Like just this whole solipsistic obsession w/fetishizing masculinity? Literally no woman i know is concerned w/the subject of femininity. Like, im sure like conservative women are probably to some extent but its not like an existential aspect of womanhood (anymore) to be concerned with femininity.

If you want to understand why rich guys are turning back to eugenics and recreating the rhetoric and theology of slavery, it’s because they know on some level this level of wealth inequality is unjustifiable bsky.app/profile/marl...

The difference between them and me and presumably you, is that you and I don't think that having no moral constraints is some kind of sophisticated strategy no one's ever thought of before. They do and think that's what separates them from the little people who are too dumb to think of it.

had occasion to observe earlier today that "i think we should prosecute everyone in the government who has committed a crime to the fullest extent of the law" is, in literal fact, very close to just proposing The Terror at this point

You know, this unexamined belief that there is something intrinsically worthy about paid employment, and that not working is some horrible thing that we must avoid at all costs, just annoys me. Not to mention, it is really telling to me that someone actually hasn't thought critically about 'work'.

when you “let your enemy keep making mistakes” as the apparent Labour strategy goes, supported by commentators et al, its fine as long as the mistakes are only cosmetic
when the issues are THIS bad, with such heavy impact on nzers, refusing to act makes THE MAIN OPPOSITION look overwhelmingly weak

I said this on @santitajackson.bsky.social's show this morning. They are PROUD of deporting millions of people. That's why the leadership of the Democratic Party will never defund ICE.
Note that Hillary says "without killing American citizens" - that's because she doesn't value immigrants lives.

Hillary Clinton: "More people were deported under my husband and Barack Obama without killing American citizens and without putting children into detention camps than were in the first Trump term or this first year of Trump's second term."
