Wow—the Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention (named after Raphael Lemkin, a Holocaust survivor who coined the term genocide) says plainly:

"No more discussions, meetings, reports, sessions, summits…IF YOU HAVE THE POWER, YOU MUST USE IT."

"HISTORY WILL DETERMINE THE RECTITUDE OF YOUR ACTIONS."

one of the really fundamental unspoken US ideas for a long time was that men above a certain social level should never face consequences. this bought us Trump 2 in two ways, both in the failure to punish him and in the rage about MeToo breaking this rule

In a functioning democracy, a president who
-tries to seize Congress's constitutional spending powers
-attempts to rewrite the Constitution unilaterally
-pardons violent insurrectionists who attacked the government
-fires the Inspectors General and DOJ prosecutors

would face immediate impeachment

Anger A Trumpist, Know Your Rights
Border czar Tom Homan is on CNN complaining that Chicago is “very well educated” and people “know their rights” too well for ICE to be able to enforce mass deportations. Good work, neighbors.

My god, I am in awe of these parents. I can’t imagine experiencing a tragedy like they have and I know I wouldn’t have the grace or strength to speak out about scapegoating others while in the depths of my grief. Amazing

Also, fuck Donald Trump and JD Vance. #LiveLikeAiden

Men police women's anger because anger gives women the courage to fight injustice.

And women often internalize these judgments to the point where they hesitate to let themselves or other women be angry, even and maybe, especially when getting angry is the first step in getting free.

Vance has children, I do not.
Only one of us believes in free meals for children of school age, free quality education in public schools, free healthcare at the point of service and government subsidized child care. Which one is the psycho, and which one is invested in society?
