Let’s be LITERAL VIOLENCE

Everyone and everything hurts me! Life is so unfair!

by Anonymousreply 97June 13, 2021 7:01 PM

I’m performative allyship. Pretending to be a queer/trans ally is even worse than being outright hateful.

I'm Stephen King's statement that he votes for Best Picture based on the quality of the movie. Roxane Gay has a LOT to say about this literal violence, and she is going to bring King DOWN!

I am stunning. And brave.

Stephen King backed down by telling the transtapo that "trans women are women" when they confronted him about JK Rowling, whom he used to be friendly with. So he'll probably back down on this, too, R3.

Yeah, except not one of those deaths was caused by the mostly peaceful protestors. One unarmed peaceful protestor was basically murdered by Nancy Pelosi's personal shock troops, and the others died of natural causes. You need to stop watching CNN and learn the truth.

In honor of the batshit T at R72's link:

[quote]Gay men that don’t want vagina are transphobic dipshits. They tell us not to change the definition of gay, but they change the definition of man so it excludes trans men. ... When in fact trans men are men and I know a huuuuuge amount of trans men who go on gay dating apps, hide their gender and surprise cis gay men with their vaginas to teach them men can have vaginas.

I'm the reality that, no matter how much you insist, pump yourself full of horse piss hormones, or mutilate your body, you can never change sex and will never be satisfied.
