I have a proposal for those who want to end freedom of speech, particularly from government actors.

So here's what I propose be the first law under the new "no freedom of speech" proposal: We lock up everyone who proposes we abridge another person's speech using state or corporate power.

Since freedom of speech is so stupid and useless, nobody should be opposed to such a law, right?

"Press Freedom" will remain a bitter joke and a vast hypocrisy while #Assange hasn't been freed...

I. Cannot.

>The Chip Shortage Has Just Begun
If it's the same shortage like what happened in 2012 with HDDs then it's 100% bullshit.

Wenn eine gute Bekannte sich weigert, mir ihre Gedanken und Gefühle zum Ukraine-Krieg mitzuteilen und mit mir darüber zu reden . . .

If only there was a group of people campaigning for bodily autonomy all this time, this might not have happened. Oh well.

The same people who last month could not define what a woman was and wanted to force people to be vaccinated and wear masks are the same people who today will know exactly what a woman is and scream my body my choice. We live in a 🤡 🌎 and I fucking hate clowns. Enjoy the ride.

Clownworld has finally leveled up into Hellworld.

If feminism critical of trans activism is "white feminism," why do some of the most prominent court cases on the topic involve black women?

Like Raquel Rosario Sanchez,(*) who sued her university for failing to protect her from harassment by trans activists. Although she lost the case on grounds that the university was not expected to protect her, the judge acknowledged the hatefulness of the trans activists who were sending her threats of violence and otherwise severely harassing her.

Or Allison Bailey, who's currently preparing to sue Stonewall UK for homophobic workplace discrimination. She was made a persona non grata on the basis of her belief, as a lesbian, that lesbians do not find people with male bodies attractive and that people with male bodies cannot be lesbians.

Back in 2018, Linda Bellos was accused by trans activists of threatening violence, a case they've lost. She had said in a video recording that she would defend herself if she was physically assaulted by trans activists like the way Maria MacLachlan was.

This "white feminism" sure seems to have a lot of figureheads who happen to be black.

Maybe accusations of "white feminism" are often just used as a tactic to demonize feminists?

(*) Sanchez is from the Dominican Republic. I don't know if she would be considered black, but she's certainly not white.

much like the LOTR setting itself, we live in an age much less glorious and beautiful than ages past. but we do what we can to fight against evil.

You will buy nothing, and be happy

Als #Expertinnen und #Experten zum #Ukraine-Krieg werden uns immer wieder #Militärs und #Politiker vorgesetzt, nie jedoch #Pazifistinnen und #Pazifisten. Diese #Menschen sind die wirklichen Experten für #Frieden. Es gibt viele engagierte Friedensorganisationen mit den entsprechenden Friedensexpertinnen und -experten - ich nennen hier mal stellvertretend die #DFG-VK.

Why is it considered offensive to suggest that the phenomenon of young women identifying as non-binary might be related to internalised misogyny, but it's just fine and dandy to say that feminists who feel unwell about transwomen in female-only spaces must be feeling so because their trauma with male-bodied people makes them unable to think straight?

Are people's feelings always valid, or are others allowed to analyze them and form their own theories about others's feelings?
