I like how Krusty is now openly admitting to being a TERF and how she has been one for a long time but was too “scared” (of losing followers) to say so.
She’s basically agreeing that she’s been lying all this time, exactly like what myself and many others have said.
She’s gone out of her way to attack, harass, and lie about anyone who called her out - many of them people she has privilege over - over a follower count.
Trigger warnings for transmisogyny, cissexism, and misgendering for this post. This is a very long post,
and I’ve decided not to place any of it under a cutthere’s now a “read more” on this post by popular request. If you want the version without the cut, it is also circulating, check the notes. The post is split into sections for easier reading.STFUMRAs and Femfaction are “sister blogs” created by the same person, which is why this post is about them both.
Issues with STFUMRAs:
- Keeps claiming trans women have male socialization and privilege
- Groups trans women in with cis men
- Constantly equates periods with womanhood, refuses to stop
- Ignores cis privilege
- Acts as if trans lesbians don’t exist, and that protesting transmisogynistic exclusion from lesbian communities is about trans women trying to force cis women into sex
- Reblogs and follows TWERFs (trans women exclusionary radical feminists) and transmedicalists (people who believe dysphoria is required to be transgender)
- Pretends accusations of transmisogyny & transphobia are fabricated by anti-feminists
- Never condemns transmisogyny & transphobia from followers
Issues with Femfaction:
- All of the same issues as STFUMRAs
- Mods include TWERFs and transmedicalists
- Trans men are encouraged to speak over trans women
Grouping trans women with cis men:
1) Kristi reblogs a joke post that equates men with penises. When asked not to because of transmisogynistic implications, she gets extremely angry and says to “fuck off.” (There is discussion of genital mutilation, violence, and an image of food. Image descriptions are here).
2) (Violence against women, murder, gun violence, rape mention)
TWERFs attempt to smear trans women by making out like they intend to disrupt a protest for the victims of the L’École Polytechnique massacre, just because they hate women and don’t want them remembered (image is of Natalie Reed wearing a jacket that says “Die cis scum” on the back).
The real goal of the counterevent - to protest the fact that virulent transmisogynists are heading up the Day of Remembrance and to discuss transmisogynistic violence - is clarified by a follower. While stfumras reblogged the clarification, there was no apology offered for spreading misinformation or sharing such a post that is blatantly hostile to and about trans women (TWERFs seriously tried to liken trans women’s motivations to that of the man who is behind the massacre) In fact, the misgendering and nasty language was shrugged off with the excuse “well we didn’t write it“!
3) (Ableism)
A post about how “autogynephilia” is real is reblogged to stfumras. “Autogynephilia” is a bullshit theory that claims trans women are just fetishists who are aroused by “dressing up as women.” I’m not claiming those featured in the article are trans women, but it’s obvious the post is meant to support TWERFs’ transmisogynistic beliefs, as evidenced by OP responding to a (rightfully upset) stfumras follower.
When called on the post through an ask, Kristi handwaves away the follower’s concerns of anti-trans posts on the blog (please note this is the same person who corrected the blatant misinformation and smearing of trans women in the previous point because stfumras reblogged without factchecking), excuses it by saying she reblogged the post “for the mention of Shaye Saint John” and claims she’ll look more into the issue later.
One problem: It’s Kristi who mentions Shaye Saint John. Trinitywells is her personal blog.
She’s openly reblogging “radfems” to STFUMRAs and has for ages anyway. Her totally secret primary blog isn’t gonna show anyone anything that they haven’t already seen on STFUMRAs.
Perhaps anon means all the liked posts about how trans women are rapists? Her liked posts were visible for ages too, but guess you would know more about them if she follows you.
Actually, she had a whole blog made about her less than a year ago when she wouldn’t stop stalking, harassing and gaslighting people who had called her out, even going so far as to knowingly support and defend anti feminists and rape apologists
This blog doesn’t exist because I’m mad she’s a TWERF. This blog exists because she constantly lies about it, and goes to ridiculous lengths to attack people who call her out on anything (e.g. when called on reblogging an anti Semitic user, she published a “defense” from the anti Semite calling the Jewish woman a “h*e” uncritically). Nobody makes callout blogs about TWERFs who don’t deny it because there’s no need.
(By the way… it’s called ACTUALstfumrasreceipts because she made a “receipts” blog that consisted mostly of anons sent to herself and selectively cropped posts. I figured she needed to see some examples of actual receipts, but she doesn’t seem to have learned anything yet, in spite of all the time she spends here)

The thing I think some people get wrong about this blog is thinking that it’s really a question of what your views are. That if you agree with the initial point, then it’s totally fine, and that you should only object if you don’t.
But that’s not it at all. Even if you think some of these posts are just instances of ignorance or that the views aren’t so bad, it doesn’t change the fact that this is someone who has done everything from attack people, imply they have a reputation for “attacking women” without any proof to get out of being criticized, happily support people calling them “h*es”, excuse their harassment by known anti feminists, tell obvious lies, and of course, gaslight people about all of that.
It’s one thing to make a mistake, to react defensively at first, but then to own up to it and apologize after having had some distance and learning more.
It’s quite another to make a habit of pulling out anything and everything you can think to do and say, no matter how disgusting, to silence someone.
It’s an entirely different story when this is how you ALWAYS respond, and when you ALWAYS defend responding that way.
In response to #Blackout, White supremacists who were angry that we dared to have anything that was ours and that didn’t center them thought they’d “counter” by making a Whiteout tag. While most of us ignored them, White “allies” thought they’d
distance themselves from their privilegehelp by mocking them. This post has a warning for classism.(Food mentions link one and three)
Kristi receives an ask suggesting that people spam the Whiteout tag with “pics of rednecks and hillbillies missing teeth on it.”When called on the classism and asked to mock White people without mocking poverty, Kristi feigns ignorance (bonus: a White person and current stfumras mod tries to make this about defending White racists) and then actually claims that poverty has nothing to do with it because Duck Dynasty.
(Homophobia, abortion, rape, rape apologism, cissexism)
Someone else attempts to call stfumras out on the classist crap, and Kristi stubbornly refuses to admit that there’s any association with poverty and just rants on about ignorance, bigotry, and lack of education. She also says she “doesn’t condone the toothless part”, but she hadn’t actually bothered not condoning it until someone pointed out that they were defending mocking “toothless hillbillies”. It wasn’t objected to until it was convenient to do so.(Ableist language)
Someone suggests that anyone complaining about those terms are just looking to claim White oppression, and the primary person calling stfumras out on this says she’s not even White, and repeats that her gripe is with the classism.Kristi snaps that “The OP said NOTHING about poor people and only mentioned hillbillies and rednecks, (toothless part I don’t agree with). Stop changing history because you’re getting proven wrong you liar.”
Even if we pretend that the terms “redneck” and “hillbilly” don’t have strong associations with rural poverty, OP specified toothlessness. Kristi “objected” to that part after she realized it would destroy her point entirely, but it was anon who said it in the first place.
So yelling that “the OP said NOTHING about poor people” is a lie, and Kristi is in zero position to claim that anyone else is “changing history because [they’re] getting proven wrong”.
When people tell her she’s overstepping, Kristi yells about her rural family members and acts as if she has the right to talk about these terms because of them, because she grew up in a small town, and because she’s asked for donations before.
(Racism)
Growing up in a small town where people pretended to be Southern (not the same as rural) doesn’t mean you’ll be classed as a “hillbilly” or “redneck”. Being related to people who might be doesn’t matter either (I’ve never been even close to rich just because my grandfather was!). Toothlessness is associated with extreme poverty; needing some financial help to get a divorce is not poverty of the same degree at all.Even though two other people said that “White trash” was not an acceptable term either and expained how, Kristi kept complaining that CxD was the one “equating” the terms to their actual meanings and that she was the real bigot for pointing out classism (apparently not a real thing to Kristi, as she used scarequotes). Seeing as one of the terms objected to was “White trash”, it’s hypocritical of Kristi to say she understood why it’s an objectionable term but then go on to berate CxD for objecting to it!
Kristi keeps right on with the disgusting tactic of accusing a Native woman of being invested in White supremacy. Even if this were true, this is not her place at all as a White person. She also continues to deny the meaning of the terms and says CxD should “shut up already” and “come off your pedestal.”
Kristi flat out lies about what happened, claiming it all “started when someone told a black person not to call asshole white people hillbillies or rednecks”. While a Black person did step in to claim that this was just a ploy to defend White people, the original ask was by an anon who suggested mocking “rednecks and hillbillies with missing teeth.”
It’s absolutely despicable to rewrite events so that the anon is now definitely a Black person, and so that the words used that make it clear that anon (like most people) associates those terms with poverty are left out. This is a White person being willfully ignorant and pitting brown folks against each other, all because she’s incapable of admitting that she was wrong or speaking out of turn.
(Gore mention)
More accusations of defending Whiteness (speaking of “changing history” to suit you…)First, I want to quickly ask that even if for some reason you’re not convinced that “redneck” and “hillbilly” and “White trash” are classist terms, that you put that aside for a moment and focus on the lying and the backpedaling and the racist overstepping from stfumras. It’s a pattern I’ve already shown in my previous masterpost focusing on transmisogyny.
Second, I didn’t want to leave this without an explanation as to why all this is particularly damaging. First, yes, the terms “redneck” and “hillbilly” and “White trash” are heavily associated with “low class”, uneducated, poor White rural people. I don’t understand how someone can pretend otherwise. Of course the terms aren’t “racist against White people”, but I won’t say they don’t contribute to racism. Let me explain how:
The stereotype is that these people are ignorant and bigoted and oppressive. That may well be true, but by pretending racism is the domain of a subset of White people, we’re ignoring the fact that there are plenty of upper and middle class, well-educated racists. This impression is also really convenient for “liberal” White people, who refuse to accept that yes, they too can be racist, simply because they don’t think they fit the stereotypical image of one.
White supremacy is upheld by all White people, particularly ones with more power. All White people contribute to and benefit from White supremacy. Some are just louder about it.
Further, by calling them “uneducated”, we’re implying that racism is a result of ignorance, just an accident and that “they don’t know any better.” It’s letting them off the hook, and I don’t think I need to explain how it’s classist to mock someone for not having access to quality education, anyway.
A reminder that Kristi of stfumras is a massive racist who thinks it’s acceptable for her, someone who BENEFITS from White supremacy, to tell someone oppressed by it that they’re invested in upholding it.
A reminder that Kristi of stfumras is a White Feminist who responded to a poor Native women’s objections to her classism with gaslighting, mockery, and by accusing her of racism.
A reminder that Kristi of stfumras’ idea of anti racism is to overstep and to use me and mine as a shield for her racist and classist garbage.

Yelling-at-radfems, in response to being called out: You’re making all this up to get me. Stfumras and I are not leaving this website no matter what!
Yelling-at-radfems, after his messages asking a sex worker to call stfumras out on being a SWERF are shared: Actually on second thought, I’m suddenly very worried about my reputation safety, bye!
A bunch of people: So stfumras is pretty transmisogynistic.
Krysstie: Why are you lying about me? This is all old stuff from another mod!
People: Okay, what about these posts that are obviously made by you?
Krysty: This was all before I learned better! These are years old!
People: Okay. Can you stop reblogging posts from transmisogynists?
Christie: No.
People: Can you stop reblogging cissexist posts and misgendering people?
Kristee: No.
People: Can you stop lumping trans women in with cis men?
Crystie: No.
People: …So stfumras is pretty transmisogynistic.
Kyristy: WHAT THE FUCK? I AM SO TIRED OF THIS BULLSHIT! STOP LYING ABOUT ME, YOU HATE WOMEN!
Stfumras is, if not an actual twerf, a twerf supporter
She’s definitely a TWERF, she just thinks if she says she doesn’t consider herself a radical feminist that that’ll be enough to shut people up about her transmisogyny.
Oddly enough, she seems to have no problem with assigning feminist labels to other people, particularly when she wants to use “libfem” as an insult or when she wants to try and shame marginalized people into not calling her out.
