Oh and by the way, regarding another online *discourse* of the last few days that was fairly rancid, here you go. Rest in peace, not power, Gloria Steinem, intersectional feminist anticommunist par excellence: patreon.com/posts/168891387

Eight theses on Gloria Steinem, because goddamn | Sophie Lewis

I think the phrase we’re looking for is social-democratic anticommunism. She was a metonym of the 20th century, which is currently dying. Sh

The bourgeoisie of the whole world, which looks complacently upon the wholesale massacre after the battle, is convulsed by horror at the desecration of brick and mortar! - Karl Marx, The Civil War in France

Jag vill inte längre höra folk säga att det rör sig om ”vanliga” skolprotester. Bilderna och filmerna från Frankrike visar på ren och skär ondska.

"to suppose that adults have more to teach these young rebels than the other way around would be a serious error, one that amounts in practice to a sterile paternalism"

Bismillah c'est les ténèbres! And the cherry on top is that the odious expat Thomas Chatterton Williams is very upset about the uprising and showing his entire ("centrist" ... fascist when scratched) ass in tweets about "a segment of the population who do not contribute anything"

every day i get on my knees and pray that everyone reads @reproutopia "Full Surrogacy Now" before just saying random shit like this, even if you still come away thinking surrogacy is wrong! at least you know there are other reasons to be pro outside of "rights"

In the whole argument for surrogacy, none of them are advocating for poor women to have surrogates. No one’s arguing “here’s how we can make surrogacy affordable for everyone to have children” so clearly it’s not a “having children is a human right” thing

Transcription of the conversation between @keirangoddard1 and me at the @LRBbookshop earlier this summer. Listen here: londonreviewbookshop.co.uk/p… And/or read here: patreon.com/reproutopia/post…
Keiran: And I think that there’s traces of that in all of the essays. And I know I’ve said this to you personally, but there’s something about the way you approach any topic, pretty much, it seems, where you assume in advance that there’s this kind of sort of promise of communism in it. You know, it almost doesn’t matter what you’re analyzing. It’s like: I can find it! You know? And I wondered how much of that is temperamental and how much of it is deliberately prefigurative? Or if it’s at all possible to unpick those two things. Sophie: You just reminded me of the TikTok where the woman says, “I love soup. You mean to tell me you hid a little bit of food in a bunch of water? I’ll find it!!” I guess that is kind of me, isn’t it: with the desire for communism-in-everything. It’s true, I can actually watch an episode of Love Island and be like, “Aha! the desire for communism.” But I’m right, though. Keiran: Yeah. No doubt.

begging people again to consider reading Sophie Lewis' essay to make connections on how so-called "punitive justice" that is gender/sex-based is the same carceral, genocidal, settler-colonial weapon utilized by Zionists against male Palestinian detainees. thekeymagazine.com/p/israel-…

“Everything Is Legitimate”: How Israel Uses Rape as a Tool of Genocide

The rape of Palestinian detainees is so commonplace that it’s no longer hidden. It’s filmed, joked about, and celebrated in parliament. This is no mistake; it’s core to Israel’s colonial project.

Disability is a site of class struggle because it exposes the lie of meritocracy. We show that survival isn’t earned—it’s organized, or it doesn’t happen at all.

For Sophie Lewis, Femininity Is Not the Enemy of Feminism

In “Femmephilia,” the author reclaims femininity, sexual pleasure, and adornment from patriarchal narratives in art and theorizes their liberatory powers.

If I had a mutual friend w Moira Donegan and I saw them calling her despicable names, I'd have a word with them, say it's not acceptable within the sisterhood. Donegan calls me a rape apologist, revenge pornographer, tradwife-with-extra-steps: are our mutual friends checking her?

I get how much it angers a feminist when someone seems to be woman-hating. I believe she thinks I not only hate on women but take pleasure in doing so. The opposite is the case, but I think the same of her, so I, as a feminist, get it. But we can refrain from ad feminam attacks!!

The thing I most often hear is that I am generous to the women I criticize. Regardless, I've devoted my life to fighting misogyny, cisness, gender qua accumulation startegy, transmisogynoir, whorephobia, the colonial-capitalist patriarchy of the family, and reproductive unfreedom
