I love being moots with people and then just never talking to them
Some women are conditioned to be fragile and weak, and to believe that it's a sin to outperform a man. Her feminism would involve allowing women to be strong.
Some women are expected to be strong at times when they can't. Her feminism would involve reassuring her that it's okay to not be strong.
Some neurodivergent people are raised to believe that they're too stupid to ever amount to anything. Their disability activism would involve reassuring them that they're capable.
Some neurodivergent people are raised to believe that they're smart and gifted, and are expected to live up to impossible standards. Their disability activism would involve allowing them to fail, make mistakes, be stupid, etc.
Some children are constantly reminded "you're the child, I'm the adult" in order to deny their autonomy. Their youth rights activism would involve treating them like an adult at times when they feel ready for it.
Some children are treated like adults in order to justify increased expectations or to downplay abuse against them. Their youth rights activism would involve allowing them to be a child.
There is no one-size-fits-all solution to oppression. Each individual person's experience is different. Whatever trauma is caused by their oppression, the activism should focus on undoing it.

I'm yapping again ougg this is a crosspost of my twitter thread but cleaned up
Have you ever noticed how the beginning and end of MSI poetically come full circle? Both bring in religion. It starts with the self-titled and ends with PINK, right?. We'd think this would be the last religious reference from Jimmy, but actually, we'd come across it again, for the last time.
The last track of EURINGER, Two and a half years, is a track from an overlooked album that doesn't relate directly to MSI, but does relate to James Euringer, and quite a lot. We all felt like EURINGER was more of a personally instrospective album, with songs like Problematic, Piece of me, That's how Jimmy gets down, and Fuck Everything, that clearly talk about Jimmy's position about many situations that surrounded him at that time.
The part I want to highlight has an explicit religious context, but is often overlooked, not because itβs "boring," but because itβs in spanish. I translated it.
As a native Spanish speaker, I had trouble understanding this: phrases are cut off, reused, reversed, syllables and words are skipped, whispers along with a tense sound. Why would Jimmy do this? Is he trying to tell us (or not tell us) something?
This wouldn't be the first one Jimmy makes something like this, in fact, it reminded me of Envy, a song that also makes use of backmasking, ambiguous sounds and cryptic whispers to deliver a mysterious message.
I wondered about this and looked back on what we already know. Despite knowing that Jimmy is strongly anti-religion, religion has been (or could still be) a profound part of him.
Jimmy was raised in a catholic school and likely a religious household. His Mexican mom, from a predominantly catholic country, may have instilled this faith in him. The video is in spanish, so I interpret his religious influence as coming from his mom.
My interpretation is: James leaves the table, frustrated by his father's words. He walks out of the house, and we hear him running down the street or getting out of a car until he reaches a place where a speaker/preacher/worship leader is reciting praises.
He opens the door, and we hear the voice more clearly, it makes little echo, so I think it's more like a garage room or empty big room that is used to pray.
(This is what I imagine)
The track then transitions from him being in that room to apparently being in a park or field, with grass, bird and insects around, the tense sound has dissapeared. Could it maybe communicate peace? introspection? melancholy?
For me, I feel that it means this was a flashback, and his mind just returned to the present in his home in New Zealand, where we know there are open fields and animals, hence the sounds.
Finally, the track ends with one simple piano note, which clearly feels melancholic, or contemplative. Itβs as if James was reflecting on something, or a painful memory has resurfaced in his mind.
Itβs truly fascinating, and I believe itβs something worth exploring if you're interested in this topic. In conclusion, I love how these subtleties exist and invite deeper reflection on his career/life.
