Lol my moms having a Zoom meeting with her #ResistLib group and they're talking about "taking back" the Amerikkkan flag (hexbear.net)

Some were worried waving American flags would be "triggering to POCs", but then they agreed that they're gonna try and "take it back from Trump!"

Oh yeah she also introduced me to some 20-something in her group that seems to think she's in a YA novel. She's talking about forming an "underground" that has a goofy name like the "Sparrows" or something that uses its own special language she made up (its a simple word-key code any puzzle nerd could break). She has an alt-constitution written in a mole skin book that she showed me and I had to hold back my laughter at how badly it was written.

Sorry if this comes off as mean spirited but she just moved back in with me and this is her whole personality now. Normally id be like "well at least she's not a CHUD" but she's been really arrogant and self important about this like she fucking Vladimir Lenin over here when she's an upper middle class white lady who used to be a landlord.

derrick Jensen/dgr are terfs

Jeez that sucks. Thanks for the heads up. A lot of that information and terminology isn’t specific to them though. They’ve just assembled it here in a digestible way.

personally I like to spread around the Star wars analogy that they use but I always couch it by letting people know that their terfs.

not having heard of this person or org i found this essay denying this accusation from 7 years ago

https://dgrnewsservice.org/civilization/patriarchy/gender/neither-cis-nor-terf/

and thought well they don't seem that exclusionary as i read it until i got to

In Texas, where I live, the debate has focused on access to bathrooms and sex-segregated changing facilities, and the serious challenges raised by girls and women — concerns about privacy and how ambiguity in who has access increases the possibility of assault by non-transgender predators — have been dismissed as irrelevant.

i had to stop reading cuz i rolled my eyes so hard i hurt myself
