I wish I could speak to another trans femme without them bringing up and gushing over fucking contrapoints, philosophy tube or some other LIB breadtuber.

That instance feels like it's full of those types who talk down to you about their paper thin understanding of politics and social justice because "CONTRAPOINTS SAID SO!" or fucking Philosophy Tube ergghhhhhhh doomjak and if you have a take left of starmer they scream authoritarian.

Gunna go in for a hard read now on blahaj.zone so bare with me.

BEING A MINORITY DOESN'T MAKE YOU A DECENT PERSON OR MAKE YOU MAGICALLY UNDERSTAND SOCIAL JUSTICE. LOG OFF AND READ A BOOK!

I don't hate philosophy tube etc to be clear, I just find their videos to be self indulgent slop and her fan base to consistently be insufferable privileged and chauvinistic liberal white trans femmes that usually speak for others (themselves, they ignore anyone else trans) and are kinda problematic vs recognising there's a thousands more of us who don't earn dollar doing software dev and that our needs and material conditions are just as important as their own.

I always thought Philosophy Tube was just hiding her power level for a lib audience.

She's so based and down to earth anon!!! You're just salty because you aren't rich!!

literally acts like a fucking MP

Fr tho I think she de-fangs a lot of revolutionary potential in her fanbase by giving them a comfy lib adjacent take for them to cling to. I get it, I just don't like it.
