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?

one note for the "optics" amateur consultant crowd: "abolish ice" is actually the calibrated negotiating stalking horse because we actually cannot tolerate a "department of homeland security" in a multicultural secular democracy

People must break these habits.
Why do you want to immerse yourself in their worldviews?
Why do you want to spread their rhetoric because regardless of your epic quip you are spreading their thoughts and messages.
Break these patterns. Propping them up gives them more power regardless of tone.

honestly if your response to seeing something remotely progressive is to immediately start imagining how angry the righoids must be there's something broken in you that needs fixing

nobody has adequately explained to me why i should care even a little about birthrates
it frankly is kind of taboo to discuss these questions on the left, but this piece also doesn't get into the actual most promising policy ideas (limiting smartphone and social media use to the greatest possible extent) www.npr.org/2026/01/12/n...
As birthrates tumble, some progressives say the left needs to offer ideas and solutions
The US and other countries face aging, shrinking populations. Conservatives have shaped debate over the issue. Some liberals say it's time for progressives to weigh in.

Do not let big name orgs seize this moment to control your reaction as they try to quell your righteous anger. They have no authority to dictate what a “proper” response is. That fucking gestapo pig murdered an innocent person in broad daylight, and the government is trying to cover it up. Be angry.

Reclassifying the urgency of the first stage of fundraising to high after doing some calculations. Any amount appreciated alliteratively.
Let's start 2026 with a hopeful campaign!
As traditionally sales lag in January and also France turns out to be expensive I'm setting the goal at 3500. At least half of that is moderately urgent!
Art: random, but theming it Mediterranean!
Paypal in bio, if you're European: bank info in the DMs!

FGC take note, it is actually possible to make your community less toxic if you put in the work
The extent to which Games Done Quick has helped to steer the larger speedrunning community - one of the most hardcore video game enthusiast subcultures there is - into becoming something so welcoming, inclusive and supportive astonishes me
