  • Especially in this economy of runaway corporate greed, we need a meaningful increase in wages revolution to eliminate those corporations and the systemic rewarding of greed.

    The fact that they could increase wages and still make money while improving society but don’t, is why they don’t deserve any more benefit of the doubt, or room to continue hoarding wealth and power as they are, because a system that craves constant growth at any cost will never stop on its own (nor provide paths for reform).





  • I’m sure all of this is correct, but you’re forgetting one thing: potatoes are the only one of these you can grow enough of to eat at home, as long as you have space for a bucket or sack or two of soil, and which basically require zero processing aside from applying heat to consume.

    I agree with you that we shouldn’t actually need to know or use any of this information, and as a poor disabled person I also know that growing your own food isn’t always an option for everyone, but if it is an option, I think it at the very least puts potatoes back in the running.











  • It is a pejorative

    No, it isn’t, just like TERF isn’t or like pointing out someone is white or male isn’t, they are all simple statements of fact, that those they apply to don’t like because, being used to always being the “default” that doesn’t need categorising, it gives them the tiniest of glimpses of being part of an out group, without all of the oppression people like them actually enforce on members of the groups they marginalise.

    Don’t play in to the hands of the victimhood seeking bootlicker. This person is not being attacked or bullied or harmed in any way, they are literally just facing the consequences of their actions and words.

    As they fucking should.


  • They’re also literally defending cops, probably the most well known group of domestic abusers out there. It really isn’t a big leap to make that if someone gets defensive over abusers (or racists), it’s because they’re actually getting defensive about their own behaviour.

    E: also, the fact that the mods had removed your comment, but none of the racist bootlicker’s, tells you everything you need to know about who they prioritise in this space - when “don’t be a dick” becomes “don’t be a dick to fascists”, you’re actively platforming fascists.
