A timely reminder of what happens when a far right government installs judges to do their bidding: revisit Judgement at Nuremberg, which depicts the trial of German judges who put allegiance to Nazi ideology above the country’s long-standing laws , and how their perversion of law and justice to suit…

So what you are saying is they Don’t Speak?

Maybe you’re tired of it, but it’s worth discussing just who is shaping these narratives. Academia, journalism, politics, etc don’t just happen to be dominated by white men because they’re the most talented and smart. A lot of people couldn’t be bothered to examine their news sources, so I don’t mind if there’s more…

This is what being an ally looks like! Thank you, John Oliver, for using your privilege to hold Hoffman accountable. For any men wondering ‘what do I do’, this is it. You speak up and don’t let abusers get away with idiotic responses.

My dad and two uncles fought in ww2. You think they fought by the rules? They didn’t. You can keep your humanity, and fight the evil with evil. That’s really what it takes to end evil, you have to summon your inner dirtbag.

Michelle Obama changed that for me. Until then I - independent! feminist! free spirit! - had also swallowed my pain and fear. And then there was this amazing woman, saying: “IT HURTS!” and I felt as if for the first time in my life, I was given permission to feel this way! I had gone straight into the trap of “wanting…

Generational note.

Also not going to engage in zero sum fallacy arguments. Dealing with one thing does not mean ignoring everything else. I can care about our incredibly fucked up CJ system(seriously read up on for profit prisons and the school to prison pipeline- lives are being stolen), LGBT rights, and Sexual Predators at the same…

How many men that I have admired are going to turn out to be predators?

When they don’t see a particular class of people as 3 dimensional human beings (women or feminists or people of color or the LGBT); then it’s easy for them to cherry pick one person or two and think they represent everyone.

They’re a liability only because liberals always jump the bait whenever a conservative dangles these false equivalencies in front of them. This is basic armament whenever arguing with these types:

I have zero time for handwringing about these guys. Should they be able to have a basic standard of living and one or two people who enjoy them enough to keep in touch? Sure. I’m willing to engage in some advocacy on behalf of poor sex offenders in that vein. Everyone listed already has that, though.

So many men can look you straight in the eye and say they didnt do/say/act something they blatantly did. Women probably can do the same but men really seem to lie with a level of commitment where I think they’ve actually completely compartmentalised what they did. Like they actually don’t remember what they did until…

The world never fails to display all the disgusting ways that society dehumanizes women.

It’s too bad there aren’t alternatives to fossil fuels that don’t require a massive electricity transmission infrastructure and could be setup locally for cheaper and run on free renewable energy. You know, something like this only less science fictiony:

I am finally hopeful. I feel this could actually happen (and whoever did it, is amazing.)

She has a science room. And reads the MIT Department of Materials Science and Engineering for funsies. She named her experiment after the Greek goddess (Titan) of fresh water.

It’s trolling from right wing edgelording idiots. They know it’s as ridiculous as it sounds, because it’s all a game to them.

here’s why i think it isnt her:

Kellyanne Conway’s husband is the legal leg breaker who did the dirty work to ensure that Bill Clinton could be named in a civil suit while in office. I guess twenty years ago the Moral Majority never imagined they’d be electing a serial rapist as their banner carrier.
