people really think working class means "when you work" jrjfjfnfnnd. Working class is determined by your relations to the means of production, or essentially, the way by which things are produced. If you work to live and must continue to work in order to stay afloat, that's working class. If you're able to extract value through capital, or investments, you are the bourgeoisie/landowning class/whatever.

You make money when you work, they make money when WE work and spend, that's the dichotomy between working class and not.

This is the first visualization of a black hole. Calculated in 1979, on a IBM machine programmed with punch cards. No screen or printer to visualize, so someone MANUALLY plotted all the dots with ink. (730x385)

This situation in Sudan makes me so so so so so mad and angry because they CUT OFF the Internet so people can’t say what’s happening there and they rely on US to be SAVED because they’re currently living a NIGHTMARE they can’t even go to the streets NORMALLY and they can’t do ANYTHING ABOUT IT BECAUSE THERE IS NO INTERNET.

Lesbians still making posts about how bad it is for bi women to use butch/femme:  We know! We heard u! We’re trying to make our own terms and have them used widespread but we need to get the WORD out for them to be commonplace and that’s hard when literally nobody but bis reblog posts talking about bisexuals lol! It’s not like we all follow each other. At this point the only people trying to take ur terms from you are lesphobes or young bi girls who straight up don’t realize they aren’t generic wlw terms because they haven’t learned the history bc literally no one is out here trying to include and teach bisexual kids shit about their gay lineage, everyone’s too busy trying to push it under the rug. 

bi equivalent of femme: doe bi equivalent of butch: stag

There are more for nb bis and such you can look into but there’s the basics! Look I’ve even designed flags you can find if you scroll through this tag! (i didnt come up with the terms)

wild how people had a lot of feelings about an empty building burning down in paris but when the lives of over a hundred sudanese civilians are taken in a massacre, most of the internet wants to stay mute. y’all cried legit tears over a piece of white history being on fire but turn the other cheek when african lives are being taken violently.

So who is Scott Morrison?

Morrison has been representing the NSW electorate of Cook since 2007 for the Liberals.

He served under Abbott as the Minister for Immigration and Border Protection (a portfolio that would eventually be passed to Dutton). This portfolio involved the indefinite detention of refugees on Manus and Nauru.

The detention of refugees has been labelled torture and a violation of human rights by the UN

When he was immigration minister he interfered with refugees who were going to get permanent protection visas and asked ASIO to slow down their security checks so he had time to change the legislation to prevent having to grant refugees protection.

He supported Donald Trump’s Muslim ban and said it was a sign that the world was “catching up” with Australia

He used children in detention as bargaining chips to get more political power

Refugees have died under his care from poor medical treatment

A refugee had to tear out his own infected teeth due to poor medical care

The absolute cruelty of Manus and Nauru has led to high rates of depression and self harm.

The Senate gave Scott Morrison unprecedented power over Asylum Seeker’s lives, including the ability to ignore international law, previously agreed human rights obligations, to send Asylum Seekers back to countries where it is known they’ll be tortured even though every other country recognises this as wrong, turn back boats and ignore them, and he could block any protection claim for whatever reason (which he did not need to divulge why) and his decisions couldn’t be challenged.

Outside of harming refugees he’s also been doing some horrible things for Australians:

He wanted to drug test sewage to see if people on welfare were on drugs

He voted no in the plebiscite

He attacked a Muslim child for practicing their religion

He spent millions to erect a statue of James Cook in his own electorate

Scrapped funding for homelessness services

More things that he’s voted on can be found at TheyVoteForYou.org. Here are some examples:

Decreasing availability of welfare

Getting rid of penalty rates (which low income earners need to get by)

Making it harder to get Australian citizenship

Reducing corporate tax rates

Turning back boats

Voted against refugee protections

Voted against marine conservation

Voted against a Royal Commission into Violence Against People With Disabilities

Voted against investment into renewable energy (so is weak on climate change)

Voted against protecting the great barrier reef (which is dying from climate change)

Voted against increased media diversity (which suits him fine as the Murdoch media empire is pro-Liberal)

He’s a racist homophobe who attacks the poor. And he’s the 30th Prime Minister of Australia.

Dunno if anyone outside the UK has noticed, but Britain in the last week has decided that tipping milkshakes over fascists is what we do now.

To the point that McDonalds were asked by the police to stop selling them, and it didn’t help at all.

Someone with a gourmet giant shake today just drenched Farage and he looks like a sad milky weasel. Blessed day.
