      “Gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss” is an ironic phrase that makes fun of people who celebrate women being powerful, even if they do terrible things. Many conservative feminists celebrate women becoming billionaires or women elected to office, even though billionaires are inherently immoral and female politicians can be just as corrupt as male ones. It’s Hillary Clinton congratulating a fascist becoming the prime minister of Italy simply because she’s a woman. It’s the people who applaud extremely rich women as feminist icons, even though most of their money comes from capital they own and not the labor they contribute. If a god of plague, destruction, and torture presented herself as a woman, these people would applaud her for breaking up the hegemony of evil male gods.

      it’s a toxicity match made in toxic heaven where god gaslights you about bible stuff and the two humans end up together despite all the reasons they shouldn’t be in a relationship, because it makes god happy
