A Politics for Alienation

The Xenofeminist Manifesto

everyone reviewing this as pretentious is, respectfully, a fucking idiot. why read something that tells one on the can what it's going to be and get mad at it for saying very plainly exactly what it said it would say. it has never been easier to look up what a word means. skill issue.

Pretty cool concepts. Mostly just big pretentious words gesturing to vague ideas. Cool ass graphics though. I like it more if I think of it as an avant-garde leftist art project.

I'm not much for manifestos; speaking stylistically, they're often jumbled in weird unhelpful ways that leave the whole feeling disjointed. This, on the other hand, is wild hope expressed in vivid poetry. Highly recommended.

I found this a bit difficult to follow at some points. Xenofeminism felt kind of ill defined but that might have just been because I couldn't really understand all of the language used. I think that's a really counterproductive way to write a manifesto because how are you meant to recruit more people to your movement if you're using language that is so specific and impenetrable to outsiders? That being said I think the base concept and relationship to nature was interesting and I'd like to read back through it slowly and with the help of a dictionary sometime.
