Sex traffickers will target cars that look feminine

also im growing to hate the phrase ''hold accountable'' in discourse because its always so.... empty? like you see people saying ''sure this person apologized, but we need to hold them accountable!'' like cool. what does that mean. how can you get any more accountable than a public apology. do you want them to apologize... again? more? get a tattoo explaining their crimes so everyone they meet is informed? do you want accountability or are you repeating buzzwords because you cant find a nice way to say you just want them to disappear.

that post about how its impossible to satirize masculinity without thousands of men earnestly idenitifying with it isn't wrong but ive also seen enough women cheer on the most rancid shit as long as its got a veneer of femininity to it so idk i think it might just be a human thing

equality win: men and women both bad at media comprehension !!

For every Fight Club there's a Gone Girl

For every American Psycho there's a Mean Girl

Anyway I saw some callout post on twitter against an artist for drawing amputee porn but the artist is themself an amputee so then people were saying they got their leg cut off as part of their fetishization and people seriously think that’s more likely than an amputee being like “I’ll draw people that are like me” like, yeah ok I’m an Elon accelerationist when it comes to twitter

while its a "what the fuck" moment as it is already. even if they got their leg off as part of their fetish thats still like. an amputee. their amputee card is not revoked. what is the thought process in this part im legitimately lost

This post I was showed some time ago:

(no, it's not a theme, I just colored it so you can see where the screenshot starts and ends)

"appropriating an oppressed class" but you end up fat? what? or do people have scan rays and see that it's a paraphilia thing and go "oh so you're not REALLY fat let's go oppress some fat people"???????? "intentionally making yourself fat and taking gratification in our oppression" im sorry but like. in public you cant tell. and behind closed doors its none of your business. like it literally doesnt involve you. huh.

Also I would like to remind that the argument of a "person satisfying their fetish by altering their body" has also been used repeatedly in transphobic rhethoric, and very recent events have shown the fallout of policing and moralizing a person's rights over their own body (see abortion and transition ban laws).

As Spectre said if someone desires to alter their own body out of their own (uninfluenced) will that's their own consequences to bear and certainly not your business.

So, even in the rare incidence the proposed argument by the twitter riot was true (which trust me, i find it hard to believe this is the case) whether you are happy with it or not that person still is an amputee. They cannot grow that missing limb back just because for them it's a fetish or something. They would still need assistance for basic tasks. The argument has little to no sense other than try to appeal to a sense of disgust in others and shame the artist.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, when someone is “called out” over “fetishization” it’s a good idea to always ask yourself “why is this wrong then?” because that is one of the worst used words on social media. Like

Not only is this not a thing, but if it were to happen and someone actually engages in such extreme self-mutilation that they amputee an entire fucking limb on their own, this is someone that should be treated with compassion. That is someone that has something going on in their head. That is not an “oppressor”.

Pretty on the inside
