““You have to understand the Arab mind,” Capt. Todd Brown, a company commander with the Fourth Infantry Division, said as he stood outside the gates of Abu Hishma. “The only thing they understand is force — force, pride and saving face.”” — New York Times, December 7, 2003.
This racist, dehumanizing and imperialist understanding of the Eastern world is more than rampant in the...

Ryan Leef Member of Parliament, Yukon Open Letter #14 June, 2012
Dear Ryan,
Conservative MP David Wilkes recently told his constituents that he had serious concerns about the omnibus budget bill C-38. He said that backbenchers weren’t allowed to look at this 420-page document until it was released to the public. How can any Member of Parliament vote on something...
Rape Culture

potentiallyunpopularopinion:
So. Rape culture. We’re told it’s how we blame the victim for getting raped as opposed to blaming the victim for doing the raping. The whole don’t tell me not to get raped tell men not to rape….because only men rape. Anyway I’m not gonna get into how that’s sexist. What I want to get into is the feminist response to the following logic.
Let’s...

if anyone doesnt understand how far monsanto and other biotechnology companies’ tentacles extend
and just how pervasive their disinformation attempts will be at all times, and especially when there is any sort of perceived and/or viable threat to their profits and systems of control
(and i assure you, those are their only concerns)
then you are quite blind
and...
This whole argument is bullshit.

White privilege is fucking over us PoC for centuries in the worst ways imaginable, and being offended when we hate you.
“Hating anyone because of their race is wrong”? Shut the fuck up. You deserve it.
Be glad that we only hate you. We aren’t trying to kill you or enslave you.
This sort of thing makes me feel like the world will never move...

This! Exactly! It’s just like when someone revolves their entire life/interests/persona/activities/discussions around being, say, oh! I know! A woman! Or Black! Or Gay! Or Trans! Or any other thing that we don’t all share! Right! Right?!?
Oh, wait, I think maybe you were just being some kind of rude bigot towards a group of people who have very little social...
Responses to haters; tw: abuse, rape
justthinkingaboutcatsagain:
I think it’s funny that people search misandry tags and try to defend all the helpless men. Let me let you in on a little secret: they’re not oppressed. And please stop freaking out about my #kill all men tag. It’s a joke. The men are not in any danger. I couldn’t kill all the men even if I wanted to or tried. I’m also not a violent person, although I wish I were. I’d...

justthinkingaboutcatsagain:
I didn’t think I’d ever get over my ex. I had been the one to end it, but he was my partner and best friend for five years. I wanted to stay friends when we broke up. I was still in love with him.
Recently though, he told me he was annoyed by feminism. I got mad…
Lol what? we are supposed to be compassionate and empathetic? No. We are not ~supposed~...

pick up any history book
flip to any page
and no matter where you stop white people were fucking shit up for everyone
Dude, that’s dumb. Read the Bamboo Annals. Or any other book that precedes the Romanization of the Northern tribes of Europe.
You won’t even find any white people.
Let alone ones that are fucking shit up.
The truth is that any group that achieves...

Getting over an ex

Recently though, he told me he was annoyed by feminism. I got mad at him, and he said I’d make a misogynist out of him yet.
And then I realized, I really do hate all men....
