I've personally ruined a few vaginas and teen girls reputations and I will take responsibility for that.

Everything.
Politics, by swinging the Overton window so far to the left that people unironically think that making terroristic threats to deplatform public speakers and violently taking to the streets to smash people's skulls in with bikelocks is an effective and noble form of political activism.
My ability to enjoy avocados.
My desire to own a pet, lest I be lumped in with my generation's "pet parent" nutjobs.
My happiness as a tranny, because so many trannies are the people I described ruining politics and I'm immediately assumed to be like them.
Video games.
Movies.
Basically all forms of media.
My faith in humanity.
Society.

What the fuck is an Overton window?

It doesn't even work though. All it does is create easy targets that end up pushing moderates away. Crazy mentally ill fucks on tumblr calling for vagina subsidies are not shifting the overton window, they're killing liberalism by creating the public opinion that that's somehow representative of anyone who is anywhere left of the american "center"
It kind of works. I'm not saying it's a perfectly flawless concept, but there is enough validity to it. Society tolerates crazy radical leftist antics like reducing the male population to 10% or killing the bourgeoisie about as much as it tolerates right wingers suggesting folks should be able to own guns and deport brown people who are in the country illegally.
Yes, this backfires and pushes moderates away. That's the Overton window shifting back right again. Until radical right wingers start talking enough batshit crazy nonsense because it's become "acceptable" that it again alienates the moderates and they go back to the left. Et cetera, ad infinitum.
