Yeah, "keep quiet about things you hate" is basically gaslighting.

I can't find the statistic right now, but it's something like over 2/3 of women in US prisons (and likely elsewhere) are there for killing or otherwise harming the man who was abusing, raping, and or trafficking them.

Meanwhile a large majority of abusers rapists and traffickers walk away from their crimes scot free.

The purpose of a system is what it does.

What’s the issue, does the judge think she’s going to go out and start shooting other rapists and traffickers?

The issue is that the patriarchy must uphold rape culture, and that the absence of justice for rape survivors is a feature of that, not a bug, and the courts can't have that power taken away from them.

He had what you might call MAGA energy back then. Constantly fear mongering about crime.

Here, I'll take some of your downvotes - if being "tough on crime" gives you MAGA energy (and I agree, it does), then what energy does that mean ex-prosecutor, "top cop" Harris has?

The answer is, it doesn't matter, she is a liberal icon - a Black girl boss (so that's racism and sexism solved! /s)(E: representation is really important, but if she doesn't represent the interests of those like her, is it really a good representation?), a democrat (making her the antifasciest of antifascists, don't you know), and maintainer of the status quo (all libs really care about, they find comfort in the system and want it to continue as it is).

Sure, She's-Not-Trump™, but that doesn't make her (or anyone the right leaning democratic party would put up) actually good for you, it just means that those in charge get one of their own in, whoever wins.

And that is the point of the two party system. Shame people are so desperate for a feeling of belonging and community (a feature, not a bug) that they substitute that with uncritical support of team red or team blue, when in reality they should be for "team citizen", which neither party is.

So you went from asserting a thing doesn't happen, to admitting you're talking out of your ass, to doubling down again on a subject you've just said you know nothing about? Talk about clowns on the internet lmao

It's called ✨nationalised/socialised utilities✨.

Imagine not being able to even, well, imagine, a world where profit isn't the one and only motive for human behaviour.. 🙄

“China’s gonna China”

Fuck China, but I really don't see how this is specific to them. Lets not pretend this shit couldn't happen (and is happening) pretty much anywhere else on the planet.

Surely the fact that they can't tell her apart from any other Black woman makes it easier, since they don't even need to capture her likeness for the propaganda to work..

an offer that would be declined, because ~~I’m not cool enough.~~ you're a creep who objectifies women
