    The worst thing about TERFs' obsession with dystopian literature is they just freely rewrite the actual book in their heads The "wrongthink" thing isn't even the worst thing, compared to the truly bizarre insistence the Commanders in The Handmaid's Tale are trans women

        I still vividly remember how the "Brighton ReSisters" account confidently told me if I had actually read the book I'd know that the Jezebel's sequence describes the Commanders as cross-dressing perverts (there is no such scene in the book)

        Not the Commanders, the Wives, was how I heard it. Commanders are cis men Wives trans women Marthas infertile cis women Handmaid's fertile cis women (Leaving out aunts and trans men entirely?).

        Meanwhile in the actual story we are the dead people hung on the wall that Offred passes on her walk.

        What...? In what possible world does that make sense? They are pretty clearly Christian male patriarchs. That was the whole point of the book.

        I have heard them refer to words like "cis" as "newspeak" because, as you know, newspeak is when you speak new words. no other connotations, surely. having new words to describe things is dystopian.

        It's especially ironic because Newspeak in the book is actually about *removing* words from the language, so that only the orthodoxy can be expressed.

        Especially since Atwood already covered this entire subject.

        It took a turn when they started arguing with Margaret Atwood about her own god damn book
