Arturo Gamboa, a 24-year-old punk musician and son of a Venezuelan immigrant, is the man being held on suspicion of murder. He'd attended protests since 2020 while open carrying a rifle, but had never used it. A friend said: “He’s a good kid. Literally willing to take a bullet for his community.”

A society that isn't systemically transphobic ought to have a higher rate of voluntary detrans ppl because that means its members can *try* even when they're not ready to die trying, that transition isn't a desperate last resort but sth a citizen can freely do

The UK transphobe movement splintering into anti abortion, anti immigrant factions and pursuing other ways that they get to define who is considered a person with rights and who is not is everything being a nail because they're as sharp as a bag of hammers.
Kathleen Stock turning into a firebreathing anti-choice campaigner is one of those things that was in retrospect both entirely predictable but is also just so funny to witness

Hard to believe there was a general election and, notionally at least, a change of Government last year.

If there's one lesson that America can learn from the UK right now it is that elections are not enough.

The myopic focus on electoral success at all costs will prevent you from addressing the actual issues at hand.

Our left wing party won, and we are still fighting the same fights as Americans.

No one being owed a life free of mental pain is not a justification for intentionally inflicting it for the sake of compliance??? like what. Yes a child might be sad if they drop their ice cream but that doesn't mean its ok for me to knock it out of their hands because they wouldn't stop talking

Parent child relationships need not be hierarchical. The mere reality that children need adults due to their vulnerability doesn’t translate to adults having domination over children, and in fact could be seen as an argument against it.
It's not a good hierarchy but it's a hierarchy we don't really have another option for so we have to pretend its good.
“Not all hierarchies are bad, for example, the parent-child hierarchy-“ oh my fucking god how many abusive parents does it take for your go-to examples of “Good Hierarchies” to not be this one.

The Ayatollah can get f- for all I care. My concern is more on how Israel wages war and the fact that it is committing genocide in Gaza. That same state cannot be trusted, to put it mildly, with 'just' overthrowing a deeply unpopular and murderous regime.
The Khamenei regime for decades pursued aggressive operations that left deep grudges among European and Arab states that now won't lift a finger to stop Israel while failing to build effective alliances that would lead Russia, China or anyone else to lift a finger to help Iran

We're at the stage where the Israelis are hunting humans by concentrating them in a few locations, making sure it's extremely overcrowded, and then opening fire.

There has been mounting concern over Dmitriev’s health. The prison medics had, for the past two years, advised that an oncological examination was required. After his lawyer made repeated appeals, the prison did take a blood test for cancer markers. The document with the results ‘disappeared’.

It has been clear since Dmitriev’s first arrest in December 2013 on preposterous charges that he was facing reprisals for his work in exposing the crimes of the Soviet Terror. It is beginning to feel as though there are no limits to the revenge that those behind his persecution plan to exact.
