I do not believe in lying or painting someone in the wrong light so I’ve got receipts. - here is what struck me as being quite #transphobic of @cryptodrftng 1/3
To me this is a clear choice to take issue with the term #TERF. I don’t care if you’re #Ukrainian or not, I don’t stand for garbage takes that fuel propagandists and serve as a #dogwhistle to #transphobes 3/3 speak the fuck up
same goes for any apologia for white supremacy, homophobia, or other garbage fascist behavior
TRANSLATION:
radical feminists throughout history explain that the theory of radical feminism doesnt include transwomen, this is literally the main difference of radical feminism, the definition of a woman through female gender socialization.

Kyiv Pride: bug, puk, terf, radfem: transphobes
TRANSLATION from @KyivPride response: Thanks for the note. The Abbreviation terf is not a slur as you see it, a slur is an insult based on an immutable trait (Sex, race, belonging to lgbtiq etc) The transfer views of trans exclusive radical feminists are not an immutable trait

with news and anti-fascist takes on geopolitical events. I talk a lot about Russian imperialism and Russian aggression over on instagram (@ peonypierogi) and have led campaigns to hold pro Russian and tankie individuals responsible for their harmful beliefs leading to them losing
jobs and public performances. Which sort of makes being called Russian almost laughable
I feel the need to write this long annoying t because of the accusations below from @tweet4anna I'd like to tell you about these claims and my experience with her group 3/?
A 🧵 Twitter toxicity is something else. Let’s be clear - you do not have to admire or even like #Zelenskyy to support #Ukraine or be #Ukrainian. That’s a ridiculous and illogical claim to make against @tweet4anna. However this litmus test of Ukrainian-ness is also ridiculous
Identity is complicated. I personally know many #Ukrainians who do not speak Ukrainian for a variety of life circumstances. My mother was born in western #Ukraine️ at the #slovak border. While she is a Ukrainian citizen, we dis not speak Ukrainian at home but
rather Slovak, rusyn or Polish as she belongs to an ethnic minority (#lemko) with complicated identity issues. There are different factors that contribute to ethnicity. Another thing though is
