2/4/2021 Update: In light of chucklefuck TERF shit with Giggle, I am once again demanding the rest of you liberals educate yourselves on trans issues with Trans Liberation as a starting point. And you better believe more literature on minority struggle is in the pipelines. We’re doing some reading this month, libs. Get ready.


AUDIOBOOKS HAVE BEEN RECORDED FOR ALL 8 CHAPTERS. YOU LITERALLY HAVE NO EXCUSE FOR LIBERALISM.

https://hexbear.net/post/48476

Follow that link and you’ll find a free download of the book in pdf and comrade @EugeneDebs’s epub, comrade @futomes’ audiobooks for all eight chapters, and notes and discussions from the book (and don’t you dare just read the fucking notes you god damn liberals, read the fucking book or listen to the audiobook).

I spent an entire weekend night scanning the whole damn book so y’all could educate yourselves on the fucking struggles we’ve been screaming about for the past six months and hardly any of you damn cissie libs participated. Had you participated you’d probably have a better understanding of the struggles we face and we probably wouldn’t be in this situation where trans people are heading for this damn hills because you’re all shit libs driving us away.

Fucking read it or listen to the audiobooks and I won’t ask again. It’s all free. The book is only 147 pages - that’s 7 pages per night for exactly 3 weeks. I wipe my fucking ass with 7 pages, that’s nothing. People put genuine effort into this to ensure you could educate yourselves and you have no reason not to outside of fucking liberalism.

It reads quick. Drop whatever the fuck you’re reading and read this. Now. :leslie-shining:

Edit: I’ll be throwing up a discussion thread at some point in the next week or so for you damn shitlibs to comment on with things you find meaningful so I’ll know if you actually gave a shit. I swear to God I better see y’all in the comments.

If you’re having trouble downloading, there are links in this comment by u/hexaflexagonbear that seem to work.

Honestly this should go in c/bestofhexbear for posterity

But more importantly read Feinberg

communism is a pathway to many abilities some transphobes consider to be… unnatural.

I remember we had a demographics survey a long time ago and were already pretty trans; I wonder what the numbers are now. I think there’s a lot of us who have changed a little sense then, lol

We had a load of reactionary patsoc types and their adjacents who used to use / raid the site and they were really, really upset about mandatory pronouns and being told not to be transphobic

Glad y’all picked the right side. Dongistan was genzedong still left on Reddit and they were way too comfortable with actual right wingers vibing in there under the guise of “left unity”. Too many V****ites who never got past the reactionary debate bro shit

What’s that meme with “you’re really going to die for trans people?” “Someone is…”

If you don’t stand up for trans rights, your pronouns are about to be were/was.
