neurotypical women can apparently clock your autism within seconds yet neurotypical men are too socially oblivious to recognize social incongruity but what exactly are male social incompetence limits? When it becomes an ideological alibi ??one that drifts to rape apologia??
@starniite my experience is that neurodivergent women are more comfortable around men, because men aren't as good as picking up awkwardness. neurotypical women can be very cruel unfortunately
Had marginalized populations waited for sufficiently detached observers to study, categorize, and validate their oppression before speaking on it, many emancipatory movements would never have emerged in the first place. Yall white colonial anthropologists can dye actually
Invoking pseudo universal epistemological principle just to have selective skepticism disproportionately deployed against forms of knowledge historically associated with women
This triumph of “lived experience” over study has been disastrous for political analysis as a whole. Living your life as a certain group gives you no real expertise in analyzing their struggles and doesn’t make you an authority on the political of philosophical study of them.
Intellectual institutions & academia have always been deeply entangled with existing power structures, if anything history should make us cautious about treating elite intellectual opinion as inherently superior to the experiences of the people those theories are describing.
Cannot believe yall are actually agreeing with this buttass take giving examplesof class traitor women okay? Pointing to a subset of women with bad politics does not change that fact it merely demonstrates that women, like every other political constituency, are not a hive mind.
Who criticised white feminism? Women. Who developed Black feminism? Women. Who developed intersectional feminism? Women. Who challenged trans exclusionary feminism? Women. The major corrections to feminism's blind spots were overwhelmingly produced by women themselves, lol
@anamorphisis The irony is that the attempt to disqualify women from authority over feminism because some women are imperfect is itself a remarkably liberal move. It treats authority &rep as valid only when a group is morally pure.
the further away, the higher 1s status. Consider whats seen as white? beauty, values, fashion, culture…they are defined in opposition to what is socially devalued, psychologically stigmatized & culturally policed: blackness & this why anti blackness is found in every society
Its because blackness is the baseline of social devaluation and whiteness an arbitrary gradient created for its distance from blackness, ‘poc’ who are anti black want their chance to be the next white. If europeans ceased to exist east asians would gladly be the next white
This is actually weird cos Black peoples have done absolutely nothing to Asians
We didn’t bomb their country not did we enslave them yet they have deep hatred for us
Our only crime was being born Black
Arabs hate being compared to southasians, east asians hate being compared to southeastasians, why we have colorism texturism featurism, they are positioned from their distance from blackness. The closer one is associated with traits coded as Black, the lower one's status;
@ruicharadrius "POC this, POC that, our real enemy..." yeah, miss me with that bullshit. It's fascinating how "solidarity" only seems to become urgent when anti-Black racism in non-white communities is the topic of discussion.
