severing one's attachments to and decentering heterosexuality is just as important a part of any lefty straight person's political development as severing attachments to and decentering whiteness is to any white lefty's political development

rather than deconstruct the patriarchal ideology that dehumanizes women and by extension degrades men who are perceived as similar to women they prefer to pin the blame on women for the inevitable consequences of the violent system men created and actively choose to maintain

when men say they “aren’t allowed to cry” they mean they are allowed to cry, but when they do people treat them the same way they treat women

MAGA has been very clear it supports sexual violence, especially against children, & hates victims & their supporters who hold predators accountable. So this panders well to that ideology.
Vance: "And now the media and the Democrats in the state of Ohio are obsessed because, guess what? Vivek Ramaswamy had the audacity to run a TV commercial which calls it out like it is and calls Amy Acton a liar."
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Court records and 1978 reports confirm Amy Acton's stepfather was arrested and charged with raping her at age 12; he fled Ohio before trial and was declared a fugitive. Her brother has corroborated the events. Vivek and Vance are siding with abusers over a victim.

The language rape apologists use to trivialize rape follows a few consistent patterns/tropes. Learning to identify them can help you spot rape apologists and learn not to waste time on their sealioning/concern trolling. A thread. 🧵

this disproportionate concern for rapists' rehabilitation when 99% of them don't even make it to jail and victims are silenced and abused by the system doesn't make any sense. rapists are the ones in power objectively, and everyone wants to die on this hill for some reason

A world where rapists face no consequences for their action and are not regarded as political enemies is a planet-sized open air prison. Survivors and gender marginalized people more broadly are violently put in line by the prison guards/cops who act with impunity: the rapists.

Lots of men have intense class solidarity with rapists because they understand, correctly, that men rape women on behalf of all other men, as a way of preserving and enacting male status.

"women have the right to vote" <-> "the right to vote cannot be based on sex"
"women have the right to education" <-> "access to education cannot be based on sex"

the declaration of women's sex-based rights:

Drive to be misogynistic or abuse women but there are no "brakes" for it either. Men are misogynistic and abuse women because they can and it benefits them on all fronts. That's why male violence against women and girls is so ubiquitous across different periods and cultures

It's impossible to hold them accountable only if you expect them to hold themselves accountable which is never going to happen. Men do the things they do because they can and it benefits them. Ditch the religious framework of good and evil. Men don't have an innate-

It's crazy that most women's conception of feminism is that liberation is impossible without men's permission so we must support them and protect their humanity/reputation at all costs. You probably heard this a 100 times:"if all men are bad they can't be held accountable"

This song is actually an undisputable banger and if you see yourself in the husband being described in this song maybe take some time to self-reflect.
This song is scary. The propaganda against marriage and motherhood is so intense now. Married couples have the highest duty to show both their sons and daughters that the only path to a fulfilling life is to give it away as a gift. That can be through marriage or holy orders. Some may not find a spouse, but they shouldn’t view marriage as slavery or a prison sentence.

a lot of the discourse about purity culture is idiotic because it confuses the desire to control sexuality with the desire to erase all forms of sexuality
more often than not purity culture enforces heterosexuality, marriage, monogamy and reproduction
