to the survivors, never let anyone tell you the democrats were anything less than 100% complicit, if not outright aiding and abetting the horrors that are occurring now and will occur in the near future

Should the New York Times be sold to Pennysaver and its editors sent to work in Amazon warehouses? It depends on who you ask.

there is more socioeconomic inequality now in America between the haves and the have-nots than before the Russian and French revolutions. All of human history is a struggle between the haves and the have-nots. The gestapo is shooting have-nots in the street. how long do we hold our breath?

the idea that freedom is in our DNA is just a misinterpretation of the fact that we’re a nation of finicky whiners who don’t like to be personally inconvenienced

At least we no longer have to hear about freedom being in Americans' DNA or whatever. Turns out we love to eat shit and bow to some bloated halfwit like any other people throughout history

just being straight up 100% serious that if you are cis you should have to either pass an oral exam on whipping girl or secure the signatures of 40 trans people, one of whom is julia serano, before being allowed to shove trans shit into your tv shit

apparently the new Netflix show Monster: The Ed Gein Story invented an "autogynephilia" backstory for their serial killer (because of course they did!). so time to re-up my collection of writings on this pseudoscientific zombie theory...

Bluesky is fun bc a Jewish person can post something like this and then a whole bunch of those exact kind of atheists all summon themselves to prove her point

Atheist proselytizers are the religious proselytizers I’m most likely to come into contact with and they’re just as annoying as all of the other ones I experience

And I think it is a dreadful shame to be training audiences to presume that popularity correlates to quality, because it poisons them against even considering smaller indie titles in the first place. After all, why bother? Current player count! Hell of a way to think about approaching any media.

And it's bare, surface-level criticism. Nobody doing this has to actually engage with what they're criticizing, it's never about how well those themes or characters are done, just that they exist. It's intellectually lazy, but it's just aesthetics they can point to without engaging any deeper.

Too many womens? *DING*
Woman in hijab? *DING*

Once you see it, it starts to bring into focus a lot of what these cringe crusaders complaints actually are, no matter how nonsensical, they're all playing at doing a Cinemasins for games. Gay characters? *DING* Story with environmental themes? *DING*

Fashy Cinemasins

That's what this is, the effect the proliferation of "anti-woke" youtube grifters have had on their audiences as a whole, stunting their ability to engage with media and training them to look for "DEI sins" to call out, atrophying their ability to enjoy the games they're playing.

it would probably be sorta hard for just anyone to do it *this well* because it requires you to actually be normal about trans people, but still it feels important to state for the record that WE ARE NOT HARD TO STAND UP FOR AND ANY OF THEM COULD DO IT.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

but since i’m not a ghoul who only cares about elections, the thing here that made me cry is that it seems to have a genuine “actually not only are trans people not a threat, they’re pretty amazing” vibe that i don’t think i’ve seen in a big campaign before & it isn’t a condescending “wow so brave.”

How the media are gaslighting trans people
"How the media are gaslighting trans people"
6 frame comic in two columns. on the left, Trump, Hegseth and Bondi are disparaging trans people and vowing to exterminate them. On the right, newspaper article with the same images of them, reporting what they said but with no mention of trans people.

BUT HEY!

THAT'S JUST A Segway to remind you that the FNAF creator/this movie's screenwriter, Scott Cawthon, donates the money he makes from FNAF stuff to far right politicians, many of whom are currently trying to make things worse for everyone, specifically trans people. Don't support this film.

1. Last night, 26 Senate Dems helped pass a NDAA containing a military trans sports and surgery ban and dropped demands for protections against US troop deployments in the bill.

It is the latest in the national fight over must-pass bills during the shutdown.

The bill passed by a wide margin in the Senate and will be the starting point for negotiations with the House, which contain more severe anti-trans riders.

...yeah, Steve, what *did* happen the last few times that the federal government had to intervene in 'sleepy Southern towns?' I'm sure they were thrilled, right?

I imagine he knows all of this, but in his maliciousness is hoping his audience doesn't think too hard about it.
