gavin newsom is a soulless husk who believes in nothing. he is an empty vessel for whatever policies are most advantageous. he is a perfect representation of his party.

hiyodori's work has captured the entanglement of sapphic hatred, obsession and love in a way we havent found elsewhere. she writes about women in beautiful places who will inevitably destroy or complete each other.

Carrion Saints is her best and it will never let us go. it is focused, thorough, and very curious about what it would take to make someone hate you forever.

Thats kinda true. Because the Dems never consider what Leftists think. They're pretty open that they'd rather let the Republicans win, then let a Leftist have a shot.

notably, they dont consider the interests of leftists whether they vote or not

your argument only makes sense if you think sexual assault is inevitable in prisons. the idea that a prison can't stop someone from sexually assaulting someone else is absurd.

i think segregation is bad and causes problems

yes

maybe we shouldnt let prisoners sexually assault each other regardless of gender

yeah, that's how /systemic racism/ works. systemic does mean only the bureaucracy, it means /everything/. racism is baked into our values, behavior, and perspective from birth. we are not taught racism as some separate thing, everything we are taught is steeped in it. you can't be non-racist, you either do the work to root out the bigotry you were built with every day to be anti-racist or you remain racist as you were raised. when you do something that /could/ be racist, it will be unless you are vigilant and stop it. all white people are racist by default and all men are misogynist by default. it takes active work to be anti-racist and anti-misogynist, and most people in oppressors groups don't do that work.

if you think that an oppressed group hating their oppressors is a bridge too far then you are not an ally.
