Can we take a moment to acknowledge how astonishingly sexist and misogynistic this comment is? (Since you’ve already covered the transphobia angle here.)
She’s telling a woman that if she isn’t meeting her personal standards of beauty then she needs to cover up and dress in a way that suits her preference. She’s literally body-shaming a woman and policing her self expression.
I would put money on Wu absolutely castigating a man who was in her presence if he said something like “Disgusting! Cover yourself up and show some decency. Women like you have no right to dress that way in public!!” to a woman and yet here she is doing this very thing to a trans woman.
Imagine having the audacity to complain about sexism and transphobia when you’re clearly a very willing proponent of it, simply because you see trans women as being lesser than other women. (Opportunistic Feminists Don’t Abandon Your Principles When Encountering a Trans Woman Challenge [impossible])
There’s a special place in the gulag for people like Brianna Wu.
if we’ve got the transphobia and misogyny stuff covered now, can we take another step back to acknowledge how baffling it is to think that bennie is “not super hot” in the first place
I have data showing that a significant portion of it was Russia trying to divide us
“I have here in my hand a list of 205 [State Department employees] that were known to the Secretary of State as being members of the Communist Party and who nevertheless are still working and shaping the policy of the State Department.”
All of liberal politics is projection.
This is aneurism bingo
Lib: “bernie bros are transphobic”
Same lib: “if you’re not super hot, maybe dress normally and don’t present yourself as a transvestite”
