  • Yeah. I’m specifically saying bills like this are the more immediate threat than expansionism. I’m suggesting people check around in their own jurisdiction.

    We can react to things with proportional energy to the threat. No need to employ a false binary here.

    THIS is the critical rights stripping that needs to be stoppes – Even if MN is less vulnerable in your opinion, it’s a fair prompt to check the radar and trace the spread.

    Like reproductive rights stripping – it gets through in vulnerable areas and then does a LOT of cumulative damage. In the case of medical care denial, long term damage. This kind of thing? Not so long term.

    Go ahead and just say you don’t think this effects you personally, if that’s the way of it. No need to neg on people who are ready to engage. It’s not like we all panic and pass out. Some groups have learned to pace themselves and refresh their communities between actions. (potlucks. it’s litterally parties and potlucks…)





  • agree. we will have to actively repair gerrymandering and voter disenfranchisement and supression on our local levels if we want change via voting.

    not sure we’ll get that without some Direct Action™

    even then, with the going rate of an hour of work being such shit, mostly only cash-addicts end up running for office… Hard to keep it fair and honest when almost everyone is threatened with hunger, homelessness, and super mean imprisonment if they can’t maintain the finicky contractual approval of a land-owner.

    We have this year to fix it, hopefully, if enough people do whatever they can, or at least stop mainlining the red fascist or blue enabler koolaid.

    think globally, act locally, etc.



  • Modern day Asatru practitioners of good firth have to run constant vigilance against supremicists creeping in. Some folks make it in to good groups from cruel groups and have trauma to work out from being around that vitriolic perspective.

    A lot of the effective work comes down to actively communicating openness and inclusion for practitioners from all backgrounds that are willing to do same.

    IOW Norse pantheon worshipers talking and walking as equal and allied with POC and queer folks all the time makes the right jerks uncomfortable.

    Superman Smashes the Klan is loosely based on a 16-part episode story-arc, “Clan of the Fiery Cross”, from the radio serial Adventures of Superman which ran from June to July 1946.[3][6][8] In the radio serial, “Superman exposed Ku Klux Klan codewords, rituals, and its bigotry—all based on intel collected by activist Stetson Kennedy—before a national audience. The show damaged the group’s reputation and led to a steep decline in membership from which the KKK never recovered”.[6]

  • The monstertruck comercial is for people in my life that I love. Also my own enjoyment.

    I don’t think people who crave high stimulation messaging, or enjoy pantomime or slapstick should be left to the mercy of profiteer programming. Just because I enjoy technical reading and essay style lectures doesn’t mean that works for everyone. I wouldn’t like to leave any neighbors behind.

    Not sure what works for you, internet stranger, but maybe it isn’t socratic dialogue.

    So. Yah, everything from my prior post is earnest and inclusive. Folx can fimd a better place any projected sarcasm or derision.

    on tumblr they say some of the reading comprehension is piss poor. (#iheardupissonthepoor)

    No one needs to thank me or like me, as long as I can have my equitable living rights, yah? so no sweat: keep the emotional labour.


  • people who have access to equitable righta and education (ie girls go to school, everyone has access to the economy and healthcare including sexual health) tend to self-regulate the population towards sustainable levels.

    Stupidity is created through systemic sexism, dumbification, and reinforcement of poverty.

    Baby booms happen when people don’t know how the world, including their bodies, work, and when uterus-havers are isolated and have control over their own life paths and bodies removed.

    the usa before women had equitable banking, voting, education, healthcare, and employment access is a fine example – there are plenty around the world.

    tl;dr overpopulation is an effect of discriminatory and oppressive environments and not a herreditary issue.

    we are born to a bellcurve of smartness; just a lot of people get it starved and beaten out of them and are put on the prison pipeline before they can figure out what’s going on.

    we’ve known this a long time but it’s hard to ‘sell’ to privledged people who didn’t have to think about it and don’t want to talk about reperations for redlining, boarding schools, etc… (good morning and welcome to the Blood Machine)

    can anyone write a monster truck ad version of my comment that is readable at a 3rd grade level, pls?

    also, it’s the power grip and reciprocity. that’s what makes us human.
