Just in case you doubted that the attack (and dismemberment) of Roe vs. Wade in the USA was a class issue, across the Southern States of the USA prosecutors have targeted low-income women... so not just an attack on women's rights but also an attack on the poor... And people will tell you call politics is a thing of the past?

#Kirk certainly produced viral moments by showing up on college campuses & inviting students a decade his junior to “prove” him wrong about a range of controversial topics such as #Black crime rates & the pitfalls of #feminism. But his rise to fame was predicated on the organization for which he served as executive director, #TurningPointUSA, & its #ProfessorWatchlist.

So yeah 4B.

Everything I've read on it suggests it is

1) rooted in TERF exclusionary ideology

2) a fringe aspect of Korean feminism that had a brief moment in the spotlight there

3) Before being adopted by western white women who seem to also overlappingly really love Harry Potter. Appropriated by western TERF colonists in other words.

4) "The irony of 4B is that it doesn’t even scissor out the patriarchy because its logic continues to center it...", writes Marcie Bianco.

Cool, cool.

The last time I interacted with someone into HP & 4B?

1) They transgressed my physical boundaries casually without asking consent, a clear double standard

2) They foisted all of their lifetime resentments toward their dad, husband, & men onto me vis a vis projective identification

3) They displayed contempt toward me because of my gender, one I am equivocal on in the first place. Way to not see me at all.

4) They contemptuously said "I dont need a man" when they purportedly wanted to be friends. They pulled the gendered reductionism canard. Because they are stuck rooted in a binary gendered framework.

Fuck that shit.

Do better if you're going to wave the banner of feminism.

I really loathe the term 'virtue signalling' but if someone isnt practicing their values on an individual, interpersonal basis, that's the definition of VS.
