I think that if post FGO Ritsuka goes and shows Castoria their Modest Childhood Home in which they lived A Normal Life she'll just snap and strangle him to death with her bare hands

lets say hypothetically that i wanted men to die and suffer for all time

#which is more than the money made annually by the 50 biggest companies in the world btw #apparently icelandic women went on an unpaid labour strike in the 70s and it brought the whole country to a standstill can we pLEASE bring #this back!!#a;so the countries with the smallest divides #it isnt that the men do more #its countries with better social care etc #WHICH MEANS the gap still exists #just becomes a class AND gender gap #the average USamerican woman spends more than 4h a day doing unpaid work #which is literally like a second job #imagine what u coudl do with an extra four hours in ur day

Andrea Dworkin, 'The Promise of the Ultra Right', in Right-Wing Women (1983)

#i genuinely think this is one of the most valuable feminist texts we have #if you want to understand trad fems / pro-life women / quiverfullers / antifeminist women #or any woman who seems to act against her own interests #THIS is the text you need to read #and i think if we all had we'd have a much easier time uniting as a class across political divides #andrea dworkin #promises of the ultra right #right-wing women #feminism #feminist theory #feminist text

When Machete became a cardinal, did his parents ever recognize him?

Machete's home village was on the other side of Italy (and separated by the sea no less) and it was small, relatively rural and remote. It's very unlikely many news about Holy See's happenings made their way there. I don't think his parents had any reason to expect to ever hear about him again, he seemed to be somewhat of a lost cause when they dropped him off.

#to my best understanding class divide was so immense you'd be very unlikely to ever encounter a single bishop in person let alone a cardinal #and people didn't move around like they do now chances are you'd die in the same town you were born in without ever leaving it #Machete tends to stick out visually and he's an important figure so maybe he's known by word of mouth even outside of the Vatican walls #if his parents met him they might maybe recognize him but he probably wouldn't recognize them #he doesn't remember much of anything from his early childhood #he doesn't go by his original birth name he was renamed at the monastery and has essentially reinvented himself since he became a cardinal #so ties to his sicilian past are largely cut I think #social classes were very fixed and rigid I believe one of the only ways to move to a higher status was to become part of the clergy #and again you needed to be at least passably literate to do that that was the largest roadblock #Machete may be kind of pathetic but his social climbing skills are nothing short of remarkable #part of it is just dumb luck but he is exceedingly hardworking and very very good at what he's doing #it took him less than 30 years to move from a provincial foundling to pope's right hand man #answered #anonymous #Machete #Vaschete lore

Yet again I'm thinking about the eradication of culture within the THG universe,, I have very complex opinions on culture wars within Panem and if they would exist at all in certain cases but like. Do you think they still speak Spanish in Ten? Do you think trans people can still change their names and wear what they please as long as they meet their daily quotas? Do families with religious ancestors remember to observe their holy days, even if it's in private, or was the eradication of religion in Panem so concrete that they don't remember anything at all? Much to think about

#even though THG isn't centred around its world as much as its politics (and for good reason!) i still find it fascinating to think abt #i have a LOT of thoughts about being trans in panem. specifically being trans as a victor #we know (or its implied mostly by ballad) that being queer isn't criminalised and katniss tells us people can marry who they like #but i can definitely see transness being an issue specifically for district people in the eyes of the capitol #obviously the class divide the districts represent would eradicate any possible trans healthcare #but i can see being trans as something the capitol would celebrate as unique and. almost fashionable?#so district people who have no trans medicare or even knowledge would be naturally skeptical of this 'capitol' thing #<- basically by making it a capitol thing it ellimates the rebellion present in the concept of being trans and keeps poorer ppl in line #just. something something removing everything a community could coalesce around by normalising some things and eradicating others #thg #the hunger games #thg series

john the beloved / mary magdalene

#saint john #mary magdalen #like... there are parallels #they transgressed gender roles/social boundaries/class divides most and were therefore most drawn to christ #when others left him to die alone they stayed - understanding that suffering is bound up in love #and afterward they necessarily turned to solitude - belonging ultimately now to another place #i think they were dispositioned toward mysticism before they met him though #they loved him best!#whatever. im so normal about it #kritstrophies #catholic art

USAmericans will literally live in a trailer working 3 jobs for $7 an hour surviving off gas station food and still call themselves ‘middle class.’

Here in the UK if you’re middle class you’re probably a neurosurgeon with a stable-barn and a mansion big enough to have its own name. US middle class is our working class.

Not got owt to say about it, just really fuckin weird innit. I’ve had a few USAmericans describe me as middle class and I’m like mate… I make half of what you do lol

EDIT: I have since been corrected on this!!! Please stop reblogging this without checking the notes first, I was quite wrong!!!

Once again thinking about Meryl’s fear of worms in tristamp and how that can be taken as a one off “haha funny joke” or how it can be viewed as another way that Meryl’s (supposed) middle/upper class background impacts the way that she interacts with the world.

Worms are one of the few readily available/“staple” proteins (and just food sources as a whole) on No Man’s Land that aren’t sourced directly from Plants. That she reacts to worms with fear, and reacts to the idea of Eating worms with disgust/revulsion indicates either a lack of exposure to the idea of people eating worms (possible if we run with the idea of her being middle/upper class; perhaps the people in her social sphere can rely on Plant-produced proteins and other food), or a degree of separation between the meat she eats and the source from which it originates (something very common with middle/upper class-raised people. There’s a degree of separation between buying a plastic-wrapped steak at a supermarket and butchering a cow).

Either way, that she Is repulsed by worms shows her privilege as someone who can Afford To Be repulsed by worms — someone who maybe hasn’t had to rely on worms as a food source before — and I just think it’s a fun little detail to think about.

#trigun stampede #meryl stryfe #trigun meta #is that what we’re calling analysis now? meta?#regardless #i love meryl stryfe with all of my heart. she is my beloved #also the idea of meryl being middle/upper class is speculation but its something i think can be inferred from the show #given. a lot of things abt her #how she dresses (white clothes in the desert). fear of bugs. being from november + having a journalism degree from a university #which isnt to say she is 100% for sure #honestly im really curious about the class divide in NML as a whole and whether there even IS a prominent middle class #buuuuuut. whatcha gonna do!#originally this was a much much Much longer rant.

There's just something about the way that Olek is so class-conscious when he first encounters Ling Yi.

He frees her from the box but then backs away, giving her space and deliberately not touching her. He sees that she's shivering and offers her his jacket ("it's dirty, but it's warm"), only taking one step closer with an outstretched arm. He glances at her out of curiosity and concern, but keeps lowering his gaze because he knows (despite the strange circumstances) this is a first-class passenger and he shouldn't be making direct eye contact with her.

Something shifts, though, when he tells her his name, and suddenly they're looking at each other the way that a first-class girl and a soot-covered boy from the engine room are not supposed to look at each other.

Even though he offers her his hand as they escape off the fog-covered deck, the knowledge of the divide between them is still there when they reach the open-air compartment. ("I know it's not first class," he acknowledges.) Olek's eyes are downcast again, only for him to grow a little bolder and lift his gaze up to her face. Still, he doesn't get any closer or try to touch her, not even when he returns with food and finds her on her knees, sobbing and struggling to breathe. His eyes are wide, searching hers, as he listens to her tearful words, but it's Ling Yi who steps closer in search of comfort, clutching at him, her arms circled around his back. There's such hesitancy in the way he touches her — he's not allowed to be holding her like this, is he? — but then comes the moment when he finally gives in and wraps his arms over her shoulders, pulling her into his (dirty, but warm) embrace while she cries.

#1899 #1899 netflix #1x03 #olek #ling yi #olek x ling yi #i know we all talk about the language divide #but the class divide has me legit screaming #and then by episode 4 they don't even bother pretending #it's all direct eye contact and hugging and hand holding from that point on
