I believe fraternity hazing and military hazing and sports team hazing where men abuse each other is acclimating them into a broader culture of abuse where they will then believe it is their right to abuse other more vulnerable people. It’s so insidious. And that’s also why I think men defend it

Magical creatures don’t exist, eh? Roughly 400 million years ago, before the birth of trees, there were giant mystery cones called “Prototaxites,” which grew nearly 30 feet tall. We literally have no idea what they were. Plant: no Mushroom: no Animal: no Tell me this isn’t a little bit magic

like i say every time this comes up, the term for what awaits survivors who go through the official system (cops, rape kit at the hospital, the hell of a trial where you as the victim get to be cross examined by yr rapist’s defense) is called “the second rape”

If rapists actually faced consequences for their actions we wouldn’t have nearly as many rapists. In reality many rapists actually benefit from their actions

Seeing people post about how unfair the “mob justice” against the Cornell rapists is doesn’t really move me when there is no justice for survivors. The system doesn’t work; it enacts further punishment on the victims. Society is even crueler. So spare me the “mob justice” rhetoric about the accused

A truly heinous man has doxxed the Cornell victim on X and the comments are predictably vile. Based on countless interviews I’ve done with survivors, the trauma they are subjected to for coming forward is oftentimes even worse than the initial trauma they experienced. There is no real justice system

The most useful thing we can be doing right now is making Republican women angry at Republican men, because the GOP can’t function without women’s labor or win without white women’s votes. We don’t need GOP women as allies, we don’t need to win them over, we just need them to disengage.

Cat is 100% right about this. Obstacles, strife, friction -- these are REQUIRED ingredients for being human. Our capacity to feel good tracks with our capacity to feel bad, because really it's the capacity to FEEL. If AI makes everything convenient, humanity devolves to isolated socialslop.

Why is economic sentiment so low when GDP growth is positive? There’s no reasonable explanation, the only possible conclusion is that people are all just doing a mass hysteria (/s)

Can we make a comparison to deindustrailisation now? The slashing of wages, the redundancies, the subordination of learning to profit? The intellectual impoverishment of communities and generations, not to mention the literal impoverishment through unemployment and shrinking of local economies?

This is the crux of it. We can't have nice things because too many Americans would rather make life harder for themselves than let go of the belief that they're inherently superior to anyone lower on the ladder than they are (especially if the person lower on the ladder has darker skin).

lol Republicans have been using Mitch to vote "by proxy" on committee markup. In the Agriculture Committee, John Boozman claimed Mitch told him how he wished to vote on amendments (senate rules allow proxy voting for markup but not to advance the bill to the floor, or for final floor votes)

It's in the long-term interests of the United States for the current lawless, corrupt, incompetent government to fail at every lawless, corrupt, and incompetent action it undertakes. I wish Canada the best in their wholly-justified retaliation in a trade war we started for no good reason.

Yes, this is 100% about censorship in general, and the current anti-sexual weirdness that’s going on. But a paragraph near the end of the article is especially telling… ASMR is primarily created by women. Women doing anything will always be perceived by some as inherently sexual (excerpt in comms)
