I’m thinking of ALL women this women’s history month.
Palestinian women
Transgender women
Women of color
Disabled women
Queer women
Indigenous women
Jewish women
Asexual and aromantic women
EVERY woman deserves to be uplifted and celebrated this month and every month.

ultimately you have to remember that complaining about "4chan white trans women who are bigoted and so and so" is almost entirely pointless for any purpose aside from raising transmisogynistic sentiments in observers. this specter of an evil tranny is constantly looming despite the individuals being rare and often total shut ins, and people expect transfems to take this shit seriously and be constantly swearing off association with """bad people""". these people, when they do exist, by and large lack the power to actually do anything with their beliefs; obviously if they do it sucks but this idea that there are trans women ~getting away with it~ and that all transfem communities allow and hide this behavior is blatantly transmisogynistic in addition to often being completely imagined! its insane to act like you have to choose between resisting white supremacy and resisting transmisogyny, and yet, people wind up continually portraying it as this

Friendly reminder that if your feminism doesn’t include woc, queer women, trans women, disabled women, women of any religion, or sex workers then your “feminism” is shit <3

"why do you keep speaking up about oppression? Why can't you just be quiet about it if it annoys you so bad?"
Firstly, because of this extremely foolish question, I am going to assume you've never been oppressed before.
Secondly being oppressed pisses me off, and I hate talking about it because it is depressing that we must keep fighting for just basic things a person is required (rights, safety, happiness), but you know what happens when you don't speak on oppression? you keep being oppressed!
I've been harassed many a time because of my transness and queerness and guess what I did? I had to tell authority figures because if not, I knew it'd only get worse.
The only people I'm intolerant towards are the people who are intolerant to innocence because of gender, sexuality, race, or religion.

Gisèle Halimi
youtube
Lawyer and human rights activist Gisèle Halimi was born in 1927 in La Goulette, Tunisia. Halimi first rose to prominence in 1960 representing Djamila Boupacha, an Algerian activist who had been tortured and sexually assaulted Boupacha was eventually pardoned and released. In her work as a lawyer, Halimi fought for justice for torture victims in places like Tunisia and Algeria. She also played a crucial role in the decriminalization of abortion in France. In an influential case, Halimi defended a 16-year-old girl who had been charged for getting an abortion after a sexual assault. Not only did she secure an acquittal for her client, but the trial also helped change public opinion in France.
Gisèle Halimi died in 2020 at the age of 93.

So you call yourself a feminist and claim you support women's rights and gender equality for all. Okay. That's cool. But are you like, normal about trans folks? Especially trans women? Nonbinary folks even? What about intersex folks? Are you normal about them? Do you think bisexuality is a valid sexuality? What about other mspec labels? And do you support women that are bi/pan/omni/ply? Do you include women of color in your feminism? What about abuse survivors? Do you support all abuse survivors, regardless of gender? Are disabled women included? Muslim women? Jewish women? If you answered no to any of these, I have some *very* bad news for you...

Super quick recommendation:
The Calculating Stars by Mary Robinette Kowal.
I gobbled it up, cover to cover, in about 6 hours. It has everything: space, women being awesome, a lovely and supportive marriage, friendships, a historical setting with a twist, bits that make me cry, bits that make me cheer (internally), a moment where I said out loud "EAT SHIT" to the surprise of my spouse who was watching TV at the time, characters of color, Jewish characters, people learning to be compassionate to each other and support each other, solidarity, a great plot, characters who like math, and SPAAAAAAACE.
This book is GREAT and I'm glad I had time to read it. It has sequels too.
I attempt a more coherent recommendation soon but suffice to say YES go check out THE CALCULATING STARS by MARY ROBINETTE KOWAL

No one is talking about Clock (2023) and its egg symbolism
It would make Morel Orel so proud.

I think a lot of what's currently informing my fellow white people curdling like milk and shitting their pants when asked to interrogate their relationship with rap is the way many people (especially well-meaning white people) still can't help but think of racism as something that you get accused of rather than something that influences the entire world in pernicious ways.
like, I think a lot of people currently posting the most cringe takes about rap right now would very much agree that Racism Is Bad and probably even acknowledge that rap has been and is still widely maligned and devalues for racist reasons.
but that last step, acknowledging that your personal tastes and interests are also influenced by systemic racism, is where a LOT of people stumble. it's very easy to assume that because you consider yourself against racism, then your tastes and interests cannot possibly be at all informed by racist. if you're a white American, that's simply extremely unlikely to be true.
speaking from personal experience, I had to Work to decenter whiteness in my media tastes. when I was like 19 I listened to a podcast where a white Jewish man talked about keeping a spreadsheet of the books he read to make sure he was reading a roughly equal number of men and women, and I started doing the same thing to track how many authors of color I was reading. at the time I took pride in my belief that I was reading diversely, but when the year ended I was shocked to discover that people of color had written barely a quarter of the books I'd read. I had been giving myself way too much credit while still unintentionally prioritizing white authors, because white authors were the ones I knew best. so I started making an extremely conscious effort to seek out books by authors of color, both fiction and nonfiction, that sounded like my kind of shit.
music was extremely similar. I grew up a little white girl in a very white city in a very white state; nobody was offering me an education in rap or r&b or soul or hip hop. as an young adult there were definitely some Black artists I liked, like Janelle Monáe, but I had to take the initiative of seeking out more artists to find out who I fuck with. you're not going to like everybody, which is fine, but are you even giving anyone a chance? are you even looking?
racism has roots everywhere, bro. it's not enough to just acknowledge it, you have to actively get digging.
