Christa Pike's botched execution is a horrifying reminder of the cruelty & inhumanity of the death penalty. State-sanctioned killing is barbaric and it's time we end this unjust punishment once & for all.

The feminist movement that Steinem did much to mainstream and expand is in retreat, with women’s rights and status eroding conspicuously, and I’d like the usual suspects to consider this before they go on their ahistorical little rants about how she was a CIA stooge or whatever.

Two things about this and the little online “radical” critiques: 1. The public response to Dolly has been sincere — that confuses narcissistic grifters. They always think everyone else is scamming because they are. They resent any evidence this is untrue. See also: men jealous of babies.

She said her politics are in her songs. Well, twenty years ago one of those songs (Travelin’ Thru) made an explicit connection between gender affirmation and Christian love and rebirth. I could go on (and on) but that alone hardly suggests a person who is diligently avoiding taking sides.

What horseshit. She embraced gay people at the height of the AIDS crisis, embraced trans people at the height of the war against them, supported Black communities and artists, and wrote the most pro-worker's rights feminist pop song of all time. Neutral my ass

Parton spoke in support of gay people for close to forty years. I am old enough to vividly remember the limb she was out on in doing so. So let me put it another way: We may not know what her politics were, but we certainly know what they weren't.
