The liberal bourgeoisie grant reforms with one hand, and with the other always take them back, reduce them to nought, use them to enslave the workers, to divide them into separate groups and perpetuate wage-slavery.

We were already globally in what the future will call World War III but the US airstrike on Iran has unequivocally pulled us into it and there is no denying what era of history we are in.
It's here, and it's going to get worse.

Kids think they’re autistic because of social contagion, says mum who wants hers to catch measles Children are catching autism from other kids, according to a mother who took her own offspring to a measles party.  Karen Hoyland, 35, who believes both vaccines and having friends cause autism, activ...

“It’s a difficult balance. On the one hand, I want Finley to catch measles. On the other, I don’t want him getting peer pressured into a life of correcting my grammar.”

“On the third hand, I’m his mother and that makes me an expert in human biology.”

At the end of the Conquest saga in the comics and end of Season 3 in the show Mark commits to killing any villain, including his father, if it means saving people because he sees his inaction as leading to more death.

Comics are notorious for wanton destruction being commonplace and never truly weighs on our heroes.
Superman v Braniac levels Metropolis? No matter, Kal-El won.
At least with Invincible our characters feel guilt and change because of the violence around them.

I disagree.
While The Boys is a prime example of violence and gore for the sake of it, Invincible makes characters deal with the destruction that happens around them.
Mark feels the weight of the deaths around him and makes the general populace more than just fodder for the story.
At least, imo.

Russia's parliament burning after being attacked by Boris Yeltsin, 1993 [1080 x 743]

Russia's parliament burning after being attacked by Boris Yeltsin, 1993 [1080 x 743]

Remember how Yeltsin set the Russian parliament on fire? Because no one was passing his neoliberal economic reforms Yelstin ordered tanks to fire at the building with the legislature still inside and that’s how #democracy was restored in Russia

For context, this place employs the most Tim Burton-esque townspeople I've ever had the displeasure of working with.

Ultimately, the greater reason for why transgender support has been eroding is that the Right is afraid of everything and hating on trans people is lucrative business. $215 million in anti-trans ads won the Republicans an election.

Gamergate never ended. We are still in the era of man babies who can obtain your personal data from a legal source for a small fee.
