We're being told that if we sacrifice the rights of some people, then the rest of us get to keep our rights. We all know that's some BS.

In Massachusetts, we have a responsibility to protect the vulnerable and stand up for those who need it. We don’t throw trans kids under the bus for political points. We protect them—and all of our neighbors—because trans rights are human rights.

This is what I mean when I talk about the Fantasy of the Optional Pandemic, where the virus was erased from the equation and mitigation measures were always portrayed as an avoidable choice. Headlines about what actually happened are never even acknowledged.

Children are absolutely an oppressed and marginalized class and hating them and their existence in public is telling on yourself and your relationship with your own power in a *very* specific way. You are outing yourself as not a safe person

"it's OK to be manly" sounds a lot like the male supremacist version of "it's OK to be white"

Yup. This has been incredibly gaslighting and frustrating to (leftist!) Jews who’ve been trying to say: hey, the online left sure is adopting a lot of Nazi memes and rhetoric about Jews and get told “you’re lying/Zionists because bigotry is incompatible with leftism.” It’s giving “real Christians”

I really don't know what we do about living in a digital age where "the left" as it is understood and monetized online has basically zero connection-- ideological or otherwise-- to the actual movement in this country. It's a bunch of reactionaries who rode the Bernie train to niche fame.

The very things he said in his defense told you who he was. The "can't people change" crowd never really addressed why he wasn't acting like someone who was ashamed of his actions, and instead was trying to imply that everyone else needed to be ashamed for asking the question.

there is a cohort of men who resent the responsibilities and obligations of adulthood — of the fact that you owe things to other people. it is a fundamentally childish impulse that they have reconfigured as the height of masculinity, and i think it informs the parasocial attraction to platner.

Even at the pundit level, if what you want is a party that hates trans people and women, that valorizes a kind of rural white masculinity, and that organizes around contempt for all things urban, educated, and liberal… well, they already have that, and maybe you should just be on the side you’re on.

“But why would you drink with him if you thought he was a creep?” Because creepy men are still powerful people in their fields. Because they are still the professional & social contacts we are forced to maintain. Because the same people tell us we’re crazy for thinking a man is creepy to begin with.

Unfortunately, when you argue with people about sexual violence enough, you realize there are way too many people who believe that the reason it happens so much is because victims aren’t good enough at stopping it.

A question you have to ask yourself if you’re going to approach politics as a responsible adult is whether your goal is to improve material conditions and achieve changes that reduce human suffering, or whether it is to look really cool in front of your friends online.These are not compatible aims.

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.
