Right wing Indian Americans unironically think they’re “Aryan” when the Nazis start up their spiels, they seem to genuinely believe they’re in the club. There’s actually a pretty interesting historical interaction between the Hindu nationalist movements and Nazism.
Nikki’s kind of weird, though. Her parents were Sikh, and she says she’s Christian, but I tend to assume political religious believers have only one tenet of faith, the tenet of personal gain.
I’ve known a number of gay republicans who are the same way and super antitrans, in their minds there’s no universe where that’d ever backfire on them once the trans folk are successfully eliminated.
I’ve never understood these people who are like “I get it… Til I don’t, THEN I HATE IT.” Like, gay republicans understand that gay hatred is misguided and stupid and born of falsehoods like waking up one day deciding dick is the way - then give that same ignorant hatred to the next marginalized group.
I have a friend, generic cis woman. Borderline leftist. Pro worker, pro woman/abortion/autonomy, pro gay, generally live and let live, BUT self professed TERF. Workers? Oppressed folk just trying to live life. Women? Oppressed folk just trying to live life. Gays, POC? Oppressed folk just trying to live life.
Trans folk? Trans women aren’t real, they’re men stealing womanhood and femininity right out from under real women’s noses and must be stopped.
I DON’T GET IT. I don’t understand how you can just have such an arbitrary wall where it’s like “Hate is bullshit and we’re ALL being kept down and fucked… Except THEM. They’re comically sat morning cartoon evil.”
