back from a night out and I took my usual stickering route home to check on what got scratched off -- come to find someone else has wheatpasted a gender abolitionist feminist poster to a lamppost and tied some suffragette flag ribbons to a nearby fence. Knowing another local feminist has seen my stickers and known she's not alone makes me glad I continued doing this for as long as I have. :)

rape is just a thing that may happen during war. we're not saying it didn't happen. it may have occurred. rape is not uncommon in war. it's not a weapon of war, there's no proof it's a pattern of violence against women, it's just something that happens for some reason.

What is considered “Zionist” in Israel? In the US there is a commonly held perception that Israeli=some level of Zionist beliefs (since you or your family was part of the group that settled in Palestine), even if it’s not the belief of settlement in occupied territories.

Bud I'm not Google. Zionism is an incredibly well-defined ideology and political movement. The fact that tumblr gentiles are unable to read and are also antisemitic by default is not my problem. I'm not a zionist and I think zionism is inherently colonialist and anti-democratic but this is coming from a place of genuine understanding of the ideology, as it should.

And no, Israelis aren't zionist by default just as Americans aren't patriotic by default, because it is a belief system and not an inherent existential condition.

that grace keeps her deception up even after she and tommy have their union is both fascinating and frustrating because she doesn't really seem to dwell on it too much, but i'm not quite sure the intention really was to write her as being this ruthless either. she never really seems to contemplate these contradictions; it invites to think of her as very compartmentalized but the show really never goes there*either*

December 26, 1847: Jews. Write an article against this race that poisons everything by sticking its nose into everything without ever mixing with any other people. Demand its expulsion from France with the exception of those individuals married to French women. Abolish synagogues and not admit them to any employment. Demand its expulsion Finally, pursue the abolition of this religion. It’s not without cause that the Christians called them deicides. The Jew is the enemy of humankind. They must be sent back to Asia or be exterminated. H. Heine, A. Weill, and others are nothing but secret spies ; Rothschild, Crémieux, Marx, Fould, wicked, bilious, envious, bitter, etc. etc. beings who hate us. The Jew must disappear by steel or by fusion or by expulsion. Tolerate the elderly who no longer have children. Work to be done – What the peoples of the Middle Ages hated instinctively I hate upon reflection and irrevocably. The hatred of the Jew like the hatred of the English should be our first article of political faith. Moreover, the abolition of Judaism will come with the abolition of other religions. Begin by not allocating funds to the clergy and leaving this to religious offerings. – And then, a short while later, abolish the religion.

Translator’s note: Though some twentieth century writers have maintained that Proudhon was not an anti-Semite, we find in his notebooks proof of the contrary. In this selection from his notebooks Proudhon’s anti-Semitism goes far beyond that of Marx at approximately the same time, calling not for the end of what Jews represent, i.e., capitalism, but of the Jews as a people. Proudhon’s privately expressed thoughts were elaborated on in the same year as this entry by his follower Alphonse Toussenel in his “Les Juifs, Rois de l'Epoque,” The Jews, Kings of the Era. After reading the passage translated here it can come as no surprise that the founder of the royalist group Action Française, the Jew-hater Charles Maurras, drew inspiration from Proudhon.

Its difficult to think about the full logistics of everything that happened to me, and how it could have gone. In nearly every ending, it goes poorly for me, leaving me desperate. A majority of the time I can meet anyone else from three houses, they will still think of me as some villain.

That I can manage. The odds being poor is something I can accept, as I remember doing quite well. The thing that stings me now, even with everything I wanted. My situation was still likely doomed. I doubt I would have lived come 8 years after the events then given how my health was. Once that time came, there are few that would make any sort of good successor that could understand any of my ideals. Hubert as reliable as he was, could not be any sort of ideologue. Lysithea was the one woman I felt I could trust to stand up to me whenever I felt I was doing something wrong, and her health was about the same as mine. Hanneman could share principles, but hes no governor. Its just the professor, then she will be in the same boat as I was for succession, only with the weight of whatever grief now. Even then, I never knew how much she thought about any of the politics of it. I could never tell how much she cared for the cause compared to caring for me. It was an uphill battle from the start. I am starting to see it for a sheer cliff. I wish I could focus more on the happier memories and the good times. I feel like I make poor company to most of the kind people who remember me. Its a struggle to maintain any optimism now that its not a mandate to keep up morale. But now I'm just trying to enjoy a more daily life here, and I dont know what to do with any of these thoughts.

imo the difference with trans toddler is that khelif was legitimately treated like a girl throughout her childhood, whereas the toddler would be treated like a special boy.

but i think you could make the argument that he wouldn't, because at that age kids are just little sexless blobs and only the parents and maybe his teachers would know, so externally he would be treated like a girl. that's why i liked ms femenaces' response bc he would not internalize it the same, knowing on some level that it isn't meant for him, and socialization works in part because we have an instinct to sort ourselves into groups and fit in. in delusions of gender there's an interesting passage about girls with dsds who align themselves more with boys - not because of an innate "masculine" gender identity but she suggests it's because they sense that there is something different and are trying to make themselves fit in based on what they've observed about gender roles. we make some effort to socialize ourselves so we can be accepted. i was called a tomboy growing up and it's hard when you know you're a girl but you just don't fit in with other girls, so a lot of little girls (me included) become "one of the boys" instead, which is of course a label reserved only for girls, it's part of female socialization. the experience of a boy trying to fit in with girls would be so fundamentally different from girlhood even if on the surface the treatment from strangers is the same because at some point the realization hits us that this all happens because of our female bodies

by Ian M. Giatti | What is a human being? And what does it mean to be a human being? Those were the central questions considered at The Christian Post’s conference, "Unmasking Gender Ideology: Protecting Children, Confronting Transgenderism," where several professionals from various fields with experience fighting gender ideology came together to share their insights...

i love when people on here climb onto their little soapbox and call us all pessimistic maladapted accelerationist doomers or whatever pejoratives theyre using nowadays and all that to scold people for not wanting to vote for the democratic party

[orossii]

it’s a lot of fun seeing how these radical leftist groups-- radfems, “communists”, anti-fascists, anarchists, etc etc end up being functionally no different than the average RBG bobble-head owning committed liberal when it comes to lobbying for people to vote blue no matter who every couple of years. it’s like the democrats let us all duke it out in our little largely-online echo chambers in the intermediary and then mobilize the small “d” liberal democrats that they correctly understand to be ideological indistinguishable from their so-called progressive wing in order to VOTE OUT FASCISM! in the global power center of international fascism. functionally you’re accomplishing little to nothing by catering all of your messaging to people who fall somewhere on the democratic party voter spectrum while offering nothing of substance to non-voters and independents and demonizing normie working class republicans as irredeemable lizard people. so in effect, what are you but yet another demographic within the democratic party’s voter base?
