me when a fictional woman decides not to get an abortion
When I was in elementary school, my teacher would pair me with the most disobedient and loud boys in class as a way to discipline them via my good example. I would hush them, explain things to them, beat them occasionally - I didn’t like sitting with them so, naturally, a lot of my energy went into trying to make these boys somewhat tolerable. I was angry, irritated, depressed, always distracted - I was sitting in close proximity to not one but three boys, quite far from my girlfriends. My own school performance went down. Though I was still A+ in liberal arts, I’ve got my first 2 in mathematics (on a 1-10 numerical scale).
I understand this reads as a story about educational abuse towards girls mostly, but I think the situation I described might also mirror heterosexual marriage as a system that helps government regulate men and save up financial and social resources at the expense of women.
From early childhood, we are taught to take an active role in raising boys and monitoring their behaviour - to prepare us for marriage, where we will be responsible for how well a man is adapted in society that raised him unadaptable in the first place. In the same extent the government is interested in plugging gaps in important social spheres with women's unpaid labor (the majority of volunteers and social workers are women), it is interested in heterosexual marriage as an institution that is supposed to discourage men from engaging in activities that have negative social consequences - gambling, alcoholism, crime, and unemployment - through women’s positive influence. Patriarchy teaches boys cruelty, disobedience, lack of empathy and social awareness - all the qualities that are detrimental to a functional well-organised society, and simultaneously relies on women to contain these qualities - responsibility first carried out by mother to be consequently passed on to wife.
Society knows how destructive men are and it wants women to take over the burden of keeping them in check. The price it “pays” is male domestic violence in marriages, but with criminal system being misogynistic as it is, violence against women is much cheaper for the government, so the price is really insignificant.
not to talk about the hp show but it's wild to me that jkr was like publicly and explicitly like "the last set of child actors have denounced my bigotry, I want a new set of child actors to groom. create a television program so I can have new children" and everyone was just like ok joanne! :) here's your new children! :)
listen to me. stop doomscrolling. put down your phone. you need to get your shit together. take an edible right now. a big one. take a big edible immediately. now go turn on the scariest movie you can think of and get comfortable. got all that? good. this will be good for your mindfulness and cognitive behavior.
tl;dr: all "algorithmically" pushed stuff on a newsfeed is mostly ads. nothing that's really surprising form this vulture article, but it is dismal and makes me grateful for one website where you only see things from people you follow WITHOUT horrible short-form video content
What if every viral song, movie, meme, influencer, and celebrity drama in recent memory was the result of a stealth marketing campaign?
