rainbowgod666 : queen-mihai : roycohn : roycohn : we need to have a conversation about how the “everyone is 12” theory of politics now doesn’t only apply to conservative men who want to kick the bad guys’ asses and then go home and eat a steak their bangmommy made just for them (NO VEGGIES!!!) but also to adult women who are literally afraid of other people having sex and being sexy. it’s like there’s been this massive regression among women in their 20s where we’ve gotten rid of feminism and replaced it with a new form of purity politics that requires never saying anything bad about another women unless you find a new and creative way to call her a whore. the misuse of “she caters to the male gaze” as a new form of enlightened slut shaming, labeling any woman who wears a short skirt or has sex with a man as “not a girls’ girl” and “a pick me,” the intense overreaction to celebrity affairs or even just shit like the summer house mess where a woman is now dating another woman’s ex even though there was no overlap and the “relationship” was just kind of a situationship that fizzled but now these little girls are online demanding both people involved in the new relationship lose their jobs and not get any brand deals, the panic over mildly sexual content in literally any capacity like ads or an instagram post in a crop top, the compulsion to link everything back to the epstein files, the monthly meltdown over sex scenes on tv and in movies. everyone is 12 and AFRAID of sabrina carpenter. a helpful guide And like.. there was so much hope for gen z. Literally they were the ones coming up about to light the fucking world on fire to get rid of dictators. They were calling millennials pussies for not ripping everything apart and telling us they needed to be the ones to do it. I REMEMBER seeing this shit ON TUMBLR when I first started this blog, that millenials and gen z were like working together to get rid of the disgusting power structures the world had built AND THEN They got SUCKED INTO THE RIGHT WING FUCKING GRIFT It was done! It was over! Human rights was on the verge of fucking WINNING because there was this Whole generation Of people who ALL AGREED that billionaires and the idiots in charge were the fucking problem, and then… it’s like they got out of puberty and somebody dropped SO FUCKING MANY of them into a blender with right wing shit and reagonist sludge and fucking hatred for women and SHREDDED the fucking hope we were making for the future! WE WERE GONNA DO THIS SHIT TOGETHER God fucking dammit As a gen z MY FUCKING CHILDHOOD GOT SHOT LIKE BAMBI’S MOTHER AND THE HUMTERS LAUGHED AT MY CRIES FOR JUSTICE. This is the goddamn truth
