and it's WHITE WOMEN who are going to see this post and ignore it like they always do, that is, if they don't add unnecessary paragraphs of "well, actually" full of logical fallacies and outright misunderstandings of how the fucking world works...

it is so fucking exhausting and annoying how white women, including and maybe even especially in progressive and leftist spaces, continue acting like they are not themselves still beneficiaries of tremendous privilege simply because they endure sexist or misogynistic discrimination. being a woman does not excuse the fact that you are still white and you still reap the benefits of being white! you do not get to "but sexism!" your way out of being held accountable for saying and doing racist shit!

“Sexual assault rates and violence against Native American women did not just drop from the sky. They are a process of history.””

In Haudenosaunee cultures pre-Contact, rape was virtually unknown. If one was committed, all the men — including the toddler boys — would leave the perpetrator alone with the women in the village and come back after three days, after which time a condolence ceremony would be held and life would go on as usual. #iwantthatback

“there is no Indian Problem and there never was; but there always has been and still is a Settler Problem. It is the theft of our lands and the disconnection of our people, as collectivities, from the lands that sustain us that is the root of the problem in this society.”

Hi I need help.

Amazon fucked me over with a surprise prime charge that I didn't ask for. I'm disputing the charge but it's still going to leave me with only a few bucks unless I can get my bank to dispute the other charge amazon did that they won't let me dispute.

I've got bills coming up and absolutely no money to pay them, absolutely anything helps. I also have art commissions open, just DM for info on that.

never forget that WHITE WOMEN owned slaves, it was WHITE WOMEN who gatekept the womens' suffrage movement, WHITE WOMEN who not only participated in but also organized segregationist protests to harass and threaten children of color like ruby bridges, WHITE WOMEN who weaponize both their whiteness and their womanhood to threaten the safety and lives of black and brown people, WHITE WOMEN who had their own sect of the KKK, WHITE WOMEN who lied about black and brown men to get them murdered by lynch mobs, WHITE WOMEN who had significant influence in the eugenics movement, WHITE WOMEN who are just as complicit in settler-colonialist violence as white men are, WHITE WOMEN who receive preferential treatment to black and brown people of all genders seeking jobs and housing and education, and WHITE WOMEN who proclaim themselves to be the arbiters of feminism while forever ignoring the struggles of black and brown women and talk about white womanhood as if it is universal.

so forgive me but i am sick and tired of hearing about how WHITE WOMEN have it bad when WHITE WOMEN withhold their allyship until they can be certain that supporting the liberation of oppressed groups will benefit them in some way and are just as guilty of doing this as white men are.

it is so fucking exhausting and annoying how white women, including and maybe even especially in progressive and leftist spaces, continue acting like they are not themselves still beneficiaries of tremendous privilege simply because they endure sexist or misogynistic discrimination. being a woman does not excuse the fact that you are still white and you still reap the benefits of being white! you do not get to "but sexism!" your way out of being held accountable for saying and doing racist shit!
