memetic-reengineering

This chapter of The Xenofeminist Manifesto critiques political illusions and melancholia as inhibitors to large-scale social change, emphasizing the necessity of strategic, collective organization beyond local or microcommunity efforts. It challenges the fixation on stable identity categories within queer and feminist politics, advocating for a radical break from naturalized notions of sex and gender to enable genuine freedom. Additionally, it critiques contemporary social media's role in fostering moralistic puritanism and calls for a re-engineering of cultural memes and platforms to better serve emancipatory political aims.
