Just Another Day In The Corn Fields

in the early 21st-century, the “small business” was a sort of small temple run by a local warlord. Patrons could purchase small trinkets and be granted absolution for the sins of their empire. This was called “ethical consumption.”

literally every anti-polyamory caricature I've ever seen has just been filled with this latent rage that people that are "ugly" or "weird" are able to be desired by multiple people. fat people, autistic people, people who talk weird or have disabilities or even who are a bit cringey about their relationships - there's just a desire to discredit the fact that they're wanted and loved by portraying their relationships as intrinsically shallow. it could not be more of a self-admitting L if it tried to be. mad that people you hate are still capable of being wanted aren't you!

knowing how it tends to go with male authors and their wives it was probably marge who wrote the odyssey

I talk about american media the same way anti-communist sinophobes talk about chinese TV

"Well yes I can appreciate the directors efforts its obvious that this was just another propaganda piece for the american regime"

“My emperor is fine” your emperor has commissioned over 8000 life-sized terracotta soldiers and buried them facing east, in the direction of his recently conquered enemies in the hopes that they will protect him in the afterlife.

DELETE THIS IMMEDIATELY

I think it's impossible to disentangle decolonization without tackling food sovereignty which is impossible to address without wide scale ecological restoration. If someone is against ecological restoration it is absolutely not a stretch to say they're pro-colonization and pro-imperialism.

also if you research indigenous rights even a little bit the necessity of ecological restoration is front and center! Colonization purposefully and systematically destroyed, deforested, stripmined, and paved over indigenous lands. True decolonization absolutely requires restoring ecosystems. And you can misread this in bad faith and twist it into some sort of appeal to the primal untouched wilderness of ye olden times but you know very well that's not what I'm fucking saying.

A lot of people are so offended at the idea that their opinions could be unwittingly influenced by factors outside of their own rational judgement, even though there is an $800 billion worldwide industry dedicated to doing precisely that.
