"basic feminist aspirations would require a radical overhaul of society and the worldwide reactionary backlash is driven in large part by the gains of feminism in the last 60 years"
Okay so the only problem with metoo was it didnt go far enough, in light of the file drop
Though tbh now i think a lot of the stuff that people claimed was too far especially what was associated with MeToo now seems super reasonable as the MeToo reaction explicitly morphs into a pro-rape and pro-harassment faction

I'll bite cuz I think it's important to have at least some criticisms circulate that aren't from reactionary trash.

The most obvious exemplar was that internet social justice turned language policing into a status game disconnected from goals or consequences -- so people would *invent* etymologies.
maybe another way to frame it: is there any part or tactic of the 10s social justice movements that failed to achieve their goals, and participants need to reconsider, or all the shortcomings and missteps due to environmental conditions that have now changed?

If you see this, don't participate. It's a rigged study by Lisa Littman and unethical researcher J. Michael Bailey meant to undermine access to care. Spread the word.

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

For those of you that still have to interface with with conservative-leaning or centrist folks:

If ICE can justify executing you by claiming you were "armed" (not brandishing, not drawing) then your "right to bear arms" is actively under siege.

Not seeing a lot of counter evidence lately of my view that American conservatives don’t believe in anything concrete, but are driven mainly by domination fantasies and bigotry.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Saying there must be trials isn't just an emotive aspiration.

Congress can:
- Create a new court (complying w/ 6A jury vicinage)
- Give it jurisdiction over defined category of crimes
- Also create dedicated prosecutors for the same
- Strip SCOTUS of appellate jurisdiction

It can be done.

I'll say yet again: Trump & his party do something virtually every day that constitutes a more violent & alarming suppression of speech than anything that happened during the entire alleged tyranny of woke. Every day. Yet the entire Free Spech army has just vanished into mist.
I wrote on the shameful situation re: the recession of a deanship to Emily Suski at the University of Arkansas Law. What was the reason? Prof. Suski signed an amicus brief supporting trans rights. The Arkansas legislators admitted that was it! Horrible outcome. ballsandstrikes.org/legal-cultur...

The United States has many well-staffed "pro democracy" organizations. I know people who work in these organizations and I do, in fact, think quite highly of them.

These organizations are wholly unfit for the work of the present moment because they are not adversarial, hostile entities.

We all just saw about six different angles of ICE murdering a guy who himself was filming them, but sure, you think body cameras will make all the difference.

How stupid do they think we are?
Republicans have blocked every proposal to rein in ICE, but they're happy to let Democrats spend your tax money to equip ICE mercenaries with body cameras. Why? Because they know body cams won't restrain ICE any more than they do cops:

Don't try to reform ICE. Abolish them.

Continuously depressing as hell that all the pro-"intellectual property" monsters are making cultural inroads by latching onto anti-LLM momentum.

If you want to destroy the tech giants, destroy the intellectual property regime they critically depend upon. "Steal" more information, not less.
We're not anti-tech, we're anti-theft. If the future of “innovation” depends on stealing creators’ work without asking or paying, that’s not progress - it's stealing, and we shouldn’t accept it. #StealingIsntInnovation www.stealingisntinnovation.com/

Every time liberals refer to fascists' embrace of law (violent threats to enslave others) as "anarchy" (the total absence of such domination), they're not just lying to themselves about what law constitutes, but announcing that they will ruthlessly murder us and call it fighting fascism.
We’re going to go through the whole explanation of what anarchy is again, aren't we?

I’ve said it before but: our ability to breathe freely is brand new and hard won. The people who want to destroy us are a coughing baby vs nuclear bomb compared to the militancy with which we will not be dragged backwards. Anarchism tells us: smaller numbers don’t mean we are bound to lose.

I don't want to hear any bullshit talk of restoring norms when this is over. We're doing a redux of either Reconstruction or Nuremberg.
ICE detain yet another minor child—chase him down his own street and tackle him to pavement.

"I am legal! I am legal!" he cries over and over in Spanish.

Agent pins the boy down in snow—he desperately tries to keep his exposed hands from freezing at -25°F wind chill temperature.
