we live in age of great moral panics about things that don’t matter and zero moral outrage over some of the most egregious societal sins we’ve ever seen
@Rhomaic@basedbriwa Entirely fucking inaccurate. They were protesting throughout the war, were on hunger strikes, imprisoned and force fed. There were some who did not support universal suffrage, but some did. Look up Alice Paul There’s a movie Iron Jawed Angels if you can’t be bothered with that.
Si eres de esas mujeres hetero obsesionadas con casarse porque ya tienes más de 30, te recomiendo preguntarle a un hombre heterosexual por qué le pidió matrimonio a su pareja.

It is truly so bleak how easily humans fall into antisemitic tropes rather than face and accept that the world is complicated in innumerable ways and there are no quick and easy solutions.

No pretendo exagerar pero el arte va a salvar tu vida. la música, la pintura, la cerámica, la escritura, el tallado, el tejido… el acto de CREAR te va a salvar.
Within digital environments — structured to persuade — interaction is optimized to the point of rendering a real encounter superfluous; the otherness of persons in the flesh is neutralized, and relationships are reduced to functional responses. Dear friends, you, however, are real persons! Creation itself has a body, a breath, a life to be listened to and safeguarded.
When simulation becomes the norm, it weakens the human capacity for discernment. As a result, our social bonds close in upon themselves, forming self-referential circuits that no longer expose us to reality. We thus come to live within bubbles, impermeable to one another. Feeling threatened by anyone who is different, we grow unaccustomed to encounter and dialogue. In this way, polarization, conflict, fear and violence spread. What is at stake is not merely the risk of error, but a transformation in our very relationship with truth.
