In Iraq, if an 11 year old girl is raped & impregnated by her own father—she must carry the baby to term, or be thrown in prison for life.
Wait, sorry, no. That’s Alabama. And Mississippi.

“The climate crisis reveals that our civilization has never really been organized around science, contrary to the usual Enlightenment narrative. It is organized around capital. Science is embraced when it serves the interests of capital and is often ignored when it does not.”

This is why so many capitalist states in the South are characterized by violence and repression. It is because capitalism *requires* violence. By contrast, the core states can have nice human rights at home because they externalize the violence that capitalism requires.

She felt unsafe while her husband was away working and spent many nights at home alone.
She invented a home security system with a camera and audio. We use her technology today to keep us safe.

It’s only ethnic cleansing if it happened in the former Yugoslavia. Anywhere else and it’s sparkling population transfer.
