If people put a tenth of the effort into locating and buying from union companies as they do into whining online about how everything is rigged against us and we're basically the poorest people in the entire world and there's simply nothing we can do about it because The Elites would never allow anything to improve, the labor movement would be in a MUCH better place
I'm really glad you brought this up because the wave of absolute, unmitigated, brazen antisemitism I've seen in normie spaces ever since the Epstein files dropped has been staggering.
I'm against the "the elites are oppressing us!" framing for two reasons. One, like you say, is that it's perpetually one small step away from becoming "(((the elites))) are oppressing us!" And you don't have control over if and when that happens. You think Nazis aren't taking advantage of that framing? Slipping into progressive/normie spaces and "just asking questions" about this group of elites? Taking people like Epstein and using them as proof that Jewish people were conspiring against us all along? Dropping Nazi dog-whistles into the conversation to signal to other Nazis that this is a safe space?
If you've already primed people to agree that a small group of elites is shadow-ruling the country, you've primed people for antisemitism.
But even if you could completely remove antisemitism from the equation - you can't, but let's pretend - the constant waves of despair I see from people saying "nothing ever changes, nothing ever gets better, we're all under the boot of the oligarchs and there's nothing we can do about it" is both demoralizing and completely untrue.
People who insist that women, gay people, racial minorities, disabled people, etc., have not made any strides since the US was founded are either lying to you or too stupid to be speaking on this subject. You can acknowledge that injustice and discrimination is still deeply-rooted in our society while also acknowledging that decades and centuries of incremental legislation, organizing, and activism have vastly improved the lives of marginalized people.
If your pitch about why society is bad is basically "things suck, they'll always suck, there's nothing we can do about it", why on earth would I join your movement? YOU don't even sound like you believe in it! If you insist that "the elites" will never let us make real progress, then why would I even try? If you insist that incrementalism doesn't work and only violent revolution can free us, I'm not going to think "huh, I guess we gotta revolt", I'm gonna think "well a revolution isn't gonna happen, so I guess I'll stop paying attention to this".
And frankly, I think it's wildly offensive to the people who spent their lives desperately fighting for the progress that lets me live as myself to insist that they didn't actually accomplish anything because nothing has ever gotten better.
Stop making space for antisemites, stop capitulating in advance, stop ascribing god-like powers to rich people. Stop dooming, start organizing!

alright I've got to do some quick math to explain attitudes towards AI to my boss.
we're looking to create an AI policy, and when we were talking about this, my boss (older millennial) was genuinely shocked to hear that younger people do not (seem) to view AI positively (a la the recent commencement speakers being booed)
please rb for larger sample size!
Question 1/3
What is your age, and do you feel AI is a net positive or net negative in our lives today?
under 18, AI is a net positive
under 18, AI is a net negative
18-29, AI is a net positive
18-29, AI is a net negative
30-45, AI is a net positive
30-45, AI is a net negative
46-60, AI is a net positive
46-60, AI is a net negative
over 60, AI is a net postive
over 60, AI is a net negative
Question 2/3
How often do you visit or interact with museums/archives (whether in person or online)?
Frequently (multiple times per month)
Often (multiple times per year)
Occasionally (a couple times per year)
Rarely (once every couple of years)
Never :(
Question 3/3
If you saw a museum was using AI in exhibits, marketing, research, etc., would you be more or less inclined to visit that museum?
under 18, more inclined
under 18, less inclined
18-29, more inclined
18-29, less inclined
30-45, more inclined
30-45, less inclined
46-60, more inclined
46-60, less inclined
over 60, more inclined
over 60, less inclined
Thank you for helping with this data collection. Please rb for as big a sample as possible!

Spin the wheel. Now, imagine you're on a first date with someone who says they`re a [result]. How does this affect the odds of a second date?
100% guarantee I'll want a second date
It's significantly more likely
The odds don't change
It's significantly less likely
There wont be a second date. Absolutely not

i understand that it's unreasonable to expect a band on world tour to play in every country in the world but i do think they should only be allowed to call it a world tour if they play in every continent. we need to make it embarrassing to say world tour and then not even step foot in africa
In 2026, the chicest thing a gay actor can do is never explicitly come out as gay but also make it abundantly clear that he is. Coming out is too modern. Staying closeted is too old fashioned. But this method merges contemporary freedom with Old Hollywood glamour and allure, and it weeds out the dumbest people who truly don’t get it. I call it the Pascal Method.
Taylor Swift does this
no she doesn’t
You clearly don't go here or to queer history and signaling, or both, enough to have this conversation and I'm not going to explain it to you. You could have asked questions, you could have done even a modicum of research. You didn't and you made yourself look ignorant. Goodbye.

I'm just saying, if you're going to worldbuild magic being a "raw, primal force, akin to and interweaving with nature itself" you gotta explain to me why animals don't use it
I know the normal answer is "they just aren't smart enough for it" but idk I've seen enough media where a character uses a spell in a moment of brain-off panic ilI feel like animals could probably stumble into a spell or two like, accidentally
Also how funny would it be to see a completely normal regular bear cast magic missile outta nowhere
Also there is no way ravens wouldn't figure out spells, tbh
They're smart fuckin birds, I believe in them
Either through observing or just figuring shit out ravens could 100% learn how to cast spells I'm sure of it
Dogs can also cast Magic Missile but every time they do the projectile is shaped like a bone or a stick and they chase after it
group of wizards who ask this in-universe, and after extensive study learn to their surprise that animals are casting spells all the time, just that their magic is so fundamental as to be unrecognizable to humans. turns out the only reason acorns grow on trees is because squirrels keep wishing for them.
When a species becomes extinct humans have to figure out what kind of magic they were doing to keep the ecosystem from becoming out of balance
