Like from what I understand you’re not allowed to touch the workers because then it becomes prostitution. So like. A bunch of boys just get together and sit down to watch some girls dancing naked? And they just kinda grin at each other and say “hey isn’t it awesome when there’s boobs?”...
Strip clubs have been around for a long, long time. I assume in a time before the internet and being able to see naked women on demand, going to a strip club was a more novel activity.
It’s also a social activity. Why do people like going to the bar? I’ve always thought going to the bar was stupid, but plenty of people have fun doing that. A strip club is sorta like a bar with near-naked women dancing. I’ve met women who like going to the strip club, either with other women or with their guy friends.
Trump and Trump supporters seem to be holding up the Abraham Accords as Trump’s big accomplishment in the region, which would’ve supposedly led to a resolution of the Israel-Palestine conflict.
Of course the problem is here is that peace does not equal a just solution to the conflict. The Abraham Accords were always pro-Israeli, with the explicitly stated goal of isolating the Palestinians in the region and forcing them to come to the table with Israel, which they would’ve done from a weak position at that point. And of course the Abraham Accords relied on quid pro quos that led to further destabilization in the region - selling weapons to the UAE and Bahrain during the Yemen conflict, destabilizing the Sudanese peace process, and recognizing Moroccan sovereignty over Western Sahara. So although Trump is going to tout peace and we’re going to be subjected to a new round of “trump was an antiwar president,” his idea of peace is a pro-Israeli one and far from what our idea of what peace in the region looks like.
they’re doing Sydney Sweeney like they used to do Taylor Swift. A white, attractive, apolitical blonde lady onto whom they can project their desires for a subservient aryan tradwife and a white ethnostate. Sydney, like Taylor, avoids politics completely (as far as I know), allowing the far-right to cast her as their anti-woke heroine in whatever fantasy they have in their heads. Of course the second she does the slightest thing perceived as “woke” they’ll drop her, just like they dropped Taylor (although I guess first they’re gonna run themselves in circles trying to justify all of Sydney’s “woke” actions as some 5d chess move that’s ackshually owning the libs, like this guy seems to be doing with the GLAAD thing).
But yeah she also has larger than average breasts so they seem to be obsessing about that because I guess they never left middle school.
Performatively pretending to support movements against oppression is just no longer, in any way, less frustrating than the conservative tendency to just outright support oppression, and that’s all liberals do....
it comes and goes. I tend to hate the ones I have to deal with and are exposed to most often. At various points in my life that has been liberals, at other points it’s conservatives. They’re all shitty though.
Japanese flag could also be considered a religious symbol
edit: furthermore, something else that has annoyed me but maybe someone can explain: why do we have a Philippines burning flag emoji? They have an ongoing communist insurgency - surely this would be the place where we do something like we’ve done with India and have (unfortunately) done with Israel and find another flag/group to direct our hate towards?
Read Settlers? Back in my day we would “read” our local party paper before “settling” into our local slumlord’s office for some direct action. smh kids these days.

edit: though I need to put in the evergreen reminder that Environmental Working Group is not really the best. Extremely hyperbolic. There are people on this site who know more about it than me. I don’t think one should discount everything that comes from them, but EWG should be treated extremely critically. This “story” is pretty much just an EWG press release with no other sources.
I’ve been enjoying reading Krupskaya’s works on education and how to study (e.g. How Lenin Studied Marx). I’m wondering if there’s anything similar in the Marxist canon (or just worth reading for Marxists in general) on the subject of study and self-education. I’ll try to compile the Krupskaya I’ve been reading in an...
