I’m not even quite as anti-car as some folk, but yeah, there is no good reason for cars to be this goddamn huge and dangerous, other than an individualistic arms race with all the other people who think they need a big car to protect them from big cars. Ban them.
SUVs and big Utes "are 44 per cent more likely to kill an adult pedestrian or cyclist in a crash compared with a sedan, and 82 per cent more likely to kill a child" www.theage.com.au/national/vic...
Pedestrian fatalities reach 17-year-high. This trend could be why
Fifty-one pedestrians had been killed on the state’s roads this year as of Saturday – the most in any calendar year since 2008.

The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%.

The Trump administration put billionaires, giant corporations and their profits first this year, while working people struggled to make ends meet.

“it is illegal for you not to like me”
This is the logical and inevitable conclusion of the last decade of elite media "free speech" discourse.

Confirmation that the New York Times has changed their internal style guide to cease using the term "gender affirming care" and instead use the term "gender related care."
I asked around and this does appear to be a deliberate style change. It wasn’t announced to staff, but contentious style changes often aren’t. They’re just imposed by the standards desk when they review a story. (Take that for what it is) This desk btw is run by Patrick Healy, no friend of trans ppl

You can't call yourself a good person when your job necessarily entails threatening & inflicting violence on vulnerable people, all to maintain a fundamentally unjust social order.

Why do people go hungry when there's stores full of food that they could go in & take? Why do people sleep outside when there's empty homes & shelter for them to sleep inside? Who prevents them from doing so or locks them up for attempting it? That's why all cops are bastards. They uphold inequity.

The BBC is really showing its arse with its editorial guidelines recommending the use of a pseudoscientific dogwhistle in reporting that mentions trans people.
It's important that they're not allowed to continue using fake-scientific insults in peace.

Calling out a fascist for taking a hypocritical position is easy. It's also a complete waste of time. Fascist rhetoric is aesthetics— pathos, never logos.
You'll never get anywhere pointing out a fascist's hypocrisy. Fascism is not to be debated, it's to be smashed. Get comfortable using power.
