the only real discrimination period, for these folks, is against hard-right conservative christians, whose religious beliefs give them a kind of super-citizenship that allows them to either discriminate, opt out of common obligations or dictate to others

I know this is just the grumpy Linux user talking, but for the love of god, everyone. Stop giving out information that you absolutely do not have to. Don't do those ancestry DNA tests. Don't have smart home devices. Don't let your car insurance company track your driving.

Everyday the Trump administration remains in power, women's rights and safety deteriorates further. Andrew Tate wears his misogyny like a badge of honour and encourages men to view women as inferior. It's astonishing that this request 👇is even being made; what message does that send to men?

When we talk about the latest iteration of the segregation movement it’s important to be clear that it’s about transphobia AND misogynist racism. “The bills flow from a fundamental belief that whiteness — both the category and those who occupy it — is under threat.”

Rather than fascism or single-party dictatorship, the US is sliding toward a more 21st-century model of autocracy: competitive authoritarianism—a system in which parties compete in elections but incumbent abuse of power systematically tilts the playing field against the opposition. 🎁 gift article

You know who else played themselves? White women. They thought they were beyond DEI and often used their whiteness to punch down and pull up the ladder behind them. They thought they were exempt. They thought they had more power than they do. Now look at them. They’re the DEI hire too

It is dangerous to think you’re free when you are not, especially when your enemies are winning. One of the most stubborn myths about the U.S. is that people here think they are freer than they actually are. It is a particularly dangerous myth for women.
