  • Since you brought up Yemen, it's interesting to compare Google image results for the Yemen genocide and the alleged Uyghur genocide. Search the former and you get pictures of destroyed towns, columns of refugees, mass graves, and starving people. But Google "Uyghur genocide" and it's nothing but pictures of protests in Western countries. You would think that the Uyghur people, being much wealthier than the Yemenese and receiving much more attention from Western journalists, would have an easier time getting those pictures out there.

  • “All over the world, wherever there are capitalists, freedom of the press means freedom to buy up newspapers, to buy writers, to bribe, buy and fake 'public opinion' for the benefit of the bourgeoisie.”

  • And carnists still have the nerve to act like they're the aggrieved party every time they're forced to remember we exist, lol. I can only imagine how they'd act if the positions were reversed and we were winning as hard as they are.

  • Actually, that did happen while I lived with my immediate biological family in my formative years.

    To say nothing of the fact that we're forced to fund the torture and killing of animals in the form of federal beef subsidies. Or that in some cases institutionalized people (in prisons, asylums, etc.) are, in fact, made to eat meat and may very well be force-fed if they refuse to.

    Carnists will ascribe consciousness to computer programs before they ascribe it to animals

    I hate when I explain that I don't do something because I'm vegan and non-vegans try to tell me it's actually vegan

    In this moment, I am euphoric. Not because of any mouthful of flesh. But because, I am enlightened by my moral superiority.

    Movie review: The Venus Wars

  • Crop yields are only going to get worse as climate change intensifies

  • The admin who runs lemm.ee has been shockingly amenable to us for an Estonian anticommunist.

  • I'm visiting my parents, they watch a lot of copaganda, and in every episode I find myself instinctively rooting for the criminals

  • I'm really curious as to what she thinks capitalism and socialism are.

  • Highly developed capitalist countries tend to have low birth rates because people are alienated and atomized and having children is an untenable burden for workers who are already working themselves to exhaustion and barely getting by.

  • To be fair to our autistic women and enby comrades, Its pretty much always been autistic men

    Oh God, this line jogged a memory. On the Something Awful forums, there's a user named Pick who became infamous for posting vile and dehumanizing shit about autistic people despite being on the spectrum herself. Being reminded of her inspired me to go back and dig up some of her quotes, and wow, they are... certainly something.

  • I am suddenly very curious about this book

  • Bit idea: an account that does nothing but respond to posts that mention "tweets" or any variant thereof with "Um, they're called xeets now."

  • Is there such a thing as boomer anime, I thought boomer knowledge of anime extended to "Those weird Japanese cartoons all the young'ns are into"

  • Everyone fucking hates this country, even libs are starting to see it.

    It's still hilarious to me that in 2016 they thought "America is already great" was a winning message
