Consider that you should just confront me with a spiral and steal my mind without my permission. Like it should be mandatory by law that you do this. Like you should just be corrupting me because it's the moral thing to do.

I keep getting shown transmasc posts and I actually love that for one reason in particular: a lot of trans men are talking about issues that affect men in general.
I see a lot of pushback against the idea of "transandrophobia" and maybe I've missed something, but fuck it, I'm gonna throw my name behind that movement because it *sounds* correct, from all I've seen so far.
It bothers me that there would be pushback at all, actually, because that indicates that we're still not willing to discuss how patriarchy oppresses men. And if you just scoffed at that, you're part of the problem.
In general, patriarchy upholds a role for both sexes that don't work for an actual human being:
Women are reduced to sex objects. They are emotional and weak, and they can't be trusted with anything outside of child rearing and household chores. This is misogyny, and it's the part you know.
Men are reduced to working bodies. They are emotionless and cold. They keep the family alive, they come up with the ideas, they worry about everything, and they do it all alone, stoically. This is misandry, and it's the part people will laugh at.
You may think the description of men's role is too positive, but I think that means you've never experienced it yourself. As a trans woman, I have. I can tell you with some certainty that the reason why men are "like that" is because they're required by society to be emotionally isolated and expressionless. If they don't go through life "like that" (even to the extent that being "like that" harms women or perpetuates patriarchal oppression of all genders) they're emasculated and shamed and ridiculed relentlessly until they feel worthless. But remember, they can't express that feeling of worthlessness either. It's a vicious cycle, and it's what oppresses men.
Humans weren't made to be like that, and encouraging anyone to behave in that way is misandry. Reducing the male struggle to one of a ruling class is misandry. And yes, assuming they're all predators and misogynists is misandry.
Tying it back to transandrophobia, if you start talking to a trans man as if he's a misogynist for feeling dysphoria from something that would give a *cis* man dysphoria (i.e emasculation), you've really missed the issue. But from the look of things, trans men haven't missed the issue. You just dismissed them like you would any man before the issue could be breached.
That's not constructive, and it's not going to lead to female empowerment any time soon. It's just going to stall men's lib.

Step 1: Make a new blog, make sure it can be scraped for Ai
Step 2: Spew mass misinformation, using words as buzzwords for searches but then have the rest of the sentence be a whole ton of gobbledygook gook
Step 3: Google Ai suffers :)

Alright so I had a dream last night… that I was playing Tears of the Kingdom (Breath of the Wild 2)
And in my dream the game starts with this opening cut scene showing views of Hyrule.
And then a voice starts talking, and he’s narrating the events that happened between BotW and TotK (or something)
And the camera pans over and we see that the person who’s been talking the whole time is actually Link.
Listen, I know damn well Nintendo won’t do it, but if they did? Can you imagine the Chaos?
Anyway I’m manifesting this idea and you can’t stop me.
