anti-radfems fighting the radfems that say women are inherently feminine and men are naturally abusive towards women (they don't exist they're fighting the air)
I rly hate the Satanic Panic & the moral panic surrounding violence in video games in the 90s, coz it's now impossible to talk about the social implications of violent video games in a realistic sense.
No, violence in video games does not create serial killers in the way most people imagine it would.
However, it's very important to notice how after 9/11, a lot of violent video games pivoted their content from silly gratuitous cartoon gore to more realistic military shooters set in the Levant from a US American lens. It's also important to notice the connection of these games & their toxic online multi-player voice chats to Gamer Gate in 2014.
It's obviously not as black & white as it was presented in the 80s & 90s, I dont think everyone who played early Call of Duty games is a white supremacist who wants to join the military to kill people in the middle east, but I think it's dangerous to pretend like video games or any media can't have an impact on the way people think about violence.
I think what makes all the difference here is how that violence is portrayed, what the message behind it is, what the motives are behind the people who crafted that message, who the victims of that violence are, how they are portrayed & the greater cultural context that surrounds it.
Not by any means a fan of her but Aella has a substack post named “Are trans women actually as scary as cis men?” which shows that TIMs are more likely to answer yes to a question in one of her widespread surveys regarding whether they have knowingly had a sexual experience with someone who didn’t want it, with “non-binary” men having the highest likelihood of all. The author somehow concluded that this still doesn’t show women should have our own spaces, because women are apparently “neurotic and paranoid”.

Getting very sick of trans-identified men making creepy, voyeuristic media about the violence and suffering that women and girls experience at the hands of men.
the jarring contrast between radblr having posts detailing white men drugging and raping a woman in her 70s, a white man creeping on his own daughters, a white man strangling his wife and then pureeing her in a blender, white men joking about a woman being puréed in a blender, a white man keeping a woman captive for years and torturing and sexually violating her, a white man getting a slap on the wrist for the possession of child porn, and then posts arguing that white men are more humane and less misogynistic/violent to women indicates severe cognitive dissonance.
coquette tumblr girls love to compare themswlves to prey animals. uhm no. deer will literally shred you with their kicking hooves and they are beautiful and strong. you are something else that rolls over and dies.
Meanwhile a society without women: no men

A lot of harm could have been avoided if trans activists didn't bully medical and psychological professionals out of doing their job. "Everyone who says they're trans, is trans and should be believed." Well, no. They could be socially influenced They could have emotional problems and trauma They could have body image issues They could be autistic They could be facing adolescent fears and pressures re sex and gender They could have a sexual fetish They could have a pushy parent and be a victim of munchausen by proxy They could need anti-psychotic drugs and mood stablizers They could have a neurological problem that has altered their perception. They could be depressed, BPD, anxious, avoidant, narcissistic Genuinely why did activists just say words they pulled out of their ass and doctors responded with "well, ok" with no further research. That was insane.
