I do not understand how "no one deserves to lose their human rights based on who they voted for" is becoming a fringe opinion in leftist spaces. So is "children do not deserve to suffer and starve and die for their parent's choices full stop" somehow. Something something not wanting to remove the boot but become it...
I bring a sort of "maybe don't repeat rhetoric that Republicans use to justify the horrific mistreatment of the children of immigrants" vibe to the party a weirdly large amount of progressive seem to have a problem with.
It looks like losing SNAP is making MAGA types do a heel turn and start saying they regret voting for Trump and our job is to absolutely 100% never in a million years be a condescending asshole telling them we have no sympathy, won't extend a hand, and that they deserve it.
If you do this to people who are trying to deprogram or actually are deprograming you're part of the problem. If leaving the cult gets them treated like this then why would anyone ever leave the cult? From a harm reduction standpoint every person who turns their back on Trump is a win. Don't ruin that.
... also....
you do not have to be their best friend bosom buddy. they have hurt people and, yes, should be held accountable, but make no fucking mistake, no one deserves to lose their human rights because of who they voted for.
fortunately or un, all human lives have worth. all human lives are worthy of being human. they arent good people; but also if someone leaves a cult they dont HAVE to become the absolute direct opposite of what that cult pushed.
they ought to be free; they ought to be fed; they should be housed and warm when it's cold and cool when it's hot; they deserve fresh water and clothing and care even if you do not like them.
you do not need to be their friend!!
You have got to stop referring to video games, fiction, drawings, etc. as "CSAM."
This defeats the entire purpose of the term "CSAM" (child sexual abuse material) which is that it's material of a child being sexually abused. The term was coined by anti-CSAM advocates because this material was being called "child porn," and it's not "porn." "Porn" generally refers to fiction, and CSAM is not fiction. It's real footage of real children being really abused.
"CSAM" is to "child abuse" as "snuff film" is to "murder." It is real filmed violence against a real human person. Games/drawings/fiction depiction child abuse as a plot point in a work of fiction are to child abuse as, e.g., murder mysteries are to murder. It's a fictional story in a fictional medium. No real human people are harmed in its production. You can argue -- and many people do -- about whether the fictional depiction "sends a bad message" or whatever, but it is not, literally, a snuff film or CSAM.
Referring to fiction as "CSAM" not only needlessly gives cover to moral panic and censorship; it also completely dilutes the harm of CSAM. The harm of CSAM is not that it's morally bad media that sends a bad message. The harm is that real human people are abused in its production.
My other big post that broke containment was about giving advice to underage teens on why dating an adult is a bad idea (Ironically, for those determined to believe I'm a "pedophile"), and that got Adult Content Labeled, so yeah, there seems to be a strong trend toward "CSA is bad" being Hidden From Youth. đ¤ˇđťââď¸
Omg hi those are my tags! It's so insane, the other day I rbed a post about "pedophilia" and fiction posted by some ao3 account and /I/ got the notif for the flagging of the post? "We decided your post needed the Adult Content Label" and? That wasn't my post? I just reblogged it? But yeah you can't really talk about this kind of stuff without it getting flagged. Truly horrible times we live in huh.

how can ppl say cats dont have feelings like.Â
when my cat got deadly sick she refused to eat a single thing and it had been days but when i started crying she ate just a little bit, and upon seeing how happy it made me, kept doing it whenever she could.
now whenever im sad or crying she finds wherever i am with a mouthful of food and eats the pieces one by one, every time looking up at me making sure i was watching her eat it all because she knew it made me happy. and it DOES make me happy
i love cats!!!Â
im so glad my little Foofy has touched everyoneâs hearts⌠she luvs you all
you are allowed to take painkillers. Yes even if it doesn't hurt that much. Yes, even if you're about to go to sleep anyways. Or if you don't plan on stopping doing things that make it worse. Yes, even when the pain is in part or entirely your own fault. You don't deserve to suffer for any reason. No one does. Take the painkillers

Letâs be honest - Everest should be cut off from climbers, and the only people that should be allowed up there are ppl who volunteer to clean up all the garbage and human excrement adrenaline junkies have left up there over the decades, and anyone who volunteers to attempt to bring down any bodies of those who died.
The ascent is too dangerous, too many ill-equipped and unprepared climbers try to make the climb, and too much garbage is piling up and poisoning the run off that communities around Everest rely on to live.
Reminder that:
Rainbow Valley, for all its macabre connotations, is also a literal trash heap.
Base Camp and ABC are worse. The entire route is lined with garbage.
The Sherpa population receive little credit for incredible amount of work they do, often doing most of the work of the climber or team so that the team takes all the credit. Itâs true that thereâs a monetary benefit for their communities, but their job is also one of the most dangerous in the world.
There are documented crimes on Everest. Theft and assault are just the tip of the proverbial iceberg. Theft of oxygen tanks and other vital equipment can seriously endanger climbers. Entire books have been written about this.
People have been left to die on the climb. In some places, depending on the altitude, it becomes unavoidable or near impossible to move someone down the mountain. However, there have been avoidable deaths, again well-documented. Some climbers even say they have something called âsummit feverâ where only the climb has meaning, and not their fellow climbers.Â
Itâs overcrowded. The victoryâs lost most of its meaning. Just let it be.
this is another reason why land back / indigenous sovereignty is so important. give the mountain back to the people whoâve been taking care of it for centuries and let them have full control over it legally. let them decide if it should or shouldnât be a tourist attraction or if people should be allowed to climb it. just defer to Sherpa people when it comes to anything to do with SagarmÄthÄ
I mean, youâre absolutely right that the situation on SagarmÄthÄ (aka Mount Everest) is a real problem, but âban everyone from it foreverâ is a take that misses a lot of nuance, and will just make a lot more problems. The mountaineering industry is an absolutely vital part of Nepalâs economy, and SagarmÄthÄ is a fair chunk of that. Thereâs a reason so many people choose to do something as dangerous as guidework, and thatâs because itâs really good money. If that shuts down entirely, lives will be destroyed. People will die. Youâll just trade one problem for another.
So what should be done?
Well, for a start, I think it helps to actually fucking listen to the people risking their lives working on that mountain. They donât want it closed, because again, their lives will be ruined if that happens, but they DO want better regulations about who goes on the mountain, and what happens there.
See, you need a permit to climb SagarmÄthÄ , one issued by either the Nepalese or Chinese government, depending on where you start your ascent. And yes, multiple governments being involved makes it even more complicated, but letâs just focus on the Nepal side of things for now; the Chinese route is a real bitch to climb compared to the Nepal route so it doesnât have such a tourist problem, and also the first step to any real solution there is for China to stop fucking occupying Tibet. So letâs focus on Nepal.
The permits are a very good thing; you need to pay to be issued one, which brings in money to the country, and itâs just common sense to regulate how many people are going up there. Whatâs not good is that the Nepalese government isnât doing a very good job of regulating the permit sales; guides have been complaining for decades now about the government selling way too many permits, overcrowding the mountain, and allowing wildly unqualified people to go. One of the main things the Sherpa guide community wants is for the Nepalese government to sell less permits for SagarmÄthÄ, and make the skill/fitness requirements stricter. One popular proposal is to change the rules so that you need to have climbed at least one 8000m peak to be eligible to get a permit for SagarmÄthÄ. Since eight of the fourteen are in Nepal, this would keep money flowing, since people would need to do multiple trips, and it would also scare most of the dumbasses away - they want to be carried up the most famous mountain in the world so they can brag about summiting Everest. Having to climb a harder mountain first would make that look a lot less appealing, especially since K2 is a hellish death trap, and none of the other 8000â˛s have the same name recognition. You canât really brag to your buddies at the office about having summited Dhaulagiri or Manaslu the same way you can brag about Everest. So that proposed rule change would scare off the tourists, and ensure every single person on SagarmÄthÄ is an experienced mountaineer thatâs already experienced the death zone, as opposed to the current issue of multiple people that have literally never climbed before buying permits to go up SagarmÄthÄ.
They also want better regulations for the guide companies that can be hired for SagarmÄthÄ - thereâs a huge problem of tourists paying for the cheaper guide companies, not realizing that the whole reason theyâre cheap is because they take extremely dangerous shortcuts in their equipment maintenance. Those companies are a massive problem, and the legitimate guides hate them. So, so much. They put their clients in danger, they put their employees in danger, and they put everyone on the mountain with them in danger.
Finally, the guides need better pensions and life insurance, because the Nepalese government has a real problem of not paying the families nearly enough when a guide dies on the job. That was the entire reason for the 2014 strike - an avalanche struck the base camp during the pre-season, killing sixteen of the Sherpas that were laying down ropes for the season. The Nepalese government offered to compensate the families of the victims with just enough money to cover the funerals, which infuriated the entire Nepalese mountaineering community. They demanded that the mandatory life insurance policy have its payout doubled in the future, more money to be given to the families of the avalanche victims, and government payment of medical bills for the wounded. None of the demands were met, and so they went on strike for the year. The government did agree to give more money to the families⌠provided they presented the appropriate documents in Kathmandu, which isnât really feasible for most people living in the Khumbu region, making them angrier. The life insurance payout was also raised, but only by half the amount the Sherpaâs had demanded.
To summarize: shutting down SagarmÄthÄ will fuck over the entire economy of Nepal, leading to people dying and lives being ruined. Listen to the fucking people youâre trying to advocate for. They want the Nepalese government to sell less permits to climb SagarmÄthÄ, have stricter rules about who can buy the permits, tighter regulations for guide companies, and more government assistance for guides and their families after an injury or death occurs. And yes, SagarmÄthÄ is a sacred place to the Sherpa people, and their religious leaders want everyone off the mountain⌠but letâs be real here, thatâs never going to happen.
So, if this is an issue you care about, and you actually want to do something instead of making vague, impossible demands to feel good about yourself online, what can you do?
For a start, begin calling the mountain SagarmÄthÄ instead of Everest. Everest was only used as a name because Nepal and Tibet were closed to outsiders when the British were surveying the Himalayaâs in 1800â˛s, so they were unable to learn the mountains real name. And the surveyors were surprisingly serious about labelling mountains with the correct local names, which is why Everest and K2 are the only standouts among the 8000 meter peaks - K2 is so remote it never actually had a name, and the placeholder label of K2 stuck, while SagarmÄthÄ was believed to be the same situation and given a name instead. The only reason itâs still called Everest is because thatâs the name that became famous. Getting the proper name into common use might make things right. Itâs about respecting the culture of the Sherpaâs⌠and it will also respect the wishes of Sir George Everest, who absolutely fucking hated the proposal to name the mountain after him, and fought tooth and nail to leave a placeholder and keep searching for a proper local name. The poor bastards been rolling in his grave for over 150 years now, letâs get his name off the damn mountain already.
For improving the actual conditions, push for the Nepalese government to make the changes the guides want. International pressure is necessary for that; if nobody cares about the Sherpaâs, the government can do as they please, and the guides just have to put up with it. Pay attention, raise awareness, advocate for their wellbeing, and, again, listen to what they actually need/want.
Finally, rookies climbers going up SagarmÄthÄ should be judged, and judged hard. Theyâre not impressive. Theyâre fucking idiots being carried up a mountain by the real professionals so they can claim bragging rights. If someone brags about climbing the tallest mountain in the world, ask about their climbing experience and training, and if theyâve ever climbed/considered climbing any of the less famous 8000+ meter peaks. If theyâre not an experienced climber that respects the mountain, mock them relentlessly. Theyâre not impressive, theyâre an idiot that burned their own money to be carried up a really big rock and steal the credit for their guides hard work.
That being said, also show respect towards the people that have died on SagarmÄthÄ, AND the people that have witnessed death on that mountain. Iâm not going to blame anyone for bad decision making at 8000 meters of elevation. The death zone was named that because the conditions cannot support human life; you are slowly dying as soon as you enter, and the trick is just to get back down before you succumb to it. The human brain does not enjoy being slowly suffocated to death, and you sort of lose your shit as a result. Thatâs just biology, happens to everyone. Thereâs a reason why disasters high up on the 8000+ peaks are so confusing - thereâs always multiple different stories about how events played out, because short term memory loss and delirium are a very common side effect of being at an altitude unable to support human life. Thatâs also a large part of âsummit feverâ on those peaks; people genuinely cannot make rational decisions up there. Itâs a well documented problem. A fair amount of lethal falls up there are technically suicides, as people get confused and wander off cliffs, or begin removing protective gear, or other things nobody in their right mind would do. Thatâs why so many people die attempting to summit after the cut-off point of it being too late to try - they canât process that if they continue, conditions will become extremely dangerous on their descent. They can only understand that their goal is the summit, the conditions are good right now, so that means theyâre fine and should keep going.
Basically this is a complicated problem, and âSagarmÄthÄ needs to be closed forever and everyone there is a heartless monsterâ is just⌠missing so, so much nuance, and is worse than useless if youâre trying to actually help the Sherpa people.
What they DON'T tell you about being bilingual is forgetting words in one language and the other. And knowing the meaning in the other, but it just fails you either way.
So you just end up:
âWe couldâve built this place in seventy two hours, but human rights violations kept us from completely treating these people like animals in a zoo.â
Housing the homeless isn't feasible.
Treating the sick isn't feasible.
But we can build concentration camps in a week.
If you are currently unaware of what's going on in Florida:
As recently as June 2025, the Trump administration began construction for a concentration camp dubbed "Alligator Alcatraz" in the heart of the Florida Everglades. It is made up of tents and thousands of beds inside cages, under the sweltering Florida heat.
The Trump administration have praised how isolated this environment is, claiming that the "dangerous wildlife" and "unforgiving terrain" will keep kidnapped people inside. According to Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier, if "people get out, there's not much waiting for them other than alligators and pythons." They are thrilled about the abuse and potential death of real people.
The amount of pride they have for a literal concentration camp is sinister. Florida republicans are even selling merch and establishing mascots.
They started detaining people last week, and they are treating them like ârats in an experiment.â
There are protests happening in and around the area. If you can, I would encourage you to show up for your community at one of these protests in South Florida. With that being said, the concentration camp is located adjacent to sacred Miccosukee and Seminole land. Please be mindful of the space.
