It's also "traditional" - meaning Jewish groups being disdainful of each other, including in this way - and it's definitely one of those traditions - minhag - for which we say that minhag has the same letters as gehenom - hell.

And inevitably someone comes along to suggest "Then why can Black people use it?" ...Because language is contextual and we have both the personal relationship with the word and history, and the cultural framework, to separate its previous usage against us from our own rebellious reclamation of it.

Behind fatphobia is the belief that being thin makes someone MORALLY superior. It's not the luck of genetics, being thin is PROOF that you are better than everyone else. And if you're not thin... all you deserve is pain and suffering. Socially, professionally, personally. That's how fatphobia works.

Anti-Blackness is a distinct vector within racism Calling it out is abt acknowledging how POC's undermine Black people to gain points within PWIs Racial solidarity, collective strength can only happen when we identify Anti-Blackness and specifically act together against it bsky.app/profile/sand...

The same voice that told the Mormon President back in 1890 to end polygamy, just happenstance while federal troops had cannon aimed at him. Mormon history is fascinating

Media Won’t Stop Psychologizing Long Covid

Media outlets that trumpet their journalistic integrity have used their prestige to launder an unproven, anti-science conspiracy theory about Long Covid.

There are a million studies proving that the regular use of dehumanizing language and violent rhetoric, aimed at *anyone*, reduces people's empathy, lowers the threshold at which people will employ violence, and increases their aggression level. It genuinely rewires your brain.

Don't think this is the major cause. Games have been getting updates since Sierra made a Quest for Glory 2 and King's Quest 2 etc. Gamergate created the path that led to all gamers being toxic. The whole playing environment is garbage.

Someone asked a Maggid (a storyteller of moral parables, paid Jewish profession in late medieval Europe), "How come all your parable stories fit perfectly with the moral that follows?" His response: "Heard of the archer who never missed? He shot his arrow first, then painted the target around it."
