You can only dehumanize people so much before they come to see it is you that lacks any humanity. Don't expect kindness or even civility from those you've treated as subhuman.
"Baby left alone"
She died. A woman died & the news frames it as she abandoned her newborn. She had no community, no help, died & was only discovered days later & the headline is "baby left alone." Mothers truly are nothing to our society. A mystery why women are opting out.
TW rape
I'll never forget the backlash to this from men online adamant that this had nothing to do with rape. ENRAGED at the suggestion it was a metaphor. In hindsight, it reminds me how angry men get when women confront them with the horrors of rape & suggest they should care.
Women are told from childhood that a man is the prize & a wedding will be her one special day. And men go out of their way to ruin it. The way men punish women (& perform for other men). And they wonder why women are realizing this isn't for them & won't bring them happiness.
I keep seeing Adriana Smith "gave birth." She didn't "give birth," a fetus was cut from a corpse. She & her family were denied any dignity in her death. She was dehumanized, designated an incubator, & desecrated. By the very system that killed her.
Men: we can't wait for sex robots so we can be as brutal as we want & never have to talk to women
Women: 🤷♀️
Women: I fear a bear less than I do men
Men: 🤬🤬🤬
Whenever people wonder how women end up/stay in abusive relationships, look at how our culture constantly sympathizes with men & pushes women to ignore boundaries & abuse to stay. Even women's own friends & family.
Reminder: DV rates increase during sporting events.
Male-centered women will get you killed. Or raped. Even their own family. Imagine telling your sister to just take it when your husband threatens to rape her. She learned a lot more about her sister than that she's MAGA. It isn't just an election, MAGAts are bereft of any decency
We recently ran out of water bottles, 5 gallon water jugs, and the yogurt our kids eat for breakfast.
I asked my wife what caused the breakdown in our household supply chain.
I can't recommend strongly enough to not do the same should you find yourself in a similar situation.
No one is suggesting they could fight a bear. They're saying bears don't pretend they're not bears. Bears don't rape women. People believe victims were attacked by bears. We don't shame people for being afraid of bears. And when a bear attacks a person, we euthanize it.
This is why so many men are aggressively attempting to silence women now. They want their kids and grandkids to believe they were good men and their wives were treated well.
I'll never stop thinking about not just the art, discoveries, inventions, & progress men have stolen credit for but also how much has been kept from us because the majority of the population was kept out or dismissed.
