This isn't dissonance by the way, it's perfectly logical to the fascist view. The state must always be ready to obliterate those it sees as enemies, but the people are responsible for their own well being. This is because the "State" is of course run by the ruling class, who in the heirarchical worldview are inherently superior and must be protected. The "people" are just the incidental by product of finding out who is (and by extension isn't) part of the in group. The logical conclusion of this is an industrial system where people, in order to save themselves, and facilitate their own well being, "join up." I'm going to say this out loud because it seems that not a lot of people have heard it, the armed forces of a society should not be a job. The defense of a people should only arise in the event that it is needed, and only by the people themselves. The very idea of a standing formal military is authoritarian.

This makes me choke up every time. The unexpected appreciation they show her. Most of her graduating class don’t know she’s the slayer or even what a slayer is, but they do know that Buffy has saved their lives, or at least tried to, many times over the last three years and they wanted to thank her for it and I can’t even…

this halloween season, please remember that nosferatu (1922) is an allegory for the ‘invasion’ of jewish immigrants. count orlok is an antisemitic caricature, and his image in the movie is quite literally responsible for anti-jewish nazi propaganda. the movie itself is about jews perversing and defiling western culture, assaulting gentile women, etc. etc. please, please don’t ignore the potent antisemitism in the movie.

[killingmoon]

just to emphasize: nosferatu directly impacted nazi propaganda. the editor of an antisemitic nazi newspaper watched nosferatu and was so struck by the image of count orlok that he based his anti-jewish cartoons off of him. nosferatu is LITERALLY responsible for a good portion of anti-jewish caricatures.

you should probably reblog this, esp if you aren’t jewish

Y’all’re wild if you think it’s taking the “low road” to wish misfortune on Trump.

Like, we get it. Coronavirus is serious. It’s deadly. You never know what may happen when someone gets it. But I would like to remind you all that the best people can do is *wish* misfortune on Trump.

Why can we only wish?

It is highly unlikely that he will die.

Because He will still have the greatest doctors at his disposal.

He will still have the best access to to medical care and any vaccines that arise.

He will still collect salary as he quarantine and can’t effectively go to work.

But you know who CAN’T do those things?

The 200k+ Americans who needlessly died due to lack of diligence on his part. Never forget that Trump had intel MONTHS before the American people knew about coronavirus and still did shit all to prepare his country for it.

The president of the United States got coronavirus not even days after he ordered states to fully reopen, mocked those who wears masks at the CDC’s “recommendation”, and spent months on a slander campaign convincing the American people it was all a hoax and that the virus wasn’t as severe as it was.

So yes, I am not surprised when people wish misfortune on the President. He had this coming for months now.

if you ever thought seriously for two minutes about the type of person likely to seek employment at a concentration camp, this would not surprise you

[neontologist-deactivated2020100]

here's another two minute brain puzzler: why would ICE, which doesn't even give out toothbrushes, be so eager to send female prisoners to a doctor - and pay out surgery money - to make it so that they can never get pregnant? what would a pregnancy imply, under these circumstances?

[moderatelysedated-deactivated20]

we saw what happened at Abu Ghraib and what those kind of ppl are capable of

[hugewoman]

To be perfectly explicitly clear to anyone who doesn’t immediately get it, it’s indicative that the male wardens and jailers of unlawfully and inhumanely detained women of color have been raping them en masse

This conclusion is being drawn here for multiple reasons, but these are the points I connected mentally while reading about this:

The majority of these women have been incarcerated long enough that they wouldn’t be able to be pregnant at this point if it hadn’t been at the hands of their captors

A nurse at a Georgia camp recently blew the whistle that a doctor is performing hysterectomies on nearly every female inmate he sees, she even called him “the uterus collector” and said it was like he was experimenting

Sterile women can’t get pregnant, ICE agents can therefore rape them without fear of evidence proving their actions, thus preying on this pool of women they have power and authority over with almost tota impunity

Obviously racism is also an issue here, white supremecists are highly motivated to commit acts of genocide like this even without the incentive of sexual access to vulnerable women that they can abuse, brutalize, and degrade.

But there’s a very clear picture painted here, and the sexual violence these detained women are facing is undeniably inextricably tied to the fact that they are now being forcibly sterilized

[hositrugun]

The Uncle Ben logo is a real guy. He wasn’t named Ben. He was a waiter at s restaraunt some Ad Guy frequented, and they used his image for the brand without ever letting him see a penny of it. I don’t know whether the “uncle” part of his name is a slavery theowback like this person said, but that information wouldnae surprise me. Either way it’s an insanely fucked up story.

not to be fake deep but like average poor kids deserve affordable higher education too lmao. we shouldn’t be expected to get a perfect ACT, work 40 hours a week, do another 20 hours of extra circulars, be on the honor roll, take only AP classes, have a 4.5 GPA just to have a CHANCE at being able to afford college. esp when avrage rich kids can go wherever the fuck they want with a subpar GPA and test scores. 

[coldasyou]

Hope all the dicks who commented about how they don’t want average people in higher education read about this college admissions scandal. You have average rich kids getting into the most competitive colleges in the country through explicit bribery (not even gonna get into how many more are able to get in through more discret means and just simple classism in the admissions process) meanwhile qualified poor students often can’t even afford to go to college but yeah great meritocracy we got here.

[ID: Tweet by Stacey @KeyDecision1 that reads: If you make $200,000 a year, that is $3,846.15 a week

Let me repeat: the lowest paid congress member makes $3,846 A Week

But they squabble over giving people an extra $600 or $1,200

$3,846 a week

$15,384 a month. Seniors live on that amount for a year

it’s inter esting how the same ppl that r like eat the rich!!! for the most part want to live in a big city like nyc or la buuuut it’s literally capitalism at its finest like truly...... there is no better depiction of capitalism than a giant city full of luxe / advertisements..,, & it’s so damaging and problematic to avoid small towns bc they will just get lessss and lesss diverse and more problematic over time versus if ppl actually started moving to smaller towns it would be a better fight against capitalism as well as..,..normalizing like. a life of simplicity rather than forging a glamourous lifestyle in major cities that literally thrive and enforce capitalism.... like it’s so contradictory and weird 2 me .... like all that desire is rly nothing more than capitalist propaganda .....making everyone’s life worse? and seemingly less fulfilling in the eyes of a capitalist society ? which is the antithesis of the fight against it? idk

[pikasamurai22]

I want nothing more to live in a smaller city and have a house in the woods thats isn't completly disconnected from formers markets and other local businesses!
