Many people are familiar with the Nazi phrase “Arbeit Macht Frei” (works makes you free), but what about “Lebensunwertes Leben”(life unworthy of life)? Equally important, it underlines the fascist precept of “therapeutic killing”
People: Why should I have to tolerate you being late?
Me: You don’t, and I’d prefer you didn’t. Let’s not meet up anymore.
People: . . .
Me: Oh, this was the part where I promise to try harder and feel like you’re secretly grading me over five minutes, right? No thanks.
Guy at work telling me that in his religion you have to treat trans people super nice cause they're closer to god and can curse you.
And honestly, true
@PissPosts @minjinlee11 Why are you reading my original post as aggressive? In this case it’s fine that it doesn’t bother you but it does matter to a lot of people and I was spreading awareness. Go ahead and block
I want to articulate this well, and forgive me if I don’t but it’s hard as I’m just overwhelmed. So many of us are.
The news about Kamloops Indian Residential School is not new. It’s simply not. But the numbers are. And they’re shocking. /1
Self-diagnosis is often actually community diagnosing.
That is someone from the community bringing up that hey, maybe you also have __ because you're displaying __ symptoms.
Or just accepting you as a part of the community.
If you’re neurodivergent and you’re feeling worthless at the moment (as I often feel), I just want to remind you that as a person who thinks differently, you have sooo much you can contribute to the world. 💜
Ppl framing the killing of Antonio Mays Jr. as "just a tragic accident". Fuck that.
His death came directly from securitization in CHOP that saw anything external as a threat. It's policing, it's anti-Blackness, it almost killed Antonio's friend and almost killed kids in PDX too.
I actually think it’s fine to gain some power and clout if you then spend it. I promise that if you stand up in real solidarity with someone really marginalized you will lose any status you’ve gained, which is how it should be
Am seeing some shocked at a new poll showing how many believe core tenets of QAnon. Just 6 days before the insurrection, I explained in detail how much QAnon became ingrained into society & politics over the course of 2020. It was clear by then how prevalent QAnon had become.
Prison is not rehabilitative, it is not correctional, it is not evidence-based, it does not keep people safe, it is not justice and it harms both incarcerated people and staff. Prisons in America equal barbaric torture & will be viewed as a national shame in the history books.
White anarchists especially who feel the need to be sad sacks as some kind of atonement listen, that’s just an extension of white guilt and if you’re doing the work, just stop beating yourself up because it’s actually very tiresome
Not supposed radicals demanding respect from newbies. You’ve been doing this for years or decades or whatever and you’re still that thin skinned and invested in your ego? They’re kids facing a terrifying world trying to assert themselves, like chill
I just see that entitlement attitude directly relating to why there is so much abuse in this fucking scene. I have never seen so much personal bluster. No one has ever treated me like garbage as much as pnw radicals have, especially the old timers
