the god of illusion

i don't like tumblr, trying not to invest much time in it. staunch progressive. i read books every day and you should too

[shellaccount1000]

this is my shell account, i don't want a real presence on tumblr. sorry for being weird but i hate this site. i browse here for some book/movie/show content and politics but i'm not putting any effort into running this account. (i occasionally reblog art or fandom-y content for my archive though sorry)

fuck trump + trump voters

my beliefs align with radical feminism but i am not hostile to normal trans people and i see issues in radfem spaces

i'm mostly interested in the cultures of this and other sites.

i collect posts that align with my negative experiences with people from both the left and right wing but i'm a progressive forever. also i hate right wingers fervently. 0 tolerance policy for rightoids

is this what it felt like to be an adult in 1970 going "I think smoking is bad and we probably should not do it indoors in the faces of our children"

[nordenflycht]

um? there are all these studies (don't look who funded them) suggesting that cigarettes can actually help lung health. sure, there are some other studies indicating a correlation with one or two illnesses, but correlation is not causation. and there's certainly no one single study showing a correlation with all those bad things you suggest. and the mechanism you propose sounds a bit commie tbh. do you hate freedom?

and no one has ever run a 100 year double-blind study proving without a shadow of a doubt that cigarettes directly and unambiguously cause lung cancer or any other unpleasant illness. really, you're just anti-progress and don't want kids to experience happiness and chill. *blows cigarette smoke in your face*

you know who also said cigarettes were bad? the NAZIS

I wish the people who loathe liberals and basically spend every waking moment online screaming and crying and throwing up and lying about Democrats and acting like the Democratic Party is evil while doing absolutely nothing to stop Republicans and even saying it's not so bad when they win would just be honest with themselves and register as a Republican already. We get it, you want to own the libs and take down the Democratic Party. You're a future Republican no matter how many tumblr leftist buzzwords you sprinkle onto your soft Fox News manifesto about how evil Obama is. This is exhausting.

Thank you to New Yorkers for bringing joy to elderly lib ladies in the Midwest who think of your new mayor like he’s their handsome surrogate son.

Thank you to the people of the Commonwealth of Virginia for filling our enemies with terror.

covert incest is the norm in conservative evangelical and catholic families but you’re not supposed to talk about it like that. you’re supposed to pretend it’s normal or just a little silly maybe or old-fashioned to make your daughter vow to preserve her sexual “purity” for you (her dad) until she gets married to a man and ban her from wearing tampons . you’re supposed to pretend it’s gay people that groom children. i didn’t even go thru this really i was just around it a lottt and it fucked me up well i went through it at church and school but not at home. but my parents i think didn’t know how to talk about it or what to make of it or whether they should challenge it so i accepted it as part of how the world works.

i think sometimes these men play this virgin whore thing where their wives are sullied (by them!) so now their daughters are their pure virgin brides. i don’t know man

[lianedegrenade]

and the thing about this is that it truly is effective at training girls to accept and even eroticize their subjugated place in their future marriages and in motherhood. women spend their entire lives with so much shame. women from conservative religious groups have higher rates of pelvic floor pain and vaginismus than the general population. old women pass their shame down the generational line. it’s so evil

genuinely I'm not kidding every single gaza go fund me in a scam do not give them money. don't believe in random tumblr users "vetting" them.

the countermeasure to dehumanisation is not sexualisation. the countermeasure is to treat the other person with respect and dignity actually.

[bebsi-cola]

i don't care if you wanna fuck fat people or hairy people or trans people or the elderly or disabled people or whatever. can you treat them like human beings

[bighominiglo]

You always get it when it comes to any other demographic but when it comes to women we are both dehumanized and sexualized daily and everyone says we like it and it's good actually.

[kiefbowl]

here's my impression of anywhere on the internet

someone: what if it's hard being a mom because moms have no resources

everyone: she's a whore

two seconds later another person: I work at a printer place and a guy came in and said his wife told him to pick up the birthday banner she ordered for their son and I said what's the order number and he said idk and then I said that's okay what is your son's name or birthday and he said idk

everyone: okay but maybe he's autistic and has adhd and he should leave his whorey bitch wife
