You think those girls flipping their theocrats off in the schoolroom in Iran will leave their rage behind in that room when they go home? #MahsaAmini #IranRevolution2022
You think those girls who chased away an education director from their school grounds will pack up their audacity into their satchels after school is out? feministgiant.com/p/essay-when-g…
You think those schoolgirls chanting “Death to the dictator” do not go home and see the dictator there as well?

You think that girls around the world are not watching, knowing that they too can erupt? There is a reason that anger is one of The Seven Necessary Sins for Women and Girls.

Just add “and Nikki Haley” to the headline of my essay to explain this feministgiant.com/p/essay-dear-w…
As you watch the glory and power of the feminist revolution against theocrats in Iran, ask yourself where the fuck is your feminist revolution against theocrats in the U.S. feministgiant.com/p/essay-dear-w…
Roe v Wade was overturned as the biggest victory of a white Christian theocratic revolution. 

Will you burn things to the ground? Will you risk your lives as the very Iranian women you are cheering do? feministgiant.com/p/essay-women-…

Every time Ashli Babbitt trends,I will remind you:

Ashli Babbitt never imagined the Capitol Police would shoot her because the police rarely shoot white women, unless it’s a cop who shoots his wife at home. #AshliBabbitt #January6th feministgiant.com/p/white-women-…
Babbitt's mother apparently thinks #Jan6th “was an inspiring, uplifting patriotic day. It was a happy moment in her life. She just got to see Trump speak," and blames Capitol police and the FBI for the violence of that day.
Even when they join an insurrection, even as they pummel their way through the doors that held back the mob braying for violence from the upper echelons of the U.S. govt, white women are still remembered for the best versions of themselves.
