RHETORIC: (FAILED) Diabetic children are the oppressive bourgeois class because they rely on insulin and exploit the labor of hard working capitalists for their bourgeois hormone injections.

Transness is not bourgeois. This is a wedge idea dreamed up by some gleefully amoral think tank lobotomite to split trans people and make us fight each other. That we relay on modern medicine doesn't make us any more bourgeois than someone who needs antidepressants or cleft palate repair.

Transsexualism is bourgeois, which is why most of the Western girls I know are crowdfunding their healthcare costs to get it overseas

Are women bourgeois?

Transsexualism as we conceive of it in America is bourgeois, the product of a society that venerates the freedom of an individual to choose. There is no designer vagina under communism, I'm sorry.

i'm a bit mixed on this because i appreciate that consumer reports makes an effort towards testing but i don't really appreciate that it's always in a continually alarmist fear mongering way that exaggerates heavy metal food risk to make sweeping statements based on a small cross section of products

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

Something that I don’t think most non-terminally online liberals are aware of is the degree to which young Republicans are basically unrecoverably feral men, a generation of Oskar Dirlewangers who all speak like Instagram influencers and Twitch streamers

this reminds me of the almost exact same racist content that was in the TPUSA at Virginia Tech chats

look, once in awhile you have to hand it to the neoliberals and not being economic nationalists is specifically one of those instances

Neoliberalism has several sins but, "super high tariffs" and "nanny state scolding about nutritional value," are not among them.

You might think Ryan is exaggerating but I used to go to a regular dinner that gradually got taken over by young Republican staffers and I promise you he is not.

I'm genuinely starting to believe '50501' might be the answer to an AP US History question in twenty years, which is incredible given how it came out of nowhere

A lot of people here talked shit about America’s protest culture in the early months of the regime, but tbh I’m mostly seeing green chutes. No Kings is a dress rehearsal for 2026 when they will almost certainly refuse to seat Congress and the dedicated activists learned a lot about optics from 2020.

I think the basic problem with all these low-effort horror movie adaptations of recently-public-domain cartoon characters is they always make the titular character the monster. Like, nobody gives a shit about a film where Mickey Mouse is a zombie; they want to see Mickey Mouse FIGHT the zombies!

I've never really gotten a satisfactory answer on this beyond the fact that Western establishmentsrian left liberals, especially in the Anglosophere and Germany, just simply identify with Israel on an ideological level.
diplomatofnight.com
Yeah I think it is abundantly clear that Israeli politicians, and not just limited to Netanyahu but even up to Lapid, have a preference for right wing blocs in other countries. The puzzling part is that liberals and left wingers across the board in N America and Western Europe have no response

Grid scale batteries are changing our electricity system. Excellent new visual story on batteries in FT today shows just how far this technology has evolved.

Fasten your seatbelts, this is just the beginning.

i am literally never not tapping the "we need to fund public education and open the schools" sign. there is no moment or topic in which the dearth of basic reading comprehension is not a major force preventing any deeper discussion. a lot of people are functionally meat-based LLMs who parrot tokens.

so one of the things I’ve started to realize with having a notable following On Here is exactly how much of a reading comprehension problem we have in this country

The average person’s notion of gender is as cartoonish and impoverished as a patriarchal trad influencer’s or that of an ‘abolish the family’ leftist, and that means chaos now that traditional gender roles have become economically, socially, and demographically untenable.
eleanor.lockhart.contact
my best guess as to what’s going on with gender and society is that all the discourse around abortion + trans rights bubbled up and caused heterosexuals to start thinking about gender en masse, along with all the other stuff, and the untenability of it all just isn’t something normies can handle
