One finding in sociological research is that in cultures that "mass produce" children by enslaving women, the value of any individual human life plummets. To the degree that a society grants humanity to women, the value of any individual life increases in direct correspondence.

Is there any research on whether physical or social scientists tend to be more or less “hopeful” about climate action as compared to each other? I have a theory…

"Hating your neighbors will kill them and you too."
The people spreading misinformation know exactly what they are doing. They don't care and they made sure that you won't care either. At least not until it's too late. White supremacy is a death cult and it isn't the only one. Hating your neighbors will kill them and you too.

People were arguing in my mentions today about whether the Earth is "round" when it's technically an irregular oblate spheroid and look "round" doesn't mean "absolutely perfect sphere" it means round. A soccer ball is round, a cantaloupe is round, a fluffy borb in winter is round, just go with it.

The both/and here is so important
Please hear me when I say that
1) these anti-medical woo birth movements have been a primary feeder into anti-vaxx eugenic movements
2) they pre-date the age of social media
3) they exist because we have not addressed medical sexism and specifically obstetric violence

Influencers made millions pushing ‘wild’ births – now the Free Birth Society is linked to baby deaths around the world

🧵
The Guardian’s investigation into the Free Birth Society is a clear example of a closed, high-risk counterpublic. It can be examined directly through the lens of disordered discourse described in my work.

One of the very many reasons why I have not a single ounce (not one) of respect for RFK Jr’s MAHA cult is that they are not just dismantling vaccination & issuing harmful dietary advice (eat more saturated fat!)—they’re also sickening us through spewing dangerous chemicals poisoning the environment
