Sadly People Got Too Tolerant Of Christianity We Need The Mythical Annoying Atheists To Make A Comeback

here’s your reminder that a lot of the violence against women and homosexuals in africa is perpetuated by white christian missionaries.

white christian missionaries are responsible for the death penalty of homosexuals in uganda. they keep going over there and reinforcing the believe of homosexuality being a sin.

it’s their fault that some african girls and women have experienced unfathomable acts of violence — by constantly influencing them to engage in purity culture.

death to christian missionaries and anytime they go to a country or tribe where they are not welcome and get killed for it, i laugh and smile. :) remember to persecute your local evangelical fundie. <3

wild how many "karen gets karma" and "karen is put in her place" videos there are on youtube top results, yet so few incel equivalents. just "what incels believe", "the world of incels", "why incels exist". why do men with awful beliefs get analysis videos, explanations, understanding, and agency but women with awful beliefs get put in their place on camera?

Didn't wanna add this to the last post bcs it's a bit off topic but HEY WHAT THE FUCK??

Wow! What a great idea, it's not like there's ever been a severe weather event that ended up killing a bunch of people who only speak Spanish because they did not have access to appropriate warning systems they could understand due to systemic racism treating them as disposable-OH WAIT NO THAT DID HAPPEN.

Actual horseshit. Spanish is the second most spoken language in the USA, this is just another sign that systemic racism continues to devalue the lives of anyone who isn't white and it will get people killed. I'm not kidding, I don't fuck around with severe weather warning systems, and if you take even the shallowest look at the history of meteorology in this country you will immediately see how many people have died due to not being properly informed about tornados and other natural disasters. Anything that makes it harder for the average person to know if a goddamn tornado is heading right for them or not is a miscarriage of social justice and should be corrected immediately.

Idk what can be done to restore the channel, but in the mean time please look out for your friends, family, and neighbors, especially if you live somewhere prone to natural disasters and extra especially if they don't speak English. If The Weather Channel won't step up to ensure that the flow of information is easily accessible to everyone who needs it we're gonna have to do it ourselves.

What the actual FUCK.

the true reason “not all men” sounds absurd to me (aside from the ignorance of statistics) is that it fundamentally misunderstands misogyny. “not all men” assumes that male supremacy is not an ideology like Nazism or fundamentalism might be. additionally, it assumes that male supremacy is disconnected from male violence. if a white supremacist killed a black innocent, you would not disconnect his ideology from the crime. but male violence must be psychological, not ideological. he beats a woman because he himself was beaten as a child, etcetera.

misogyny, loosely described is the dehumanization (not mere dislike) of women. thus it takes many forms: objectification, pedestalization, decontextualization, caricaturization (or stereotyping), etc. BUT FUNDAMENTALLY, the ideology of male supremacy centers around one core tenet: men are entitled to women for anything at any time. misogyny will, given time, result in male violence and exploitation. but it begins with entitlement. misogyny is a man feeling entitled to a woman’s body. to a girlfriend, wife, prostituted woman. but it doesn’t have to be solely sexual. he can be entitled to a woman’s subordination. he can be entitled to her kindness or attention. he can be entitled to her time and effort. he can be entitled to her support and loyalty. he can be entitled to her service and ideas. he can be entitled to her career and finances. there is no limit to the expression of male entitlement toward women. and that is what makes a man a patriarch. any person a misogynist. that a woman or girl, by virtue of being female, must be an endless fount of whatever one wishes.

misogyny is uncritically expecting your girlfriends to support all your decisions. misogyny is a man expecting his mother to cook and wash after him. misogyny is a boy getting angry that a girl has genuine, logical counter arguments to his ideas. misogyny is a boyfriend expecting his girlfriend to be 100% available to him whenever he wants attention or feels needy. without returning even half that energy. misogyny is stripping nuance from prominent female figures whether historical, fictional or celebrity. it is the denial of a woman’s interiority and needs. misogyny is a pastor that expects women to defer to him on spiritual matters. it has so many flavors and languages and it has no limits. male entitlement toward female people knows no limits. it’s TRA’s demanding access to women’s female spaces and calling any woman or girl that expresses discomfort or argues for her rights “inconsiderate bigot cunts.” entitlement to a woman’s agreement. it’s the government banning a woman’s right to terminating pregnancy or self-defense against sexual violence because governments are entitled to workers and soldiers.

and so, “not all men” is absurd because there’s virtually no man that does not have some level of this entitlement and expect it of at least one woman or girl in his life. especially because even women do not escape misogyny. men’s entitlement to controlling or overpowering a woman in some way (as the prime hallmark of the identity of a man) is omnipresent, whether or not it escalates into male supremacist violence. but again, once the ideology takes root, that women naturally owe men themselves or some capacity of themselves, violence (or neglect in the face of it) is almost always certain to follow. in which case the question for a woman doesn’t become a matter of “if” but “when.”

all men are entitled to women and girls and believe, as a result of being male supremacists, that they are owed our labor, bodies and minds. this alone makes all men (and boys) weaponized.

dangerous.

I mean, ‘all work is slavery under capitalism’ is REALLY compatible with ‘“sex work” is bad.’ Like, the obvious logical points would be ‘all work is coerced/slavery in a system where you have to work to eat and live -> coerced sex is rape -> ‘sex work’ is rape and should be abolished.’ It’s inconsistent to say, ‘all work is bad… Except for ‘sex work’. Without a really good reason why this is the one kind that’s not coercive.

i hate when i’m talking to a leftist about why i hate prostitution as a feminist and they hit me with the “all work is slavery under capitalism, you just have a moralistic view of sex” as if i’d disagree.

capitalism is literally antithetical to radical feminism, and i was socialist before i was a radical feminist.

also, why wouldn’t i have a moralistic view of sex? i have a moralistic view of everything; i think everything we do is political, and that includes the kind of sex we have and the rape we find socially acceptable. duh.

anticapitalist e-commies when you say that the sex industry is exploitative

”Feminists think the goals of Tra’s and MtFs are unconnected-“ and you spent an entire book giving me really good reasons to continue to think that. This book says that the reason males are misogynistic is their fear of being perceived as feminine, therefore feminism should focus on helping males out of that brain hole. And the thing is… Feminism has tried that. Libfem bullshit has BEEN babying men and blaming women for males cruelty for supposedly being the people who won’t let them hold purses or whatever the fuck.

Has it worked? I wouldn’t say so. I look around and still see women suffering. I think the reason males are misogynistic is because they benefit from a hierarchical system that treats women as property. I think this happens regardless of any secondary factors. I’ve seen too many feminine males defend pornography to think defense of pornography comes from some place of self loathing instead of their desire to get off no matter what. The goal of radical feminists is female liberation from a system that sees them as the property of males. The goal of ‘trans feminism’ is the liberation of femininity from the shackles of masculinity. I can say that’s a fine goal, but they are so fundamentally different that they require different movements.

“I have a tracker in me,” read the cryptic note, found in triage by a greenhorn doctor — scribbled by a woman in the emergency room.

She claimed to have been implanted with a GPS tracking device of some kind — an assertion not unheard of, but never the less unusual.

Dr. A, anonymous for safety concerns, rolled his eyes — ordinarily, such a note would be a sure indicator of mental illness, for which a psychiatrist would need to be summoned.

But this woman appeared lucid. Sane. Not at all paranoid or delusional.

And she had an incision.

So an x-ray was performed, and medical personnel gathered to view the results. But they stood breathless in disbelief — indeed, while they didn’t find a GPS tracker,

“Embedded in the right side of her flank is a small metallic object only a little bit larger than a grain of rice,” Dr. A recounted for Marketplace’s Dan Gorenstein. “But it’s there. It’s unequivocally there. She has a tracker in her. And no one was speaking for like five seconds — and in a busy ER that’s saying something.”

“It was a small glass capsule with a little almost like a circuit board inside of it,” the 28-year-old doctor.

Shock turned fast to concern when the doctors grasped what the presence of the object signaled about the 20-something woman’s life — and why she’d handed over the bizarre note.

“It’s an RFID chip. It’s used to tag cats and dogs, And someone had tagged her like an animal, like she was somebody’s pet that they owned.”

In fact, the unnamed woman had been treated as a pet — a possession — by her boyfriend, who sold her for sex and pocketed the money she brought back.

She was one of an innumerable amount of victims of human trafficking — a colossal problem in every corner of the globe, including the United States — where Dr. A has residency at a hospital in a ‘major American city,’ Marketplace discreetly noted.

That modern day slavery is alive and unfortunately booming, even in the U.S., might jar the somnambulant masses — after all, schools rightly cover the nation’s history of antebellum slavery quite thoroughly. But human trafficking and exploitation constitutes a modern iteration of baneful practice.

“Very plainly,” Katherine Chon, director of the newly created Office on Trafficking in Persons at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, told Gorenstein, “human trafficking is when one person takes advantage of another person for some profit.”

Sex isn’t the only reason people buy other people — human trafficking sadly staffs a number of industries with forced laborers, from the menial and repetitive tasks of manufacturing, to domestic service.

Under threat of violent punishment — or worse — victims often endure horrific trauma and find it difficult, if not impossible, to alert others to their circumstances for assistance.
