Personal Shit and Fandom Shit

But maybe also consider that first world countries exist. With normal people in them. Not just the absolute trashheap and blight on the world that is the US, Idiot Nation.

2. The Delectable Negro: Human Consumption and Homoeroticism Within US Slave Culture by Vincent Woodard

3. "Abolitionists turned the tables on Europeans by accusing them of being cannibals when they ate sugar tainted with the flesh and blood of slaves."

It's still legal in Papua New Guinea, as well as India.

Ironically, cannibalism was also practiced occasionally in Ancient Egypt, so there is a chance that those mummies were cannibals themselves. Which would be kinda funny, tbh. Talk about Karma.

Oh this is exactly me.

P.S. They consider a gay kiss to be “pornography.”

It’s a wild scene, emblematic of the ever-growing hostility between San Francisco residents and the big tech companies that use the city’s public streets as a testing ground for self-driving cars. 

The presence of self-driving cars in the city has been controversial. Last week, a Waymo vehicle struck a cyclist, leading to minor injuries and sparking a regulatory review.

In October, a woman who was hit by a human-driven car fell into the path of a Cruise driverless vehicle which dragged her 20 feet. Cruise initially omitted this in its description of the incident to California’s DMV, prompting the agency to suspend the company’s license. 

The villain. The Feminist hero Mary Sue, who was perfect all along. She's there. No character arc, no memorable lines, only just ... there. Your movie, sunshine, your fuck up, because it turns out that just means she's boring. But Ken? Ken, the symbol of Patriarchy, is fun, is human, is exciting and romantic.

People genuinely like Ken.

Margot's movie bitches that women are sexually harassed by men just for existing, but the reality was the opposite. Ryan and Margot had totally different experiences. Ryan got the catcalls. Ryan had the public fawning over him. Nobody talks to Margot, probably because they don't want to be #MeToo-ed. But if you're a gay man and say Ryan's got fab abs, there's no legal punishment, you won't be dragged and cancelled, you will get a thanks and a wave. The reality is the dead opposite to Greta Gerwig's hateful vision, and that's why people love Ken, and don't give a toss about the movie's Barbie. Don't get me wrong, I think the costuming and backgrounds are fantastic, they deserved awards too. But Ken could have a sequel. Barbie? She was a perfect summary of why Feminism failed, ironically. It has nothing to offer. It's not human.

give cover to people who haven't been caught yet by allowing them to use their humanity as "proof" of their innocence

silence any criticism of societal structures and institutions that facilitate those horrible things by putting the focus on individuals who are assumed to be so uniquely monstrous that the ways it was made easy for them are irrelevant

provide a shortcut to dehumanize anyone you feel like killing: simply accuse them of doing a horrible thing

3.a. if you've already established that only an inhuman monster could kill a child, then all you have to do to get people to burn down the jewish quarter is say that jews kidnap christian children to bathe in their blood

3.b. if you've already established that only an inhuman monster could commit rape, then all you have to do to get people to string up a black man you don't like is find a white woman who's willing to point at him while she cries and babbles

3.c. if you've already established that only an inhuman monster could molest a child, then all you have to do to get people to drag gay people behind their trucks is say that since gay people can't have babies, the only way they can make more gay people is by following a nefarious Agenda to "convert" children by molesting them

3.c.a. meanwhile if you try to address the rampant sexual assault of catholic altar boys, you're met with "don't be ridiculous, he's a priest!" (see #1) and with assertions that even if it does happen sometimes, those priests are just infiltrators who don't represent the church and there's no reason to make sure priests and altar boys are never alone together (see #2)

That stops them guaranteed, I would definitely feel better if someone send me a video of my abuser getting disemboweled so I will just assume that at least some more victims would also feel better from it, the chances of other children getting harmed by the same person sink immediately to 0, AND it tells everyone else "Hey. If you do that, this is what happens. Not just a cushy little cell for a few years and free food. But a slow, brutal, gory, painful death that will be distributed for people for fun, your corpse, name and entire legacy defiled for fun"

I dunno I certainly would have never stolen something if that had been the punishment instead of a slap on the wrist.

And what do I deserve for saying that a specific demographic of people deserves the worst?

Absolutely nothing. Those people chose willingly and knowingly to become part of that demographic, it ain't my fault they wanted to.

Killing pedophiles is entirely justifiable. You cannot convince me otherwise. Revenge is good actually and I am sick of some moral highhorse privilidged wannabe philosophy degree attemptee pretending otherwise.

Also?

People are gonna abuse EVERY narrative to hurt other people they don't like.

People are gonna justify homophobia with gay people keeping the secret that the earth is flat.

Every narrative, real and fictional, whatever, is going to be abused by other people.

In 1946, a Christian child from Kielce went missing for a time. He later returned and claimed to have been kidnapped by Jewish residents of a particular building; most of these were Holocaust survivors. Polish soldiers stormed the building and ordered the residents to turn over their possessions; one thing let to another and suddenly the soldiers opened fire. When the residents ran outside, civilians began attacking them with clubs and stones. 42 Jewish people died that day—men, women, and children.

The boy lied.

He was ordered to lie by his family and to not ever speak the truth, even years after the pogrom. He was an adult when he first admitted that he was staying with a family who treated him well, and certainly not the Jews of that building.

On the basis of a lie, 42 Jewish people, most of whom had already endured the horrors of the Holocaust, lost their lives. To this day, the Polish government still denies culpability.

I never want a justice system that could, even on accident, even once, lead to the death of an innocent person. Especially not when those dead innocents are more likely than not going to be groups of people society at large airway dehumanizes. It's mostly going to be Jewish people, people of color, and queer people who get served violent justice, while cis, straight, gentile whites walk off scot-free. That is how the world works. That it how this world has worked.

Besides, statistically countries and states with the death penalty don't even have a decrease in crime. Sometimes, it's the opposite—removing the death penalty and instituting other policies actually reduces crime. Violence is not an effective deterrent. Revenge isn't justice. Killing the people who do bad things won't stop others from doing bad things.

Because Poland was antisemetic even before Nayis started existing, and it's not because everyone thinks Jews are pedos, but because of one of the other fivehundred justifications used since before the Holocaust.

Like Jews are rich, Jews control your money, Jews control the banks, Jews control education, Jews won't let you study, Jews control medicine, Jews control gold, Jews are greedy, Jews control the market and so on and so forth.

People already hated jews for dozens upon dozens of other justifications used by the Nazis, if it hadn't been a lie about pedophilia the family would have probably just lied about the child being murdered outright.

As for your minority argument... At least from what I observe from lolcows, child abusers, harrassers and creeps are usually let off the hook when they're autistic.

Like Chris Chan. Also a pretend minority (he does say he is trans, though he admitted he only started saying that to get lesbians), also autistic, yet all he got from raping his dementia riddled mother was a single year. Which is nothing.

These days, from what I can observe, minorities tend to be let off easier because otherwise, people would complain on Twitter that this totally innocent minority was falsely convincted.

Jussie Smollet, faked a hate crime, got out of prison after like three days because "It wasn't good for his mental health" -_- Still hasn't faced any consequences for it. Gay black guy.

And I am using US only cases, I am not speaking from a US perspective here. Other countries are more equal in their justice systems, with the exception of rich people, but rich people get away with everything anywhere anyways.

I'd like to think that the justice system has moved on since... 70 years ago. At least in most countries.

Also, previous reblog mentioned "with proof". Just testimony isn't even sufficient proof for minor crimes like theft in a court of law. And I'd like to think that certain proof is harder to fake.

You are entitled to your different opinion, as people thinking otherwise are to theirs.

I would just like to adress the point that "crimes went down when the death penalty was off the table"

Did crime reall go down? Or did people just stop reporting because they knew they wouldn't get the justice they deserved anyways, so what's the point with the lawyer cost and stress? Prison is worthless, going from US perspective

Within 9 years of their release from prison in 2005—

Rape and sexual assault offenders were less likely than other released prisoners to be arrested, but they were more likely than other released prisoners to be arrested for rape or sexual assault.

Released sex offenders were more than three times as likely as other released prisoners to be arrested for rape or sexual assault (7.7% versus 2.3%).

About two-thirds (67%) of released sex offenders were arrested for any crime, compared to about five-sixths (84%) of other released prisoners.

Half of released sex offenders had a subsequent arrest that led to a conviction.

Released sex offenders accounted for 5% of releases in 2005 and 16% of arrests for rape or sexual assault during the 9-year follow-up period.

Looks to me as if unneccessary victims could have just been avoided if it had just been a bullet to the brain outright.

16% of victims, to be exact. And that are only the ones that got actually reported and convincted again.

Why let them out to rape again? Why not just take the easy way at the very least the second time around. Why shouldn't we kill people that deserve it and will never change, never stop deserving it.

And the chances that it's a lie the first time are small already. The chances that twice in a row it's false? I have never heard of a case like that. By that point, either life sentence (which is basically death sentence, you just wait it out instead of just getting to it) or death outright would be the safest way to guarantee that nobody has to explain to some child that they let their rapist out of prison twice already and just couldn't be bothered to keep him away, sorry kid, got unlucky.

I feel kinda pathetic to ask that. But I just don't want to spend my birthday even more miserable than Christmas is already gonna be. Being poor just sucks. Not having money for literally anything more than a pack of soup and some off brand cola. And if I save my money this next week maybe enough to get drunk on New Years Eve so I can forget just how much my life, my birthday, everything fucking sucks.

Even if its just a single dollar, that anyone would care enough for that alone would probably brighten my day already.

If you can spare just about anything, this year I'm desperate enough to actually use my name on the internet.

Help an autistic girl so she can be a little less miserable 🥳

Anything at all is appreciated. Thank you.
