No, critical thinking is not «problem-solving».

Quickly, I learned that this kind of masculinity was a scam that was being used to control me, steal my joy, and my freedom on top of humiliating and oppressing women. No thanks.
So many men go through life like that. You can play poker because it's right-coded, you can't enjoy fruity alcoholic drinks because they're women-coded, you can't lick an ice cream cone because it's gay-coded. All day, every day, choosing and judging things based on coding for narrow norms.

The nonviolent moment was *not* peaceful.

The point was to draw out state violence, and be willing to face batons, water cannons, jail, and worse.

And Martin Luther King still got shot in the head— other civil rights leaders assassinated.

And now, civil rights progress is being rolled back.
retaliating tooth-tooth when bigots bring violence feels good in the moment

strategic non-violent civil disobedience wins in long term👇🏼

certainly do what you need to do in an individual encounter

I’m talking more about how to win in long term & end this madness

One central lesson of 1960s civil rights protests is that activists can “dramatize injustice” through strategic “narrative construction,” essentially creating compelling stories in the media with clear heroes and villains. More in this thread: bsky.app/profile/owas...
