modern sycophancy is a byproduct of white neoliberal capitalism and its failure to respond to the most base needs of those lives it has captured. the fear of being economically and socially sidelined creates paranoia, alienation, and intra-group silencing that echoes back to the powerful as consent.

I sincerely believe that men cannot handle this. women may be falling in love with their chat bots, too. But I don't think they are categorically attached to its flattery to the same degree.

hearing gay men say they won’t date bi men i’m gonna start calling them “gold star fags” like baby it’s GAY SEX stop being so dramatic

building a feminism that does not attune itself to how gender marginalization happens laterally will never succeed in its apparent goal of deconstructing patriarchal oppression. lateral patriarchal violence is still patriarchal violence. one can simultaneously be a victim and oppressor.

ask any bisexual man who the most homophobic person they’ve ever met was and watch them list their ex-girlfriends

contrapoints has decimated any shred of credibility philosophers may have had after she mishandled the palestinian genocide. what a little crybaby; “if i can’t be the smartest, then no one can!” maybe you’re just stupid and feel a lot of resentment about that? maybe you weren’t made to be poignant?

spongebob already explored the dark underbelly of bikini bottom through squidward’s suicidality, but what about mr krabs? they say money is the root of all suffering, after all.

there is no such thing as a perfect victim. there will never be such a thing as a perfect victim. victims come from every walk of life, every community, every marginalized group. victims can be any age. victims can be dangerous. victims can be mentally ill. none of these negate their victimhood.

if i was in the same room as jimothy i’d give him a little slice of watermelon. as a treat.

got a follow from someone on twitter and their bio was “pornography is hate speech” and it’s gotten stuck in my head. it’s cool how people have differing opinions that i’ve never even considered. but damnit i’m considering it now.

“First they came for the communists” no amount of warning about these outcomes would have done enough. neoliberalism is a death cult. fascism is a death cult. whiteness is a death cult. we must respond appropriately, as the only vanguard party left.

“learned helplessness” is a mass psychological victim blame of claimants who have made the rational observation that their needs are non-binding at the level of obligation. they are not needlessly giving up, they are entombed in a system that conditions them to experience neglect as personal fault.

it’s all “abolish ice” this and “dismantle ice” that. bitch i think we should throw poop at ice.

replying to dudes who flex that they’ve “never broken a bone” with “well i’ve never pissed the bed.”

transphobia will never be justified via feminism because advocating for one oppressed gender by subordinating all others is just another patriarchal hierarchy of domination. this is why radical feminism ignores the components of itself it cannot subordinate. otherwise its illegitimacy would be overt

liberals seem to be asking themselves “how do we make sure trump never happens again?” but this is the wrong question. not only is trump one in a lineage of racist fascists, but he was a predictable one at that. they still want to treat the “alt-right” like it’s a political aberration; it isn’t.

i’m noticing the development of the “soft left” who believe that if they act nice enough and back “the right people” electorally then they won’t be culled when they come for the communists. it’s respectability politics, but the prize is a fully fascist police state
