this is exactly why "socialized male" is not a useful concept
lesbians have a higher rate of being victims of dv not of committing dv. This is because many lesbians try to date men due to heteronormative pressure before they come to terms with their attraction. The dv they experience is from trying to leave these relationships usually.
Reminder that the 'lesbian domestic violence rate' statistics? The perpetrators are men.
Just killed a spider and feel like shit for it ngl.
So the BBC promised Davidson and StudioCanal (who made I Swear) that any swearing tics would be edited out from broadcast, and instead they left them in despite a two hour delay, and even put a fucking microphone right in front of him to ensure they picked it up - he was sat at the back of room.
awesome lesbian couple and evil and intimidating horse

Point being it just feels weirdly purist to Binarize things unnecessarily. So I just don’t.
Even terms like Tr00n or Tr🅰️🅰️ny or any other offensive or derogatory term ment to be offensive just don’t get under my skin.
It’s the same thing as the while transgender vs transsexual discourse. Both terms come from shitty places but I would say by and large are reclaimed and reused by people apart of the marginalized community they describe. Honestly I don’t mind being called whatever.
In one of Alan Fishers videos he made a distinction with gray urbanism and environmentalism and honestly while I understand the concept I just identify with either or honestly.
Being* I hate that I can’t edit posts.
Convince me I don’t think that they’re delusional for having those experiences or for being spiritual. At the end of the day we just don’t know. That’s why ultimately I am an Agnostic Atheist and not a hardline Anti-Theist who says it’s impossible for the paranormal or mystical to exist.
Like I personally know people who are religious that are infinitely more progressive thinking and better people then many Atheists are. And if someone I trust is a logical person says that they’ve seen spiritual shit/apparitions personally and is in tune with that while it personally doesn’t-
Like, I’m an Atheist but I feel like antitheists weirdly assume being spiritual in any way inherently makes you delusional and while I used to agree with that I agree with that less so now because while some religious institutions are destructive so too can secular institutions be just as bad.
Someone I follow on Twitter admitted to bringing an anti-theist and while I used to be one ultimately I just don’t see any real truth in its critiques.
But seriously, it's just a soulless void of a place. Infrastructure, housing, Minority rights, affordability, etc etc. these empires are self destructive and parasitize on themselves. They can't even significantly reform themselves to save themselves.
They're just going to die.
Because the dysfunction is fucking everywhere. Past nation states and even current nation states outside the Anglo sphere are way less bad atleast. (Not to say I don’t hate all of them.)
All this to say fuck this ecocidal capitalistic settler regime. And all of them for that matter. They’re all dysfunctional hyper commodified regimes that are built on evil and nothing else. A foundation like that can’t stand.
So many American cities just straight up don’t have Transit TO ruin-my city has a shitty bus system that isn’t even BRT and has to share the road with the cars, that’s it.
I’ll always see people in Toronto or in Chicago or Seattle say that they’re transit as been ruined or that it’s dysfunctional and has this and that problem but atleast you actually have a transit system to ruin.
so all this to say while we're good at social sciences hard physical sciences is a whole other fucking story. To say the very, very least.
I literally unfollowed a decent sized transfeminist account on Twitter because they said stupid shit about Nuclear and I’m mutuals with another Anarchist with similar anti-nuke sentiments…
Leftists or Anarchists not knowing shit about economics is a dumb take
Leftists or Anarchists not knowing shit about NUCLEAR ENGINEERING however…

(Not to say this place is amazing either it really isn’t but yeah :/)
It is supremacy narratives and hierarchical thinking/structures that are the problem. You can be spiritual without adhering to said things and be secular while adhering to said things. Anti-theism is ultimately just dogmatic atheism and I don’t fucking care for it whatsoever.
I used to be an edgy anti-theist but honestly I’ve definitely sharply turned away from that. I don’t think there’s any harm in spirituality whatsoever that you can’t find anywhere else including Atheism. Evil people are just evil and will find an excuse to do such.
