Fact is oghren loved branka in the way y’all can only put in fanfic & wattpad kidnapped by one direction stories. Oghren loved his paragon so much that he drove his entire house into the dust just for a CHANCE to fight for her. 2 entire years he spent banging on the doors of the assembly/palace demanding she not be abandoned. Of course it drove him to drinking and raging and drinking some more, he was taught that paragons are living GODS (pretty much) and was contending with the cruel, shattering reality that it’s been reduced to just face and politics. And there’s a lot to unpack about political corruption there but there is also a note to be made about how far into the abyss the darkspawn have pushed his proud people into over generations upon generations. He isn’t just mourning branka he is mourning honor and culture and religion. His OWN but also his PEOPLE’S. You’re not allowed to talk to him about it though uhh fart joke - here, hold that

#his trauma and his hurt and his victimization is constantly played as a joke by the narrative #like just say you dont have any critical thinking skills and go #some of yall did NOT pay attention in english class and it shows

I really deeply hate how the correct statement "using man-hating as a cover for transmisogyny is awful and you need to be able to recognize when that's being used as a dogwhistle" has somehow evolved into "misandry is real and that's why terfs are wrong" like no I don't think it is. Can we please retire Not All Men I can't do this

"subverting stereotypes by making a vampire/werewolf couple where the vampire is butch and the werewolf is femme!" did you still make the savage animal person the black one again

#many such cases

shadowheart: so what should we expect in vampire dens

astarion: vampires lol

shadowheart: awesome. you should be executed

#“we need more mean woman characters” you people cant even handle shadowheart #not to mention the basic differences in these two characters' storylines and growth #astarion does very little Growing out side of - at the very least - getting revenge against his abuser #he remains as all dnd vampires do stagnant in his mindset and at the end of it hes just as cruel and villainous as he is at the start #while shadowheart grows through her abuse and learns to enjoy kindness and warmth and nice things. the things she was forbidden from #the things she tried to convince HERSELF she wasnt a part of #so why single HER out as the cruel one between the two? oh wait #its misogyny.

i think there is something to be said about how radical acceptance/inclusion (esp in online spaces) has done so much to help (white, tme) people in those spaces learn to absolve themselves of any responsibility for how their peers are treated in those spaces

#kirk out #i just woke up but its like. #the 'its not hurting you so why do you care' mindset absolves you of the responsibility of learning who might actually be harmed and how #and so rather than learning how to be a good community member and ally to your peers youre centering your own feelings #FUCK. ITS INDIVIDUALISM AGAIN

Every single anti- bi/pan-lesbian post i make goes the same way.

I go "hey lesbians dont experience attraction to men actually."

And some fucknut goes "thats exclusionary!! Lesbians can fuck men!!"

And i go "so thats rape culture. Youre advocating for lesbian corrective rape"

And they go "you dont respect diverse genders/sexualities!!"

And i go "i dont care what people call themselves, feel free to make up new labels, but lesbianism does not include attraction to men"

And the circle back around to "youre being exclusionary!! And a terf!!"

And i go "excluding is not inherently morally bad. Including is not inherently morally good. Also, im only talking about not being attracted to men, why do you think i mean "trans women" when i say men"

Then they go "well theres a long history of lesbians fucking men! Dont deny history!"

And i go "those lesbians were bisexual women who fought hard to have their own label and identity. You are being biphobic by erasing their struggles. Additionally, something having history doesnt absolve it of any crime"

And sometimes theyll go "but men fucking lesbians is a kink! You cant kinkshame!"

And ill go "something being a kink does not automatically mean it can't be criticized. Are pedophilia and beastiality a kink? Are they something that should be allowed? Kinks are not some magical, untouchable item that can do no harm in any situation."

And they'll go back to "some people just have open or fluid genders/sexualities! You cant box us in!"

And i go "sure. And you cant tell me how open or closed my sexuality is. You cant redefine a sexuality for all lesbians just because you want to. A sexuality is not more morally correct when open, and not more morally condemnable when closed. Aren't you against political lesbianism? How is political fluidity any better? (fluidity just for the sake of being more Politically Correct)"

And they go "but youre being mean!! Youre being loud and mean and your tone is bad"

And i go "well im a sexual assault survivor advocating against sexual assault of lesbians. My tone is probably indicative of how strongly i feel about this issue. Plus, its fucked up to ask an oppressed class to try and get the boot off their neck as prettily and quietly as possible."

And then they devolve into calling me a transphobe-terf mean scary fat lesbian who doesn't care about other people. All over me saying "lesbians do not fuck men".
