"Oh, not you as well, Brutus!" in that voice is the best translation of 'Et tu, Brute?' I've ever heard.
Conservatives have weaponized their personal beliefs. These are not legal scholars. They are unsophisticated and vile.
These originalists don't see the 13th Amendment as the answer to young black girls forced into reproduction in Antebellum America.
The 13th abolished involuntary servitude. It protected young girls from abusive men.
Women and girls will again to victims of abusive men forcing them into reproduction.

Basic political concepts Americans should grasp
You have to vote in every election. Yes, every election. Not just the Presidential ones. You have to vote for Governor, Senator, Congresspeople â all of your state legislatures. You have to vote for mayor, city council, school board. You have to do this every single time. Republicans do this every single time. You can too.
It takes less time to tear things down than to build things up. This is why itâs so easy to be a Republican and accomplish Republican goals. They are destruction artists. Itâs easy to eliminate rights, easy to eliminate social programs. Building and codifying and establishing these things is really fucking hard, takes time and patience. This sucks, I know. It sucks bad. But itâs just reality. So when you wonder why Republicans seem to accomplish more of their goals, itâs because their goals are to burn it all down. Theyâre not really goals so much as just torching shit.
Mistakes of the past will continue to haunt us and we will have to continue to fight against them. This really sucks, especially if you werenât old enough to vote in previous elections. But weâre all handed what weâre handed in life, and the people who came before us who accomplished real change took what they were handed and did something with it, they didnât just check out. And a lot of them fought really fucking hard so all of us could do #1 â VOTE. Do not spit on the memories of people who literally laid down their lives fighting for the right for all of us to vote by not voting or throwing your vote away.
We can learn a lot from the last generation of activists who accomplished significant change and a lot of those people are still with us, for now. Civil Rights Leaders still exist in our society, though theyâre aging out. Take a look at what theyâre saying, because you know what? They actually accomplished real change in their lifetimes, under really difficult circumstances. Believe it or not, there are older people you can learn from. We ignore the lessons of history to our peril.
Do you think you have something to offer? Run for local office. Or get involved with someone who is running for local office. YOU can make a difference if you get involved. But we also have to work together. Coalition-building has always been the key to liberal success.
You have to vote in every election. Yes, every election.
Some of you really need to drop the âincremental change is worthlessâ shit and start appreciating the sacrifices of the activists who spent hundreds of years making the incremental changes that made this country livable for people who arenât straight white Christian men.
Iâve seen a lot of posts about how âwell Democrats could have prevented this but didnât, so theyâre just as bad as Republicans and voting is worthlessâ, and those posts do a massive disservice to all the people who have been fucking trying. Almost every issue Iâve seen people complain about Democrats not preventing, thereâs a bill that wouldâve fixed it that got stalled by Republicans in the House or Senate. Democrats tried to pass abortion protection just last month but Republicans in the Senate blocked it. Acting like Democrats totally have the power to fix everything and just arenât doing it is not only blatantly untrue, but itâs massively damaging and spreads a message of helplessness and despair. Thatâs the last fucking thing we need right now!
You know why evangelicals have so much power despite being a minority of the population? Because they show up. Theyâre a dedicated, consistent voting block who show up to EVERY election, every town hall meeting, and every PTA meeting, vocally and en masse. And it took them 50 years, but now weâre seeing the results of all that grassroots organizing.
So yeah. Thereâs not going to be a revolution that just magically fixes every problem with this country. There IS going to be a huge number of people who wake up every day determined to make tiny changes - to their town, their community, their schools, their libraries - and theyâre going to do that every day for 50 years, and if thereâs enough of them, weâll get there. Itâs slow and it sucks and itâs not glamorous or exciting, but itâs how progress is made. So get off your high horse and join us, and maybe we can get there a little faster.Â
I think a lot of people need to realize how intentionally orchestrated recent events are. The US judges didnt do this when Trump was president. They waited for Bidenâs presidency. They waited for a chance to make his supporters blame him. They waited to do it right before the midterm elections, with enough time to drive people apart but not enough time to distribute voting resources and pull them back together.
They couldâve done this a lot sooner. This was planned and intentional in order to drive their opposition apart, and if you spend your time ranting about how this is Democratsâ fault or that voting blue is useless you are falling perfectly into their plan.
âDidnât threaten the lives of justicesâ? Fuck that bullshit.
Justice Blackmun, who wrote the Roe majority opinion, had a bullet shot through his living room window. This after years of receiving letters threatening his life. The bullet occurred right after he had received a particularly concerning letter, and was at the end of a year in which DC-area clinics had been subjected to seven bombings. Not threats, bombings.

Oh, and Blackmun also was picketed regularly ever since the Roe decision was handed down.
Learn your history. Donât let the Right re-write it.

Trump said he was going to appoint justices that would overturn Roe v. Wade. This was the big picture and this is the result.

The Good Placeâs take on morality is so important to me. It never suggests that being good is easy or straightforward - quite the opposite - but it says, over and over again, that we need to try because weâre all people and we all matter.

Iâm????
Oh my God this actually explains so much.
So thereâs a known thing in the study of human psychology/sociology/what-have-you where men are known to, on average, rely entirely on their female romantic partner for emotional support. Bonding with other men is done at a more superficial level involving fun group activities and conversations about general subjects but rarely involves actually leaning on other men or being really honest about emotional problems. Men use alcohol to be able to lower their inhibitions enough to expose themselves emotionally to other men, but if you canât get emotional support unless youâre drunk, you have a problem.
So men need to have a woman in their lives to have anyone they can share their emotional needs and vulnerabilities with. However, since women are not socialized to fear sharing these things, womenâs friendships with other women are heavily based on emotional support. If you canât lean on her when youâre weak, sheâs not your friend. To women, what friendship is is someone who listens to all your problems and keeps you company.
So this disconnect men are suffering from is that they think that only a person who is having sex with you will share their emotions and expect support. Thatâs what a romantic partner does. But women think thatâs what a friend does. So women do it for their romantic partners and their friends and expect a male friend to do it for them the same as a female friend would. This fools the male friend into thinking there must be something romantic there when there is not.
This here is an example of patriarchy hurting everyone. Women have a much healthier approach to emotional support â they donât die when widowed at nearly the rate that widowers die and they donât suffer emotionally from divorce nearly as much even though they suffer much more financially, and this is because women donât put all their emotional needs on one person. Women have a support network of other women. But men are trained to never share their emotions except with their wife or girlfriend, because that isnât manly. So when she dies or leaves them, they have no one to turn to to help with the grief, causing higher rates of death, depression, alcoholism and general awfulness upon losing a romantic partner.Â
So men suffer terribly from being trained in this way. But women suffer in that they canât reach out to male friends for basic friendship. I am not sure any man can comprehend how heartbreaking it is to realize that a guy you thought was your friend was really just trying to get into your pants. Friendship is real. Itâs emotional, itâs important to us. We lean on our friends. Knowing that your friend was secretly seething with resentment when you were opening up to him and sharing your problems because he felt like he shouldnât have to do that kind of emotional work for anyone not having sex with him, and he felt used by you for that reason, is horrible. And the fact that men canât share emotional needs with other men means that lots of men who canât get a girlfriend end up turning into horrible misogynistic people who think the world owes them the love of a woman, like itâs a commodity⌠because no one will die without sex. Masturbation exists. But people will die or suffer deep emotional trauma from having no one they can lean on emotionally. And men who are suffering deep emotional trauma, and have been trained to channel their personal trauma into rage because they canât share it, become mass shooters, or rapists, or simply horrible misogynists.
The only way to fix this is to teach boys itâs okay to love your friends. Itâs okay to share your needs and your problems with your friends. Itâs okay to lean on your friends, to hug your friends, to be weak with your friends. Only if this is okay for boys to do with their male friends can this problem be resolved⌠so men, this oneâs on you. Women canât fix this for you; you donât listen to us about matters of what it means to be a man. Fix your own shit and teach your brothers and sons and friends that this is okay, or everyone suffers.
The next time a guy says, âWhat? You don't want to be my friend?â Iâll text him this and then ask if he really wants to be friends or just have another potential girlfriend.
yâall I am living for these analyses where the new way to fight the patriarchy is to teach men to love each other and themselves
