@jollyette.bsky.social That performative masculinity you addressed in your article in January continues, but let's call it what it is: the sexual politics of meat, and it's related to Trump's authoritarian moves. events.hangdallas.com/events/why-m...

They're Not Defending Protein, They're Defending a Hierarchy
The title names the game. When someone recoils at the suggestion of eating less meat, the reaction often isn't about nutrition or taste. It's about order.

This is how Wyland's whales painted in downtown Dallas April 1999 were erased last week in advance of FIFA World Cup. Long story short: There were “multiple points of failure," made by MANY. And at this very moment, Wyland has an attorney serving a demand letter. www.dallasnews.com/opinion/comm...

Wilonsky: All the mistakes that led to the extinction of Wyland's Dallas whales
How did Wyland's whales disappear? Because someone said: Here’s a wall you can probably paint over. And because no one else said: No.

You may have seen the news about the painting over of the Whale Mural in downtown Dallas so that FiFA could create a new mural. During high school son Ben Buchanan made a video with his friend Matt with a scene of Ben walking past the video while eating a popsicle. Here's the mural in 2007!

The Texas legislature rammed through a gerrymandering bill at the request of Trump. Virginia actually voted in favor of redistricting to counterbalance what Texas and other Republican-controlled states have done. Yet only one is considered a "power grab." Oligarch-owned media in a nutshell.

The Trump Administration can’t even impose its will on Minneapolis when the full force of the federal government was focused on it, but surely they will be able to pacify and remake Iran, a nation of 90 million people halfway around the world.

What can meat eating tell us about Western authoritarians? What can ideas about white manhood tell us about white supremacists' fetishization of meat & mammalian milk? What can ICE recruitment ads tell us about settler colonialism & its relationship to eating animals? This & more, March 26.

Question: Define the sexual politics of meat. Answer: "Epstein, ‘Lolita’ and a Culture of Disembodiment Disturbing images released in the Epstein files showing passages from Nabokov’s infamous novel written on bodies exemplify a world where women and girls are treated as objects for consumption."

Judith Herman wrote, "All the perpetrator asks is that the bystander do nothing. He appeals to the universal desire to see, hear & speak no evil. The victim on the contrary asks the bystander to share the burden of pain. The victim demands action, engagement & remembering" Howard Lutnick we see you.

This seems such an inept way of addressing the problem. Why not meet our goals by teaching people about vegan bacon, made at home or purchased? Bacon is dead pig flesh flavored; so use the flavors on tofu, tempeh, seitan, mushrooms, carrots, chickpeas and discover your taste buds can be fooled.
