Men are socialized to hate women. They are told from a small age the worst thing they can do is “cry like a girl, or throw like a girl or act like a girl.” Then they grow up associating women & girls with shame. And that is how this misogyny breeds. It is patriarchal conditioning from the get-go.

Too few have too much.
Too many have not enough.
Great wealth is great power to preserve their great wealth at the expense of others.
History shows that powerful oligarchs are out of touch, incompetent, make self-serving decisions, and this results in collapse and chaos.

“Animals“
So Trump called the DC shooter of the National Guard soldiers.
This is Misothery— rhymes with misogyny, hatred and contempt for other animals.
It’s time to quit insulting our Animal cousins for bad things done by bad human beings.

I believe the Democratic Party has been moving toward the money and away from the people.
I think this is both unethical & reduces the chance of winning elections.

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed.
Getting big money out of politics.
Strengthening unions and fighting for higher wages.
Medicare for all, paid family leave, universal childcare...
This is the progressive populist agenda we need in America.

One last thing: If AOC runs against Schumer, she will win.
Democrats need to make a hard left turn.
Mamdani has proven it is time.
The people of the United States are ready for politicians who will not just say they'lll fight for them, but will actually do so once elected.

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

Corporations and foreign lobbies are the biggest contributors to our elections but fund zero of our actual benefits. So they buy our elections and then we pay for all of the infrastructure and policies which benefit them, almost exclusively. We are a highly oppressed society. It’s sad as fuck.

The rise of so many far-right authoritarian leaders these days is because a vibe of fear creeps like fog around the world.
People sense — without being even moderately informed— that we are killing the living world with our madness.

As mammals, we are what biologists call “social animals“. We have an instinct for empathy. It makes us feel for each other.
It spills over to our kin—other animals. We are horrified (psychopaths excepted) by cruelty and suffering.
So we hide slaughterhouses.

About 5 million years ago. We became more human than ape.
Compress that into a 24-hour time scale.
We became farmers about three minutes ago
We became fossil-fueled industrial humans about four seconds ago.
We became digital/Internet/computerized humans a split second ago.
So who we are?
