Same. Took me forever to figure out any queerness on my part because the oppression from race was so much louder and more difficult + destructive that it required far more of my attention
It's so good. LeninWeave was running an antiZionist reading group on Hexbear about it but idk if that's still going, I haven't gotten a tag in a while. Could check the theory comm?
To your other comment, yes, this book is such a hard read. Not because it's dense, dry, and academic; rather, because it's the opposite. It is full of pain, it's very insightful, I feel like every page brings up feelings and new ideas to process

I also wouldn't frame it that way because Biden and the DemoKKKratϟϟ are as much Nazis as are the RepubliKKKanϟϟ. I will never stop pointing out that the Dems are Nazis because they worked tirelessly to genocide Palestinians in Palestine.
Well, a white woman asked me out a month ago. I was going to swear off dating, especially dating white people, but she seemed really nice and I'd been enjoying talking with her so I said sure. It's been going ¿great? I don't understand, this is so surreal.
She made some comment early on about being worried she didn't know enough about anti-racism for me and I said, "that's a fair concern. Are you willing to listen and learn? To support me or at least not get in my way if I'm in some fight with mutuals over them being racist or oblivious? To not peace police me either in personal life or in my opposition to our fascist government?" She said yes, and has been honestly doing so much better with it than any previous partner, even a more radical one. I'm shocked. She's not as politically educated but is getting up to speed quickly because the nature of the political moment is so radicalizing. She even managed to learn to say my name correctly with the phonemes that don't exist in English.
She made some comment about feeling like she wasn't doing enough, and I pointed out she's stepped into a major logistical and support role for me and the work I'm doing, way beyond what I'd expect of a partner. But she wants to be supportive and is good at logistics. I told her: "If I am the tip of the spear, you are the shaft."
What the fuck. Life's looking up for me as the world goes to shit. What the fuck.
Yes and also maybe it's an attempt to weaponize right wingers' own misogynistic beliefs against them.
Exactly. I'll sleep with a military wife if she earns redemption for sleeping with the enemy, namely, by killing her imperialist husband in his sleep. Not before then. I'm not giving orgasms to my ideological enemies
Thanks! I literally said "I'm too old and burned out to so anything but healthy relationships, so this is how I'm doing things. Meet me where I'm at and we can have a good time, if not then the relationship will have to break.". And it seems she's actually stepped up unlike my ex who talked a big talk about wanting healthy relationship dynamics but was lying the entire time.
The brunt of US tariffs — 96% — have been paid by US buyers, research from the Kiel Institute for the World Economy, a German think tank, found, while about 4% of the tariff burden was paid by foreign exporters. ...
Well yeah that's how tariffs work right? Those bastards made my covid masks from China cost 50% more so I am legally entitled to do 10x the equivalent amount or as close as possible to it in property damage or public fraud.

It's spelled The New YorKKK War Crimeϟϟ because they've supported every imperialist war. I remember them manufacturing consent toremoved Iraq. They've never not been an imperialist rag. May as well drop the pretense and change their name to Der Stürmer
I watched the 1st 30 seconds of it when it came out and people were hyping it up, and then decided I didn't want to because it seemed scary and I was a chicken. What makes it terrible?
I keep racking up wins and I don't understand how. If a year ago someone had told me life would get better I'd have told them to cut out their lying tongue and choke on it. Oh wait, I did. Same with 3 months ago. And yet here we are. What the fuck. Life is weird.
And the nice thing, for me, is that life getting better has not dimmed my anger
My "western chauvinist fascist" alarms start going off whenever I see someone going all :frothing-fash: frothingfash about killing Muslims, even when "but they're religious zealots!" is the excuse. Whatever the excuse, it still disgusts me.
The most charitable guess I can hazard is to suspect this KKKracKKKer was making the very common western atheist anti-christian mistake of generalizing his experience of being oppressed by Christianity and then applying that to a completely different religious, cultural, and political context. That's an explanation, not an excuse.
It's always a case of the oppressor using fighting words or direct actions of harassment to get us to lash out and them crying and hiding as the victims while we get brutalized.
Yes. And some argue that this means "nonviolence" is the only way of beat them at their own game. Such people are fools who believe that fawning will being them safety even though that never has and never will work. And in my experience, speaking up about such abuse gets me crucified anyway. If whatever I do will result in them still doing harm then I figure I may as well harm them back.
Oh fuck I'm gonna weevil!
