Did you know that in the 70s, the British Army created Satanic Panic stories in Northern Ireland. They used blood from the mess hall, set up altars etc and then contacted the media

I feel like part of what the christians were doing there was trying to enforce gender roles by falsely accusing people who break them of wrongdoing.
make the right defend the indefensible, described as uncharitably as possible
i would like to feel like someone at any echelon of political power has the pattern recognition to see that this is the strategy. that this is governing for child abusers by child abusers. and i would like them to give a shit about actual children above hypothetical ones. they won't.
i am almost 40 and i literally do not have any point in my life where the right wing has not been doing moral panics about imaginary child abuse while institutionally working to enable real abuse of real children. if it's not the satanic panic it's fucking pronouns.
why can't the democrat messaging on trans people be "no, we are not going to force children to undergo genital inspections in order to play sports"
こゃ〜🦊✨️
honestly creating anything right now is an act of resistance against both incoming waves of conservative censorship and capitalist AI ventures. every bit of art makes a difference, it doesn't have to be finished it doesn't have to be perfect it just needs to exist to tip the scale back to humanity
Elon Musk tried to kill California high speed rail to sell cars that kill kids? Push rail transit. GOP defunding schools leaving kids to starve to death? Free public education and school lunches. Real estate donors leaving homeless kids to die out in the cold? Buy back houses and make them public.
Lest you say "it's not like that in the United States," I am currently representing a person facing criminal charges for - and this is true - saying "protect trans kids" during a school board meeting
we need to curb religious exceptions to child abuse laws and tax away their wealth. we can't have reactionary cults oppressing the rest of us
thats because inflation in groceries and housing outstripped wage rises. like hell even rural areas aren't cheap anymore despite no jobs and shrinking populations out there
gen z men are slightly to the left of their fathers. gen z women are significantly to the left of their mothers to a huge, society changing extent.
true. the thing is that moderate conservatism is a dead ideology, so there's nothing in between joe biden fans and naziism in gen z. you're either at least nominally left of center or full on despicable
that kind of thing ought to push you left, if anything
right-wingers aren’t opposed to child rape they are opposed to not getting to be the only person who rapes their own children children are property to them and anyone other than themselves deciding what kind of sex their children are exposed to is a violation of their property rights in their mind
They Want children to belong to their parents until well into adulthood
This wouldn't be piracy. They can just crack open the ROM files themselves rather than rely on internet copies. This is the deep research in FAQs to track character behavior and the mechanics. This is more saying stop using Discords and starting making your own websites for wiki/guides again.
Just opened Instagram and immediately saw a video of someone claiming they’re anti-censorship while also saying they’re an anti. Yep, that’s enough Instagram for today 🙂.
they've literally done studies about this shit. like they've studied whether pornography makes you wanna hurt women based on the content material. and they found nothing. feminism and pornography has been such a long debate, it's stupid they're acting so holier than thou. sincerely.
pesudofeminists being controlled opposition for the christian agenda has been a thing since the 80's and they're still taken seriously for some reason. we need to make a new wave of feminism and show them the door
Love this type of ‘’’feminist’’’ organizations that will happily USE women’s fears and trauma as arguments to spread their ideologies, while in the same breath erasing our opinions and existence as soon as it’s not convenient for them. Fucking embarassing.
Very interesting that they only focus on « the MEN defending their ´rape games’ ». As we all know, women have famously never made any noncon/underage/incest kink art, and there’s also definitely not a ton of women (many of them being survivors as well) that are anti-censorship 🙂.
This is an existential threat to the written word btw
Homework is basically just teaching kids to have a shitty work-life balance and to work for free outside their contracted hours.
Blueskys core audience is liberal and leftist users and they are the ones driving much of the posting activity. If the platform shifts to accommodate right wing users that base is likely to migrate back to other sites leaving Bluesky without its main draw. This is the niche it fills.
Somewhere in Iceland.
the school system is horrible to vulnerable kids by design
Don’t expect the PayPal ebooks situation, SB 20, or the Steam Early Access NSFW ban to be covered by the gaming press unless you start flooding these sites with tips and demanding coverage. PC Gamer and TheGamer are the only sites actively reporting on this issue otherwise. Everyone else? Nah
i dont think society is ready to confront the principle that the entire presence of "sex segregated facilities and institutions" is a society-wide "Boys Will Be Boys" situation rather than instilling a proper fear of annihilation in men from a young age
Somebody is throwing things out of a window of the White House wtaf
I've said this before and it bears repeating: One way we'll know if and when a real machine intelligence happens is that it will create art that is an artifact of its own intelligence, not ours, and it likely to be absolutely incomprehensible to us human on first approach. How cool with that be.
Remember how I keep calling out the mainstream gaming press for not covering NSFW censorship? For not giving a shit about adult devs? This is what happens. If you don't want devs to see RW YouTubers as their only option to get the word out and pay rent, then you need to pressure games journalists
don't give up. we aren't gonna let them win
cali doesn't need newsom. it needs newgoverner
Corporations control everything. Corporations want advertiser safe internet. Corporations also want to know everything about you so they can advertise to you. The government. All governments. Want to know everything about you. [Cont.]
A few people had questions of some of the states on my map such as NY/CA/IL moving up in risk for trans youth. If a state has moved up in risk, it's because of clinic closures at major clinics. I cannot in good faith keep a state low risk if state laws are not being enforced to keep clinics open.
Even in florida, charges like this don’t stick. But the point is to terrify queers into silence, with the knowledge that whether the charges stick or not, they will jail us, and if they can, brutalize us whole they have us. Florida Government endorses the Pulse massacre.
I have to keep looking at these maps to remind myself that my position, as an adult trans person in Massachusetts, is by far the most stable situation for a trans person in the entire country. The threat to trans people is not future or speculative. It is here, ongoing, spreading, and worsening.
It's not just the Pulse memorial, DeSantis is ensuring any and all murals across the state that go against his bigotry must be painted over and ripped out. www.axios.com/local/tampa-...
Gavin Newsome isn't beating trump, he's becoming trump.
you'd be correct. you're dealing with fascism here, assume the full capacities of the machine. you ideally don't want to have anything on them they'd use as an excuse to harass you. ssd.eff.org it's time we all learned how to protect ourselves

and within a week the new term got misused just as bad as the old one
>anime child sex abuse images i don't think you can qualify that as "child sex abuse images"
personally I wouldn't cross a border with non-burner devices, and I'm not "doing anything wrong" as the apologists put it. if you like the wrong kind of hentai they call you a sex criminal. if you traffic real children, they call you Mr. President
wealth inequality has gotten too extreme for anything less than fascism to keep a lid on it, especially when your country is fueling a genocide of millions on live TV
its also INCREDIBLY subjective bc its fiction and you can slap any age on any character like there is not some massive difference between the author labeling the anime girl 17 vs 18 lmao
"illegal drawings" and "illegal comic books" are phrases that should not exist. "child sex abuse anime" is a fucked up phrase when by definition there was no one abused. someone's hobby, their interest in cartoons, is absolutely not "abuse".
it's unclear exactly how this person was caught but it's worth restating that if you travel across borders and you have *any* anime porn on you or saved on any account you're logged into, you *have to* format your devices and make sure you're logged out. it's fucked up that that's necessary…

I think more work needs to be done to make it easier to have sustained back and forth conversations and to jump into active conversations, but this isn't a bsky exclusive issue by any means
You would think, right, that more people would have a general awareness by now that a lot of the easiest experiences are always kinda crap. It's not called slop for nothing. Anyway, form real connections. Seek to understand why ideas are popular or unpopular with the crowd here. And have fun.
In my estimation, a lot of the people who have problems with Bluesky are so used to platforms just serving up the content buffet that they're unwilling to do the work to have a good experience here. That work is the social part of social media.
It’s a war on women
They don't want women to work, attend college, vote, divorce, or resist rape. And they definitely don't want them to have access to birth control. Overturning Roe was just the beginning.
Attacking trans kids was never just about trans people - It was a wedge issue to dismantle protections and bodily autonomy of LGBTQ+ people AND women! The Christo-fascist right need white, fertile cis-het breeding machines to combat their ‘great replacement’ obsession! 😖
It started with “legitimate concerns” with a side-order of bunkum science before they banned puberty blockers for trans kids too! Note: Puberty blockers are essentially doing the same thing as the pill - temporarily blocking hormone receptors to pause specific biological functions.
we're gonna have to buy birth control with monero
very direct evidence that video game piracy is important in the preservation of video games
Immigration is a very good thing and we should be facilitating it on a massive scale!
Pervert to pervert communication is the most beautiful sacred thing in this world ...
We really need a law that says payment processors have a duty to process payments for legal stuff, and that TOCs that restrict purchases are illegal and will attract ruinous fines
No one cares about what happens to marginalized ppl. If they did they would actually take action instead of relying on the state. Indonesia is actually showing ppl the way by not accepting the reality their govt is imposing on them. You’re not aware and I don’t think many even care about the danger…
and that's before you get into sneakernet networking, which has also evolved over the years www.complete.org/nncp/ enterprising teens could run an entire shadow internet if properly motivated
modern flash drive capacity means that you can fit so much shit into so little money, you'd be selling for a small % markup over the raw cost of the drive if you sell by the TB you'd paying about $25/TB before tax on external hard drives
the future of the internet is its past: a bunch of horny teenagers downloading “milfs-xxx.avi.exe” from sketchy websites and fucking up the family computer
SWERFs are christian controlled opposition. they don't deserve to call themselves feminists
exactly. if you have a legal regulated porn site it's easy to enforce rules like "no children" but that just went out the window
"Something on the Internet that requires you to narc on yourself has LOST REVENUE whilst ones that DON'T make you narc on yourself are TRIPPLING REVENUE! HOW WEIRD IS THAT?!" That's actually the single most consistent tech story in fucking history but okay?
I cannot overstate just how awful this stupid fucking bill proposal is - adding backdoors into encryption on OS level - "sniff" every single message before it gets encrypted AND SAVE IT CENTRALLY - let a goddamn hallucinating "AI" mark people as criminals it needs to be stopped, post haste
I'm not seeing the connection between religion and duty here
It starts at home w authoritarian parenting. Behavioral modification throughout childhood with "because I said so" or physical/emotional abuse sets kids up for believing that punitive treatment isn't only a positive thing, but a necessary enforcement of Republican social 'norms' = fascism.
it's a minim atomized version of the traditional family, with the bonus of promising that every man be king of their own little castle instead of having to wait for the patriarch of the family to die of old age
It's seriously the fault of patriarchy. People want a (violent, authoritarian) daddy to be in charge and make them feel safe. And if you sense a theme between this & my thread about men seduced into fascism because they're mad they don't have sex mommies: yup. Patriarchy is emotionally stunting.
PragerU is testing, not for good teachers, but people who are *extremely* interested in children's genitals. Pedocon theory is a theory like gravity is a theory.
we have to free ourselves from the Christian's oppression. the church shouldn't be allowed to claim any moral authority in society, since they clearly have none
What the internet brought to porn wasn’t access or variety. It was anonymity. These laws requiring proof of age aren’t about protecting minors. It’s about removing that anonymity. They are puritanical in nature and execution, and the religious right’s enacting a Christian Shariah !!!
Keep up with the different surveillance technologies police are using across the U.S., from body-worn cameras to cell-site simulators. Stay informed using the Atlas of Surveillance. atlasofsurveillance.org/
China is going to eclipse the US based off electricity alone. They have a modern grid and have been increasingly electrifying their economy. They have massive surpluses of electricity and a lot based in renewables. The US has an aging grid and is tied to a future of burning fossil fuel for energy.
Liberals getting excited about Gavin Newsome feels like a person who keeps settling for shitty boyfriends. Like girl, you can do better for yourself - stop thinking you can’t do better. There is a guy out there for you. Look, your bestie New York City found a great guy and she’s had so many bad exs.
PayPal user in the UK lost their account after buying adult ebooks “about monsters and milking,” “some dubcon stuff” “My account got banned a couple of days ago for making purchases which violate the ToS. Upon querying w/ staff over the phone I've been told that it was ebooks that I've been buying”
A proposal to censor info about lawmakers is being sold as a safety bill. But it won’t protect them from anything but investigative reporting. Contact your senator to tell them to scrap the bill and protect their safety — and everyone else’s — without sacrificing transparency and accountability.

That we are still using an educational system designed to make complacent factory workers by destroying creativity & love of learning is insane. The Victorians knew exactly what they were releasing on the world. 1/
I think it's best for people to make a linktree at minimum or ideally a full-on personal website
During this tough time-- We are going to have to unlearn-- A LOT. Including how we learn, how we teach, how we gather in community, etc etc. Yes, the old institutions are showing their weak points. Sure we want to burn them down. But what do we do with how they've conditioned us internally?
JAST & J18 Publishing are both out of San Antonio's San Japan due to SB 20 going into effect on Monday
antis are just nazis, I don't care if they don't think of themselves as such, they're doing fascism, so same diffrence
the term CSAM is misused just as bad as CP was. terrible people won't stop with that offensive and harmful equivocation
“Perhaps more concerning for anime fans would be how Crunchyroll and other companies in Texas could be held liable under this law. The companies will either move their servers and headquarters or purge ecchi and other content from their libraries” www.japanpowered.com/anime-articl...
