I just watched a video of an average sized child picking a physical fight with a grown man. He wasn't an abnormally large child who's a wrestling or boxing prodigy. He was just a small child picking a fight that he couldn't possibly think he could win.

Comments were full of dipshits saying that the child has no consequences at home and is allowed to get away with everything.

It's much more likely that the child sees violent confrontation with someone much larger than him as normal and doesn't know anything else.

It's much more likely that the child is accustomed to violent confrontation with someone much larger than him and therefore no longer sees the possibility of that happening as a deterrent.

It wasn't Harren, Arya wanted to say, it was me. She had killed Chiswyck with a whisper, and she would kill two more before she was through. I'm the ghost in Harrenhal, she thought. And that night, there was one less name to hate. — A Clash of Kings - Arya VII

"Comparing ICE to Nazis is offensive to victims of Nazis."

No, it isn't. Comparing temporary covid restrictions or "socialism" to Nazis is offensive to victims of Nazis.

But comparing ICE to Nazis is accurate. The best thing you can do for victims of Nazis is to prevent it from happening again. And it's happening again.

We're at the "JK Rowling is personally funding litigation to try and destroy AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL" stage of rabid UK terf brain.

Tldr Amnesty International, global human rights organisation, published a report called 'A growing threat: the anti-rights movement in the UK'. In it is detailed, amongst others, a whole bunch of transphobic groups and organisations, including Beira's Place, JK Rowling's trans exclusionary sexual violence support service. JK Rowling threw a shit fit and got Amnesty to take the report down by threatening libel. This was obviously not enough, because you can't appease a fascist, so now she's going to bankroll a bunch of lawsuits anyway through the JK Rowling Women's Fund.*

You can read an archived version of the report here, please save it and share it.

*Not so friendly reminder there is no way to engage in the wizard books without enabling this shit.
