Hiatus

Just letting y'all know that I'm logging off for a while, being stuck at home unable to do anything to help with this crap corona situation + constantly seeing negative news on here is draining.

Take care comrades.

Since I have child labor discourse (cannot believe this exists) on my dash again I just want to state that the existence of child labor is a moral failing wherever it exists. Any society that doesn't take pains to ensure that children are not economically forced into a factory is in a jeopardized moral standing. That is all.

All k9 dogs are abused hands down if you post any pro k9 stuff on my dash you’re unfollowed I don’t care if we’ve been mutuals for years, you can claim to be anti-cop or a leftist or whatever but if you post k9 dogs with like “a good doggo! A good boy!” fuck off, if I lose followers over this then good riddance

It’s ALSO worth saying that police dogs serve a significant role in worsening police brutality. A dog trained to attack a human will maim them. A cop looses a police dog on someone, and that person is expected to peacefully cooperate while a dog is trying to tear their limbs off. It is very easy for those massive wounds to get infected. It is an absurd amount of violence. And beyond the initial attack, the fact that a “poor sweet innocent doggo” did this is used to excuse that brutality in court. Especially if the victim, panicking in the moment, lashed out at the dog. As this website has demonstrated many times, majority-white juries have more sympathies for injured dogs than the people of color who are most often victims of police brutality. So they’re not just systemic animal abuse, they’re also a tool for increased police brutality and to excuse

[mothdogs]

I feel like people who defend police dogs often times don’t understand the extent of the damage—physical and psychological—that they can cause to victims. A simple google search for “Police dog mauling” will give you more than enough graphic bite wounds and lethal lacerations to last a lifetime. And it goes without being said that not every person who’s attacked by a police dog is guilty of a crime, and even if they /are/ guilty of a crime/in the process of committing a crime, using a trained live weapon to inflict massive damage before the point of arrest even is a human rights violation. It’s the literal definition of police brutality.

Couple this with the literal proven fact that police can and do train their dogs to react on cue (source) (source 2) AND the fact that false positives happen at an alarming rate (a two-year study in Sydney in 2010-11 found about an 80% false positive rate! And that’s just one study! There are more!) ??

The use of police dogs is unconscionable. Don’t excuse them because they’re dogs.

Don’t come at me about the Bible and homosexuality if you’re using it to justify your homophobia. I will demolish you.

Also, for some cultures including early Christianity, sodomite could very well have ment someone gravely inhospitable, as the sin of Sodom was inhospitality and not anal sex.

[scretladyspider]

I wanted to talk about that too but I was running out of tweets I could put on a singular thread 😅 thank you so much for this addition!

I’m reblogging this partially because it’s frickin awesome, and partially for future reference, cus yeah the evangelical community is really scary to be in as part of the LGBTQA community

[scretladyspider]

People keep asking for the links on the thread, so, here’s a link to the thread.

[inkypainter15]

Whoa this is one of the BEST things I’ve ever seen!! And I learned a lot from it which I can tell my LGBTQ+ friends so that they can also destroy someone with this knowledge! Thank you so much for making a stand!

[ninjakasuga]

This was some hella good stuff here. I knew there was corruption with Bible verses and such but wow this was supremely informative!

[woodelf68]

I’ve reblogged this before, but I always feel like someone might need to see this.

[black-to-the-bones-deactivated2]

He was an activist who inspired millions to fight for their rights. He knew what was wrong with our country and risked his life to help his people achieve equality.  In the society where black were treated like animal he did everything possible to change this. His brave soul, his will and courage changed the history of America , changed the people. He made us believe we can win this war. He payed for it with his life. He will always be remembered.

[thecheshirecass-deactivated2018]

Respecting his memory also means acknowledging that his fight is far from over, black people are facing the same issues that ha birth to the Black Panthers, and that the FBI is basically trying to launch COINTELPRO 2.0 against BLM and other black activists. Hampton should be more than a history lesson, he should be a rallying point.

If there was a sci-fi novel with a megalomaniac billionaire who was the son of an Apartheid emerald mine owner, and he was privatizing space exploration so the public no longer has a say in it...you know that would be considered bad, right? The heroes would fight to stop SpaceX.

The fact that anyone considers SpaceX as anything other than a continuation of the transfer of public sector science, that was run for the public good, into the hands of billionaires is a testament to our propaganda. Having space exploration controlled by one billionaire is bad.

Remember in the 60s when rockets launched and the credit was given to the scientists and astronauts that actually made it happen?

Now it's given to the billionaire who pillaged NASA tech and is now using it as his playground and promotion for his cars. That's bad. SpaceX is bad.

Remember:

Left wing ideology is homegrown, elaborated on and advanced by the people themselves. No one has spent trillions of dollars of the last several hundred years to make us believe in a better world for our neighbors and fellow human beings. Not even George soros as many of you have probably heard.

Right wing ideology is and always has been funded nearly to its completion by the ultra rich since the beginning of time and capitalism and its spread across the world. They have spent trillions upon trillions to make their fiction a reality to those that arent given the means to know the full extent of the functions of this system.

That’s why we keep getting hacked lmao

[king-dykewarp-deactivated202106]

its because schools are so caught up in violating students every rights to privacy that they are blatently disregarding thoes same kids safety. zoom allowes you to track eye movements. mousepad/mouse movemenst. the browser activitiy of the user. its horrifying and dare i fucking say litteral motherfucking spyware. its not a app its a fucking virus.   its so horrifically easy to guess every facet of zoom that im guessing that schools just looked at the violation features and took them in without a second throught or trial. they disregard better functioning programs like discord because they are horrified that thoes programs would give students a sliver of privacy their instistance on using zoom is a very clear direct cause of schools horrific obsession with micromanageing every single facet of a students life.  report the fucking app.  get it taken down

[simontesla]

If you have to use Zoom, your best bet is to run it from the browser. The Zoom website will try to get you to use the app, but if you keep declining that, it will use its browser-based interface. Since browsers have much better security, they’re unable to do any kind of persistent monitoring and have almost no access to system activities. When you close the tab, you can be assured that it isn’t running.

^^^^^^^ REBLOG THIS VERSION TOO

[toastpotent-deactivated20250619]

US Media: “The immoral Chinese peop- I mean, government says that their COVID19 deaths have been flattening due to heavy social distancing- but are they lying? Could these vulgar communists be trying to hide the disease they are spreading to us?”

The US, like a week later:

[zvaigzdelasas]

and remember don’t trust vietnam either and ignore all the vietnamese people telling you they’re doing well uwu they’re all paid stooges being paid billions of dollars to lie and hide the trillions of deaths caused by evil communism that so much of this website loves bc they’re edgy uwu

[zvaigzdelasas]

dont trust the evil scary commies cracking down on freedom uwu

children! avert your eyes from this scary evil brainwashed propaganda uwu

[sunflower-satellite-deactivated]

our government tried to bomb their government into submission for 12 years for saying these types of things. Let that sink in.

[zvaigzdelasas]

The US had had boots on the ground in Indochina since the early 50’s, and they were supportive of the french colonial war for years before. The US destroyed their own navy ship in Tonkin a decade into the war to justify their nearly 30-year colonial bloodthirst.

Let that sink in.

(i.e. perfectly legal slavery)

New Orleans is one of the hardest hit cities in the United States, but I haven’t seen that point get much national mainstream media coverage. Furthermore, the racial disparities in access to medical care and healthcare outcomes in general in Louisiana are staggering, and this crisis has made that clearer than ever. This is truly atrocious

[ancomposts]

So I realize that most of my followers are leftists and probably know this but I want everyone to realize that it is literally legal in the US to enslave people as a punishment for crime.

These people are getting paid less than 2 dollars an hour. Slavery was never abolished. They just changed the justification.
