i'll never forget the time my team in overwatch was being fucking horrible to me, throwing because i was a girl on Baptiste (???) and calling me fat, spewing sexist shit- whatever nothing i haven't dealt with before.
and when i asked in match chat for the enemy team to report him, they piled on with him instead, saying i deserved it, that im fucking terrible continuing the sexist filth tenfold
and then my team told me I WAS THE PROBLEM for speaking out against it, for telling him to fuck off and leave me alone. that I WAS making it a big deal
what was a 1v1 situation, somehow dog piled into this ENTIRE LOBBY slinging sexist shit at me for EXISTING in a video game...
after that game i went to my now fiancé and BAWLED ontop of him for a long, long, long time. i just didn't, and still don't, understand what is so wrong with ME that i deserved that kind of treatment. why WE deserve that treatment
i get her rage, i get her pain. i know some people will say "oh it's just a game" because no its not just a game; these same men just SEE women as LESSER. in EVERYTHING!!! not just games
ITS NEVER JUST. A. GAME.
I'm a female student from Seoul, Korea who support feminism, and I feel unsafe to speak out that I'm a feminist. People use the term "Femi" as an insult here. Women are threatened, insulted, harassed everyday because we are "women". We suffer things that never happen to men
my heart breaks for the disabled ppl of palestine. the pain, the devastation, the anguish. how many disabled ppl have israel slaughtered? how many ppl have israel mutilated n disabled? i just do not have the words to describe this level of depravity.
BREAKING: Israel is now bombing 1.7 million civilians trapped in Rafah, threatening an imminent invasion of the last “safe place” in Gaza.
Israel is committing the worst crimes in modern history, and Western regimes are calling it “self-defense”.
Never forget. Never forgive.
