There is nothing I love more than the domestic bliss of baking an unadorned cake for my husband Tom Selleck and our three beautiful Children of the Corn. I can't wait to watch them stuff this cake into their uncannily mature faces while Tom Selleck's pencil arms quake under the weight of his shotgun. Truly, this is best.

In my future one-party state, fat people will not be allowed to attend or participate in Renaissance Faires.

This legitimately needs to be in future literature textbooks to capture the Covid-19 Pandemic.

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

yes i agree there should be fewer people in the world

specifically ~500 fewer people

specifically the ~500 richest people in the world

otherwise no i’m not concerned about overpopulation

humanity isn’t a virus. capitalist profiteers & wealth hoarders are a virus. human beings are not a parasite. late stage capitalism is killing the planet, not regular people.

But what if you end up in the top 500

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

No.

No one accidentally becomes a billionaire. No one accidentally becomes one of the .01%. That sort of wealth doesn’t accumulate because you had a really good idea, or were really smart, or worked really hard. You know who becomes billionaires?

Capitalists who hoard profits 

Capitalists who evade taxes

Capitalists who underpay and abuse their workers

Capitalists who use money to buy political influence

and in turn use that to buy tax cuts, and lax regulations

Capitalists who value profit margins above consumer & societal well being. Capitalists who endanger their customers and their workers.

Capitalists who fight against unions and employee healthcare, 

Capitalists who become successful, who accumulate millions, and then consciously choose to use that wealth to pursue profit on a whole new, exponentially higher scale, at the cost of the societies in which they exist.

No one accidentally becomes a billionaire. And no one becomes a billionaire without choosing to do harm. 

You are not going to end up in the top 500. And if you did I would want nothing to do with it, or you.

I’m gonna say this as politely as I can but oh my god I wish people like this would shut up.

I’m as concerned about the planet as anyone should be but misinformation like this is misleading and dangerous, not to mention disrespectful in the current climate. it will regrettably take years for the planet to heal itself of the damage done to it in the name of human greed – it will not miraculously heal in a couple of weeks.

the canals of Venice are clearer not because of less pollution but because of less boat traffic stirring up sediment and dirt already in the water. it’s all sunk to the bottom and settled, resulting in apparently clearer water. the fish were always there. the dolphins are coming closer because lack of boat traffic means they can go hunt the fish easier.

any wild animals coming into the city are likely curious or looking for interesting food. they’re not ‘reclaiming’ anything; anyone who’s been up late at night and looked out their window would see similar things with nocturnal creatures. it’s just the daylight ones are now doing it, too.

while pollution has gone down in China thanks to lack of traffic and factory production, regrettably this will do nothing in regards to the multitude of other countries belching out pollution into the air. even if it did, the earth will sadly not heal from decades of abuse in a couple of weeks.

people are dying. this guilt-inducing insinuation that humans somehow deserve it, or this virus is a good thing, is uncharitable and cruel. especially when you consider that a vast majority of the people causing and enabling the abuse of the planet are the rich ruling class, and the everyday person – the kind of person most at risk of expsoure to this virus – has no say in it. we all already suffer from enough guilt in our daily lives thanks to oil executives pushing the idea that our drinking from plastic straws and watching Netflix is the problem; we don’t need pseudo-deep tweets telling us that we’re the real virus, too – especially not when the things tweets like this are implying are all wrong anyway.

This is why choice feminism is garbage. Women like Nikki need help escaping abuse, not to have their dangerous choices validated and masturbated to.
