Things I've noticed happen in the general vicinity of my posts:
- Fundie nutjobs reduced to curling up in a little ball, plugging their ears, and spewing either contentless religious copypasta (Freeman) or barely-coherent amateur apologia (Bot).
- The Shitey Uzzard degenerating into mudslinging and pretending (badly) not to care when defeated in arguments...every single one of them.
- Insecure manchildren accusing me of being a transsexual (some random AC) on one hand, and on the other, an actual transwoman accusing me of being a TERF (Kurenai).
- Creeps like VLM, KHallow, JMorris, Entropy, and all their kind simply giving the hell up and abandoning ship when faced with a proper down-smacking for their fallacious sociopathy.
When you have people on the fringes everywhere angry with you, each of them accusing you of the precise opposite on the spectrum they hate, you must be doing something right. In all my time here, I've never gone in for trolling, deception, or shitposting. I've always stood for what's right, and took the fight to those who would try to spread their noetic poisons, fighting it everywhere it appears for the sake of anyone unfortunate enough to encounter it, knowing full well the originators of such poison are by their own choice irredeemable, certainly so in this lifetime.
And my approach drives them nuttier than squirrel vomit.
Well boo fucking hoo. When someone on here tells me I'm bitchy or angry, I just laugh, because what they really mean is "you're making me uncomfortable by exposing my bullshit in such direct, uncompromising, profanity-laced ways." It's pretty obvious the accusations of being a transsexual come from sheltered, misogynist little manchildren who can't handle actual women speaking the plain, unvarnished truth to them, because they have so little truck with the opposite sex they've never seen it in the real world before. No, this insult to their manly honor cannot stand! ONLY another man could POSSIBLY have the balls, literal balls, to stand up to them! (And of course the kind of person who'd make this argument lumps MtFs under the heading of "man." I don't, though I do draw an important distinction between transwomen and cisgender women because, frankly, they are never going to know what it is to have a period or risk being pregnant).
Time to put on your big-boy undies and join the adult world! The toughest people I know are all women, including my own mother and some of the nurses at work. I'm a marshmallow compared to them.
And I don't regret anything, as painful as it's been sometimes. Am I a "nice girl?" No, and haven't been for several years, and you know what? It's better this way. "Nice girls" get used and taken advantage of and thrown away and never have their needs met. "Nice girls" are the permanent victims of tone trolling by people too frightened or too weak to deal with them as the full human beings they are. In this place, at this time, as this site sinks further and further into RWNJ decay, all it means is I'll fight all the harder.
What I hope this does is encourage the people on here who still seek the light to defend it. Hit back. We're seeing on a number of scales, from the President's capitulation on his stupid bullshit shutdown right down to the examples at the head of this post, that the sociopaths are like any bully: weak, cowardly, amoral types who don't expect and can't handle sustained, principled pushback. Part of it is that evil simply can't comprehend good, but mostly it comes down to how bullies work and have always worked. Anyone who wants to join me in fighting the good fight, please do: we've seen that it works.

...Jesus fuck. Out of that entire post, THIS is what you take away from it and write a freaking essay-length reply to?! Kurenai, I know a total of one, ONE, even half-sane transwoman and it is not you. I will never become a TERF, but I'm sick and tired of you making everyfuckingthing about yourself and throwing your lot in with the conservatives--LIKE THE TERFS DO!--over your own mistreatment. Do you understand that you are making things harder for all women, cis or trans, with this bullshit?
You know fucking well what is meant by bringing up pregnancy, menstruation, and yes, abortion: transwomen simply do not need to worry about these things. The one place I sympathize with TERFs is the fear of limited resources being siphoned away from the very real problems we face over those issues to trans issues. I disagree with their exclusionary policies, but I'm also not stupid about it. Cis and transwomen are different kinds of people with fundamentally different needs.
I am "that girl" your mother warned you about...

Nice dodge! You're the one who called me out, and I presented several issues with your proposed demarcation of transgender and cisgender.
What is your point with this? It does not seem to simply be an appeal for individualized healthcare. Do you seek to somehow construct an argument that trans women (including all of the newfound trans women who were deluded into thinking they are cisgender simply because they were assigned the female gender at birth) owe you something because we do not have reproductive systems that meet your standards?

Can you be specific? What resources, exactly, are being “siphoned away?”

The pregnancy, the menstruation and the abortion. Big problems, right? They don't have to be. They don't have to be. We have a terrific solution for them -- Pill. Which we've had since the '60s -- magnificent time to be alive. They say "oh, a Pill is medieval." Well, so is a wheel. A wheel is older than a Pill. The wheel is older than the Pilll, you know that? There are some things that work. You know what? A wheel works and a Pill works. Nothing like a Pill. And so many folks take Pill, they say, "oh, it's so horrible, so much blood, disgusting!" It is disgusting, right?
But some very smart people listened. The O. B. G. Y. N. They looked into that one and -- this is a new thing, so beautiful -- they found out we don't need that one. They put the Fake Pills. Delicious Sugar Pills. And, so much blood, right? Very wet from the standpoint of blood. But, they're finding out it's O. K. to leave those out. It's less candy, a little less of the candy -- and we all love the very special candy the Doctor gives us. But a lot less blood. And it's totally fine.
