Across the country, women are dying of sepsis, losing organs, being arrested for miscarriages, and used as brain-dead incubators.

Corpses have more rights than women living under abortion bans.

What better moment to run a full court cultural press about how freedom isn’t that great anyway?

This whole thread is incredibly charming.
THREAD.

My parents' cat Bridget vanished. As the weeks dragged on they became ever more worried, so to distract himself my dad began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up at some of art & music's most important moments.

Because it’s not just Bari Weiss’ CBS asking this question—in the last few months, I’ve been approached by half a dozen different shows looking to ‘debate’ the same topic.

I even got a request from NPR-distributed “Open to Debate” to see if I’d weigh in on “Has Feminism Hurt Women?”

This is one part of what it looks like when the government has been taken over by a fascist movement that's trying to push out its reactionary vision of national rebirth—women & racial minorities purged from positions of authority & re-subordinated, etc—through all cultural & professional spaces

Great thread, of course, by @jessicavalenti.bsky.social on the malignancy of this frame..... "Why decline all these chances to defend feminism? Because to participate would be accepting the premise that our rights and humanity are up for debate in the first place."

Thank you for asking, and NO and we're far from done, and anything Bari Weiss decides to platform is probably failing women.

Years ago (maybe ten?) I was at a reading/Q and A with Jhumpa Lahiri and the interviewer asked her something — I forget what — and she replied, “I don’t accept the premise of your question,” & then clammed up, and they just moved on. I respected it so much and never forgot it.

Once you’ve conceded that it’s reasonable to ask whether women’s equality was a mistake, you’ve already lost.

Falsch. Man geht nicht in "Debatten" mit Leuten die gegen unser Grundgesetz stehen.

Die Union hat aus halbieren der AFD,verdoppeln gemacht.

Unser Kanzler beschimpft Leute die gegen rechts auf die Straße gehen als linke Spinner. Die Union ignoriert das GG und blockiert die Überprüfung der AFD.

That’s what these ‘debates’ are really about: framing old fashioned oppression as some kind of high-brow concern for women’s happiness.

You know what makes us happy? Bank accounts. Voting rights. The ability to leave a bad marriage and not have a miscarriage kill us.

That’s why conservatives are pouring millions intro trad-wife bullshit and birth control disinformation. They need young women to believe the erosion of their rights is a good thing, actually!

It’s not enough to oppress women—they want us ^grateful* for it. (We’re so much prettier when we smile.)

It all started in 1955 with a misprint in a Colorado newspaper and a call to Col. Harry Shoup's secret military hotline. Shoup played along with the tiny voice who called, and a tradition was born. From the NPR archives.

welcome to everyone who understands “did feminism fail women” “debate” is a bad faith waste of time, see also the “is sex work exploitative or empowering” “debate”

The person charged with enforcing the laws is an open lawbreaker, assisted by a team of open lawbreakers, backed by a Congressional majority indifferent to lawbreaking, supported by a Supreme Court that privileges them to break the law.

It has no legitimacy whatsoever.
The person charged with enforcing the laws is himself a law breaker. In such a state, do laws even have any legitimacy?

99% aller Züge kommen pünktlich. Ein Zug gilt als verspätet, wenn er mehr als 10 Sekunden Verspätung hat.
