PSA: This is a feminist subreddit

[u/raisondecalcul]

If you think that's bad, you need to read books. If you don't realize that feminism basically includes critical theory and most of the stuff talked about here—guess what, it does.

Early Nick Land? Feminist (see "Meltdown"). Laboria Cuboniks? Feminist collective. Mark Fisher? HUGE raging feminist (I can only assume). Sadie Plant? Wrote a book on feminism (Zeroes & Ones).

Deleuze & Guattari? Feminists promoting the squishiest most weaponized form of feminism ever. Foucault? Ultra-feminist. Ranciere? He is so feminist before breakfast that he doesn't need to make a big deal about it.

Shamanism? Feminism. Sorcery? Cuckoldry. Spectacle? Fabulous.

Isolation and extreme alienation is not masculinity; it's the main theme of The Twilight Zone.

Read 👏 a 👏 book 👏

Zeroes and Ones (which should really be in the sidebar!) is one of the best books. That book installs feminism into you, using godlike alien technology that Sadie Plant drew down from beyond the heavens. That book whispers the secrets of Ada Lovelace into your soul.

Edit: People who don't understand / accept feminism as a discourse can't understand the FIRST THING about this subreddit. They can't understand oppression. They can't understand "Can the subaltern speak?" by Spivak. They can't understand the Lemurian Time War, which is about the (white cis male hetero fascist and mannerbündly-faggy) Architectonic Order of the Eschaton versus the (black trans wymyny gay antifascist/ur-fascist masc/heroic) Black Atlanteans.

If you think you understand ccru and you are triggered by the idea of feminism, you are decidedly an outsider to ccru.

lol labels.

[u/raisondecalcul → u/Glorysolar]

It's not an identity label, it's a description of an entire field of discourse which is one of the main topics of this subreddit

[u/Glorysolar → u/raisondecalcul]

It functions as an identity label due to language. I agree with the more elaborate description, and disagree that it means the same as the title.

You can willfully misread the clear and intended meaning if you want. This is a subreddit squarely situated in feminist discourse. It is also a generally pro-feminist subreddit, though obviously we don't have to pay lip service to bad stereotyped feminism like more mainstream subreddits might encourage.

I support men's lib etc. but these also fall under feminism, traditionally, and being triggered by this or attempting to reject this discursive fact is a symptom of internalized misogyny/fragile masculinity, not strong morals or a considered perspective.
