americans decrying other countries for being one party states is so fucking rich coming from a country where you pick between the Neoliberalism Party and the Neoliberalism With Racism Characteristics Party
obama having MF Doom on his list of favourite songs in 2022 after deporting him in 2010, where he effectively died in exile... that mans vileness knows no bounds huh
there’s obviously a lot of nuance to to this conversation, but I feel like the way that people nowadays talk about friendships is so cold and devoid of love or empathy. like you aren’t allowed to complain or be sad, ur burdening ur friends with ur problems, helping someone through a hard time is ‘emotional labour’ and ‘you don’t owe anyone anything’ and I’m just thinking what does friendship even mean to you then? like honestly? people say ‘I’m not your therapist’ as if therapy is the answer to everything. what a sad world where a paid clinician is the only person you’re allowed to be emotionally vulnerable with. this ultra individualistic mindset leads to everyone feeling alone and isolated and we’ve lost all concept of community and support systems
the idea that sex segregation in sports is innately in some way for the benefit of women and girls has to be the most powerful social psyop in the world bc you really get people on both the right and the left arguing for its continuation on the foundation that women and men are not only different species but that women are the lesser ones. and the people on the left go with it because they really just hate trans women that much
it cannot be said enough that the only reason sports are still sex-segregated is because women kept beating men in professional athletics when they were allowed to compete in the same fields and the people who are saying it’s for the “safety” of (cis) women are openly, blatantly lying. stop believing them.
the way that liberals talk about communist revolutions without acknowledging what came before them is so shockingly deceptive. there are many real criticisms of the USSR but the hegemonically accepted way of talking about it is like if you complained that the fire department came to your house and soaked all your possessions in high-pressure water and hacked down your door and literally never acknowledged that before they arrived your house was on fucking fire
