Ooooobh you wanna commission me soooo baddd!

no, thank you!

the vibe being disconcertingly self-hating woman who believes her ostracism from societal acceptance is misogyny & beauty standards, not her unrepentantly rancid behavior that insists upon itself

it’s awesome how a guy can fully admit to having extremely demented sexual proclivities that made participating women feel super in danger and then five years later the hollywood reporter can churn out a fluff piece about how bad we should feel that he got fired from movies

Zionism is a death cult

No matter what white people will always act like they’re being gassed and skinned alive whenever you ask them to talk like a white person

already the best movie of 2027

the sex and the city pilot is so damn classy… carrie was chill af

at a revolving sushi place and theres a table that keeps taking everything before it gets to ours

WHITE People need to start educating themselves about what they say or how they use some words. The problem is not that you use slay or serve, the problem is that you're bastardizing AVEE

@grasschord She draws everyone as dogs like that’s her whole brand :-) you’d see that if you weren’t just trying to cherry pick stuff for your bad faith argument.

Extremely white lesbian who draws black people as dogs and appropriates “black words” mad that other white gays also use “black words”

@LinguistReborn @illumidretour If you are refusing to understand how this affects lesbians black people or women in general then there really isn’t any point in continuing the conversation 👍 I see your points made and I respect them have a nice day.

@idiotwater @illumidretour This comic clearly isn’t about lesbian issues, it’s yet another lesbian laundering homophobia towards gay men, who are seen as the acceptable punching bags of the gay community in progressive spaces.

@idiotwater @illumidretour That’s true, as a class gay men are much less misogynistic than women. Also, that word is often used in a non-negative way by gay men also.

@LinguistReborn @illumidretour Ok 👍

@idiotwater @illumidretour Also to be clear when I say that I don’t use that specific kind of grammar I mean I don’t think any nonblack person should and I have no issue with people calling it out, but lumping all usage of AAVE terms together into a singular category of “appropriation” is wild imo

White gays vs understanding that critique doesn’t equal a hate crime …

@LinguistReborn @illumidretour Congratulations for avoiding it, other people have different experiences than you. That’s the purpose of being a human being. As a woman of color I have experienced this exact type of person (I’m a Hispanic woman so not entirely the same). The comic resonated with me that’s all.

@idiotwater @illumidretour It’s a type of person I have basically never encountered in real life, and I’ve spent a lot of time with gay men.

@LinguistReborn @illumidretour Why would you listen more to a black gay man in a comic centered around lesbian issues made by a lesbian who is very involved in the community?

@idiotwater @illumidretour I think if a Black person, especially a Black gay man, had made this comic, I would give them the benefit of the doubt that that was their goal. I do not give that benefit of the doubt to a white woman who drew her Black character reading “the color purple”

@LinguistReborn @illumidretour U are a single person in the grand scheme of things. Like you can speak for yourself which is great I’m glad u avoid it. The comic is touching on a very specific issue + specific type of person that is using the language a certain way. If that’s not you then I’m not talking abt u

@idiotwater @illumidretour I avoid appropriating grammatical structures form AAVE (such as habitual be), but a lot of AAVE terms are simply a part of the general English lexicon. It’s unserious to pretend say “chopped” or “it’s giving x” is appropriative in the same way that adopting a fake blaccent is.

@LinguistReborn @illumidretour I’m trying to understand + I think the issue is a lot more nuanced than a single comic strip, I’m also noticing a lack of accountability and a lot of speaking over black people and women who have spoken about these things. (I’m not a terf btw I’m the furthest thing)

@idiotwater @illumidretour I think you’re refusing to listen to gay men pointing out the homophobia in this comic and it demonstrates a lack of concern.

@LinguistReborn @illumidretour A gay man is a very different thing than a woman. I don’t even like women using it very much but I’m a lot more understanding of it especially if not used in a negative way. I especially don’t think men should be using it.

@idiotwater @illumidretour If you believe women can use the word “bitch” then there is no argument for gay men not being allowed to that doesn’t rely on gender essentialist TERF nonsense. If you believe nobody should say it then fine, but calling out exclusively gay men for it, is homophobic.

@LinguistReborn @illumidretour I really think you’re misinformed on that subject. I don’t think this conversation is leading anywhere productive. ✌️ and 💛 have a good day

@idiotwater @illumidretour Gay men using the word “bitch” is not inherently misogynistic, because a) gay men themselves are often called “bitchy” b) gay men do not, as a class, have power under patriarchy. Women have more ability as a class to harm gay men than gay men have the ability to harm women.

@LinguistReborn @illumidretour Way they speak, calling out that most of their language is directly misused and appropriated AAVE specifically directed towards women. It’s a common enough issue where multiple people have brought it up but people wanna use the word homophobia when its just taking accountability

@idiotwater @illumidretour Well firstly, the post isn’t calling out misogyny at all. Secondly, mocking the way gay men speak and drawing them as homophobic caricatures with limp wrists holding ice coffees and wearing crop tops is obviously insulting.
