Sometimes you have to say what you mean, and I mean this: kids should have rights. Should not be raped by their pastors or parents or uncles and have no recourse at all. Should have support external to the family; and privacy, even. Are not property. Should not be nameless, or stateless, or forced into marriage, or shot in homeroom, or denied vaccination against measles and rubella. Children should have rights, even when—especially when—their best interests supersede the desires of their parents. I do believe we have a collective responsibility to ensure that, though we may be the only country in the world that disagrees

As of this writing, every U.N. member state has ratified the Convention on the Rights of the Child but one: the United States.

white christo-facist says what?

I keep SEEING this fucking idea circle of how the US got where we are with this fucking election cycle bullshit of Democrats saying "I'm the only option to defeat Republicans!" And then immediately becoming the "boohoo I can't the Republicans stop me!" Even though Republicans push forward whatever the fuck they want despite the outcry of disdain and it all comes down to this.
It's capitalism. That's why it's no war but class war. He "can't" stop Republicans because his business interests that get him elected don't let him.
He's ceded so much ground just like every Democrat before him that we exist in a christo-fascist state on the brink of total authoritarianism dictatorship that's a complete all hail to any business interest that'll line a pocket because it's all a capitalist shill game.
And NOW we're at a point where I'm angry people won't vote because Biden is basically the only hopeful option at this time because 3rd party candidates are so benign in the grand scheme they basically need to spend 4 years campaigning even for the smallest possible position to make a name for themselves and they're too cowardly STILL to dedicate to saying actual centrist/leftist ideology because they ALSO need the money from big corps to even be able to MANAGE the kind of campaign a presidential run gets them.
Our best options is to vote in the primaries, get as much of a foothold for justice democrats as we possibly can and pray they'll pretend to make laws for the common people as opposed to the corps that actually pay for their campaign and their bills.
However on the anger of not voting thing, how can I even be MAD?! Like the guy is advocating openly for a genocide that I get a front row seat to every single day. Every drop of Palestinian blood lies on his geriatric war criminal hands. The only thing I can think to even say is the trolley problem where we HAVE to make the choice to elect him because our other option is fucking Project 2025 which is literally just full blown facism eroding any semblance of a democracy. Displayed clearly by this meme I've been sharing consistently because it's literally a fucking fact of my existence as a trans queer in a purple state that'll probably become a "Front Line State" in any coming fucking conflict.

And yes it IS an incredibly privileged mindset to think we DONT need to utilize any and every tool to eliminate fascism in any and every way. Even if it just delays the inevitable. But it's STILL demoralizing every single day where they feed on chisling away at the very soul inside of you until you're to bruised and depressed to even groan in agony.
And at the end of it, it may not even MATTER if we vote. The fucking dictator cheetoh puff has these deranged facists in positions of power so that even IF he loses he's going to do his damnedest to completely overthrow the fucking government anyways.
So even IF you TRY to think of this from a trolley problem of "well we can kill the fewest and prevent direct genocide in our own nation as we advocate further forward for change" it all may be totally meaningless and end up in total armed conflict anyways!
Even on a local scale because he's got these fucking people deranged and at arms thinking they're all the second coming of Christ. We still have to try anything and everything in our power because if we don't then we've essentially given up to our own mass death, but how the fuck does this not completely demoralize you on every possible scale with the bullshit process they've created and let get infected by capitalism?
So yeah we keep ending up here because capitalism goes with the ideology that breeds the most financial gain for the people in positions of power. That's facism, specifically totalitarianism/authoritarianism.
Within those two ideologies they don't have to pretend to give a fuck about unions, or whistleblowers, or journalists, or human rights organizations, or even human rights at all. They buy their ticket that only they can afford and they have their ride to power and authority because they have money.
Tired of a union leader causing a ruckus? Congrats you can just get them arrested, or even killed/assaulted so bad they back down. Tired of a whistleblower? Well we've all seen how Boeing is going right now and they don't even PRETEND to give a fuck.
The idiots and the bastards on an individual scale want trans people dead. Those are the people who want POC to go back to being fully oppressed, and want tradwives, and all the other shit. For the people on top all of that shit is just more people dumped into the meat grinder for their profits. They don't ACTUALLY fucking care. They MIGHT find a connection to those ideals to some extent but at the end of the day, whether it's subconscious or conscious, the ideals are a means to an end of complete power and authority for them.
So yeah, here's to another election cycle of hoping that voting for the lesser evil is even enough this time, because if it isn't me and my communities may very well be dead or in outright armed conflict where we spend every second fighting for our lives. Which basically sets us on a nice time frame of probably about a year and a half or so before we're concealed carrying at best and waiting for us or someone like us to be struck down before our eyes.

hey, this is probably dumb, but can I show people ur posts to try to explain that j-Chris's church-mandated bday aka "xmas", is not something I wanna participate in? I've been a Buddhist but my whole life, but one of my relatives has been Christian af and made me go to vacation Bible school. I'm trying to find the words to explain literally everyone around me that it's just. not my holiday no matter how "pagan" it is. I just wanted to ask bc ur posts are about Judaism, but really resonate with my anger at the aggressive Christo-facism in my community, and the overall being over the holiday.
I have absolutely no issue with that friend! If other religious minority groups aside from Jewish people relate to the stuff I post about on this blog, that’s wonderful :^) my blog focuses on Jewish culture and issues, but I know that some features of antisemitism overlap with persecution of other religious minorities. As far as I’m concerned, we’re in this together, and I’m honored that you think my posts are helpful in explaining the problems with Christian hegemony. Good luck friend 💙

Well that's the last nail in the fucking coffin. Today marks the day Utah officially becomes a Christo-facism, with bills passed prohibiting use of bathrooms aligned with gender, and reversing the anti-discrimination laws. I, and countless others in this state, now have been marked by the State. Queer people, people of color, my Jewish roommate. No longer protected.
Thousands throughout the state protested, and almost 50 actively spoke against the bill in the session, but the senate still listened to their gods damned cult before their people.
We are no longer safe.

people struggle so hard with the concept that being fully anti-religion is colonialist because they don’t see a nuanced divide between questioning and dismantling christo-facism and banning religion as a whole, but abolishing religion doesn’t abolish facism. fascism is an evolving monster that will adapt its self where ever there’s a foot hold like in the bad and biased application of science and philosophy, meanwhile the idea of certain religious beliefs being silly frivolous nonsense for savages with no social value has wiped out an incalculable amount of oral history from around the world amongst indigenous cultures and this kind of blasé acceptance of continuing that as long as we include the christians seems like a very odd solution to come to

Open letter to Ted Budd
Mr. newly minted U.S. Senator from North Carolina, spouting off about how the “media” got this state all wrong, how it was a sleepy little state, well I am not sleepy and I didn’t vote for your dumb racist Donald trump ass licking face.  I could not scroll twice down my Tumblr feed without seeing your national ad money telling me how only you can stop inflation, save the filibuster, and other dumb shit stuff.  That’s right national ad money from someplace that doesn't have to get your permission to say whatever lie they want to make up.  Unfortunately Ms. Beasley had no support from her party, and had to fight it out on her own. If she had support maybe you would be screaming at the media about election fraud instead of patting yourself on the back.  
So here’s the deal, I’m on to you: I’m on to your games, your republican lies, your white racist attitude.  I’m onto the gerrymandering in North Carolina, another nail in Ms Beasly’s coffin. You touted yourself as the “great White Hope” I see you trying to pull the funding out of Ukraine I will make sure everyone knows you support Vladimir Putin.  You say anything negative about the brave women fighting for their lives against those islamic-facists I’ll call you out as a woman hater. You try and vote with your colleagues to end Social Security, (your party is fond of calling it an “entitlement” which since I paid and am paying into it my whole working life I am ENTITLED to the money back) I’ll make sure you are connected to elderly and disabled discrimination.  You need to look at how many election deniers got wiped out this election and if you try any of that bullshit I'll try and tie you to the January 6th insurrection.
In short I’m pissed. I’m tired of my vote being gerrymandered into silence. I’m tired of Christo-facism trying to rule this country by force.  I will not be forced into anything bitch and I will protect my wife and daughters with my dying breath.  Understand?

The creators and backers of the campaign aren’t remotely interested in the social justice interests of their potential viewers—only their dollars and eventually their votes. It’s a campaign as underhanded as they come, and we should call out its duplicity wherever the campaign airs or appears.

Christian nationalism is as mainstream as apple pie among evangelicals and Republicans. And Christian nationalists are by and large churchgoing believers whose authoritarian Christianity is a very real and powerful expression of the faith that drives their ascendant anti-pluralist, anti-democratic politics. These are the same religion and politics I was socialized into back in the 1980s, only now with far more power. Pretending this is not the case and insisting on the equation of “Christian” with “good” only reinforces the Christian privilege that pervades American society and gives Christian nationalists cover. The only way to fight Christian nationalism effectively is to recognize it as an authentically Christian phenomenon.
Chrissy Stroop in Religion Dispatches. Christian Nationalism Is Authentically Christian--And According to a New Poll Most White
Reading about lynching and the KKK the "authentically Christian" part  really gets to me and has got me a bit stuck about links to share about White history during this Black History Month.

The authors of the Virginia Statute and the Framers of the Constitution who followed, knew true religious freedom protects the liberty of all, even as they also knew that such equality was difficult to achieve. Religious freedom certainly did not immediately extend to Native Americans, whose religions have been ignored, even crushed, as the government sought to destroy their cultures. It’s been a vast struggle to extend the founding aspirations to all. The struggle continues, and commemorating Religious Freedom Day is a helpful tool in it. We all need to educate ourselves so we’re prepared to defend and advance the right to religious freedom and equality in our time. The more I learn, the more I see how important it is to turn this around.

Powered by an influx of ultra-wealthy conservatives and the ever-expanding regional influence of Christian nationalism, Montana’s reputation as a live-and-let-live state has increasingly given way to the hard-right politics of its Republican Freedom Caucus in recent years.

The ACLU’s Keegan Medrano, a queer, Native advocate in Helena, said Zephyr’s expulsion was the culmination of months of attacks from Montana’s far right.
