easy_andy: J.K. Rowling's lifestyle really baffles me. Why do she, a billionaire, use webcam photos as a pfp, watch Die Hard on a TV stuck on the floor at 720p and quote Andrea Dworkin, of all people, to justify her anti-trans rallies?

kittychocklit: Andrea Dworkin's brain is like a work of art. she's so specific that it comes to a point where whether or not you agree with her ceases to be the point, her thots are just *there* and you go "ah, i see"

somemuttscantb1: When I see JK Rowling quoting Andrea Dworkin, I can let myself hope that things are gonna be alright.

RadFemCollectiv: Our resistance has not been serious. It has not been enough. Andrea Dworkin

faggot9000: ok? Should we celebrate? should we throw a party? Should we invite Andrea Dworkin?

jacobkozinn: Get it? Misandrist feminists (e.g. my mother, Andrea Dworkin, J.K. Rowling) try to portray some gynephilia as misogyny, it is an absolute perversion, they incite real and actual violence, they perform actual violence, and it will get more violent if the dishonesty continues

LornaBracewell: Andrea Dworkin's first impressions of Florida: "the wild life, the bugs, the reptiles, the scorpions, rattlesnakes and other poisonous snakes, many large and fearsome spiders... huge cockroaches... Everything was foreign, utterly strange and bizarre."

cerseicurls: quote by Andrea dworkin, intercourse. euphoria, big little lies, titanic, and the medusa myth.

deadtransmed: since reading Andrea Dworkin I feel like she has metaphorically ripped open my heart y’all did not warn me this was going to be so intense like I knew, but I did not KNOW

Kiwipally: If Andrea Dworkin were alive now, and she was researching her Right Wing Women book, would she be denounced as a Nazi by the same "feminists" calling KJK a Nazi?

easy_andy: Doing this to WWII veterans who fought Nazis are like transphobic feminist citing Andrea Dworkin to back up their views. Totally the wrong person to cite but it's also just so disrespectful to what they stood up for.

Sunsetboy4ever1: "Men often react to women's words-speaking and writing-as if they were acts of violence; sometimes men react to women's words with violence...Most women have experienced enough dominance from men-control, violence, insult, contempt-that no threat seems empty." Andrea Dworkin

nikkicraft: Andrea Dworkin Archival Project

aynrandfan: Hey, how did that Korean War turn out? «…She is 24, studying for civil-servant exams, and likes reading Andrea Dworkin…»

ObviousrebelM: Rowling quoting Andrea Dworkin in an anti trans argument is very funny given that Dworkin eventually became trans inclusive,

easy_andy: TRANSPHOBES STOP QUOTING ANDREA DWORKIN CHALLENGE [IMPOSSIBLE!]

marginalutilite: Why is everyone suddenly talking about Andrea Dworkin? (I've never gotten past my chagrin that someone so ideologically harmful was actually a p. solid autobiographical writer.)

LeanneHPatrick: "Men often react to women's words - speaking and writing - as if they were acts of violence" - Andrea Dworkin

blandCinema: JK Rowling deleted the Andrea Dworkin post, I guess she found out Dworkin would never be on her side

speakoutsister: We don't actually know they're angry That's another assumption. Maybe it's an animated conversation. We can make a fair guess that Andrea Dworkin - who supported trans people and wrote a book called right wing women would not support Kellie Jay Keen though.

speakoutsister: Note for anyone just reading. The quoted tweet had now been deleted. It was a tweet by JK Rowling with an Andrea Dworkin quote about male violence and a picture of a tall dark person speaking to a shorter blonde person.

redlianak: Andrea Dworkin once accused the bartender and waiter at a hotel she was staying at of rape because she felt sick after drinking and woke up with a bruise and an injury on her leg. She didn't go to the police. She just wrote about it in the New Statesman. It's seen as a sus story.

heavenstobetsie: I'd like to kindly invited Jowling Kowling Rowling to keep Andrea Dworkin out of her hastily deleted mouth. And for terfs generally to stop claiming her as one of them, which she very much was not.

easy_andy: Transphobic feminists quoting Andrea Dworkin

BostonReview: "Trans-critical radical feminists invoke Andrea’s name on the presumption that, were she alive today, she would be one of them. I know she wouldn’t." — Andrea Dworkin's longtime partner, John Stoltenberg.

DeseretStone: “Don’t drive a car—it’s too dangerous” “Don’t get a job—you might get laid off” “Don’t travel—the plane might crash” “Don’t go to the beach—you might get sunburned” Same energy. I swear, 75% of MGTOW is just “what if Andrea Dworkin, but a DUDE?”

real_woland: "Actually Dworkin said" bro you do NOT want to hear what your new bedfellows think about Andrea Dworkin

disseminatrix13: “Men often react to women’s words—speaking and writing—as if they were acts of violence; sometimes men react to women’s words with violence...Most women have experienced enough dominance from men—control, violence, insult, contempt—that no threat seems empty.” Andrea Dworkin

gamer98cc: Here is Rowling citing Andrea Dworkin in a now deleted tweet:

danielneljack: I note that JK Rowling doesn’t mention the quote from Andrea Dworkin where she says that trans people have the right to free gender-affirming surgeries and to survival on their own terms, and that they should be “be integrated into community, no longer persecuted and despised.”

bluebombah: JK Rowling is trash. Look at how little she cares for feminism when she cherry-picks info and entirely sullies the reputation and work of those much better than she in the process? Andrea Dworkin was a trans ally. Horrible to use her work like this.

thiccbookthotty: I’m so sick of people quoting Andrea Dworkin. She’s a reactionary conservative feminist that worked w/ right wingers. She is a not a feminist, she’s a grifter.

bitginger: “‘Man’ and ‘woman’ are fictions, caricatures, cultural constructs. As models they are reductive, totalitarian, inappropriate to human becoming. As roles they are static, demeaning to the female, dead-ended for male and female both” also Andrea Dworkin.

jacobkozinn: This is what happens when you build curricula and worldviews around hateful psychopaths like Andrea Dworkin instead of peacemakers like Judith Butler. Or maybe, you know, hit the street and reality instead of ivory towering it. Ain't nothing more supremacist than an ivory tower

strawberryspit: “I love, cherish, and respect women in my mind, in my heart, and in my soul. This love of women is the soil in which my life is rooted. It is the soil of our common life together. My life grows out of this soil. In any other soil, I would die.” Andrea Dworkin

easy_andy: Something I really love about Andrea Dworkin's work is how there's a lot of introspective deep-dives she does into stuff, but she also wasn't at all mean-spirited even though she did have a capacity to be deeply lacerating.

MxVivianWulf: Incidentally so called "radical feminists", such as Julie Bindel's friend Andrea Dworkin, allying themselves with the right-wing helped spur that moral panic on too. Almost like it's the same people, the same groups, spreading the same lies told for generations.

furnitureman14: My beloved Andrea Dworkin explicitly hates me because she said the kind of person she could not stand the most is the person who does not go out and live their lives for fear of hurting others or something like that.

princesstehangi: aha the sweet spot when your poetry hero muses on the bookshelfs of your youth

preshitorian: We need to raise Andrea Dworkin from the dead to fight her.

IDAIP8: -- Andrea Dworkin

Terfbot9000: Andrea Dworkin is ridiculous.

IWillBPOTUS: I love how these Andrea Dworkin clones act like these platforms committed these crimes. It should be the people who made the videos and did the trafficking that should be in trouble, not the platforms.

chlumbucket: Andrea Dworkin found alive

femicidevictim: thanks to whatever or whoever sent me an andrea dworkin book....

easy_andy: Andrea Dworkin is cool though. Her Wikipedia pic is literally from a show she did where she and Roz Kaveney tore into Anthony Burgess, and had like publicly trans-positive views since at least 1974.

dhaaruni: Sometimes I go back to this 2018 profile of Heidi Cruz and like, Andrea Dworkin was RIGHT.

trinitylafey: In the spirit of long memory (and attention span), 'm gonna' try to share a documentary, lecture or snippet a day. Today, it is: Woman hating left and right ~ Andrea Dworkin

minstradamidas: so... have y'all heard of andrea dworkin ? :/

maiamindel: God, family, Andrea Dworkin

Hungry4GoodArt: Can't agree. X-MEN, FF, any team or title will mean nothing if handled by post-modernist cheesebrains, suck-ups to tikkytokkytardians or closet fans of Andrea Dworkin lunacy. Building Xavier's masion w/termite-ridden wood yields naught.

crittereditor: tear da club up thugz ft andrea dworkin - crazyndalazdayz at hot slit

pileapop: remember when someone said andrea dworkin gaslit them and their friends

MacKinnonDaily: Instead of being lionized and admired for her genius, instead of being able to earn a decent living as a writer, Andrea Dworkin was misrepresented and demonized.

rachelcorbman: “incredibly stuffy & feminist unctuous at the same time… [a footnote] says simply ‘Andrea Dworkin helped me express this!’ The initial footnote for this 23 p article individually acknowledges the help of over 30 people. how many feminists does it take to screw in a lightbulb?”

Shut_the_fridge: Andrea Dworkin did not intend for us to give up our rights if men stopped naming us “women". Our rights need fighting for even more. There are no conditions as to whether or not we continue to fight for our core feminist beliefs.

Terfbot9000: Andrea Dworkin is a slur.

LESBlANMlLF: Watching American dad and reading essays on Andrea Dworkin

ChurchLifeND: The warped desire in Dworkin (like in Augustine) is not eradicated or stomped out, but is rather realized, healed, and, in its healed form, actualized. This healed desire is “the passion that is gentle in that it does not destroy.” --Hope Brannon

DAbazovic: Feminism is hated because women are hated. Anti-feminism is a direct expression of misogyny; it is the political defense of women hating. Andrea Dworkin

RebellaSmith: Yeah Andrea Dworkin!!

trinitylafey: In the spirit of long memory (and attention span), 'm gonna' try to share a documentary, lecture or snippet a day. Today, it is: Andrea Dworkin: life and death

feedyourhead66: "No woman could've been Neitzche or Rimbaud without ending up in a whorehouse or lobotomized" - Andrea Dworkin This is true even today.

reegnkay: are there any radical feminist literary critics aside from Andrea Dworkin

FemRadicalSpain: 1979 Andrea Dworkin.

maximumgraves: she andrea on my dworkin until i intercourse (1987)

BenBurch93: And Andrea Dworkin is still dead.

chippdnailss: "One can know everything and still want desperately to know nothing because to face what we know is to question whether life is worth anything at all." -Andrea Dworkin, Letters From A War Zone

Syrians4J: 3. There's a lot of stuff from the Scottish editor of The Sun and other Brexiteer unionist papers, all now more militantly feminist than Andrea Dworkin, at least on trans rights, which For Women Scotland & co cares passionately nay obsessively about. Just like Vladimir Putin.

nanoputty: “This book would not be complete without a chapter on Andrea Dworkin’s powerful meditation on power and gender roles. Without her piercing gaze we would never have seen the Joan Didion-like genius in Max Nordau.

plarp__: Andrea Dworkin was cool

DonovanCleckley: “I think that economic independence is so important, because I think intimate relationships should be freely chosen.” - Andrea Dworkin, interviewed by David Gold, 1990

WaterTheRust: "feminists from Mary Shelley to Andrea Dworkin adopted the moral outlook of the Enlightenment, which specified that morality was another word for the strong oppressing the weak and that technology (or Nature, or science) had made morals unnecessary" - E. M. Jones

fem_mb: Just home from seeing "My Name is Andrea", a film abt Andrea Dworkin, with some other feminists. It was pretty good, though tough to watch due to the brutality of her life. The first person to speak at the discussion afterward was a 20-something (1/4)

abrichtung: Andrea Dworkin

socjuswiz: Andrea Dworkin was right.

cristanwilliams: Can we drop-ship Andrea Dworkin’s Right Wing Women to every GOP/GC woman on the planet, please?

monsieurtumblew: I wonder what sort of music Andrea Dworkin likes...

fem_mb: The Portland Museum of Art in Maine is showing a film about Andrea Dworkin tomorrow. Tickets are at this site ($9).

DrJenIzaakson: ‘While fascists then and now see the nuclear family as the core of society, with the father as its head, radical feminists like Andrea Dworkin saw this model as the means by which women are entrapped by men. To free ourselves requires resisting such domestication…’

hearddefender: i love andrea dworkin so much

bicycleuser: The best radical feminist thought from the 70s & 80s was not anti-trans; it describes women as oppressed in a binary system that is “real but not true”. Liberation thus lies beyond binary gender. Great piece from Andrea Dworkin’s partner:

lawgicalradfemg: "We have a double standard, which is to say, a man can show how much he cares by being violent -- see, he's jealous, he cares -- a woman shows how much she cares by how much she's willing to be hurt; by how much she will take; how much she will endure." - Andrea Dworkin

m0usyblonde: the harley quinn tattoo on my wrist, felice fawn is my phone lock screen, the andrea dworkin memoir on my nightstand….. i am a walking red flag

jose55632: If you want a definition of what a coward is, it’s needing to push a whole class of people down so that you can walk on top of them.,Andrea Dworkin,cowardice, oppression,

femliyana: "Andrea dworkin was not a man hater," a think-piece headline says, trying to make Dworkin palatable I really hate this lmao. She was most likely a man hater and she was absolutely right to be. If you know the truth about men & are NOT repulsed, there is something wrong w you.

DrProudman: ‘You wont ever know the worst that happened to Nicole Brown Simpson in her marriage, because she is dead and cannot tell you. And if she were alive, remember, you wouldn't believe her. ' — Andrea Dworkin in memory of Nicola Brown Simpson.

heathr: 8/ Andrea Dworkin / My Name Is Andrea This film cast multiple actors who cannot play believably Jewish to play her

g000201n: I’m starting to read Andrea Dworkin. My god, she is such a powerful writer.

markistlemonist: Man imagine being called a white woman coz you said Andrea Dworkin is the kind of feminist one should read

faggot9000: Andrea Dworkin, 1978

furnitureman14: Nothing spurs me on like the fact that Andrea Dworkin was a Zionist.

the__v_o_i_d: Tryna to convince my friend to read andrea dworkin

Madmaddingcrowd: Just saw a clip from a TV show and the comments made wanna run my eyes through an Andrea Dworkin Water Fountain.

MeltedShine: "Objectivity, as I understand it, means that it doesn't happen to YOU." Andrea Dworkin

femicidevictim: i like this andrea dworkin quote

dysforiie: Alleged radical feminists tearing my sister’s looks apart as if MOTHER of their movement Ms. Andrea Dworkin didn’t have this same face and weight like I thought we were anti misogynists around here :////

drustbeltcowboy: J.K. R*wiling is just repackaged Catharine MacKinnon and Andrea Dworkin feminism

Poem of the day

Wilfrid Scawen Blunt Poem
Her Name Liberty
 by Wilfrid Scawen Blunt

I thought to do a deed of chivalry,
An act of worth, which haply in her sight
Who was my mistress should recorded be
And of the nations. And, when thus the fight
Faltered and men once bold with faces white
Turned this and that way in excuse to flee,
I only stood, and by the foeman's might
Was overborne and mangled cruelly.
