It exposes directional alignment; you still seek to limit, not expand, who is allowed to be human. Yes, you have set your limitation more inclusively than our fascist gang of white supremacists; it doesn't mean you're not also setting limitations & they'll use your limit as long as it serves them.
I can't trust politicians who are anti-trans. Not because I'm "only searching for perfection" which is what centrists will be accusing me of for the rest of my life, it's because if you're not pro-trans you'll be garbage on lots of other issues too. Being anti-trans NEVER exists in a vacuum.

darkly funny that we have generations of speculative fiction writers coming up with clever names for authoritarian initiatives like The Ministry of Kindness or something that sounds kind of cool. And then when it happens irl it’s loser shit like THE BOARD OF PEACE

The new PlayStation 5 game Code Violet falls far short of its daring and hubristic claims of being the next Dino Crisis. Read @dialacina.com's review. www.avclub.com/code-violet-...

It’s WILD that I’d never seen the video for Send Me An Angel considering I heard it every single Monday at the local Goth/Industrial Night for probably 5+ years. And when hearing it doesn’t immediately put pretty taffy-pulling ladies in my head, I immediately think of this: youtu.be/UUImM1-7DBE?...

the left already proposed the solutions. you make healthcare free, make it possible to live off one job instead of three, reduce the cost of housing, you'll see more kids. just because it's not couched in some weird neo-natalist attention seeking substack content doesn't make it unrelated.

The US and other countries face aging, shrinking populations. Conservatives have shaped debate over the issue. Some liberals say it's time for progressives to weigh in.

So now there’s a real sense of “this could happen again immediately without any lead time,” and that’s really frightening.
Also, a lot of us spent years being like “they’re lying about doing this to keep us safe, they’re doing this for profit,” so sort of stunlocked by seeing it so openly admitted

I know it’s probably deeply annoying to see Americans go “holy shit, the nakedness of this” after our history of indigenous genocide and global regime change, but what is especially scary about this is that the more recent bullshit alibis at least took some time to drum up and put into place.
Trump: "We're going to have our very large United States oil companies go in, spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken infrastructure and start making money for the country. And we are ready to stage a second and much larger attack if we need to do so."
