I just like to say, "I'll stop deadnaming Twitter when musk stops deadnaming his daughter."
I'm sorry, but when someone's "enlightened centrism" is between queer people having rights and getting murdered in the street I don't really care about your other options. You are a facists enabler at that point.
I know some people on the left have to be the "better" person and all thay but honestly with all the damage republicans have and are doing, I honestly am happy they died of their own stupidity. Prevents them from doing more harm.
Fuckem.
They basically don't have proof of anything. They are just doing political theater to distract from the issues they are causing.
Like the shutdown...
I've always tried to estimate more time than I think a task will take unless I know it's only like a simple task.
If I think it will take a few hours, I estimate a day. A day or so is 3. 3 or more becomes a week.
I've ran into way to many tasks somone else blindly put at a day and when we start to work the ticket we descover a ton of complications. I've seen so many 1-3 point tickets I've seen take multiple weeks because nobody thought about how deep the rabbit hole could go.
I was doing good for months walking at least every other day.
Then I had some things thst came up causing a ton of stress and I just couldn't. And here is sit, months later and I've barely touched my treadmill since.
That's kind of what happened to me. Never needed to study in grade school. Had to scramble and learn how to study in college.
Still didn't register why I had so much trouble focusing or remembering stuff until the last year or so.
Nazi Germany didn't start with the SS. They started with vilifying marginalized groups and blaming the issues is capitalism on their targets.
... You are either woefully ignorant or a troll.
The fuck are you smoking? Nazis were hyper capitalist to a fault and is half the reason their war machine failed.
Republicans are banning books, trying to control what people can say and people can dress. They are stripping rights from every marginalized group, starting with trans people and already moving towards gay people. They also want to strip people of their right to vote, strip women of their bodily autonomy, and try every tactic they can to grab and hold power.
The most well known people on the right are self described Christian nationalists. They all constantly spew fascist rhetoric.
But because you are a white man you don't see any of it. If it's not happening to you then it must not be happening. Meanwhile, the policy implemented by republicans are a mirror of the start nazi Germany, down to targeting queer people.
They aren't getting stuff nationalize, yet, but basically every republican state is implementing some form of everything I mentioned from abortion bans to denying Healthcare for trans people.
When people talk about the rise of fascism they are rarely talking about the nuts online, though that group is dangerous because they radicalize people who are willing to commit terrorism and lead to January 6.
The rise of fascism are the actual policy that Republicans are pushing through, from attacks on reproductive rights to attacks on LGBTQ+ people.
Trans and gay people were among the first targeted by Nazis. The infamous book burning from the time was research from a sex and gender research clinic.
Honestly, M is a better name than X anyway, mostly because it doesn't sound like porn.
Literally the main reason I'm on blahaj zone is because I'm a trans lesbian and really don't want to deal with the shit I've seen on the blocked instances.
The whole point of the fediverse is you join one that aligns with your values and queer phobic stuff is a hard line nope from me. It's like the one place I feel reporting stuff actually does something.
I've been calling Trump the symptom and not the problem since 2016. He is the direct result of the decades of GOP rhetoric. They've always been building toward a demagogue since Regan.
The problem isn't that they think they are super wealthy and controlling everything. The problem is they think they are jewish and controlling everything.
Considering Barbie was PG-13 it is very much not a movie "made for little kids", which is the argument these people use to complain about it.
A lot of this comes from professors wanting comments in assinments and grade on arbitrary levels of if it exists.
I had one class where the instructor would give a vuage "not enough comments" that I did comments like this on every fuction and loop out of spite.
Jesus. I didn't really give a shit about the other drama with the stupid graphs or that prototype. They are a big company with a ton of moving parts and mistakes like thay happen. When it comes to product reviews I never take one source as gospel anyway and mostly watched for their other videos where they just did fun or stupid stuff.
But this? If they don't respond to this the right way I will immediately stop watching any of their content. This is what is important, not stupid graphs. My heart goes out to Maddison and I can't imagine how hard it must have been to write that.
I've seen before how fan bases like LTT's treat other women who speak out. Nobody deserves that.
I have a hard time having empathy for a group that wants me dead for existing...
