Just tell us you’re bowing to conservative outrage for reputational damage-control and you have investors to think about. It would be more honest.

the thing to understand is that for many people the violence of order maintenance is simply not seen as violence in the first place

You can do things that help create the world you want to live in.

1/ This article from CBC is atrocious. It belittles 2SLGBTQ+ people & their experiences of hate & discrimination fomented by JK Rowling. It frames trans rights & trans safety as optional & ignorable when recognizing basic human rights is a bit inconvenient. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

We all tried to live with the version of the environmental movement that wouldn't deal with its white supremacy problem and now we're here. It really does make everything crystal clear, at least for me.

One of the most egregious errors of common gender theorizing today is how it disregards war and the military as patriarchal forces. This is because the people doing the theorizing are not conscripted ofc, even as those that are are utilized by the capitalism they are a part of.

The thing about being a transmasc who came out as an adult and got a hysterectomy is that it becomes enormously obvious how many people saw my person and worth as solely for carrying pregnancies and having children, and immediately saw zero value in me once I could no longer be used for reproduction

Focusing on what truly benefits kids, with their input, would save us all. I wish that, collectively, we desired a free future for children more than we desired the power to harm or control another adult. Every day I try to imagine that better world for all the children who should get to live there.

More than anything else, the whole world runs on the disregarded suffering of children.

Whew 🔥 "Wednesday" actress Joy Sunday arrives at Pandora Talisman Collection Launch Party.

it’s suicide awareness month and I think you are all aware, so instead

It actually makes me so infuriated that so many peoples analysis of violent eugenicists is to go "they're crazy" like you get that their goal is killing mentally ill people right? You get that thats an ahistorical and antiintellectual analysis that throws away actualyl examining them and their views

We shouldn’t be looking at what causes autism We should be looking at: - how society can STOP STIGMATISING AUTISM - support and services that work for everyone - how to improve autistic people’s quality of life - reducing suicide rates (9x higher for autistic people)

"No cops, no bosses, no landlords" Seen in Saint Paul, Minnesota

I'm gonna say what I said before: Learn how to fight, learn how to run, learn how to hide, learn how to organize.

Mamdani: We need to make public transportation so good that “no matter how much money is in your pocket, you say: I’m gonna use this.”

Echoes of Enrique Peñalosa's “A developed country is not a place where the poor have cars. It’s where the rich use public transportation."

And thank goodness we have that future to fight for

i don't feel the need to entertain arguments about gender including transness or sexuality being innate or not. it does not matter to me. if it's a choice it's a fine one to make. that's what caring about autonomy means

Not to get all 'everything is political!' but destigmatization of discussion on sex is actually a big part of fighting fascism. They want us ashamed. Being open with folks fights that.

Everyone wants to wake up but the work is isolating. Each question you answer makes you ask 8 more. Each revelation makes cruelty harder. But it makes you aware of how easy cruelty is. Awakening is not fun for a long time. And you meet a lot of people who mean it in words only.

Bingo! People are afraid of losing friends which is why they sacrifice authenticity and real safety and security for the illusion of it to fit in even against what is best for them

White people be like well what if a dog had human rights. Well what if a computer had human rights. Well what if a corporation had human rights. Dude, a whole lot of humans are in line first for human rights.

If you ACTUALLY believe AI is sentient (it's not 🫶), then you're using an enslaved being's labor Either way, the answer is DON'T FUCKING USE CHATGPT

As I've been saying and continue to say, from the very bottom of my heart: FUCK David Eby

When youth employment is high we had tfw. When youth employment was low we had tfw hence tfw are likely not the problem Also as I said with you all throwing around statistics many of you don’t know anything about correlation or sample size or even comparing the right data or standardizing the data

THIS. Instead of ppl complaining about workers coming and taking Canadian jobs let’s pay the TFW ppl the same wage as Canadians The program is designed to exploit foreign-born workers who pay into the Canadian tax system but are not entitled to many services Also youth unemployment is not due to tfw

As a corollary to this: any time sex workers tell you a policy is going to rain hell upon civil liberties, shut up and listen. They know how this works better than pretty much anyone.

“How could the benefits not cover living expenses,” you ask? Well, bc in my country, ppl are super ok w the idea of sick & disabled ppl dying. If you don’t believe me, just wait until one of my fellow Canadians jumps down my throat for saying this 😂

It’s really important that ppl understand this bc there are those who would take away what we do have here, & because we still have a ways to go. Being chronically sick & disabled here is still expensive, & can still bankrupt you. Just in different ways & more slowly, maybe.

Respectfully, I would ask all of you to think about the sociopolitical implications of this. If non white people said they stopped showering, child services would be at their doorsteps in minutes. They would be fired for ruining the workspace vibe. They would be harassed for being dirty and filthy

If only they could put their efforts into *supporting* autistic people

you can't cede one centimeter of ground to these "we just need to figure out what causes autism" freaks. it's always, 100% of the time, eugenicist.

Daily bunny no.3068 hopes you get the message

All of the problems in the capitalist west are painful echos of the same problems that have existed across the entirety of this colonial project and only abolition will give us the tools to start making things right. That will be bloody, but so is doing nothing.

Everyone loves to ignore sex workers

The only history more completely buried than anarchist history (that i've found) is sex worker history. If someone was famous for ANYTHING other than sex work, there's no fucking way it'll be mentioned what they did for work.

one of the most consistent things I find in history is that if someone is really famous for something other than being an anarchist, their anarchism will be stripped out of basically every reference to them.

For a labour movement that recognizes that sex work is work

For a labour movement that cares about disabled people, including those who cannot work. For a labour movement that is against transphobia and actually protects trans people in it. For a labour movement that opposes the cops and police violence and supports prison abolition.

For a labour movement that understands the power of a strike.. For a labour movement that stands with, not against, Indigenous blockades For a labour movement that stops the flow of weapons & the whole world for Palestine For a labour movement with migrant workers, and against policing & borders
