A diagram that is a metaphor for Trickle Down Economics. First, how we're told it works: a pyramid of wine glasses, a wine bottle pouring into the top one which then overflows to the lower levels, filling them all up. Next, How It Actually Works: A pyramid of wine glasses with a wine bottle filling up the top one, but instead of overflowing, the top wine glass just gets bigger... and bigger... and bigger, while the bottom wine glasses stay empty.

It’s really remarkable to me that 10 years into this people feel compelled to “clarify” Trump’s homicidal and often genocidal fantasies. It is deranged for the president to daydream about American cities in states he hates getting blown up. Full stop.

This should be so obvious that it doesn’t need to be said, but given what kind of weekend it’s been on here, apparently it does: If you don’t want old rapists running the world, in office, in the board room, making decisions for all of us get comfortable with “ruining” young rapists’ lives

The US criminal justice system is not designed to prevent crime or even to punish the guilty. It's objectively, quantifiably, not very good at either of those things🤷🏿‍♂️ It is designed to arrest, convict, and incarcerate, large numbers of innocent, poor, Black, men. It is the best in the world at that

I don’t want to sound glib, but if a woman actually wanted to “make up a crime to ruin a man’s reputation,” they’d pick one that people actually give a shit about, like hurting a dog or something.

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

This is why more women don't come forward, and why more rapists aren't jailed. Because mostly-male cops and prosecutors find it more believable that a 20-yr-old would want to have sex with a room full of fraternity brothers than accept she was raped. What ever happened to common fucking sense?
