The Christian fascist worldview necessitates that any and every life path that differs from their ideal leads to suffering, they believe that ensuring the "other" lives and dies in pain brings them closer to God and that building the Kingdom of God requires the building of Hell alongside it.
Sorry, but we now have a once-per-six-months PrEP injection with a 96% efficacy in reducing HIV infections, and the response is to limit PrEP to only pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers? What?!
It's going to be much more expensive to provide lifelong treatment than work on prevention.

right, labels are communicative and descriptive rather than prescriptive and taxonomical, and part of their existence is about communities and subculture - negotiated and shifting - rather than precise and abstract clinicalization. this trips people up, b/c the conditional acceptance of
Ive always kinda felt like a lot of folks really want to be "right" about their sexuality or are extremely particular about their labels.
Self labels are fine but the idea of being "perfectly right" about sexuality feels kinda impossible to me. Its complicated and extremely personal

Of course it has to be the website with "practically no fascism" the one of two where you can actually get a suspension -even if temporal - for celebrating a particular piece of news.

Repeating myself. Bluesky is filled with fascists who could almost think saying "uwu" makes them leftists, except they don't think. That's why users are so proud of their inability to engage with any criticism or pushback.

Assholes are not unwelcome on bluesky, the main thing that's unwelcome is any kind of criticism or pushback. Assholes love being able to blabber and bully and misinform without opposition.
I'm delighted for BlueSky to stay small, for assholes to feel unwelcome, for virality not to be a feature, etc. Twitter had constant growth and "public town square" and it came to suck and led straight to enshittification. I want a chill place to talk with friends, meet weirdos, and see cool art.

Yeah, bsky is the teletubbie panopticon. Rather bizarre how proud some people are of being caged into a prescriptive hivemind. Guess they fit a profile.
So no, bluesky is not devoid of far right dunces, just the specific aesthetics of the ones on tv.

This is a vital message: one of the larger reasons BlueSky is refreshingly free of alt-right shitlords is because in the early days we made a gentleperson’s agreement to starve these fuckos out and it worked. No likes, no quotes, no engagement. They got bored and left. Please keep the Old Ways.

The right wing woman is not insincere in her politics, but she *is* tactical: she believes that sexual and reproductive service to right wing men will earn her their protection, affection, and material support. She is wrong.

webp took a while to adopt because it was new, not because it was bad; it's actually better than jpeg and gif, and has advantages over png. Not only do most image visualizing software can open webp now, many websites do accept them for upload.

Some people will call you luddites, but at least luddites had the balls to get out there and impose their sense of justice with their own hands. All you people have is crying to the government to make the thing you don't like go away.

Siempre me ha llamado mucho la atención cómo los conspiranoicos están convencidos de que nos ocultan la verdad pero no les cuesta ni un poquito creer real cualquier obra de ficción.
Todo es un plan maestro para tenernos engañados, pero en el cine sueltan la verdad de vez en cuando, por las risas.

Me estoy leyendo Miedo y Asco en Las Vegas y resulta que toda la teoría de la conspiración malita del adenocromo viene de tres páginas de esta novela donde Hunter S.Thompson se puso creativo inventándose una droga.

worship of beauty as paradigm of virtue, by extension:
accusations of degeneracy, specially in art

bullying "nerds" into mass comformity
