You need all this to know! Nazis are real & not the tooth fairy or Santa Claus. You need to see Nazis raising their Nazis kids to know they’re here?
This is White Privilege on full display.. #Blacklivesmatter gets demonized and blamed for everything people are even trying to frame BLM and actually get compared with the KKK (not even close) but now you have these white supremacist Nazi sympathizers who changed their name to ‘alt-right’ to try to soften their image and now they’re trying to make it seem like they’re not really about white supremacy.
“The political establishment has made an entire generation of young white men and women into fascists, and that’s a beautiful thing!” ~ Matthew Heimbach, Traditionalist Worker Party leader
This is the craziness that we live in as long as black people have on this continent. And the media is culpable is implicit in helping shape these narratives… #Hate it!
This is the leader of the guys who stabbed our AntiFA in Sacramento.
Kill Trads, Nazis, and Fash of all kinds.
This is Communismkills’ ex boyfriend btw.
So yeah. This is happening.
Like, are we all aware this is happening?
Really happening?
Meanwhile BLM gets absolutely demonized just for saying “Please stop killing us. Black lives matter too”. You will never see them humanize any marginalized people as much as they will humanize the scum of the earth.
I can’t believe we’re down to humanizing white supremacists. But lord forbid you call these people what they really are, because liberals have already decided their views aren’t “that bad” as long as they’re “normal”.
its okay if they’re members of actual terrorist organizations and hate groups, as long as they dress nice and have nuclear families!
Mongolians are cool because they’ve merged their traditional and modern ways of life so rather than having poverty due to losing all their important skills they just live in their yurts with their cows and 827474874mbs internet
sure their GDP in dollars is low but when you can survive like your anscestors did it doesn’t mean anything, nothing wrong with adding a motorcycle and wifi into the mix
Everyone should live like their ancestors did 1000 years ago but with the addition of wifi tbh
Adapt. Survive.
this is the single most inspiring piece of information I have yet to come across in all my moments in this world
being gay has changed almost all of my/my friends interactions with the rest of society so PLEASE stop saying it “makes you no different” and “it doesn’t affect you” and “everyone is the same”. this is a childish, ineffective way to address internalized homophobia.
your intentions are good, but you’re erasing years of trauma, abuse and isolation within gay populations caused by homophobic violence.
closeted or not, every gay person has had their interactions with others shaped by fear of homophobic retaliation. it’s not as simple as “they like the same sex”. it’s cultural. it’s beaten into us from reading age to reject “gayness” and femininity.
gay people do act differently from straight people, not because they are gay, but because they are raised in a society that rejects them, even before they know they’re different.
So I’ve been having this thought for a while now that I wanted to talk about with other trans masculine people who like women.
So, our experience with coming to terms with liking girls is nothing like a straight cis man’s.
And I mean that in the sense that, until I figured out I was trans at the age of 15, my experience of coming out and accepting my bisexuality (that’s how I first identified) was indistinguishable from that of any queer woman’s.
And maybe that’s why there are so many trans guys who come to terms with being trans and then really struggle to accept that they are straight.
Because being straight is the default. Growing up, my attraction to boys was never questioned, but I was terrified the first time I got a crush on a girl. I lived in denial about my sexuality for 2 years.
So now, visibly, I pass alright. People on the street read me as male. So if I have a boyfriend I’ll be visibly gay.
But internally? I don’t think of it like that. It’s been 3 years since I came out and I still haven’t been able to switch my thinking.
To me, liking boys is still the “default” and liking girls is still terrifying, unknown territory.
So I open this post to other trans people, what are your thoughts on this?
I totally get what you mean, i’ve often said that the way i love women is fundamentally different to the way that cis men love women.
I thought i was wlw for longer than i’ve known i’m mlm and so for me personally i am more situated into my attraction to women, especially because until I realized i was a trans man I was only interested in dating women.
The issue i personally have with my attraction to women is how much does it affect my place of privilege? like dating women feels really hard for me because i genuinely don’t want to recreate uneven heterosexual power differences and it’s hard to get it through my head that that could never be really true because i’m not a cisgender heterosexual person and i would never put those on any other bi trans man but i also never want to put that pressure onto a woman if that makes any sense?
I don’t know maybe it’s because i dated so many girls for a while and maybe it’s because I analyze myself too much but neither feels the default, being mlm is still so new and fresh to me and dating women feels like this forbidden zone due to my brains own weird thought processes
