Norwegian job security is generally a really good thing but HOLY SHIT, the fact that you can't use "actively violated the privacy of your own patients in internationally published research" as grounds for termination is ridiculous. That's a position of power that needs to be held to higher standards

We are not granted the same level of humanity as them. They’ll acknowledge some interiority there, they’ll anthropomorphize us like we’re dogs. But ultimately our lost potential isn’t weighed as heavily as theirs. Our lives and contributions are minimized.

Sorry to go full femcel here but a gifted cis man missing out on a few opportunities because he did a rape is a societal crisis, literally anyone else’s life being fundamentally altered by getting raped is a fucking Tuesday.

It's actively insanity inducing to be a survivor and a feminist right now because in the face of the sheer ubiquity of sexual assault and the lack of consequences for it, we're all being besieged by demands that we think of the rapist men, forgive the rapist men, cleanse the souls of the rapist men

Banger. Frankly a salve against people weaponizing the language of accountability against survivors.
Our goal is not for every single person to feel comfortable and validated, our goal is to end cycles of harm. Fundamental change in the people who enact harm is by far our preference, but lacking that we understand that our responsibility is then to reduce or destroy their capacity to continue to enact harm on others. We don’t just sit on our hands and hope we can eventually convince them to change at the same time that their enacting of that harm continues to work in their own interest because they’re surrounded by people who think consequences for harm is the same as throwing someone in prison

I think frameworks for political analysis are sort of like screwdriver tips. If the heads of the screws you're trying to sink are ALMOST the right shape, chances are you can still get the screw in, but you'll slip more often and have a higher risk of stripping the screw.

Like you sure CAN perform a purely class-reductionist analysis of an issue that's actually better understood through a feminist analysis. You might even be able to make some correct observations that make it feel like you're on the right track. But you're stripping the screw.

"Nazis are not bad because of beliefs and systems they choose to uphold and contribute to, but because they have been corrupted by the forces of evil into an inherently lesser, worse type of person" might be an unwise approach to anti-nazi rhetoric

as a jew let me just say that the narrative that there is some inherent inescapable evil one can be born with or imbued with is tired, old, and needs to be put down. it's narratives like this that contribute to people not really understanding what slipping into fascism actually looks like

I am not going to continue arguing against the position "Nazis simply can't help being Nazis because they've been inescapably programmed for evil," because it abdicates them of responsibility for their actions.

The fact this pretense is maintained at all is sometimes mind boggling to me. If you are perceived to be part of the in group even a little men will trip over themselves to tell you about how much they love violence and dominance under the assumption you're on the same team.

I'm kind of tired of pretending that "sense of brotherhood" is a real, meaningful term and isn't just a euphemism for men's spaces where they bond over misogynistic humiliation rituals and coach each other on how best to commit sexual assault.

I'm sick of the pretense that male homosociality isn't based in the veneration of violence against the vulnerable. I have seen the inside of men's "brotherhoods" and all they are is hierarchies of violence where anyone who doesn't support predatory behavior becomes a target of it.

There needs to be a wider cultural reckoning with how the values a patriarchal society most exalts actively incentivizes men to either wilfully perpetuate sexual violence or otherwise cover for their "brothers" who do. But as a step towards that, we need to be honest about "brotherhoods".

That politicians feel empowered to so brazenly assist institutions in covering up and getting away with sexual abuse is an indictment of our society and culture, and how badly they continue to fail women.

Imagine looking at the media landscape—music, books, movies—and concluding that it would be better if it were all simply infinite reflections of yourself, if you never had to be exposed to another personality, another experience, another life. Just you, you, you. Sounds fucking horrifying.

You know when public attention can reverse a prosecutorial decision like this you almost get the sense that the decision to shrug it off in the first place was not based on an assessment of the quality of the evidence so much as an assessment of the seriousness of the crime.

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.

it really needs to be more openly discussed that all the people advocating for “we should be fine with losing basic skills if we get more systems thinking” are men, meaning socialized to expect to be able to offload basic tasks of daily living onto a wife as part of their compensation for existing

Dems replaced action on trans rights with hollow statements, then dropped those statements, then embraced anti-trans rhetoric. Now supporting anti-trans laws and blocking pro-trans ones. At every step the "they're betraying us" radicals were correct and "be patient" liberals were completely wrong.

One thing that I think we shpuld always bear in mind when talking about why, say, liberal politicians fold so easily on trans rights is that a lot of cis people just desperately want to be transphobic and will seize on any excuse to do so no matter how flimsy.

It's not even hypocrisy on their terms, they're being totally consistent within their own worldview. For right-wingers it's trivially obvious one would privilege the in-group while harming and depriving the outgroup, that's the thing they believe in.

We already live in the world where only cis teens can take puberty blockers. Cis people availing of treatments that are denied to trans people isn't some massive glaring inconsistency in their worldview. It's banal cissexism, denying us the means to change sex because we're viewed as lesser.

Please learn that "you don't apply the same rules to yourself as you do to others" isn't "exposing" conservatives, and definitely not an effective means of shaming them. They are very intentional and deliberate about this! It's an exercise of power, of deeming themselves exceptional and superior.

To beat femininity out of boys, to make boys believe and uphold that they are different from girls, can be nothing like girls, and are entitled to extract certain things from girls. "Male socialization" is enforcing sex differentiation, a violence that queer boys and trans girls bear the brunt of.
