Holy fuck, did y’all see that leak of Turning Points USA chats where TPUSA members shared rape memes and admit to watching child porn? One openly admitted to dressing as ICE so they could grope latinas.
i appreciate what rose mcgowan has done in bringing down weinstein and raising awareness, but the fact that y’all are using that to excuse her transphobia is a joke
“[Trans women] assume because they felt like a woman on the inside. That’s not developing as a woman. That’s not growing as a woman, that’s not living in this world as a woman, and a lot of the stuff I hear trans complaining about, yeah, welcome to the world.” - Rose McGowan
that’s fucking heinous. when she was confronted by a trans woman about her statements, Rose McGowan accused of not doing anything for women before going on a rant about being attacked for her vagina.
also, hey, remember when Rose McGowan worked with convicted pedophile and child pornographer Victor Salva and, when confronted, said this: “I still don’t really understand the whole story or history there, and I’d rather not, because it’s not really my business. But he’s an incredibly sweet and gentle man.”
Rose McGowan appears to me to be someone trying desperately to be famous for being activist, but is confused and angered that she can’t spew hate about one group of people whilst trying to publicly defend another. I get the distinct impression that she wasn’t expecting the outpouring of abuse stories which followed hers which has stolen her limelight and shone a brighter light on her troublesome beliefs. For me it was the attempt to steal attention from #meto onto #rosearmy which took the biscuit.
and don’t forget how she literally tried to attack alyssa milano for being a part of the MeToo movement, saying her support and experiences weren’t genuine and calling her a “lie.”
I’m not defending McGowan, but I feel like it’s important to point out that Andi Dier (the trans woman who called her out) has plenty of her own issues
here are some receipts. MAJOR tw for these.
Again, I’m not defending McGowan. I’m just adding this because it’s not very well known and I’m tired of seeing this predator praised as some kind of trans icon.
in one of his recent “shane and friends” podcasts, shane admitted to finding a 10-13 year old girl ‘sexy’ and repeatedly defended pedophilia at the discomfort of his co-host, he stated he doesn’t understand why you can get arrested for viewing child porn because he thinks its “just like another kink”, his co-host even said “you cant defend pedophilia” to which shane replied with “well that’s not true…”
the video (heres a link to it) only has 2000 retweets currently, he has 11 MILLION subscribers, most of which being very young children, please spread this, i dont want to see children idolize a literal monster anymore
TW: the video is EXTREMELY graphic and uncomfortable, please please dont watch it if youre sensitive to subjects such as child porn or pedophilia
