Okay, I’ve rewritten this a few times now and idk what to focus on, so I’ll say that I have also looked at what they write in those places and it brings me such visceral fear and anger that I feel sick to my stomach.
Sure, some conservatives are reasonable normal humans, but that side of politics has been taken over by RW extremists, incels, and misogynists advocating for the legalisation of child marriage (let’s be honest, just little girls married to old men), the forced slavery of millions of women and AFABs, and the forced rape and impregnation of said women and AFABs. They believe they have the right to our bodies just because they are the “stronger sex”, whatever the fuck that means. They want to create Gilead in real life.
I’m tired of our stories being dismissed, I’m tired of the fight against sexism and misogyny that feels endless.
I don’t want kids and I won’t have them for many, many reasons, one of which is what kind of world is this for them? If I had a girl I’d be so utterly scared that I know I would end up like my mum was to me… And that’s no way to grow up, AND it didn’t protect me at all - just exacerbated my naivety. She may as well have put a neon yellow sign on my head that said VICTIM
Their utter disregard for the humanity of more than half the human race (women, bipocs, marginalised groups) scares me so much that I fear there is no hope for this world. It’s all crumbling apart, busting at its seams, that I feel so hopeless. Abusers want what they want, and if they all start working together… Idk, it’s scary to me.
