@swagtiger2006 @misthiOSX The person who made it is a white lesbian who only pointed it out amongst gay men. She wasn’t trying to point out racism, she was trying to paint white queer racism as a distinctly male problem. It was a way to erase the racism of white queer women for her own white guilt

@Blunt_Crayon I’ve literally seen these YIMBY types actively defended deed theft on here it’s crazy man

[HA @HAshnb]

@helenlewis @mattyglesias This is a process you’ve spent the last few years participating in idk why you’re suddenly complaining

[HA @HAshnb]

@spacehand2002 @ghenniss @hilosfemi2 @nikicaga I see your point with anti Indian xenophobia but I’ve literally never seen these accounts talk about Hindutava at all

[HA @HAshnb]

@rubymonpi @trulysoviet The sexual desires aren’t but the way that they’re interpreted and labeled are

[HA @HAshnb]

@ghenniss @hilosfemi2 @nikicaga Ime it’s usually only Islam but I only see this discourse when it shows up on my tl. Still weird that they’re basically silent about eg non Abrahamic religions

[HA @HAshnb]

@hilosfemi2 @nikicaga It’s sus when you only say this about Islam. Sure some of you guys will say “it’s true for all religions” but that’s only when someone points out that you are only criticizing Islam in particular

@StealthRalf @Afroletariat @fawfulfan Champagne socialists are more of a major costal city thing, the twin cities is more working/middle class in comparison

@meowmeowgooner @rmusimg @S___Elliott @DerekPederson3 At least based off of my own experience I see less nepotism in the majority of industries. Retail, healthcare, education etc don’t literally only hire their friends and nobody else

[HA @HAshnb]

@rmusimg @S___Elliott @DerekPederson3 It’s too dependent on nepotism and networking to help most artists succeed who don’t know the right people. Tbf this is a problem that’s basically always existed in the art world but most industries have made way more progress in moving away from nepotism than the arts have

@Joshn4d @andrewperezdc The idea that his success is about his persona is helpful for two demographics: sexist leftists who want women and minorities to shut up and liberals who want to tell themselves that everyone who doesn’t wanna bomb brown children is a Nazi psycho. That’s why ppl ignore policy

[HA @HAshnb]

@Joshn4d @andrewperezdc Based off of my experiences in Maine I’d go as far to say a silent majority of people who are voting for Platner don’t like him personally and are holding their nose because they feel desperate for anyone who they don’t think is bought and paid for

@nicehumanbean @Homiedino The AI summary you gave doesn’t include boat costs for oyster farming, but it is true that taking it over from someone else is more affordable. That doesn’t change his class position though, and there are other indicators privilege in his background (eg prep school)

[HA @HAshnb]

@sportsarecool5 @nicehumanbean @Homiedino Frankly, I think it’s extremely classist that people see his brazen behavior and think that he’s somehow representative of working class people. Working class people don’t get the chance to make mistakes in the way that he has. The ones who do are dead or in jail.

[HA @HAshnb]

@sportsarecool5 @nicehumanbean @Homiedino I will be voting for Platner in November but I’m not going to lie about him. He’s a wealthy person who has an impulsivity problem and has made bad choices, but most are under the impression that he’s a working class man. I don’t think it’s superficial to not ignore that.

@nicehumanbean @Homiedino Not in terms of the assets and land you need. Lobstermen’s setups require way less upfront investment

[HA @HAshnb]

@nicehumanbean @Homiedino Regardless of the scale of his farm it’s still a class indicator. The overwhelming majority of farmers are well off in the developed world. People think “oyster farmer” is a working class job because it’s associated with masculinity

[HA @HAshnb]

@ZaidJilani @StefFeldman Yes. I didn’t go to Yale but had a similar conclusion at my wealthy uni. Upper class people like Platner who want to be engaged in politics are much more volatile and abusive than the average person. Tbf to him this is pan ideological problem though

@ram47532264 @idkijustthibk It’s also important to remember that similar policies were implemented by the pre-theocracy dictatorship in Iran. Modern Iran is an overcorrection to an overcorrection in a lot of ways
