fucking hate my chess theory class. the professor is just talking about opening moves and shit. when i suggested my theory that perhaps the queen on each side was actually a pawn who was promoted before the game even began everyone laughed at me

many people on tumblr seem to think genderclass behaves on the level of mystical declaration, like religious faith, which only functions from the moment of internal ritual wherein someone states their unchanging true transcendent metaphysical internal gender, at which point their past experiences are retroactively transfigured into the gender they are.
gender is about power.
Fascist language isn't just about slang or 4chan words, it's also about how you talk about and to other people. I want you to notice how many "leftist" memes are rooted in shame and superiority. I want you to notice canned and reductive talking points. I want you to wrestle with your own bias towards other people being "stupid" or "lazy", and notice when the content you consume confirms these biases. Your smug sense of superiority isn't cute. It's a root cause of your alienation from other people. You lack an ability to take a principled stance that doesn't also position you as "above" someone who lacks the same information or ability as you. You lack the ability to explain your principled stance in a way that doesn't put them down and alienate them from your cause.
You need to change. Not someone else. You.
