Every trans person who says they'd rather not be socially murdered is an "activist."
Every blood-mouthed ghoul demanding our eradication is a "concerned citizen just asking questions."

God I'm so sick of how "Activist" is used to un-person trans people.

My modest proposal is that if you say "___ is here to stay" about any new technology, you should be allowed to live *but* you have to be exiled to the forest for at least 50 years.

Would this be the same boomers who spent the last two years calling Gen Z college students "Hamas" for protesting a genocide and telling them they deserved to get their heads cracked by cops?

Only watched one episode. Had some fictional fantasy letters to write. But that one episode is dense and pretty. Lot of moving parts and mysteries.

Narrator: That is not the entire purpose of science.
“The entire purpose of science is to search for existential truths,” Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told me. “It’s not subjective. It should be objective. I believe science is a place where you can find unity if you can get a conversation going.” www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...
Why Is Robert F. Kennedy Jr. So Convinced He’s Right?

Do not let Len Burns do Hip Hop, Jesus Christ. He would white lib that shit up so much.
I figure Ken Burns has one, maybe two big documentary series in him before he fully retires. What do you think they should be? My votes include Football, Hip-Hop, World War 1, Reconstruction (though Skip Gates did this one well), Iraq/Afghanistan, 19th Century Expansionism.

After years of useless posture advice ("imagine a string pulling you up"???), the only technique that's ever worked for me is to imagine there are laser beams coming out of your nipples and aim for people's heads. It works, and people cannot tell you're doing it

I'm not convinced that this supposed archetype is a thing that anyone has ever actually said
Archetypal example is “capitalism ground me down so I quit my job and set up a small business so that I’m my own boss”. You didn’t dislike capitalism! You disliked authority!

But the issue that we have is that capitalism doesn't coordinate effort to ensure a better outcome for all, we're not all getting up at 7am to ensure everyone is healthy, well fed and able to enjoy their life, we're getting up at 7am to work the feedslop machine at the Torment Nexus
“Capitalism forces you to wake up at 7am against your body’s natural rhythms” no that’s Taylorism and if you don’t like living in a society that coordinates effort to ensure a better outcome for all then I don’t think you’ll love the alternatives
