Looks like I've finally found a use for my extensive but mostly out of date meme collection lol. Will try my best to add image descriptions where I can!

Have started my own magazine as to not spam others: @my_mouldy_memes

/kbin RTR#9 Protection against spam and several optimization improvements

Today, I started working on a provisional spam protection that should at least partially relieve admins of other instances. Work on this will continue, and the tools will be improved over time. Additionally, a few optimizations have been implemented to speed up the platform's performance, along with corrections for...

Maeve,

No, I don’t think experts really know 100%.

Wrt cognitive dissonance: maybe, I’m more inclined to think they don’t admit it mostly to avoid consequences, legal or otherwise.

It’s been a pleasure, friend.

When someone says they care about religious freedom, they mean....

I want to force others to follow my religion.

Just like "Falss accusations ruin lives" means...

I don't want to be accused.

At no point do either of these speaker care about anyone but themselves. They use other people only as a weapon to delegitamize the complaints of those being silenced/forced.

Bytemeister,

Can you defund both Russian police and army? Sadly I can’t, but I would appreciate if someone will defund.

Maddie,

Say it louder for the old white men in the back who inexplicably still get to decide whether abortion is legal or not!

The unfortunate thing is I think that’s actually the point for a lot of people. They won’t say it out loud, but they think the pregnancy is the punishment for an irresponsible lifestyle and promiscuity, and they think dangerous abortions are the punishment for pursuing abortion.

If you attempt a risky illegal abortion and die because if it, many anti-choicers will think you deserved it.

I reposted this to my tumblr, it's such a beautiful photo.

What he is is a profiteering opportunistic highly privileged bigot playing the system designed by and for people specifically like him. (files.catbox.moe)

a still from Gravity Falls, Dipper labelled "trump, unaffected" is in the back of a beat up truck, holding up a large mirror. There is a rainbow coming at the mirror from out of frame labelled "trump is mentally unstable", the rainbow reflects off of the mirror and shoots back out, that secondary rainbow is labelled...

There is a book about this exact idea!

I haven’t actually read it yet, but it’s on my list.

Indeed! I've seen this online as well. People posting that feminism is "just equality for women, not everyone". That was a particularly baffling argument. I felt I could read the subtext that they were afraid of losing privilege and felt that feminism was a one-sided thing. As if equality wouldn't benefit everyone and help tear down patriarchy and toxic masculinity.

I think that's also one of the reasons why homophobia exists. Men know how badly men treat women they are attracted to: harassment, assault, rape, etc. And some are absolutely terrified of being treated the same way. So persecution of men who like men is amplified so men don't have to be afraid of abuse. Which is both oddly insightful and incredibly sad that some instead choose persecution instead of stopping the abuse.

LinkOpensChest_wav,

As a cis male, I learned a lot from the book “Everyday Sexism” by Laura Bates. It really opened my eyes to the reality that women deal with on a regular basis, and I hope it’s ok to recommend it here.

hellishharlot,

It is. As someone who got a lot of those messages that were directed at AFAB folks and internalized them it was like putting a critical piece into a puzzle. It’s one thing to hear about it and have some insights. It’s another to be immersed in it so late in life comparably.

hellishharlot,

It’s a particular kind of weird as a trans person. You go from being largely ignored while out and about to getting looks of disgust to getting catcalled all within the span of a year in my case.

There’s a sort of, yay I pass from a distance kind of thing but then it settles in and it becomes yet another thing to try and tune out and hope words are the worst of it. Heaven forbid some guy hollers at you and then stops his truck up ahead cause you said nothing and didn’t look his way.

twoshoes,

TBF I’ve known a hand full of men who openly talk about harassing or having harassed women. They just don’t see it as harassment, because they think it’s “no big deal” or that they “have” to treat women like that.

TW sexual assault: I was once waiting for a friend when a very drunk man came up to me and started talking. He was babbling about how he likes to fight, and his ex and so on, when he suddenly shouted (direct quote): “I didn’t rape her! I just punched her in the gob a few times and she spread her legs all on her own!”

I think that’s an extreme case, but not as extreme as one might think.
