there's other ancient Egyptian and Mesopotamian deities like that, power has to go through high and low point.

from psychoanalytic perspective, masculine doesn't reach exceptional status without having incorporated something feminine (since they are co-constituted)

idk these guys you're talking about but the point could be that, being the abyss/gap or something else different from ego doesn't need either/or.

it can be a schizophrenic kind of "and", which traverses different identities, modes, polarity without reducing them or itself

reminded me of this essay (also relevant to whole thread)

all of right wing, center, center-left, and most of the "populist" far left (actually just boring demsocs) are all operating by the same paradigm: accept capitalism but reform it to secure the "will of the people" which in practice is just nationalist family units competing forever

ya I don't think there's such a thing as left wing in parliament anymore.

liberal democracy (even a "socialist" one) is categorically incapable of resolving the trans question, as it is deeply invested in family form and private accumulation
September 5, 2025 at 5:49 PM
ok but it sounds bad already, do you understand that this does not inspire hope for left wing people, especially trans ones?

like yeah maybe it's not set formally but these conversations show us the tendencies present

which do you mean? because the standard Blanchard take is it's just self fantasy as woman. the "autoheterosexual" is Phil Illy iirc?

the difference is to go all the way and see women's sexuality as necessary structural feature. it's kinda like what Wittgenstein said about Otto Weininger.
September 5, 2025 at 6:41 AM
if you go through the posts I linked I connect it to Lacan sexuation formula and the gap left in feminism

idk how standard this is no one knows what I'm talking about half the time

oh I should mention I see AGP as being about the heterosexual script, so "meta attraction" and even hsts are both related to it.

for lesbian trans women the script goes from Man->woman to just ->woman where she can inscribe herself on either side (being object of desire, or chasing some other girl)
September 5, 2025 at 12:42 AM
I've been using psychoanalysis to connect AGP to the difference of sexuation: mode of being active/passive that is correlated with man/woman.

"AGP trаnnies" are the only ones who draw scorn because they are read as active agent. passive patient HSTS is unconsciously feminine

The universal perspective (male sexuation) has this societal anti-pattern:

- servility to facts and science
- man is deterministic eugenics monkey
- woman can't be defined except womb + hole
- the fake is in phone/media, the real is offline
- state finance is like family savings

Capitalism functions by offering a fix to our existential human condition through the logic of permanent Identity in genetic legacy.

This inherently forces circulation of money and sex values to remain private, perpetuating the solution which caused its own problem.

"It was compelled to construe the evolution of society as if it were possible for capitalist accumulation to operate in the rarified atmosphere of mathematical formulae, i.e. un· problematically and without a World War" - from this we get our structure of nation =family =self =private accumulation

"They found themselves in a capitalist society ‘in general’ – and its existence seemed to them to correspond to the nature of human reason, and the ‘laws of nature’ every bit as much as it had seemed to Ricardo and his successors, the bourgeois vulgar economists.” - Lukacs

the whole value/cost of social/labour reproduction problem is displaced to basic demsoc "fund more childcare and protect women"

as if that resolves the heinous contradictions of biological essentialist xenophobic capitalism.

all this shit is connected to dimension of sex/gender which is IGNORED

I feel like all these leftist strains of politics fail the trans question for the same reason they only have nominal inclusion of women in their parties/orgs, but not a fundamental shift of women's role in theory.

labour exploitation in public sphere fails to include domestic labour properly

Like I actually feel like I have something to contribute where she left stuff off but it's so stupid how I've never looked at her writings because she's big bad TERF

fuck it's so hot when they're smart but evil
