this is all part of co-opting progressive language by conservatives, and you will notice is that it doesn’t start with conservative co-option, it starts with liberal co-option, conservative co-option is only possible because liberals already defanged the language, rendering it basically meaningless

like, in corporate settings basically every time someone criticizes anything, someone else will talk about how that makes them feel unsafe, how they feel this makes the workplace unwelcoming, how the views expressed make them uncomfortable voicing disagreement.

this is btw really common in all kinds of settings, conservatives love co-opting progressive language, and the reason it works is that liberals use the language without understanding the underlying power analysis

I’d call Mormon socialism a red brown alliance but they could take an issue with me insinuating they’re anything but white.

A Bsky post by The Salt Lake Tribune saying:

Latter-day Saint socialist candidates were common in the early 20th century. How and why that changed, although socialist members are not uncommon in today's global church.

There are so so many social dynamics worthy of critique that are not carceral. I spend a great deal of time talking about them myself! Which is why they are worth the time and labor to develop an accurate analysis of, a vocabulary specific to them.

It’s pretty disgusting to me how often I see “carceral logic” deployed in a self-serving way to avoid personal consequences. So many essays penned, videos and podcasts produced, that manage to talk at length about the “carceral” without ever meaningfully referring to the realities of incarceration.

If it’s a social dynamic worth critiquing, it’s worth critiquing with accuracy. Find a way to do it without flattening the differences between an interpersonal conflict and the organized violence of mass incarceration.

Reminder that “carceral logic” is literally about state and medical *incarceration* in its various forms. It is NOT a shorthand for “any social consequences happening at all.” If a response doesn’t include involving organized authoritarian apparatuses and agents: it’s not carceral!

perhaps one day this planet will come to reckon with how 5,000 years of so-called "human civilization" is built on the rape and murder of countless nameless women. when all institutions are fraternities, all fraternities need to be burned down. all "brotherhoods" annihilated for people to be free.

Men's entitlement to extracting sex from women at any cost (to the woman), ignoring all signs of distress or pain or inability to actively participate, doesn't come from some abstract "biological" cause but a culture that reinforces sex as a woman's only function. We have not progressed past that.

It's not a conscious thing. Men don't think they see women as inferior, or believe that they take women less seriously. But women are "different", you know? Men are a certain way, women are a certain way. Women are just wired differently, like, biologically. They have a different "purpose".

I'm thinking of the countless attempts to shut down and any all discussions about patriarchy and misogyny by invoking abstract charges of "gender essentialism", or accusing feminists of thinking all men are inherently evil. The reality is actually much worse---women's pain isn't seen as real.

It's possible that the space famous for being excited to supposedly destroy the world, for being into eugenics, known to be organised around orgies, and producing a fascist plagiarism rape machine might be the sort of place that subjects women to rape? Like, maybe we should have seen this coming?

It really doesn't make sense to attribute those job losses to AI-the-technology, because if that were the case we'd be observing AI outputs displacing conventional entertainment products, and they're clearly not. Rather, the impact of AI is that AI-the-business is crowding out other investment.

The poltical pressure to capitulate on PPE is immense: on every individual who wears masks, on every event that requires it, on every social group that maintains it as a norm. The goal is to wipe every trace of what we remind them of from awareness. To mask is a regular practice in resistance.

This means to protect public health and create more access for people whose absence in social life was taken for granted before the pandemic began shouldn’t be ceded for the false and temporary trappings of “normalcy.” It’s ground that should be maintained wherever possible.

Let’s not forget that the precautions we associate with Covid (clean air, PPE like masks) were *lessons* more of us learned in the earlier stages of the pandemic. Lessons that, applied, can protect from many other viral illnesses and create greater access for immunocompromised people.

SO much love for the covid cautious spaces that maintain their shared principles under enormous pressure to capitulate. When organizers commit to accessibility they send the message that the participation of disabled agitators is understood as critical.

4.5 years ago I went through severe autistic burn out. No diagnosis up until that point, I just broke down and stopped being able to function at 30. I was a teacher up until that point. Now I can't handle going to the supermarket alone. Knowing what accommodations you need and demanding them matters

And I really do think that's what most of our disabled comrades are complaining about, insofar as they are. Not that we haven't eliminated all health risks in our spaces but that we don't behave like this stuff matters for all of us as a movement...

*We're" the ones who force them into having to consider their health individually when we decline to think about it collectively, rather than working with our disabled comrades to make reasonable choices re: weighing risks. Something they have more experience with anyway!

And yeah when you put people in that position, you are only gonna hear from certain people. You aren't gonna hear from people who don't want to talk about their personal needs in an organizing context, they'll just be quiet and protect themselves. Which is a big loss.

I find it infuriating that nations who for decades have profited off the exploitation of immigrant labour, who have indeed engineered the conditions for that exploitation through making the countries of origin nigh unliveable, now dare to turn around and call migrants a drain. Absolutely maddening.

Stop calling people who wear masks and take Covid precautions the “forever covid” crowd. We’re literally the only ones trying to eliminate the virus. It’s not gone. It’s not over. It’s still disabling. People who deny this reality are the “forever COVID” crowd.

LGBTQ+ youth are hugely overrepresented in homeless populations cos their folks kick them out or chase them out. Where is the moral panic over that? Why do we, as a culture, place the blame for bad relationships on abused kids and not their abusers?

The moral panic around estrangement is backlash against the small amount of cultural progress we have made for familial abuse survivors. Against the idea that parents don't get to hurt their kids, against the absolute tyranny of the heteropatriarchal family.

I am fortunate enough to have a good relationship with my family, but my experience is that people who have been harmed by their families experience immense social pressure to maintain relationships with them if anything. It takes a lot for people to truly cut off family because that's such a taboo.

What a surprise, the organizers of the covid cautious dyke bar hated the article, rejected its framing, and is defending their covid cautious patrons and performers. Anyone who joined in on the viral harassment campaign started by Jesse Singal wanna say oops or…? recorder.com/2026/09/24/g...

Current and former owners of Last Ditch could not be reached by phone, email or social media. However, Last Ditch did share on Instagram that the Globe story allegedly misconstrued statements from Noire, and urged community members to stop harassing Noire.
"It is neither productive, progressive, nor valiant to attack a Black patron. He has been a collaborator and performer of Last Ditch for a while, and he deserves to speak his mind about accountability and repair from the bar," the Last Ditch statement reads. "There are so many misconceptions due to the disorganization of the Globe article. He did not call for the bar to be firebombed. Further, he did not disparage the owner for being homeless.
"As a result of this abysmal journalism, he has been getting additional threats, slurs, harassment, and is being reported to the police over something he did not do," Last Ditch continued. "This is not supporting us at Last Ditch, and it is, at its core, anti-Blackness hysteria."
