this has been commented a million times but i can't help but reaffirm it. the entire proposition that traditional education deserves to be liquidated in the face of this fails to answer with any theory of actual pedagogy, let alone the phenomenon of "achieving the process of learning in the pupil"

We always see men’s refusal to change their private sphere rolls as personal failings by individual men—deadbeat dads, good for nothing lazy men, freeloaders off of women’s caretaking labor. But what if what those men actually demonstrating is a kind of gendered class solidarity?

The problem, as we know, is the ambient hate of women, which is internalized by women and externalized by men and women.

GOP: burning a flag disrespects the people who fought and died for that symbol

Also GOP: hahaha the White House is ours and we'll bulldoze it if we like, just be glad we left you the other half for now

“Working class” in a lot of political discourses is a polite euphemism for white male.

Punditry as a theater of masculine identification and insecurity has been one of the defining intellectual trends of American life for the past decade.

You all every day:

there’s something distasteful in the way people describe the poor as having only their economic plight guide their values. it feels almost condescending, as though they can’t walk and chew gum and think that disrespecting an historic office is bad.

"normies do not care about this thing and so it is no use raising a stink" is imho just an excuse for not doing politics, which is the job of making normies care about something

Welcome to the resistance, comrade

Almost every major news story this week is about how the entire economy is now gambling, scams, bribes and theft.

Women aren't a 'real' minority in the minds of many libs and leftists so hate speech against women is not to be taken seriously

If you keep lowering your standards to “win” against the other side, eventually you’ll just be on the other side

The most American candidates are from cities and suburbs, they work in service or white collar jobs, they can be women, they’re liberals, they earnestly love pluralism and constitutionalism. The median Democrat is a 55-year old lawyer holding a sign that says “Arrest Stephen Miller” AND THAT’S OKAY

Trump refused to prosecute these survivors in a U.S. court, where he would have been forced to provide evidence for the claims he’s been using to justify these extrajudicial murders.

Now, Ecuador says it will not be detaining the survivor from their country.

Who exactly has Trump been killing?

The thing is, judging by their electoral choices, Maine likes octogenarians

Virtually anything is better than a nazi so this is an easy choice

this also drives me insane, this idea that it is the most normal thing in the world for a young (white) man to have a nazi curious phase. it isn’t!

my woke take is that entirely too many people feel entitled to the benefits of a social contract while not feeling bound by the responsibilities of said contract

Trump: "I'm allowed as you know as president, like 50% of the presidents have used the Insurrection Act. Everybody agrees you're allowed to use that and there is no more court cases, there is no more anything. We're trying to do it in a nicer manner, but we can always use the Insurrection Act."

Political parties must shift immediately and dramatically to the left to avoid alienating these frustrated and abandoned young women. Am I doing this right?

I realize that all the "we are going to win" inspiration posting codes as aesthetically liberal (being left is being unimpressed) and invites the responses you'd guess from a certain genre of more radical than thou poster but still surprised at the particular condescension strategies people go for

“Women are cringe” —a reflexive bigotry that a kind of shocking number of people have mistaken for a politics.

If a condition of being a socially acceptable woman is to spend thousands and thousands of dollars and endure untold pain in order to cut yourself open and mutate your face and body into shapes that do not appear in nature then I think that might be a sign of gendered oppression, actually.

If this seems laughably trivial and inadequate to his crimes, keep in mind that it is a much, much greater consequence than most rapists ever encounter.

There is no conceivable argument that these ships, even if we assume they were carrying narcotics, could not be dealt with in some other way. I think we can just drop the caveats and say: This is mass murder.

Women are taking pay cuts as companies mandate return to office Researchers are identifying several key factors behind why gender pay gap – which had narrowed steadily over the years – has suddenly widened.

"For the first time since the 1960s, the earnings gap between men and women has widened two years in a row...with women earning 80.9 cents for every dollar a man earned in 2024. That compares to women earning 84 cents for every dollar a man earned in 2022."

It is not difficult for men to express their feelings; they do so all the time. What they mean is that they don’t get the response they hope for—or the one they feel entitled to from women—afterwards.

Probably the actual advice that most young men need is that no one finds self pity appealing.

Any form of media that involves an angry man telling an audience what to be angry about for several hours a day is probably not good for the human brain
