But honestly seeing both the collapse of monogamy and the American empire makes me all warm inside.

Some of y'all need to hear this: participating in cancel or call-out culture isn’t a substitute for organizing against institutions and structures of power. It can feel like action, but it doesn’t replace the harder work of building movements capable of changing material conditions.

...who studied colonization in the 1950s as a psychological problem. At its root, the colonial mentality is an obsessive drive to dominate, control, and subjugate everything and extinguish all life: nature but also the spirit of people.

I really think the colonial mentality (both colonizers’ and colonized minds) is a mental illness. It should be treated with the seriousness we reserve for things listed in the DSM. There should be yearly updates building on the work of Franz Fanon...

This asymmetry is how authoritarianism gains ground. When one side accepts anyone, no matter how amoral and the other rejects everyone who isn't perfect, then only devils thrive.

The left, by contrast, enforces an almost impossibly high standard for those in the movement: a single misstep, an outdated opinion, a nuanced position can be enough to exile someone entirely.

The right applies virtually no moral threshold to its leaders: credibly accused predators can hold power without consequence, as long as they deliver politically.

Judge them now.
With judges.”

Real harm should be named but movements lose themselves when carceral punishment replaces proportion, relationship, and real transformative justice.

The US government will evacuate white South Africans from a fake genocide but not American citizens effected by the war in Iran the US started.

That's crazy!

It really makes sense now why the started with Venezuela. Secure their oil before destabalizing Western Asia and disrupting the oil flow.
And it kills 2 birds with one stone. Meanwhile Cuba is being strangulated so they'll be too weak for an eventual invasion.

“EVEN IF YOU START A NUCLEAR WAR, WE WILL CRAWL OUT OF THE ASHES AS SEVEN-LEGGED MUTANTS DEMANDING THE RELEASE OF THE EPSTEIN FILES.”

The John Davidson tourette's induced N-word outburst at the BAFTA's towards the Sinners Cast is where we see the intersection of racism and disability. Because if the harm was towards a white audience, there would have been an apology issued already.

The amount of racism the cast and crew of Sinners has gone through has been insane. I'm not a fan of the movie but it's genuinely been vexing seeing that level of racism.

Ok hear me out: what if, instead of releasing the epstein files, we release Luigi, give him a copy of the files and just let him cook?

Some cold water: not every boundary is based on a rational value, and not every desire for freedom is healthy.

Some of my safer sex standards for partners:
-Recent STI test before we first have sex
- HPV vaccinated
- Few months of dating before I fluid bond
- They must test after sleeping with someone new, and open STI/safer sex talks with new partners.

Do what works for you, this is what works for me.

We need to kill the idea of the "ideal polyamorist": never jealous, cool with everything, doesn't even need much of a safer sex agreement, has multiple partners and is compersive. And If you're not that, you're not really polyamorous? We didn’t leave one script just to pick up another.

Everyone’s talking about America’s Next Top Model doc but am I the only that's always seen reality TV as cruel to me. It preys on vulnerable working-class people psychologically, by dangling a carrot. Cheap to produce, modern Circus Maximus, the only ones it really empowers are studio heads.

Puritan leftists are a hive mind. Colonial politics is a horseshoe, on one end is MAGA, and on the other, puritan leftists. Neither tolerates plurality of thought.

Today I realized even egalitarian polyamorists can be pussy whipped. Just because they’re polyamorists doesn’t mean they’re as good with friendships.

I think about it constantly: the world's richest man, potentially the first trillionaire, owes his fortune to our last white supremacist state's zero-justice ending.

That's why 90% of South African land remains in white hands today. If Nelson Mandela had embraced capital flight and redistributed anyway, we wouldn't have Elon Musk.

If South Africa had pursued true justice post-apartheid, redistributing wealth instead of the sham Truth and Reconciliation process, which let perpetrators keep ill-gotten gains by admitting harm (many didn't), things would differ.

After apartheid's fall, they moved to America, where both now help rebuild a white male power structure. They're global colonizers.

I often reflect on the transcontinental Nazism and white supremacy ties of Elon Musk and Peter Thiel. Musk's maternal grandparents were Nazi Party members in Canada who relocated to South Africa for its apartheid system. Thiel, a German whose family did the same, joined them there.

And the revolutionary antidote is community. Don't isolate yourself in a nuclear family. Nuclear families are vulnerable fiefdoms. The ideal is supposed to be community.
