Psychological explanations for why people become fascists (loneliness, boredom, community, feeling ostracized, etc) will always fall short because the only solutions it offers are psychological ones, when the issue of fascism is political and economic.

Homeless encampments are a social issue, not a criminal problem and should be handled accordingly.

just making it dead clear that this blog does not support russia's invasion of ukraine, however also fuck off with that shit if you are demonising regular russian civilians who have nothing to do with this and didnt want a war just as much as everyone else did. politicians are not an excuse for your xenophobia.

A student once asked anthropologist Margaret Mead, “What is the earliest sign of civilization?” The student expected her to say a clay pot, a grinding stone, or maybe a weapon. Margaret Mead thought for a moment, then she said, “A healed femur.” A femur is the longest bone in the body, linking hip to knee. In societies without the benefits of modern medicine, it takes about six weeks of rest for a fractured femur to heal. A healed femur shows that someone cared for the injured person, did their hunting and gathering, stayed with them, and offered physical protection and human companionship until the injury could mend. Mead explained that where the law of the jungle—the survival of the fittest—rules, no healed femurs are found. The first sign of civilization is compassion, seen in a healed femur.

fatphobia is so deeply embedded in peoples psyche that they live in perpetual fear of being/becoming fat. people shape their whole lives around their fatphobia b/c they’d rather be dead than fat. our entire culture and institutions, yes even the medical field work to propagate that fear, branding fatness as a death sentence.‬
