Just listening to a reddit stories podcast and was just reminded of something. If someone ever demands you not speak to specific others to limit "triangulation", they're not afraid of you ganging up on them, it's out of fear of you discovering their manipulation.

I hate that the phrase "just let people enjoy things" has been co-opted by rw losers that want to blindly consume w/ no critical thinking bc I need to have a short quippy way to tell someone that their film school brain take on how superhero movies are the death of the art form is dogshit

It will forever be a stain on the left how much it downplayed, overlooked, & defended every possible red flag with someone like Platner & wash their hands only when the tide looked to be turning I'm glad Hasan finally admitted it, but I simply won't forget his rhetoric for the past few months

Graham Platner’s support from popular commentators and influencers has rapidly collapsed in the aftermath of allegations of sexual violence published by Politico.

Hot take but I think the whole "republicans are using trans issues to distract you from class issues" talking point on the left is a form of abandoning trans people It implies both that our issues aren't "working class" enough & that Republicans don't really want us dead, we're just pawns in a game
