The Radfem Test

Howdy! My name is Erin and I’m a trans woman and I’m here to teach YOU (yes you) how to screen your tumblr dashboard for TERF ACTIVITY. 

What the Radfem Test will do is provide an easy and quick way to prevent yourself from accidentally reblogging and supporting TERFs and their content. Because a lot of it isn’t obviously transphobic, but has a veiled message of transphobic rhetoric. 

STEP 1) Go to your blocked tags list and block the term “radical feminism”. You can also block the phrases “radfem” “TERF safe” and “Radfem safe”.

STEP 2) Whenever a post pops up on your dashboard that was blocked due to these tags, click to see the post, and then go to the OP’s (original poster’s) blog.

STEP 3) Scope out their blog! If their username sounds TERFy (common TERF usernames mention chromosomes, biology, wombyn, womyn, and radfem), you may have a TERF. If their profile mentions being “gender critical” you DEFINITELY have a TERF. If they say they don’t believe in self diagnosis, you’ve got someone who is at the very least TERF adjacent. Be thorough in your checking!

STEP 4) If the OP is a TERF, block them! Keep your dashboard safe for trans people! Be a good ally!

And please, reblog this post! Spread the test far and wide! Help out your trans friends!

I said what i said 😔👏

( if this somehow starts discourse do not even bother please i do not have the patience wjfjdk )

If I don’t see each and every single one of you reblogging this, I swear to god

This user is very fucking Jewish and hates all fucking Nazis and Anti-Semites! :D

^^^^^^^^^^^^^

And y’all better get off this user’s blog if you don’t hate all fucking Nazis and Anti-Semites! :DD

I have 309 followers.

Let’s see how many I lose.

IF YOU ARE A NAZI , BYE BYE

Friendly reminder that Hitler was a literal methhead, as were most of the Wehrmacht. Read Blitzed: Drugs in Nazi Germany by Norman Ohler if you don’t believe me.

Ominous positivity

You will be okay. You have no choice.

Everything will turn out fine. You cannot stop it.

You will succeed. It is inevitable.

JESUS????

i had no idea they were so frickin huge

I love them so much because they’re about as sharp as a baseball and their anatomy is ridiculous to the point of them literally being classified as plankton for years because they just sort of get blown around by the ocean and look confused, but because they lay more eggs than ANY OTHER VERTEBRATE IN EXISTENCE, evolution can’t stop them

Why is no big predator coming and gnawing on them?

Their biggest defense is that they’re massive and have super tough skin, but they do get hunted by sharks or sea lions sometimes and they just sort of float there like ‘oh bother’ as it happens

Even funnier, because they eat nothing but jellyfish they’re really low in nutritional value anyway, so they basically survive by being not worth eating because they’re like a big floating rice cracker wrapped in leather.

So basically the only reason natural selection hasn’t taken care if them is because they are the most useless fish

yes, they’ve perfected uselessness to the point of being unstoppable

a true inspiration

when jackasses say “survival of the fittest” show them this beauty

O my fucking god guys rock Trollex is wearing fish net stockings on his fucking fins and he... HEBNDMEM.. HES A F

stop talking about whatever you’re talking about and talk about how cute poppy is when she says i love you back to branch

Ok I have to say it again cause. Nobody is talking about it.

It felt like, at least to me, the i love you’s felt really platonic and I’m not saying broppy DIDNT happen but I’m just REALLY confused. because the way I see this, it doesn’t feel canon. They didn’t even hug or anything after, they HIGH FIVED. and don’t get me wrong, the high five was fucking dope, but have you really never told your friends you love them? Personally, at least, me and my friends say “I love you” to each other all the time.

I’m just trying to say, I guess, that from my perspective tbis scene felt like they were purposely trying to make it feel platonic. I also want to note that poppy gave NO SIGNS of any interest throughout the whole movie and it makes me sad cause I really love broppy :(( I jsut wish more people would talk about this

Didn’t seem that way to me at all. This scene was very intentionally played as romantic. My friends and I say we love each other too, but this was played more like a very purposeful confession. It’s not a revelation or a moment that needs to sink in when a close friend says they love you in a platonic way, or at least it’s never felt that way for me.

I agree that Poppy’s feelings for Branch weren’t really as clear until the Perfect For Me scene, but I chock that up to it just not being at the front of her mind up to that point, not necessarily that she wasn’t aware of it.

Plus a head animator confirmed that the part right after the high-five where it’s too far away to see what’s happening was Poppy kissing him. 

I’m happy that they made Broppy canon, but if I’m being honest, the way it plays out feels a bit forced to me, like third graders reciting lines in a play. I agree with those who have said an apology would have been a good starter here. It was (and please don’t hate me for this) almost enough to make me ship them less.

On the other hand, I do accept Kevan Shorey’s answer about it being a kiss. I’ve analyzed the footage, and it definitely looks like Poppy running into Branch’s arms and kissing him. And that part does not feel forced, like it’s what they both wanted all along.

I absolutely agree there should have been an apology. It’s clear that Poppy learned her lesson, but she has to reiterate that to the people she affected. But I think the confession itself was good, if a little rushed.

I agree Poppy abd Branch were meant for each other behind all odds, their i love you had a lot of heart and feeling to it. The kiss was clearly Canon even if we couldn’t see it and the high five indicates that they are both on the same page and understand each other better.

SO MANY PEOPLE REBLOGGED THIS WITH MY COMMENT AND I NEVER SAW IT OH GOD LOL

I wanna say that after rewatching the movie, during the day and when I wasn’t tired, I can see a little better now that there’s definitely something there, but it’s a bit subtle until the very end and I wasn’t able to catch on the first time around, lmao

@belleevangeline @kate669 @happyqueenandgrumpydork (sorry for the tags! lol)

Oh see and I was gonna say I don’t totally disagree with your thought that maybe it was a little platonic, ‘cause that was my initial thought. Like you, @peri-space-dorito, I felt it a little more after the second watch, and although we know for certain based on literally every confirmation and Branch’s first lines in the movie that it’s definitely canon, it probably could’ve been expanded on here a little bit more. I mean, what’s an extra 2 minutes of runtime, really?

On the other hand, I’m really kind of happy with the slow development of their relationship over the course of the two movies and the special (I don’t know how canonical the series is and I haven’t seen it so I won’t speak to it). DreamWorks, in my opinion, does a really good job of relationship development for the most part and although I thought Branch and Poppy were together at the end of the first, it’s really nice that they decided Branch had just been pining after Poppy all this time and they didn’t just go on one adventure and fall in love immediately–they knew each other for years, one event sparked something in Branch, and it took him a while to speak up. And although this scene felt a little more platonic than a full-on “SHE’S THE LOVE OF MY LIFE” confession could’ve gone, it’s been a nice, gradual lead up until this point. So I have no complaints.

Oh, one demand though:

TROLLS 3.

sorry for late reblog but yes!!! i totally agree with you here. plus sometimes the “SHE’S THE LOVE OF MY LIFE” thing gets old.. like, it’s not just black or white, and Branch doesn’t really seem the type to be like that so quickly

Yeah Branch is way too much of a realist to just jump into something like that. Friends to lovers and enemies to friends to lovers are like my favorite tropes because they’re built on a strong foundation instead of just throwing caution to the wind and falling in love instantly (plus I’m a slut for the whole “they were right there all along!” thing) and I just gotta commend DreamWorks because they’ve always been great at relationship development rather than just love at first sight. It works EXTREMELY well in this context given the characters’ personalities and relations with each other over the years, and I really like the gradual lead-up. That said, would I be opposed to something along the lines of a wedding in future Trolls installments? No, but maybe I’m just a sucker for the concept of King Branch.

I hope, if there’s a next movie, the keep with the Broppy-taking-it-slow thing... getting a wedding after them finally only now actually being together, even if they did a timeskip, would feel far too fast and be.. pretty unsatisfying to see, tbh

Random Observations/Things I Enjoyed About This Movie (because yes, I literally wrote some down the last time I saw it)

- Can we just all acknowledge the fact that the original cage around the Troll Tree…..wouldn’t keep the Trolls from escaping? Like the thing is giant and they could have easily done cartwheels through the spaces between the bars

- “Princess Poppy, do the Bergens still want to eat us?”         “You bet!!” *giant smile*

- Poppy and DJ Suki’s little dance segment on top of the bug during the mashup

- “I could hear you guys from a mile away!”        “Good, I was worried we weren’t projecting enough”                    *Bonus: the way Branch says “the Bergens” in this scene

- The montage of Branch panicking over the Bergens also being a montage of Branch constantly messing up a couple’s life

- The fact that during the Hug Time after the mashup, I’m pretty sure Guy Diamond is just hugging himself

- Hearing someone break a glass something and just casually call out “Sorry Branch!” when everyone invades the bunker

- The fact that I can’t be positive, but I’m pretty damn sure Creek is doing a Jeff-Goldbloom-in-Jurassic-Park pose on the top of Poppy’s “WE DID IT!!” scrapbook page

- Branch and Poppy arguing over whether to ask for directions like the married couple they are

- “I’m gonna tear you little cloud arms off your little cloud body and hi-five your FACE with them!”         “Branch he’s just a cloud!!”

- “Let’s go save our friends!”        “Your friends.”               “Our friends, don’t fight it!”

- “I’ll be standing right behind you……holding a knife”        “What?”               “Holding a knife, a spoon, a ladle, I’m your Chef after all!!”

- Branch looking absolutely dumbfounded when Poppy finger-sushes him in the hallway

- The way Bridget goes down the stairs; she looks and sounds like a wooden doll someone’s moving around

- Poppy’s scoff-y “No, Bridget, please, no” after Bridget asks if she loves Gristle too

- “That’s right Bridget, have a good cry, let it all out — ok now bring it back in, reel it back in”

- “You’ll tell me what to say?”         “Of course I will!”              “Of course I will!”                   “Ok, just wait until we get inside”

- “It’s got a wingdingle on it!”      “Look at you your majesty, such a big grown up boy”

- Bridget’s “Oh, um, that’s pretty I guess” when Gristle shows her the Creek locket-clasp

- The faces Poppy and Branch make at each other during the “up top! too slow” scene

- The fact that Branch still has…..not wrinkles, but creases? lines? around his eyes even after he gets his colors back

- Poppy and Branch overseeing the tunnel entrance, making sure everyone gets out safely like the future queen and king they are

- The fact that the Trolls only go back and show the Bergens how to be happy and change everything because Poppy wanted to protect Bridget       *Bonus: “And I love you for that”                         “I love you too Bridget”

- The way Branch isn’t next to Poppy when she first starts dancing on the castle steps. You can see in the next shot that he runs in from like off-screen like he missed a cue or something

- The way Poppy and Branch come together to hold hands after she’s coronated and look at each other like they’ve never seen anything so beautiful before dear god please just get married you’re killing me

- The entirety of the credits. Those were just a gift to humanity            oh wait, to trollmanity

Oh! I can’t believe I forgot!

- Branch grinning like an idiot and bobbing his head while Poppy sings the beginning of “Can’t Stop the Feeling”

Aaaaand a few more (too few to make this its own post)

- The fact that Branch is holding his stick bundle when we first see him, is still carrying it - presumably - several hours later while watching the party, and is only just seen putting it away while talking to Poppy in the bunker. Like he is really attached to those sticks

- “They could still be out there. Watching. Waiting. Listening”

- The fact that the snake chasing Poppy in “Get Back Up Again” bites at her on the beat

- The fact that Gristle wears socks with sandals

- “Chad. Todd.”

- The look that Poppy and Branch give each other once they land in Bridget’s apron tie

- The fact that Branch’s overdramatic butt crouches down and scuttle-crab-walks under the table in Bridget’s room, despite the fact that Poppy easily ran across the same space 3 seconds earlier 

- “You’d be delighted”           “Huh, indeed I would”

- The way Chef’s skate drags across the floor as she approaches Bridget and Gristle

- The fact that Poppy instinctively calls for Branch to get her back on the skate when she jumps to grab Creek over the friends she’s had for years      like she has such intrinsic trust in him and they work so well together without even thinking about it i love them?

(last one maybe!)

- “And now I have to live with this for the rest of my life. At least you get to die with a clear conscience”

(I lied.)

- The fact that, even though I have seen this movie 6 times now, I still always think Branch is saying “shit shit shit!” while he’s trying to pick up all his invitations

LOL
