"Crying girls will make you rich."

That's the actual pitch from a marketer selling packages of emotional videos that brands use to flood TikTok with undisclosed ads.

I just published an investigation into industrial UGC campaigns. What I found is troubling. 🧵 indicator.media/p/crying-gir...

Note to the media:

Any so called 'support group' for parents of trans kids that advocates anything other than unconditionally supporting their child is not actually a 'support group for parents of trans kids' but a 'support group for abusers of trans kids'.

Don't sanitise their bigotry.

men are the ruling class of patriarchy. chomsky can be seduced by the capitalist ruling class because he wants patriarchy to be upheld.

yea sorry, but this paragraph is also shit, because it reduces “the ruling class” to “capitalists”, and omitting what chomsky himself said about the abuse of women. this is not only about capitalism, it is also about patriarchy. chomsky wasn’t just seduced by the ruling class, he is a man.
This is the definitive point by Chris Hedges, re: Noam Chomsky and Epstein. Chomsky's entire value as a public intellectual is to know what people like Epstein are up to and why. Him feigning ignorance is absurd, and if it were true it would undermine the rest of his career.

I can’t believe I am forced every day to read class reductionist analysis about -sexual exploitation-, you can’t even invent a theoretically more unambiguously patriarchal type of violence.

Benefits of the EU countries I've worked in so far (🇩🇪 & 🇦🇹):
- better salary
- better healthcare
- better pension
- higher standard of living
- cheaper rent
- more access to research funding
- *significantly* more trans friendly

I have basically no reason to move back to the UK. 🤷‍♀️
*raises hand* this is me! I will probably never move back to the UK given how awful the research funding situation is.

Also, prohibitive immigration rules would make it difficult and expensive for my (EU) partner to move there, adding another financial disincentive on ever returning.
UK could ‘lose generation of scientists’ with cuts to projects and research facilities
