10 Things Every Intersectional Feminist Should Ask On a First Date
Everyday Feminism ^ | December 8, 2017 | Lara Witt

Posted on 12/11/2017 4:59:55 AM PST by C19fan

As a queer femme of color, I keep close relationships with people who go beyond allyship; they’re true accomplices in the fight against white supremacy, queerphobia, and misogyny. If you’re not going to support marginalized folks, then we can’t be friends, let alone date. The personal is political.

Beyond the lovely cushioning, happiness and support that we receive from our platonic relationships (which are, in all honesty, soul-feeding and essential), feminists also date! But there are questions we have to ask before we get close to someone.

Wow. A checklist of all of the current beliefs we’re supposed to have, according to the Left.

I wonder if this poor thing has any original thoughts of her own.

If you wasted brain cells actually reading this drivel, it sounds like the pretentious ravings of an over-articulate junkie. You know, the kinds of ramblings your stoner buddy used to spout when he was toasted, or the "inspired" scribblings of a meth bender.

There's no marxist cliche she/it doesn't employ. But that's coming from a cis-normative hetbot patriarchal white supremacist un-disabled Christian male.

Today’s young lefties don’t read Alinsky anymore.

The revolution is supposed to be fun!

I was inspired to actually look up the definition of bigotry;

Merrimack-Webster

Definition of bigot

: a person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially : one who regards or treats the members of a group (such as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance

—sounds like the modern feminist in the article, or any liberal for that matter—

lol - this is where modern “education” exposes how you’re such an ignorant, intolerant, and bigoted individual. Only when you’ve become “educated” can you understand such words, they’re for the “enlightened” don’t you know?

/s

Remember, she paid for being indoctrinated into this garbage - so it must be true!!

That's not satire, John. That's real. They're really that stupid; their power-dive into the abyss of stupidity is accelerating. If you want to write satire, you've GOT to get ahead of them.

Just a shot in the dark...but I’m guessing the writer looks nothing like the hottie pictured in the article.

You think that's hot?!

Laz, would you hit that?

I don't know why, but her rambling post made me think of the Monty Python Communist Quiz Game.

Who won the English Football Cup in 1949?

Urban Dictionary has these harridans pegged:

Intersectional Feminism

Feminism as practised by self-righteous people who will take any excuse to be rude, demeaning, and even downright racist to other people in public. The intersectional feminist believes that just being pro-women's rights isn't enough and that that if you don't also bitch about racism and exclusion of the disabled, LGBT people, religious discrimination, etc, etc, as a part of every conversation, then you're just part of the problem.

The Intersectional Feminist will use their philosophy to enable poor behaviour and paint themselves the victim of every interaction they have with people who don't tow their party line. When called on their behaviour and asked to try and get their point across without resorting to hostility, the IF will invariably cry racism against the "oppressor" who asked them to just be polite.

Essentially, these people represent the extreme end of a far, far Left political philosophy, where good ideas of equality and cooperation between all people are twisted into a constant reason to rage at other well-meaning people in an all-or-nothing quest for power where you're either part of their solution, or you're an object of contempt.

Feminist: We really need to come together and fight for equal pay for equal work.

Intersectional Feminist: What the hell do you even know about that? Shut your white, cracker-ass, privileged, cis-gendered mouth up, get to the back of the room, and listen quietly to what my variously coloured sisters and I say you're allowed to do in order to support our goals. Otherwise, get your honky ass the fuck out!

Feminist: Wow, that's a pretty divisive statement you just made. I was just trying to say...

Intersectional Feminist: You don't know shit about divisive. You need to zip your skinny vanilla lips and understand my Intersectional Feminism. You have not lived my experience, being oppressed by men and Whitey and all the other institutionalized power structures built to keep me down. Fuck you, Wonder-Bread!

Feminist: Respectfully, I think I've got a little bit of perspective, being a transgendered woman and all.

Intersectional Feminist: Well shit, why didn't you say that in the first place? Stay up front and participate, my strong sister!

Ask her the difference between an ally and a comrade then watch the gears spin.

She believes in myths like Muslim feminism and peaceful communist revolution.

Imagine taking THAT home to mama.
