See this? This is the trap. This is how they get you. You appeal to outrage and emotion, you make a bold statement like “sex offenders don’t have rights” and whip up that righteous anger, get people all thirsty for blood and punishment, right? And that’s their foot in the door. Once you’ve decided that there’s a class of people it’s okay to do this to, there’s no clean line in the sand anymore, is there? Now chemical castration (or whatever fucked up shit you wanna bring into it) is an option on the table.
This is how fascists talk, this is how fascists think, and this is how fascists appeal to you to get what they want. Because once you’ve given them that inch, they can use it to take a mile.
Alan Turing (as in the Turing test) was chemically castrated following a conviction for “homosexual acts” in 1952. He committed suicide as a result.
He was also specifically charged because the court found his relationship with a 19-year-old to be especially “indecent” despite such relationships being legal between heterosexuals, so don’t try to say “oh, I only feel that way about pedophiles and creeps.” They will find a way to make you into a criminal, I promise.
and what’s stopping them from claiming you’re part of the Evil Group of People Who Shouldn’t Have Rights?
How is bnha anime of the decade…… they aren’t even anime of the hour of the minute of the second
The notes on this post were so toxic that staff just axed em
1969………
Yes, when the original post is deleted from the server (not just the blog, but the Tumblr servers), there is no root post for notes to be added onto, and also no root post for time to be counted from, so it starts from zero. Most computer operating systems use Unix, which was launched in 1971 with t.he epoch date of midnight on January 1, 1970 as 1. Therefore zero is one second behind that date: December 31, 1969. Also, very unfortunately, this also means nobody except you and anyone you reblog it to will see this explanation, as you cannot open the notes to see comments when there are no notes.
5 million years after the abolition of “men” “women” and “families”, when my cat lies down on my chest and purrs it will still be called baby and daddy time
it is not “misguided”. it is not “sometimes necessary.” it is not “the best they could do with the information they had.”
it is cruel to hit children.
even if they did “turn out fine” (which they don’t.)
it is cruel to hit children.
to hit a child as “discipline” is to inflict pain on a human being who is much smaller than you, cannot defend themself, and is dependent on you for their survival, simply for the act of displeasing you and not following your orders. most people would find this morally horrifying if it was done to an animal.
it is cruel to hit children.
it teaches nothing except that pleasing you is more important than their well-being, and that violence against less powerful people is an acceptable response to things not going your way.
being punk does not mean being a contrarian my man
also a punk is anyone who listens to the music genre of punk. nazi punks are in fact a thing. why do you think jello made the song nazi punks fuck off, which seems to be the only punk song people know of. i fucking hate you people
also if being against the “mainstream media” makes you a punk, then shit, in this age of paid and bought for reporting by the trump administration, not being a nazi is punk
i think i might have said this before but im so grateful that i was exposed to antipsych thought a year or two before i realized i was plural. syscovery was rough enough with the knowledge that this type of brain isn’t inherently broken. without that ideological priming? honestly there’s a not insignificant chance i would have reported to the psych ward and derailed my entire life. which would have been so fucking stupid because none of my syscovery was that serious. i just know that before i was exposed to antipsych thought, i thought that living that way was Broken and required Fixing, even if it wasn’t actually that disruptive to your life.
IM SO PISSED OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WANT TO EAT SWEETS AND CHOCOLATE BUT THERE ARE NONE IN THE HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHOVIANS: GET IN THE TARDIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!! GRAB YOUR SWIMSUITS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOMESTUCK
I’m a character artist, which means landscapes are my enemy. I have an automatic habit of rendering mountains and grass as if it was skin. I struggle to get the sense of scale right - everything feels mid-sized, while it should be epic and grandiose. It’s tough, but I will keep trying! Here’s some assorted environment practice 💪
Father just asked me, in response to me picking up our dog; “do you think, if aliens made humans their pets, do you think we’d enjoy being picked up by them” and I had to pretend like I haven’t been on the internet as much as I have
If you’re a TERF you’re a gender fascist. No other way to spin it. You claim your ideology is about protecting women and children but what it actually necessitates is an overfixation on people’s genitals and the persecution of a minority group that does not actually hold institutional power. You insist on fitting humanity into two strict boxes that do not reflect the true diversity present among 8 billion of us. The moment you start talking about “large gametes”–what the fuck are you doing?
All fascists cloak their actions in protective language. But unless you’re going after the white male billionaire class that actually holds the most power and does the most harm to both humanity and the planet, you’re not protecting anyone and your “resistance” is not worth anything.
okay, hold on, time out. that’s not fair. if they’re allowed to shoot energy beams using the power of friendship, i should be able to summon a monster using the power of divorce
Unlike billionaires, pickpockets often recognize they have a lot in common with the potential victims of their crime.
This reminds me of Rhys Nicholson the comedian who got mugged and the mugger said “I promise this isn’t a hate crime, my sister is a lesbian im pro gay rights”
