all the traits good and bad often considered feminine or masculine exist in both sexes. the notion that they are inherent to ether and not the other is just stereotyping used to push narratives that at some point or another became convenient to ill intentioned people of both.

if someone tries to tell you they or someone else are better than you just for what they where born as, laugh in their face. same goes for if someone tries to tell you that you're better than someone else just for what you where born as.

both Bill & Hillary Clinton, Bill Gates and J.K. Rowling, Whoopi Goldberg, Elon Musk, all these people and more are in the files. it's neither a question of chromosome combinations nor gender identity. some people seem to really want to push the notion that it is but doing so does no one any favors.

women are no better, it's just been easier for female abusers to get away with it because of the systemic bias about what an abuser and victim look like far as their sex. long as you define ether by such things you're falling into the same traps and enabling it all.

i wish i where surprised to see so many people selectively focusing on the male perpetrators in the Epstein files while ignoring the vast majority of the female perpetrators who did or where complicit in the same things & using this as a means to reinforce sexism & female supremacist ideology.

if you think any particular demographic within the working class is naturally superior or inferior to the others then you are falling into the same ideological power dynamics that have kept the ruling class in the position of being the ruling class all along.

just because of the way this is and will be framed this is probably going to be a problem for actual cyborgs too, which are human beings with bionic prosthetics. a demographic that already faces hate crimes against them and has for some time.

Poster showing Donald Trump's face superimposed over images of fires in Baghdad during the Iraq war. the caption reads: No war with Iran! The people of the United States and the world reject the Trump Regime’s preperations for a murderous war of aggression against Iran. No amount of violence abroad will fix our problems at home! No more senseless war!

NO WAR WITH IRAN!!!

i'm getting the impression that if Trump isn't removed real soon he's about to do something stupid that will trigger a response from a particular nuclear armed nation that has stated they will not be the first to strike, but if the US strikes first the US will not strike a second time.

it also matters for transgender people treated as monsters by TERFS. plus again, denying any sex or gender their humanity dehumanizes them all.

if you wonder why a care enough to risk backlash for writing this. it certainly matters when you're a male survivor and anywhere from denied support to treated as an abuser simply for being male, or the constant microaggressions and psychological abuse.

which in turn makes those rights less secure for women.

a major way in which feminism and women's rights oppose each other is that women's rights is simply about basic human rights and respect for women in general terms. while feminism shifts that focus towards bigotry and systemically denying those same rights to non-women.

everything i've seen feminism as an ideology and movement try to put on "men" and non-women i've also seen them do to men and non-women and then try and use "patriarchy" as justification for though. much the same way as misogynist influencers do to women.

a large part of the tactic the ruling class uses to control the rest of us is to try to get different working class groups to blame each other as a whole, and even abuse each other in the same ways they blame each other for while they abuse and take advantage of everyone in those same ways.

🧵 i'd definitely say that feminism and women's rights are two ideologically distinct & often opposing movements. suspect as well that the chauvinism & fascism inherent to feminist theory was engineered by the kind of people in the Epstein files in the same way as Q Anon & the rest of the alt right.

freaking out over the sense of having just been plucked out of one year and then just dropped over a decade later without having lived any of the time in between.

I can't help but realize that the self styled adults in the room who have been shouting down anyone with any progressive ideas have been deferring to the consensus of a eugenicist billionaire pedophile death cult and I just think we should stop listening to them entirely and maybe stop them.

Reminder: The US is punishing Cuba for regaining its sovereignty and its successes outside global capitalism.

i know they have a profile here at @goimagine.bsky.social but are on Instagram more at www.instagram.com/goimagine.li...

don't know if it would make any difference to tell them as much.

selling anywhere can be pretty hit or miss but at least they're more straight forward about their fees than Etsy

looks like they may be just giving up too, if they'd let us know they where in trouble sooner i'm sure lots of it's members would of tried to help.

Sweet Peeps;
Let us help Rania if we can.

they're kind of like Etsy, but run as a non-profit. they meant to donate any profits the platform makes to various charities for children in need. they also have a ban on AI and dropshippers, vet applicants, and take suggestions from members on how it should be run. here's my page

i really hope Goimagine can be saved, i really don't want to do back to Etsy. Etsy is full of AI, Nazis, Grifters, and the platform it's self is always trying to take advantage of you.

good luck meditating while having rolls of toilet paper thrown at you

btw, Civet oil is known to attract large cats such as mountain lions. though it smells literally like ass given that that is where it comes from on the civet cat it can be uses as a pheromone to draw mountain lions to a particular area if you are so inclined.
