7 years and 25 days since we got hired; 8 months and 9 days since we quit, and justice has finally begun to be served.
"sniping at your former coworkers isn't fighting fascism", say the very same fucking clods that saw us as "just being interested in internet fights" and "just posting walls of text", refusing to consider that maybe they were part of the fucking problem
I don't know the whole story here, but, of course calling our your former co-workers can be fighting fascism, if your former co-workers are people who enable fascism. Like, how do those clods think we're supposed to fight fascism unless we begin at home, with the people within our sphere of influence?
they think we're supposed to fight fascism by ignoring it and not being mean to the fascists :)
and we could tell you some stories, you would even believe them.
It’s like some white liberals I used to know in early 2016 who liked to talk about how the most effective way to fight Nazis was to laugh at them.
white cis woman who quoted The Big Lebowski at us to claim Dorsey's fascism was "just our opinion" thought a cool thing to do would be to demand moderation against us because we were "a bully" at twitter for "posting walls of text"
and at one point we got sarcastic with her, saying "as we all know, a core tenet of antifascist feminism is the notion that marginalized groups gain rights by being nicer to their oppressors" and the point went right over her head
Weird how some people base their entire political ideology on their denial, isn’t it?
"the tranny is bullying me, the true victim, by posting walls of text about how the company is enabling fascism, MODS"
i seriously just fuckin cant. she also tried to be like "i asked my queer friends if i was being transphobic" and like that's cute have you tried asking us?
or the guy, who, when we were like "hot take: who cares about your opinion on sexism", was like "my hot take is that you're kind of an asshole"
have you tried... not being a transphobe? it's astounding how quickly we stop being an asshole when you stop being a transphobe
Weird how she only makes friends with lesbian and gay people (probably not queer people) who either align with her liberalism-caving-to-fascism views, or don't trust her enough to tell her what they really think!
what was weird to us is that if she weren't a terf she'd be trans-passing
