radfems and trans people have more in common than either party is willing to admit and unity will do infinitely more to dismantle the patriarchy than division will
@UtterlyInterest Up Your Ass was later found with Warhol’s possessions when he died so she was kinda right all along. Only thing she ever did wrong was miss.
torn between looks for my Masters grad ceremony - cannot tell if I should be Serving Cunt (chic dress where I look great) or serving Distilled Stef-core (bikini kill shirt with docs)
@DirectorGumby Totally get how it reads, no stress - I just really hate the guy and also am a fan of Solanas' work, so hold a general "he had it coming" stance for various factors
ur natural ally is not pronatalist racist conservatives it is transsexuals, perhaps the group of people with the greatest depth of understanding re disparity of gendered treatment!
keep accidentally ending up on t3rf twitter bc we agree on most of the important things until they start saying shit like "saying pregnant people is dehumanising"
@drycuticles@UtterlyInterest I'm of the general stance that manifestoes as a medium exist in a schrodingers state of seriousness - they're as authentic/inauthentic as their viewer decides. Personally given Solanas' satirical history I treat SCUM as agitprop, not necessarily /serious/ but spiritually true.
@DirectorGumby@UtterlyInterest Warhol was an abusive fame leech who used people to the extent that they were convenient to him and is culpable in the deaths of Edie Sedgwick and Basquiat - I have little sympathy for him.
@UtterlyInterest Correction: the copy he had was found in a box of Billy Name’s lighting equipment. Regardless, the facts remain that he took her manuscript and would go on to “misplace” it, intentionally or no.
@drycuticles@UtterlyInterest Frankly considering the timeframe I find Solanas’ view on transsexuality quite progressive. In her (satirical) utopian feminist society transsexuals are permitted to exist and treated differently to men. It’s no more transphobic than most of her peers in the movement at the time.
if you guys love this, you guys will absolutely LOVE what they would call a “chick blender”. It was used for the other half of chicks you don’t see in this video 🥰😍
