cons exist because women loved star trek and organized events to meet actors and writers and build community around enjoyment of the show.

men saw the community women built and shoved women out and then claimed they did it… many such cases
okay grandpa, let's get you to bed

The left critique of patriotism isn't "let's be ironic instead" (???), it's "creating a special identity around the nation one happens to live in cultivates a reactionary tribalism that is at odds with humanitarian universalism"
I just don’t understand the mindset of constantly ceding this ground to the right. We can wrap ourselves in the flag and patriotism and fight for what is right instead of being oh so savvy ironic cynics.

they were fucking lying. the entire immigration system is a fig leaf over the reality that this was functionally impossible for most people before, so that the threat of deportation could be used to discipline labor. it's just that cultivating bigotry eventually gets you people who are bigots first.
A common refrain in the US among normie immigration-skeptics, going back decades now, has been "I don't mind them coming, but they should come legally." It's interesting to me that this line has largely disappeared from contemporary anti-immigrant discourse in favor of outright racist bigotry. Why?

patriarchy doesn't really have two genders so much as one gender and various failed attempts at it, and virtually all the neuroses about trans people comes from the sense that people are either cheating at the game of manhood or refusing to strive for it (which casts its very importance into doubt)

When you see "monk" or "druid" or "paladin" in a ttrpg, that is not a fictive role that emerged from the source but a chimera of cultural, movie, and genre fiction references. If you are not aware of the references it draws from you are given very few hand holds to grab onto.

The extent to which ttrpgs rely on metatext has served as a strength that I think is poisoning the well as the sources of metatext are now eating themselves.
It's funny how much the gameplay motivates you to get your people to quit being useless stoners and get on ~~cocaine~~ yayo

Let those of us who haven't worked for a private military death squad in the Middle East cast the first stone.

I hope people know that there is no going back to the world before the US military starting blowing up random Venezuelan fishing boats.

This divorce was a long time coming, at least since the US destroyed the Middle East, but i think the final straw was freezing Russia out of the financial system.

Violent nationalism and technocracy is the future of this country, the question is whether or not the slightly nicer version of it wins.

It's fascism backed by financial capital, and while it's capable of horrendous abuses of people under that financial boot, outside of that it's totally reliant on the already-crumbling might it inherited from the industrial capital that they outcompeted and killed/exiled
