There's no feeling better than petting a cat you just met 😶

Maybe no single intellectual habit that’s more lazy, more destructive, or more common than the assumption that women’s concerns about misogyny or gender inequality in their own lives are trivial and unsophisticated.

[Liv @Liv_Agar]

I think a lot of men hate women. I think it is very common for men to hate women. Even in leftist spaces

@balagonline it’s called trying to win people over who weren’t already won over to the issue. do you not know how persuasion works

[maximal overdrive 🍉📚 @toolate2sayhi]

@aletheia327 wow this is gross

[maximal overdrive 🍉📚 @toolate2sayhi]

@SankofaBrown but they literally don’t. a large proportion of them just say “do the reading”. and when you ask, they’re the most condescending people alive and wonder why people tune out

[maximal overdrive 🍉📚 @toolate2sayhi]

@msolurin they don’t. they recruit like-minded people, then they form organizations that implode within months from infighting because they don’t know how to handle conflict and disagreement like adults

Y’all be dogpiling marginalized folks who tangibly, physically do things to help other marginalized ppl about “ideologies & theory” and this is why we losing the plot

Let’s take a moment to reflect on Black-Palestinian solidarity—🧵 /12.

[Gillian Branstetter @GBBranstetter]

Birthing and caring for children are all forms of labor men like Vance would rather not have to pay for (much less do themselves) so they rely on a mythology that women exist solely for this "purpose" across their entire lifespan. What the women themselves want is immaterial.

[moom @mooomriver1011]

apparently it's completely feasible to ask all women to arm themselves, learn martial arts, stay at home after dark and be vigilant 24/7 but it's suddenly "impractical" to re-educate men and hold misogynists accountable to prevent gendered crimes

[tenekeyia esjuanté @thebapsdiaries]

It’s still fuck anti-Black rhetoric and racists. It’s still Free Palestine.

[derecka @dereckapurnell]

i am grateful to the people who warned us about the limitations of intersectionality as a political framework, about the dangers of political buzzwords without political education, and how Black identity would be weaponized to silence dissent. its all unfolding now

[Ms. Andry Noir, PhD @keatingssixth]

With every sliiight change her campaign does immediately in response to progressive critiques, it fuels ppl even more to stop listening to you fear mongering folks telling ppl to “be silent” and “don’t critique her.” Keep arguing, cause her team is seeing it 🤭

[Dubula @killerguerilla]

That's why it's important to push back against rhetoric like this. Harris glaring at those protesters isn't the face of a Black woman standing up against disrespect. She's a politician using her power to repress people speaking out against genocide.

A lot of liberals seem to think the protesters were stunned into silence by her response like a westwing episode. In reality they kept chanting while being shoved and berated by security & rally attendees. It's exactly the type of shit that happens to protesters at trump rallies.
