As creepy as this is, it's a glimpse into how coercive, predatory men deploy the same tactics to create hostile work environments. Granted he's not her peer or coworker but he's threatening a young woman to give him access or he'll harm her career.
I am trying. You can try. There is hope. There is still a planet, we are still here, ALIVE. Our actions matter. Many tiny actions, you, me, spreading to others, it all adds up. We need to be the change we want to see in the world.

Also Gloria Steinem wasn’t a “CIA agent” lmao.
She distributed a CIA grant to 130 students who were “very liberal Democrats” to go to two Soviet-backed international youth conferences in the Eastern Bloc. The CIA wanted them there as basically soft power diplomacy with students from the Third World. She said she was never asked to report anything back and she was happy to do it because no private donors at that time wanted to send students to communist youth conferences. A huge reach to call it anything other than naïve.
Also people forget that in the 50s, the public view of the CIA was that it was basically the clean, progressive counterweight to the brutish, reactionary, Hoover-led FBI. All the dark stuff we associate with the CIA’s activities in the 50s and 60s wasn’t disclosed until the mid-70s.

Any day we could decide to re-wild 75% of agricultural land and add 15 years to the carbon budget by switching to plant agriculture. Reduce energy use to 1960 levels while maintaining high quality of life. Pause damaging production until someone finds a better solution
