The stock market or anything like it should be illegal. Profits from workers' labor should be returned to them and the capitalist class should be re-educated into helpful members of society.

This is a compromise to the historical alternative.
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

The best game has its third edition. So many successful games have been built on it. If you’ve played, written, or published PbtA games, pay it back a little.

This game deserves all the eyes and all the hearts possible.
If you backed that Avatar game a while back, you need to back this. Possibly at the pay-it-back level.

there's a reason epstein himself was a big fan of evopsych!! evopsych, sexology, phrenology--all of these are pseudosciences that seek to "naturalize" "render biological" what are actually patterns of SOCIAL violence that emerge from and in turn reproduce social-sexual hierarchies.

and this is to say nothing of how concepts like "crime" and "sin" actually boil down to "disobedience to the rightful authority," and as long as the authority in question (god, the state, police, judge, priest, father etc) determines no disobedience has occurred, then no crime has occurred.
when you understand that patriarchy views children as sexual property it all makes sense. there's no hypocrisy. exposure to queerness & transness threatens to "corrupt" the father's property, to "lead them astray" into self-determination, to taint their future sexual value. CSA is permissible as >
Thatcher's government did this with Section 28, banned the "promotion of homosexuality" as a danger to children, while actively protecting Jimmy Savile and who knows how many other pedophiles. It's the same damn playbook.

sexual violence is THE patriarchal technology of oppression. wherever there is any kind of oppression--colonialism, genocide, capitalism, the state, the police--there is sexual violence as its frontline operative mechanism. the child is THE archetypal object of legitimate disciplinary violence.

I cannot begin to properly articulate how upsetting it is to have had people baselessly accuse trans people of being groomers and pedophiles only for it to come out that they were deliberately doing this as part of a project to provide cover to actual groomers and pedophiles in positions of power

If you were to wipe out misogyny from our society you would need to rebuild it because this is a core component. It's perverse that the fascists are correct that western society as they see it cannot exist without oppressing black people and women. You would have to rebuild every brick.

The eternal struggle with rules discourse is trying to get a majority of people to understand rules are the medium. Rules. Are. The. Medium.

the atomization we let ourselves become comfortable with, especially post-covid, is unsustainable and will be the death of us.

i think we should do what people of the past always did during times like this. meet up more irl, cook for your friends with communal dinners, even share groceries.

if jeff bezos announced that amazon was going to stop being cruel to their workers, his "net worth" would plummet. it's not actually cash. it is a flow of power upward based on the promise that that power will be used to continue the harm that got that person in that position of power to begin with

For Arc Raiders to ride the wave of human sociability all the way to the bank, while also being so contemptuous of the thing that makes us social animals in its own workflow demonstrates a lack of artistic integrity that I find impossible to ignore.
