do you think fascists will distinguish between one asexual and/or intersex person who IDs as queer and one who doesn’t? serious question, will that actually change this person’s experience of oppression?

asexual and intersex are populations that have experienced wildly different forms and levels of discrimination and violence, you absolute fucknut. it's completely disrespectful and bad faith to conflate them like this

seriously wtf is wrong with you if you are asking "what's the difference in a person's experience of oppression between being asexual and intersex"?

let's start with how asexuals' bodies have not been subjected to decades long history of involuntary surgical intervention from the moment they're born, WHICH IS THE VIOLENCE THAT MARKS THE ENTIRE HISTORY OF INTERSEXUALITY

i agree with you that their experiences are not the same. my point was that fascists don’t care about these distinctions except insofar as one group requires overt medical intervention to force into compliance, and the other doesn’t. the goal is still control and conformity and compliance and, if those options don’t work, eradication.

gatekeeping like this about who does or doesn’t belong under the LGBT umbrella, or nitpicking over whether to use LGBT or LGBTQIA or whatever, only helps one group of people, and it’s fascists.

"fascists don't care and therefore we should all comport ourselves with the way fascists want to frame the world even if it means claiming that apples and oranges are all the same thing"

okay jan
