In the fight between 'is the left or right more misogynistic' at this point I truly believe 'leftist' men who are pro - TRA and pro-sex trade are INFINITELY more evil, hate us MORE and more capable of literally cheering our obvious enslavement than right wing men. Here's why 1/9
Being right wing, objectionable as it is, is pedestrian, and a more primitive state of our being. Selfishness, self interest, tribalism, control, fear of the other - which underlies RW ideology- horrible as they are, all of these sentiments are very human, inescapable almost. 2/9
In more primitive states, we all tend towards these. It is annoying but real. But here's the thing - they do it to everyone. They dislike any 'other', they think poverty is the poor's fault, they're open about their lack of collective conscious towards EVERYONE but themselves 3/9
Leftist men apply nuance and scrutiny to Amazon warehouses, they wax eloquent about 'complex choices' when it comes to racial minoritites, they drip sympathy over poor people selling plasma and would NEVER tolerate 'self identification' of race or ethnicity. Except wrt women 4/9
When it comes to women? Leftist men HAPPILY consume, champion murderous, savage porn, endlessly defend people's right to jerk off to rape and torture. They bleat 'choice' as if they'd ever accept that re Amazon. They rob us of our category, and would never do that in re race 5/9
They yowl 'SomE LiKE It OKaY' as if THEY of all people don't know the complexity of choice, or that some can damage many. They get women fired, cancelled, threatened with rape for daring to not have their language sold and bastardized and shrilly scream against scrutiny 6/9
It *is easy to be right-wing. Self-interest, fear of the other, desire for homogeneity.. its shitty, but all too human. Right wing men are uniformly selfish and individualist in re ALL. Leftist men? Humanity, scrutiny, nuance collective action for THEIR pet groups. Not women. 7/9
All of their principles go out the door when it comes to women. Ignorance and propaganda doesn't explain this, it conflicts with all their positions- they of all people had the tools to see the stupidity. Pure, unadulterated evil explains this. Thats how much they hate us. 8/9
These men dominate the conversation. As much as I LOATHE the right wing - the most obvious RWer is way way less dangerous to women than the leftist who says terf and swerf. Right wing men are a known, obvious danger. The malice of these leftist men cannot be understated 9/9
