Learning feminist theory has been a curse because now all the progressive people I used to know just sound like annoying regressive assholes who don’t know what their talking about and just use politics to feel superior

You should learn some grammar next! Use “they’re” when abbreviating “they are”. “their” as you’ve written means soemthing possessive 👍

Naw see trying to tell a “man bad” feminist that that ideology is beyond regressive and boarding on fascist ideology doesn’t yield the best results I’ve learned

Oh yeah that’s so real. Any “progressive” person that’s a bioessentialist isn’t progressive at all 💀 like that’s the same rhetoric that we are supposed to be fighting

Honestly best thing to do is ask “do you believe that’s an inherent trait or a socialized one?” And then “so if you believe it’s inherent, how is your opinion any more valid than theirs? They also believe that someone’s worth is inherent to their sex and how they are born.” Or ask them to follow it to conclusions about how to “fix” the issue then (which ultimately leads to eugenics) and point out how fascists do the same things

I don’t think you do! Nobody who understands the differences between these words would use it incorrectly because of a word limit, once you know the differences it’ll bother you to use the wrong one.

Could be but I doubt it, if you know the difference there’s really no reason you’d use the wrong one. Misspelling something is a typo that you would do by accident, not using the wrong one

Or you clicked the quick fill option? Or spoke it into your phone or it auto corrected to the wrong thing?

I’m just being a bit of a snob bc the post seemed a bit snobbish itself, felt like I had to offer an edit. Not a super big deal tho!
