the kamala harris campaign was so bad it's crazy. like setting aside all my loonie leftie purity testing positions like "genocide is bad" for a second, even setting aside the fact that biden hideously sabotaged it by demanding the campaign not do anything that might make him look bad like, say, 'promise any differences at all from his unpopular administration' -- the pivot to immigration hawkishness was unbelievably stupid. trump is the ultimate issue owner on immigration, you are never, ever, going to convince someone whose main worry is about Evil Illegal Immigrants Taking Jobs and Doing Crime, to vote for you over donald trump on that basis. kamala harris could have filmed herself executing undocumented children with a shotgun and it would not have moved the needle on this, so all that these ads achieved was affirming for such voters that The Border was the Big Issue of this election and so that they should vote for the Border Wall Guy.

& again i am saying this from the point of view of my electoral politicsona, this is all, yknow, fairly within the purview of uncontroversial liberal polsci shit. Legendarily bad campaign, in any sensible world these people would never be allowed to touch electoral politics again. let alone what would happen to them in any Just world

cyanide doesn't smell like almonds, it smells like bitter almonds, which

1) most people have never smelled before

2) get a significant portion of their smell from containing cyanide

everyone knows that famous niemöller poem: first they came for the communists and i said "heil hitler" because i was an ardent nazi since the early 1920s. then the only reason i ever got into conflict with the higher ups in the nsdap was after they tried to take too much control of church business while i still wanted us to do our persecution of jews and degenerates autonomously. then with how the war ended that was kinda lucky in retrospect. and then no one ever came for me and i pivoted to preaching about peace and shit in post war europe lol.

currently reading a short history of trans misogyny, i really really appreciate that it mentions that a lot of the time that "panic" at learning someone is trans comes way before they decide to murder the person, and it's essentially a retroactive justification for violence. lines up with how many justifications for the murder of cis women end up being (for example) "i thought she was cheating on me" three weeks beforehand and not some emotional spur of the moment thing. it's an excuse that society is way to willing to take at face value and people know they can get away with it.

i think whats most important to understand about like. what happened to nicole ratliker. is that this has been like, the new schema for unpersoning trans women because "she's a pedophile" stopped working. like this sort of systemic weaponization of idpol to paint trans women - primarily twoc from the third world - as this class of nazbol racists for talking about their own oppression became an utter industry standard when "she's sexually degenerate" is too obvious

re this post: everyone in the notes on that post, going on about terfs and transphobes, you need to realize theres big groups of transmisogynistic people in the queer and trans community, who target transfems in the name of their fucked up vision of "trans unity" where transfems are silenced and exiled until these transmisogynists don't have to hear about or acknowledge their own transmisogynistic bias anymore.

it's these same kind of people who mass harassed and reported predstrogen and got her several blogs repeatedly deleted, long before terfs and the ceo joined in on the harassment. and that's just one of the bigger examples. genuinely - i mean this 100% seriously - if you see people talk about:

how tme/tma are useless terms

how transfems talking about transmisogyny are "dividing the community" or are "transandrophobic"

how transfeminists are baeddels or are the new TERFs or are TIRFs/transradfem/TRF/etc

how transmisogyny is rooted in misandry and that misandry exists and is a serious problem in queer communities

these are the dogwhistles of these transmisogynistic hate & harassment movements from inside queer & trans communities. learn to notice them and stop spreading this transmisogynistic bullshit just because it's coated in trans positive progressive sounding language. otherwise you are complicit in prepping up these transmisogynistic hate movements

the state of transmisogyny on Tumblr leads to people essentially posting "not all men! except trans women, who are evil men"

I'll legit never understand how Catholics are the ones with the "joyless" reputation. A person will convert from catholicism to protestantism and suddenly they abandon all their old friends, they have to always dress in suits/ankle-length dresses, they shun alcohol and sex and music and literally everything "of the world", and start believing Carnaval is literally Satan's holiday. Protestants are 1000% more joyless than Catholics ever managed to be.

keep it real Yankee sounds like australian slang for a handjob

[grunkhilde]

it's crazy how normalized misogyny is like you find out a man doesn't believe women are people capable of equitable rational thought and logic reasoning as men and you're considered weird if you express discomfort associating with him

Help my family rebuild their lives🙏😭

‼️WE NEED YOU‼️

Hello, I'm Wasim, from Gaza. I'm 20 years old. My family consists of 6 members: my mother, father, 1 sister, and 2 brothers. We were displaced from Rafah to Al-Mawasi in Khan Yunis, under severe bombardment and destruction, without anything, in a small tent that can not accommodate 5 people without the necessities of life.😞💔😭

As was supposed, I was studying at a university in the month of October in which the war broke out, but my university was destroyed, and the universities in the entire sector were destroyed.

Help us and donate to us. Make a difference in our lives. We need you. We are without work and without home😭😞🙏

‼️Helping me means helping 5 members of my family..‼️

🥶We're freezing🥶

Hello, I'm Wasim from Gaza, in Al-Mawasi specifically... My family and I were displaced from Rafah after hardship, bombing, displacement, and hunger.😭😔

Now we have been away from our city and our beautiful home for 9 months. We have lost our house that my father built stone by stone and he worked 24/7 to build this house. But the occupation destroyed it, and no house remained in my beautiful city remained intact.😭💔💔

We are now living in a tent or semi-tent, which does not protect us from the cold of winter or the rain. Our lives are very difficult.😔😭

Thanks to your donations, we have been able to buy food and flour, and now I am asking you for help to buy a tent that will protect us from the cold of winter. We do not know what it means to sleep because of the extreme cold.🥶

This is our tent made of fabric and some nylon, not closed on one side. We are freezing from the cold. Help us to buy a new tent. You are our last hope.😭🥶🥶🙏

I also want to ask for help for my mother, who is the most precious thing in my life. Without her, I am nothing...

She has a back cartilage disease and is in great pain. She needs physical therapy, medicine, and vitamins, and I am unable to provide them. Help my mother receive treatment.🙏🙏😭
