[cryptotheism]

fun fact: the Mr. Bankston here is Mark Bankston, the same lawyer who absolutely ruined Alex Jones during the Sandy Hook trial.

[ex-libris-craux]

how in the fuck did the muskrat's attorney pass the bar

[ruffboi-mags]

Mark Bankston is gonna make me fucking SWOON.

[bemusedlybespectacled]

I don't think Mark can ever top "INDEED, MR. JONES, INDEED" and "AND THAT IS HOW I KNOW YOU LIED TO ME" from the first Sandy Hook trial in Texas (not to be confused with Chris Mattei, the attorney in the Connecticut trial), but this part

MR. SPIRO: Do you give these lectures at all of your depositions? MR. BANKSTON: I do, and you can watch them.

is ESPECIALLY hilarious to me having listened to multiple depositions Mark has had to take in the Sandy Hook case, where he has needed to lecture EVERY. SINGLE. ATTORNEY. at some point in the case about how they're violating Texas Rule XYZ, because they all, to a one, did something seriously ethically questionable during the deposition.

like, YOU CAN WATCH/LISTEN TO HIS DEPOS. HE DOES HAVE TO GIVE THOSE LECTURES EVERY TIME. IT'S NOT EVEN A JOKE.

[cal3ris]

is this gonna get me fired you think

[enbyfication]

im not saying we shouldn't be calling out hypocrisy but i do think it's important to be aware of what i call the Two Different Guys Fallacy. and that's that whenever you're thinking to yourself, oh how come X group claim they want this thing but also support that other incompatible thing. take a moment to stop and consider whether it could just be Two Different Guys that think each thing

generally speaking, the cooler and better your offline political activities are, the more important it becomes that you do not post about it on your personal social media acconts

The note inside a bullet.

B-17 bomber is riddled with German anti-aircraft fire but miraculously survives. Later they discover the explosive shells were all inert; sabotaged by Nazi slaves working in armament factories.

Inside one empty shell is a written note: it's all we can do for you now.

[gothlovingoth]

The most important part of all this is that these small acts of bravery and noncompliance cannot be known as long as the enemy still stands, and might never be known. Just because it doesn’t seem like anyone is doing anything doesn’t mean it’s true. The best malicious compliance or subtle sabotage is the one that’s never detected, but makes ravages nonetheless.

"there comes a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can't take part. You can't even passively take part. And you've got to throw your bodies upon the wheels and upon the gears. Upon the levers. Upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop!"

~Mario Savio

To finish the quote by Mario Savio:

"And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it -- that unless you're free the machine will be prevented from working at all!!!"

Hey all, while we're busy normalizing women with hairy legs, hairy armpits and bushy pubes, let's also normalize women with hairy upper lips, hairy chins, hairy side burns, hairy chests, and all the other places where women are supposedly magically hair-free.

[innerchildabortionclinic]

wish online communities discussing autism in women weren't like, doing their best to contribute to the false perception there's a distinct Autism For Boys and Autism For Girls, when the whole time it's just social enforcement of gender roles influencing behavior

[stjohnstarling]

One of the major dividing lines of our age is between those who think it's worthwhile to cooperate and work with other people, accepting their flaws and limitations, to build something larger than ourselves, and those who think everything is fundamentally hopeless and that other people are corrupt, degenerate, and suspect. And the latter is not conducive to having any kind of culture at all.

[malcolmschmitz]

The one thing C.S. Lewis said that I still categorically agree with is that every age has its prevailing - he calls it "sin", I'd rather call it a "failure mode"- and people will try to paint that sin's opposing virtue as a vice.

In an age where people are cruel, people will try to paint kindness as weakness. In an age where people are greedy, people will try to call frugality tacky.

... I think our time's failure mode, at least in America, is despair. And people sure are quick to paint hope as complacency.

[cthulhu-with-a-fez]

#'complacency' is close but not quite I think -- #-- the problem is that hope is seen as COLLUSION #if this world is so filthy and fucked as to be beyond redemption#then by engaging with it AT ALL -- regardless of what you are trying to achieve -- #-- then you are validating it. normalizing it. glorifying it even! #behaving in a way that suggests that the world DESERVES to exist #suggests the people in it DESERVE to live and have their situations improve #and well! that's pretty Problematic of you. #the only Correct way to regard the world is with complete and total nihilistic passivity. anything else makes you a filthy collaborator #salty sunday (via @mikkeneko)

Even in a post-capitalist, post-consumerist world, you still need to produce goods, as a result of this, you need factories because it is more effective to have a few people making a lot of clothes in a factory than every woman being forced to sit down and spin wool all day.

[queer-as-city-folk]

The issue with factories is poor wages, unsafe working conditions and environmental impact, all of which can be fixed through things like regulatory bodies and unions, the issue is not the fact that goods are no longer all made at home

[astra-the-dragon]

you can have a guild-owned, guild-run, sustainable and ethical small- to mid-size clothing factory. or laundromat. or kitchen. all of these once-domestic tasks can become industrialized without the capitalism and greed.

the factory isn't evil. it's a building full of machines and materials.

[aetherograph]

Likewise, automation is a good thing, because it keeps humans from doing tasks that humans do not like to do and which cause them harm. The evil is not the touchscreen for ordering your food, the evil is the owner of the quick-service restaurant hoarding all the wealth that restaurant generates and not giving it to the community. The evil is not the soda machine replacing the soda jerker, it's that the owner of the soda machine does not contribute to the community and capitalism saying that people must earn the right to live.

You have to completely rethink what "work" means for this to change. You have to redesign it so that it is based on what is needed in the community rather than what can be exploited. If we don't need a soda jerker anymore, she is free to pursue what she enjoys to do. Maybe that is blacksmithing, or glassblowing. Maybe it is sculpture or dancing. These things are always needed by every community. She is not "out of work" she is FREE TO PURSUE.
