      Your friend started this by trying to define historical transmisogyny out of existence in a patently ridiculous way ("They could all just put on pants and be immune to persecution!") So no, I think we're all the ones who are sick of this shithttps://twitter.com/msediewyatt/status/1343883386285293568 …

      I am sick to death of seeing these guys CONSTANTLY try to minimise the history of the persecution of women for political purposes. I know men have suffered, trans people have suffered but just get off our backs and allow us to have our own sex, and advocate for women and girls. https://twitter.com/arthur_affect/status/1343845769581772801 …

      "allow us to have our own sex" like i really am curious how it threatens ms wyatt's sex, specifically, for you to point out that gender nonconforming people were burned at the stake

      anyways i am i reminded of the grotesque outrage terfs express when you remind them that gay, trans, and lesbian people were massacred in the holocaust as if we're insulting some sacred memory by pointing out that we were a part of it

      Replying to @perdricof @arthur_affect

      this attachment to fake narratives expressed as a sense of ownership of history what get called elsewhere "founding myths" arguments from the emotional or political need ("only women were burned at the stake because we have to have our own sex!") rather than any evidence

      Replying to @perdricof

      The Burning Times myth is... a fraught issue, but it is very clearly a myth (in the sense of being plainly historically false) And it's unfortunate that it's gone from "Let neopagans have a founding myth, their hearts are in the right place" to being a rally point for bigotry

      Like the thing they specifically want it to be to justify their narrative - a wave of mass femicide, millions of women slaughtered "simply for being born with a womb" - just plain did not happen

      And this fantasy version of the witch trials pretty clearly serves a certain ideological purpose that ends up being sinister If witch hunts are definitionally a war of all men against all women then women can never be witch hunters themselves

      Even though, shit, respectable women in positions of privilege using the state to punish women on the margins who threaten their position isn't just a possible way a "witch hunt" happens it's one of the major archetypal ways they happen

      Yeah, I mean - Salem is an odd case all around, but it's fairly clearly NOT a war of men against women, despite the gendered aspects.

      One of the most discussed and controversial aspects of Salem specifically is that the accusers were teenage girls!

          Right! Although I think that alone isn't enough; the prosecutors, judges, and executioners were men, who were certainly capable of ignoring teenage girls' complaints in other contexts.

          The darkly funny thing is that it's pretty much the same playbook as the current TERF effort, to find teenage girls to claim as the primary 'victims,' and then turning to the state's justice system.

          Yeah, although also a bit of literary invention; Abigail Williams was 12, the other girls were younger.
