      TERFs have absolutely gotten as far as they have because to a certain degree they've "cracked the code" of how to appear as a victim regardless of the degree to which you're obviously acting as an aggressor They understand it's *who you are* that matters and not *what you do*https://twitter.com/JuliaSerano/status/1336515747787333633 …

      ...many people have trouble thinking of cis women as bona fide harassers. as an aside, I think this explains some of the QAnon phenomenon, where it's threatening aspects become less obvious as it becomes more & more associated w/"soccer moms" (the U.S. version of Mumsnet?)...

      Ultimately that's what they mean by "sex-based rights" ("Keeping predators out of vulnerable spaces" = "Keeping penises out of vagina spaces"), it's part of their worldview But it means they're really good at thinking this way and playing this game

          If you frame the narrative the right way you can get away with any fucking thing -- and in this case that means instrumentalizing the fuck out of feminine respectability politics Working really hard on letting everyone know you're "the right kind of woman"

          Good God the fucking conversations I've had with well-meaning allies on this website The ones that essentially boil down to "Okay, I can kind of see how TERFs are philosophically similar to Nazis and would be natural political allies But aren't 'Nazis' supposed to be... men?"

          (cn: rt is reply to TERFs) When you get right down to it, this is the same cis white girl thing of putting on a massive wounded gazelle routine because literally ANYBODY has called them out, knowing that their tears will activate their privilege over anyone more marginalized https://twitter.com/arthur_affect/status/1144340329203507201 …

          Replying to @arthur_affect

          I had a recent political philosophy textbook by a cis white Brit assigned this quarter and it absolutely staggered me that he just… did the “women have special needs and that’s why they need special rights”, in those words, with utter faith the reader was following his handwaves
