the "milkman" is a common figure in stories depicting a woman's infidelity and adulterous affair.

this implies that the ability to provide milk would both decrease the likelihood of a man abandoning his wife and children, as it would eliminate the need for leaving to get milk AND would secure that man's marriage, as his wife would have no need to seek milk from an extraneous source.

therefore, all men should produce milk, through various means such as:

- being a cow

- being an almond

- being a woman

- being a coconut

- being in the omegaverse

- being an oat

(list is exemplary and not finite)

This is not me waving a Gadsden flag and saying "Labor movements Bad long live unrestricted business corporations" but rather... History is complex. Labor movements were frequently segregated.

Bosses and owners frequently leveraged racial and national divides by hiring black or immigrant workers to 'scab' for them during strikes.

And no shit he does. Because he’s one of them. He “speaks the language” of authoritarian dictators with no regard for human rights because he’s a mobbed-up authoritarian wannabe dictator with no regard for human rights.

And what you need to understand is that this also goes the other way: they speak his language. They can get him to fold as long as they give him big flashy airplanes, and stroke his ego and pad his wallet enough.

He talks rough, and he’ll bulldoze anyone who gets in the way of what he wants, not because he’s actually strong, but because he’s an infantile spoiled brat who demands his way. This is exactly the same reason he also rolls over and barks like a dog the second he’s promised a treat.

What he wants is not what you want, no matter how much he tries to sell you that line. He is out for himself, the rest of us be damned.

There is at least one example of white Europeans being targeted by white European genocidal tactics at least a century before the Holocaust,

The fact that the Irish are generally understood to be at least as “white” as Jews if not more so has done absolutely nothing to ensure that everyone takes the explicitly genocidal policies enacted against them seriously as genocide, which, to be clear, they were, and

Perhaps “whiteness” vs. “non-whiteness” is actually a very poor metric for all forms of racialized hatred literally anywhere other than USAmerica (and even there tbh!)

Like obviously this take on the Holocaust is antisemitic and terrible, but more than that, it’s weird the degree to which it fundamentally relies on playing apologist not just for the Holocaust, but also for a tremendous number of other genocides as well. Why do you hate the Irish so much? Why do you hate Ukrainians? What did the Cherkess ever do to you? How about Serbs? Bosniaks and Croats? Is your contention that the Cathers weren’t white, or that their elimination in France wasn’t genocide? How many genocides will you die on the hill of defending just to make this ridiculous ahistorical Holocaust take sound even halfway reasonable???

Like one of the biggest tragedies OF the left is that genocide denial wasn't collectively squashed instead of everything from pro-Stalin Holodomor denial, denial of the Cambodian genocide, denial of the Balkan genocide, confusion over the Rwandan genocide, near-complete overlooking of the genocide of Uyghurs, near-complete overlooking of the Myanmar genocide, minimization to this day of the genocidal intent of Russia toward Ukrainians, etc all being something one didn't have to go too far to find...

And worse, any left analysis reducing genocide to "something that can only be done on the basis of a specific American type of race-based oppression" *also* actively excludes femicide/extreme misogyny (which is probably THE most common historical and present genocidal activity globally), that of the disabled of all races and ethnicities (also depressingly common and still present worldwide), and the intentionally genocidal targeting of LGBTQI people (lots of places historically, present Uganda, and the current US regime is headed there too)
