I met these fools years ago in Jewish leftist tumblr. We all finally got together IRL yesterday, March 26th, to protest in the biggest-ever Jewish-led opposition to AIPAC.

0x0E Xenofeminism is gender-abolitionist. ‘Gender abolitionism’ is not code for the eradication of what are currently considered ‘gendered’ traits from the human population. Under patriarchy, such a project could only spell disaster—the notion of what is ‘gendered’ sticks disproportionately to the feminine. But even if this balance were redressed, we have no interest in seeing the sexuate diversity of the world reduced. Let a hundred sexes bloom! ‘Gender abolitionism’ is shorthand for the ambition to construct a society where traits currently assembled under the rubric of gender, no longer
furnish a grid for the asymmetric operation of power. ‘Race abolitionism’ expands into a similar formula—that the struggle must continue until currently racialized characteristics are no more a basis of discrimination than than the color of one’s eyes. Ultimately, every emancipatory abolitionism must incline towards the horizon of class abolitionism, since it is in capitalism where we encounter oppression in its transparent, denaturalized form: you’re not exploited or oppressed because you are a wage labourer or poor; you are a labourer or poor because you are exploited.
0x0F Xenofeminism understands that the viability of emancipatory abolitionist projects—the abolition of class, gender, and race—hinges on a profound reworking of the universal. The universal must be grasped as generic, which is to say, intersectional. Intersectionality is not the morcellation of collectives into a static fuzz of cross-referenced identities, but a political orientation that slices through every particular, refusing the crass pigeonholing of bodies. This is not a universal that can be imposed from above, but built from the bottom up – or, better, laterally, opening new lines of transit across an uneven landscape. This non-absolute, generic universality must guard against the facile tendency of conflation with bloated, unmarked particulars—namely Eurocentric universalism—whereby the male is mistaken for the sexless, the white for raceless, the cis for the real, and so on. Absent such a universal, the abolition of class will remain a bourgeois fantasy, the abolition of race will remain a tacit white-supremacism, and the abolition of gender will remain a thinly veiled misogyny, even—especially— when prosecuted by avowed feminists themselves. (The absurd and reckless spectacle of so many self-proclaimed ‘gender abolitionists’ campaign against trans women is proof enough of this).

| me in 2010, amateur discourse: | don't assume a girl is a lesbian just because she has short hair and wears flannel! |
| me in 2016, Advanced discourse: | the symbols same gender attracted people display in order to solicit themselves to other sga people is important to the proliferation of the community, and in a culture where everyone is presumed straight until proven otherwise to ignore the connotations of these identity markers in order to prioritize straight people amounts to an erasure of the sga community itself regardless of intent |
Who remembers Green River Soda?
A true Chicago original, Green River - the lime flavored, electric green soda, was introduced in 1919. As prohibition took hold of the nation in 1920, the Schoenhofen Edelweiss Brewery (18th and Canalport in Pilsen) saw it as a way to survive during the dry years.
At one time, Green River trailed only Coca Cola in the Midwest as the most popular nonalcoholic drink.
It has made a local resurgence lately, however only around the time of St. Patrick’s Day.
