    Accusations of anti-semitism mean nothing now, monsters. Never underestimate zionists, with this strategy they can put right wing anti-jews and leftists inside the same bag. We’ve been hearing turds saying there is a “problem of antisemitism on the left” (No, there isn’t). The left is the real enemy of western powers. Not some weirdo like Nick Fuentes, a guy only previously know by 1% of terminally online people who is magically turned into a politically relevant figure in just a few weeks. Is Fuentes being heavily prosecuted for his anti-judaism? No, meanwhile we have left wing comrades in jail and harassed by lawsuits, denied free speech for denouncing a genocide.

    And as things get worse, non-zionist jews are having a harder time too. They need to organize fast, both real and false-flag anti-jew attacks will be on the rise around the world as it benefits zionism, see what’s happening in Australia. Israel always used terrorist attacks to seed fear amongst jews around the world.

    Because they constantly need to reaffirm their masculine role in society. They do this to make sure they are Very Male, totally not gay when they are among other males but they also behave like this when they are alone to soothe their insecurities. One way of doing this is to “remind” women of their place by degradation, to them masculinity is being always on top and active. It’s about making women uncomfortable on purpose, the catcalling phrases ranges from stupid to straight out obscene just for the sake of reaffirming the power structure of heteronormativity. A male always gives orders, a male always penetrates and never gets penetrated (consider sex positions, the penetrated is usually below and “passive”, both literally and metaphorically). In some cultures even performing cunnilingus to a woman was/is considered “effeminate” and being accused of performing it on ancient Rome was the today’s equivalent of being insulted with common pejorative words questioning the masculinity of the person performing such act.

    EDIT: use of derogatory language.

    Both arrangements are vile, but capitalism adds all these layers of obfuscation that hide what’s really going on and feels all the more insidious.

    Absolutely. Sometimes in the heat of the conversation I have a hard time explaining to other people why wage labour is just another form of slavery, they look at me like a weirdo and say “But we are free to choose, nobody’s making us do anything!” among other nonsensical reasoning for which my patience is lacking.

    If anyone has some good strategies to deal with this situation I’d gladly welcome them.

    CW: SA story

    spoiler

    Some of the experiences told here resonate too much with mine, in my case the perpetrator was male and a close friend of mine, we were both adults. I spent years silent because I didn’t know how to explain how I was removed by another adult male and “did nothing against it” (after being unconscious I woke up and he was there, doing it). I cut contact with him. After more than 5 years I finally broke the silence and told what had happened to some of the friends we had in common, I thought it was the least I could do, this person is dangerous to other people. My “friends” acted all worried about it but the next day they ghosted me.

    The physical damage was nothing in comparison with the distrust I developed. They must have seen me as a burden so they abandoned me. My priority was alerting them, I wasn’t asking for retribution or anything of the sort. Never talked about my abuser in hateful terms. For some reason I didn’t feel hate towards him, only disgust and disappointment.

    Men have a lot of trouble conceiving their kind as adult victims of SA. Not only when the victim is another person, it was hard for me to come into terms with what had happened too at first. The idea that “IT COULD NEVER HAPPEN TO ME” is in our subconscious and I get it, it’s the alpha male bullshit from the patriarchal society we get fed from birth. But my friends were all leftists so I thought they would act differently. Maybe I was asking too much.

    Although the event itself hurts less now it changed me, I don’t trust people so easily and my boundaries are way more stricter than before. To this day I can’t call anybody a friend, I don’t perceive basic empathy from other people and in every social interaction I feel like I’m about to get fucked(figuratively), the paranoia never goes away.
