i had trouble picking up on certain expressions as a child so i didn’t understand what ‘let them eat cake’ was supposed to mean or why it was a bad thing i was like. aw that’s nice she’s giving the french peasants cake. why are people mad about this
BASICALLY it’s meant to represent that the person saying it (often attributed to marie antoinette, although she didn’t actually say it) is extremely out of touch and doesn’t understand poverty. like, in context it’s a rich person being told that poor people have no bread to eat and going “?? why don’t they just eat cake then???”, as if the problem was solely a lack of bread specifically and not, like, starvation. i guess a more modern analogue would be if a rich person was told that someone wasn’t able to find an apartment and they were like “ohh they should just get a house instead!!!”

“all men are evil” is radfem/terf rhetoric, but clarifying “all cis men” because you want to signal that you’re not transphobic doesn’t work because it’s still deeply rooted in radfem beliefs. It’s saying you believe there’s something inherently evil in being born/assigned “male”, and you carry it over in how you treat ppl who transition in or out of that gender. “All cis men are evil”, is gender essentialist and you can’t get around that.
Fucking tired of ppl who think their terf soundbites with a fresh coat of paint are sooo progressive
