this might strike you as radical but I think omelas should not build a whole society’s prosperity on the suffering of a child.
furthermore, I think it is not enough to walk away from omelas, I think you have a moral responsibility to take the child with you.

“There will still be assholes in communism” nobody said there wouldn’t be. But they’ll be living in an apartment like everyone else. Using the same healthcare system. And not have a trillion dollars of private capital. I don’t care if they are rude

when you realize every human being on earth is at least a bit of a hypocrite because there is always a contradiction between desire and action then you'll be gentler with yourself and others in knowing that the main thing is movement of the trajectory towards resolution and new contradiction

I thought patriarchal conservatives believed in their incorrect version of "survival of the fittest" so what exactly is the problem here?

If you're not winning by your own eugenical rules you should be willing to accept the logical consequences of that as stated by your own belief systems, no?

just like how "wokeness" did not go far enough whatsoever, the issue was that metoo did not go far enough whatsoever
I keep thinking again, in light of the latest Epstein files dump, about how MeToo “went too far.”

what if I told you that child abuse and unthinking deference to the patriarch ARE "family values"
buddy the catholic church has had CSA scandals and has talked queer kids into suicide while proclaiming family values for centuries, that this isn’t getting the satanic panic treatment is because christianity, patriarchy, the nuclear family and child abuse are all incredibly linked.

Los muertos no dejan "un hueco difícil de llenar". Los huecos de los muertos no se llenan. Dejan un vacío y la familia aprende a vivir con ese hueco que se llama "ya nunca". Ya nunca pasearemos juntos. Ya nunca volverá tu hermano. Ya nunca abrazarás a tu amiga. Ya nunca porque solo hay un hueco.

ICE Agents & other police are not workers. All cops are class traitors who have sold their souls to the oligarchy.

Law enforcement protects private property & profits, not people. This is why so many call them pigs.

Police unions are nothing more than state-sponsored extortion rackets.

Brianna Ghey was targeted by classmates who knew her offline. Online, she made friends and a community, and was making content to help other trans kids like her.

This is a grieving mother pushing for legislation that would have further isolated her trans child, that is supported by transphobes.

i posted a thread on this earlier but i simply don't buy this explanation has the explanatory power people claim it does both because HR does have scenes of casual misogyny and homophobia as part of its drama and because the reason these exist is in part to establish a relatability to the audience
I spoke to women (and one man) about what they find so hot about Heated Rivalry.

"The main reason I read MM is I just absolutely cannot stand reading or watching women suffer at the hands of men – in any way, big or small, anymore... We, as women, can just watch this and relax.”
Women are feral for Heated Rivalry. What does that say about men?

Es que me toca los cojones, porque me parece algo muy elemental.

Y no entenderlo a la primera, da muy mal rollo. Es un nivel de incomprensión muy peligroso.

Es como eso de que los niños deben besar o ser besados por familiares sí o sí, aunque ellos no quieran. Vaya educación les damos.

The answer to any 'how did this slop make gazillions at the box office?' is usually that it's some vacuous family-friendly thing parents can take their children to see. That's it.

A lot of people asked me today about what makes something “reactionary” or what a “reactionary” position would consist of so i might write up something about that from a Marxist perspective.

If you think public health policy/ advice should be

“You don’t need testing if you’re sexually active and you’re super duper sure your partner wouldn’t cheat on you”

Instead of

“Sexually active people should get tested regularly”

You are reactionary
