This is “being mean to racists makes them more racist” level bullshit.
People support more “moderate” (read: ineffective) organisations because the oil barons and billionaire owned media invest as much of their essentially endless resources as they need to in to turning the public against any form of effective protest and vilifying anyone who poses an actual threat to them.
Don’t do their work for them.
73% of Young US Voters should open their eyes and realise that the entire state mechanism is owned by capitalists, and that they would never let anyone who threatens their profits get in to power.
Then they should start reading up on anarchism, and start getting serious about enacting change instead of continuing to play along by the rules the capitalist state has set out for them and expecting said change to somehow materialise out of a system that has, and will continue to, put all of its might in to preventing it.
Good for the models, but fuck both Victoria’s Secret and Pinknews.
Corpos pinkwashing does not deserve applause.
Technically, might be both
Spook, noun

is a billionaire and as far as I know awesome.
Then you don’t know.
No one gets to be a billionaire without being an exploitative greedy piece of shit at best. No one.
Having a favourite flavour of leather doesn’t make it any less self harming and counterproductive to lick.

It’s a little reassuring to see that Starmer makes the cat’s hairs stand on end too, not just mine.
Always trust a cat.
What the actual fuck is wrong with the people we give power to.
Change that to “why the fuck do we have to keep picking others to have power over our own lives?” and you might start getting somewhere.
Power corrupts.
Capitalism and its electoral politics (the extra steps it has taken from feudalism, that is nothing more than theatre to appease the masses) has always existed to concentrate, and then maintain, power in the hands of a few. Once someone has such power they will never give it up willingly.
As long as there is hierarchy, there will be inequality. Which is why our system enforces hierarchy so avidly.
It’s insane that no government or organization is even remotely willing to put these transparently corrupt companies in check.
Not when you realise who the government actually work for. Corporations having more rights than people is a feature, not a bug.
and should be the first to suffer the hardest consequences of it
I think you’re confusing your neighbours with a bunch of billionaires, the politicians they buy, and propaganda they churn out. As much as they make you angry, your neighbour could have a tire fire burning in their front yard all day every day their entire life and still not come close to the levels or responsability those hoarding all the power and resources for their own benefit hold.
And before you try blaming who they vote for, you should really look in to how deeply invested the super rich are in both sides of electoral politics (a theatre they have presented to you to provide an illusion of choice and control).

I’d say it (E: not just rape apology, but misogyny in general) only happens a tiny margin less than on the rest of the internet, which is to say it still happens a whole fucking lot, even if they are sometimes a little less blatant with it.
E: in case the replies and the up/down vote ratios in this post alone isn’t evidence enough, the mod log sure shows what positions are defended in one of the biggest spaces on here.

Imagine taking the time to write a wall of text in defence of a rapist.
You’re telling on yourself.
The men who raped her were French too, and they outnumber her at least 50 to one, so your low level troll doesn’t even work the way you think it does…
The Kingdom: The World’s Most Powerful Prince touches on the money grabbing greenwashing sham that is Neom, and is worth a watch either way.
