Man I miss free the nipple. Its getting warmer and we don’t even have free the nipple anymore

[gramarye]

feminism has backslid so hard in recent years people don't even know what free the nipple means anymore

Does anybody else find it extremely conspicuous how there has been a years-long social media vibe shift on anarchists as cringy do-nothing larpers following the X's purchase by Elon Musk and Joe Biden directing the FBI to pursue anarchists and now a bunch of people got 50 year sentences because they had anarchist zines? You guys see the maneuvers here, right? Or are we just ignoring it?

[argumate]

funny that the MAHA movement is antivax and has trad connections but is also gungho about grey market Chinese peptides, entirely vibes based medicine.

i’m going to be really honest with you guys i think the tendency to read the absolute worst possible intentions into every action you don’t agree with is getting too automatic and it’s eating you from the inside out

Big fan of that post by @dorothylarouge I hope you don't mind but god sent me a vision and I had to act

Prediction: When Trump finally kicks the bucket from like a heart attack or w/e, it will not be publicly acknowledged for weeks, if not months, long after everyone already knows. Jorken DePaenus Vance is gonna put one of those uncanny-valley deepfakes up on the TV and it'll be like "Hello loyal subjects of the USA of America! It is I, your alive president."

Hell, it might have already happened for all we know

i find anglophone plagiarism discourse extremely funny because most bollywood movies when i was growing up would be straight up ripping plots and cinematography from cinema abroad and the music in them would be interpolating and sometimes just remaking it with hindi lyrics. copyright is fake asf the world is so much bigger without it <3

"why do you still bring up charlie kirk" because it's funny. his death is genuinely a running joke to me. you could say it's the greatest contribution he has made to society

the thing about evangelizers is that it is fundamentally rude to walk up to strangers and try to convince them to change religions, but even non/loose christians who don't evangelize don't understand this

[angelsaxis]

you are minding your business and a stranger approaches you with a spiel dressed up to look like love, but their main points are:

whatever your life is now, its not actually good. i am not relying on any facts about your life in the slightest to make this conclusion

because of that, you're not actually happy at all -- again, with zero evidence

the only pathway to true happiness is MY religion. your life experiences up to this point are irrelevant.

there is zero likelihood that you left christianity because of trauma

your lifestyle, whatever it is, is fundamentally wrong

your religion or theology, whatever it is, is fundamentally wrong

your belief system, whatever it is, is fundamentally wrong

your culture, cultural ties and expressions, and deeply-held cultural beliefs, are all fundamentally wrong to the point that, if you do not change, you will suffer possibly in this lifetime AND the next and deserve every ounce of pain if you don't change to my religion

again I cannot stress enough that there are two reasons why people suffer: they're either being Prepared for Greatness (that we'll never know about and that, because we'll never know, can get our hopes up but also can't rely on or expect because thats wrong) or You Fully Deserve It, regardless of what the suffering is.

my religion and my god "save" people but also does not even guarantee basic safety to people who need it and you're ludicrous for expecting that

you're also missing the point and explicitly in the wrong if you expect material help of any kind at all for either yourself or others who are suffering

[ironmyrmidon]

They also seem to operate under the unreasonable belief that most people are one good sales pitch away from changing their entire understanding of the world.

I've recently started reading books about Cain.🥸 I really like the dynamic between him and Jurgen

[vulturevanity]

I think we need to kill the sentiment that people lose their right to personhood once they do something bad enough

[vulturevanity]

I don't know who needs to hear this but you need to stop dehumanising people even if those people are "abusers" or "creeps" because you need to understand that you are not immune to doing something equally as bad

Abusers and creeps are not some species of especially heinous animal or alien or monster wearing the face of a human. They're people. And you NEED to drill it into your head that they are people because you NEED to remember that people are capable of doingn heinous shit. And you are a person. And your loved ones are people.

By emotionally classifying people who have done heinous things as subhuman filth incapable of thinking and feeling and acting just like you and me, and by using that emotional dehumanization as a reason to deny those people any compassion or support on a systemic level, you risk becoming blind to abuse/violence perpetrated by someone close to you or even yourself. Because if "abusers don't deserve rights", then you won't ever want to admit or accept that you or a loved one is perpetrating abuse, and that makes stopping the abuse or preventing further abuse much harder. This is how you end up excuaing abusive behaviour on the grounds that, since you don't see someone as a disgusting subhuman pile of garbage therefore they can't possibly be An Abuser, Trademark

[vulturevanity]

And here'a the even harder pill to swallow: since the world isn't split into "abusers" and "good people", in the same way you or someone you love can inflict abuse/violence on others, the people who HAVE inflicted abuse/violence on others can, in fact, change and become better people

There is no bottomless chasm of moral uncleanliness that someone can run off and fall into and get stuck in forever. People can do better. Yes, even those people. You HAVE to accept this. Otherwise not only is there no motivation for anyone to try and do better (which is when people become stuck in a cycle of violence and abuse they don't want to escape), but your idea of a perfect justice system doesn't look any different from Literal Christian Hell. And I HOPE you understand that Literal Christian Hell is, to put it very lightly, not a good justice system.
