considering to write a zine about the german feminist commandment that "one may never question another persons feelings".
The reason being: I have witnessed the use of phrases such as "i feel unsafe because of this person" or "i am uncomfortable with this person", used as a way to hide bigotry while getting what they want. This has been used in my experience to exclude minorities: poc, trans femmes, and neuroatypical people, from mostly white german afab lefty structures. I think it should be ok to ask why someone feels unsafe with a trans woman of colour living in their collective house. Why someone's callout makes you uncomfortable.
Is this somehow specific to the German community?
Always thought it was just a very loud minority of feminists everywhere…
How do other feminist communities differ?
@phryk well i only speak towards germany since that's what i know and i dont want to say the other european countries are the same.
im not saying its a loud minority tho, im saying this is the majority. im not just talking about your obvious terf.
@eribloodlust Thanks for sharing your perspective. Always hard to get some feeling for communities you're not part of, so it's appreciated. :)
