Peak Radphlegm II

ladymaxwell:

     You know, I hear people say, “only on tumblr is a lesbian not liking penis controversial.” This isn’t quite true. Being a lesbian is controversial pretty much anywhere. It’s only on tumblr that we’re considered big bad oppressors.
     Offline people don’t really use that justification to perpetuate homophobia. They have different reasons to accomplish the same thing. There’s stuff about “women’s role,” stuff about religion, or whatever. You’re probably aware of the typical justification people use to back up their homophobia, and attempt to get lesbians to sleep with men. But we’re controversial everywhere. We get this crap from all directions.
     It just takes a unique, and almost bitterly humorous form when it comes from the “queer” community. All this talk about gender, transmisogyny- what the fuck ever. It’s the same old shit. Heterosexual guys wanting to sleep with lesbians. Like who among us (lesbians) have not found ourselves a fetish of some het guy? For a lot of us this is the same old shit. The only difference is these guys, with their special gender identity, want us to think it’s a part of our lesbian “identity” to be attracted to them. They want us to think we’re bigots for actually being gay. Imagine that, gays being bigots for being, you know, homosexual. That’s the only new part.
     I’ve been considered flawed, defective, repulsive, etc. for being gay but I’ve never just been considered a bigot. That’s new. But for the most part it’s just the same old song and dance- some dudes upset that lesbians are gay and don’t want the D.

This is untrue.

We have long considered you *just* a bigot.

 kisslessvirg said: that’s stupid. this whole post is attacking a pop-culture understanding of feminism that largely only exists on the internet. that isn’t even ‘real’ feminism. and yes, radscum are looked down on with shame, since when have they not?

No true scotsman fallacy.  You do not get to dictate what is and what is not “real” feminism.  These people are operating under the feminist label same as the rest, and they sure haven’t been ostracized by the rest of the movement in any meaningful way.  Regardless, have you even seen the crap that comes out of academic feminism?  We’ll give you a hint: it’s not pretty.

We like that response.

What I hate about radfems is that they don’t want equality, they just want a systematical matriarchy and want all men gone it seems. I really just want to say what the fuck is your point.

While not entirely accurate, we will note that what you describe does sorta fit nto the whole reason it is called Radical, you know….

assortedthoughtsofelah:

Things that do NOT belong in the feminism tag:

• “OMG I hate feminists”
• Sexism, including sexist jokes
• “Stupid Feminazis omg I just wanna be a misogynist without being called out”
• Women should die type posts

Things that do NOT belong in the Radfem and Radical Feminism tags:

• “OMG DIE CIS SCUM I HATE RADSCUM STOP BREATHING GO DIE”
• “All feminists should be drenched in cum.” (I legit saw that)
• ALL UNINTELLIGENT ARGUMENTS AGAINST RADICAL FEMINISM

If you post unintelligent arguments against feminism or radical feminism in these tags, if you post sexism and misogyny in these tags, if you are telling people to kill themselves for being either a feminist or a radfem…

We’d just like to add to the above list the following:

• unintelligent arguments for radical feminism that usually center on how horrible trans women are.

Of course, if all of the above were actually put into place, then there would be nothing in the radfem tags.

As a result, we are sorta obligated to note that the above post is really nothing much more than someone doing the fake radfem version of a beauty pageant contestant’s “world peace” statement.

Ah, yes, because mass murder is always something you want to spread around the internet when the message you want people to get about you is that you are a sad, pathetic little excuse for a misgynist.

Feminists, you fucking twit, are the reason that there aren’t *more* mass murders like that. 

Okay moron, why don’t you say any of that when feminists keep saying shit like “kill all men”? Feminists on Tumblr like to talk about killing men for a laugh, but I’m suddenly a big ol’ meanie because I turn their vitriol back on them? Why is it that feminists love to dish it out, but they can’t take it? If you think mass murder is bad, you should probably try telling that to your psychotic feminist sisters. I promise I won’t ever say “kill all feminists” again if feminists stop saying “kill all men”. Sorry for sounding childish, but you feminists started this.

You spelled “misogynist” wrong.

There are more than one of us, so that should have been plural. Since we are stooping to high degrees of insecurity by whining about typing errors.

Also, you stupid goddamned fuck, why don’t you take a moment to check into stuff before you establish that you are a lying sack of shit by noting that we we *do* say stuff like that the feminists who such things (generally speaking, a very, very small number of them who have decided to pretend to be radical feminists while making arguments that uphold the patriarchy).

Why, we even have a list, and they come to us to ask to be included on it. 

Also, you apparently lack the brain your feminist mother (assuming she was born in the last century as opposed to the one before it, since as everyone knows, feminism created an entire generation of women who are feminists and usually don’t even realize it) birthed you with, because if you did, you would realize that holding a relatively small population responsible for the actions of a larger population is pretty much REALLY FUCKING RETARDED.

sorry for that outburst of horribly offensive terminology  but you’ve gone way past being a fucking asshole. With luck, people who are often referred to with that pejorative will only be insulted that I applied to you, given it doesn’t quite fit, since you make effort to be a stupid fuck.

We loathe people like you who are so butt hurt about some pretty patently stupid fucking assholes that you immediately forget that the point was you used a photograph of dead people to make your point, and you never once though about how fucking much of a scumbag it makes you to use the deaths of people murdered in an act of genocide (you were aware of what the picture is of, weren’t you?) for your petty, penny ante bullshit whinging online just because you let some woman get your goat.

Kick back, and read through our archives for a bit if you *really* want to know how to argue with the fucking assholes you hate, and hit them where it hurts.

otherwise, just apologize and never do it again! 

Oh really? I should just apologize and never do it again? Really? And then you’ll be my best friend forever? Promise? Nah, I think I’ll keep espousing the truth and all you Social Justice Warriors can fuck yourselves forever. I’ll never placate Social Justice Warriors, I hate all of you.

Like I said, take all this useless ranting and tell it to your feminists buddies, they’re the ones who started all this “kill all ____”. 

And no, my mother isn’t a feminist. She hates feminists more than I do. I used to be a feminist until quite recently, but I’ve read a lot of feminist writings and I came to the conclusion that they’re generally spiteful idiots who constantly espouse misinformation. I tried to sympathize with feminists for as long as I could, but I can’t agree with people who are so determined in their fatuity. We’re all grateful to those early feminists who really did make great changes for women, but the feminists I see now don’t resemble them. The feminists I see now just seem to be smug assholes who constantly say “check your privilege” whenever they’re faced with any counter-opinions. Every feminist I’ve spoken to just makes straw man arguments and uses rad-fem platitudes when you argue with them, so I give up, I’ve given up on trying to reason with them. I don’t think a feminist can actually be reasoned with. They’re self-righteous, smug, pretentious pricks. 

The picture I used doesn’t depict genocide. This is a picture of a bunch of brainwashed idiots who were part of a cult, and they all committed suicide (they literally drank the Kool-Aid). They weren’t murdered. It’s an appropriate picture because radical feminism is like cult. So yeah, I’m not sorry about anything. Get over it.

Wow.

So they “weren’t murdered”.  Funny, only deluded pyschopaths would think that. Unless of course they are ignorant fucks.

It is genocide.  But lying seems to be a really well learned skill of yours. 

We aren’t social justice warriors.

Like we said, we do.

Your mother is a feminist.  We can tell by the fact that she is able to speak her mind and say what you claim.

Only feminists can do that.

So at least we now know you think of your mother as a smug, pretentious, self righteous prick.

How fitting.
