevant news A ton of anti-trans or drag laws have been blocked. Turns out it's hard (or, continues to be, this isn't a new thing) to make Twitter/soundbite rhetoric into laws that hold up in court. And as many of yall have probably heard the Sunak govt is considering Section...

    The Republican War on Transgender People, Drag Queens, and Queerness in General

    I haven't really had time to post lately but absolutely, yes. Normally I'm fine with a certain level of thread derailment but if you - @malelesbian - are just going push your singular obsession in the exact same way can you just go back to your own thread dedicated specifically to that...

    Cults

    Didn't see this before but yeah the U.S. 12 Tribes have extremely weird, problematic views on and complex relationships with Black people and Judaism. They're similar to Mormons in that regard. One time in Burlington I overheard a 12 Tribes guy (I think) trying to explain their view of Jews and...

    Cults

    Without actually knowing, my guess would be that Satmars owned a significant % of Williamsburg real estate pre-gentrification, and Hasidic sects are extremely socially cohesive so they look after their own - that town I mentioned is sustained I believe by a combination of copious govt aid and...

    Cults

    As I may or may not have mentioned before, I spent almost my entire adolescence kicking around New England, plenty familiar with the Twelve Tribes. Very much a Rastafarian/Black Israelite vibe, except White hippies - organic/natural everything combined with millennarian Christianity, rigid...

    The Republican War on Transgender People, Drag Queens, and Queerness in General

    For anyone interested, the thread of that first Tweet goes into the court decision in some detail. Not going to do anything for minors or the bathroom law, but it will probably allow trans adults to get the care that was cut off by the draconian measures in FL's law (same strategy RW used...

    The Republican War on Transgender People, Drag Queens, and Queerness in General

    It was worst of times https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2023/06/06/us/hrc-lgbtq-emergency-declared/index.html It was the slightly less worse of times Mostly it was the worst of times tho (and that is honestly pretty tame compared to, for example, the multiple death and bomb threats that have been...

    The Feminine Perspective against the Manosphere

    Yes, I am aware of that. The article and literally any other article about her makes that clear. The clear implication you made was look at this creepy weirdo stealing his dead gf's name, which is easily refutable with 10 seconds of research. Essentially anything you say about trans people and...

    It's a Matt Walsh wet dream. Carte blanche to drop the thin subtext and openly call for executing trans people in the street.

    The Feminine Perspective against the Manosphere

    I guess we're all just going to continue getting baited, except jenks who has the wisdom to stay away, cos I just can't with this nonsense Patently untrue People are uninterested in your theory and the very specific and narrow confines within which it demands the patriarchy be fought. To say...

    The Feminine Perspective against the Manosphere

    I know right that was particularly crazy, from someone who's like entire thing is the semiotics of gender "Society determines the significance and meaning of all cultural output, except in my case where I can use terms to mean whatever I want and any reader should just ignore their commonly...
