Look, I am NOT saying we should forcibly castrate people, but…
The whole post is wild, like it unironically argues that men invented patriarchy because they didn’t want to be treated like lambs in farms lmao. Also the fucking scary focus on “productivity”… And all the weird evo psych and calls for eugenics and “weeding out low quality men” in the comments… What is that place exactly?
A radfem talking about women being more productive than men is comparable to Marxists talking about workers being more productive than capitalists. The difference is they believe class hierarchy (the most recent incarnation being capitalism) stems from patriarchy instead of patriarchy stemming from class hierarchy, as Engels argued. They want to do to men (and often transwomen) what we would like to see done to capitalists.
That subreddit is wild cause on the one hand its a bunch of women sharing tips on how to sniff out abusive men and spot red flags in relationships which is good, but then on the other hand its this shit and like wtf.
Idk, they’re also super terfy and classist. When I visited I thought it was chill at first but transphobic comments got massively upvote, even using r/gendercritical terminology.
I feel like there’s probably places that have the good advice you might find there without the really toxic elements.
Yeah i’ve definitely noticed the transphobic undercurrents as well. I’ve seen some people call it TRP for women but i don’t think that’s 100% accurate, definitely still a toxic place tho.
What else can you expect when they refer to men as “scrotes”? In their mind ‘person with dick and balls’ = ‘man’. So what conclusion could they draw if a “scrote” enters their “female” only space?
It seems to me that gender essentialist thinking is usually going to lead to transphobia.
