I’d like to send a special “fuck you buddy” to all the boomers that told me “oh you’ll get more conservative as you get older, once you get some money”
I don’t know what world those people live in, but every day since probably 1989 everything I have seen in the world has only convinced me more and more that capitalism is a disease that is destroying lives and the planet.
Hey remember how for years anyone interested in or working on decentralization was told "yeah but it's not moderatable, you need centralization for that"?
Isn't it funny how the two big centralized social media websites are now both "neo-nazis-are-cool-here" websites
Isn't it just a whole barrel of laughs
Imagine a world where those fighting for software and hardware freedoms aren't constantly bending the knee to corporations at the expense of public good.
Imagine a world where the fight for software and hardware freedoms, and the rights to online privacy and safety are not determined by what the EFF, FSF, GNU Project, and OSI find convenient.
Imagine a world where the labor of developers, the right to repair for end users, and the rights of privacy and safety for all, are held in higher regard than the "rights" of corporations.
Imagine a world where the gatekeepers of public discourse on these topics are cast out for betraying the spirit of the beliefs they claim to uphold, and for betraying the public trust in the name of upholding the letter of the law.

“Hey didn’t you recently get sick from simply going to the beach a couple of weeks ago? And weren’t you sick with something else just before that? And you had whooping cough 6 months ago too! Wow, you get sick a lot. Anyway, what were you saying?”
I just reached out to the four people on Facebook who I do not have alternate contact info for. I told them I will be closing my account in a few days and gave them my contact information.
Within five minutes they all replied with their contact information. I'll be informing my D&D group tomorrow during our game. Friday, I'll deactivate.
It really is that easy. If you want to delete yours, do not let the fear of losing people stop you.

"Intersex experiences, and intersex history, were often co-opted and erased by Baeddelism. This was often more a byproduct of their beliefs than an overtly-stated idea, but most notably, the term “Baeddel” itself is likely more applicable- if not exclusively applicable- to intersex people, rather than trans women. Making their reclamation of it as a “transmisogynistic slur”, or their claim that the word’s existence means that “transmisogyny is the root of all oppression”, incredibly ignorant- if not actively harmful misinformation."
"Trans men also played an important role in Baeddel ideology, and the resulting treatment of trans men is what is often remembered today. Baeddels generally believed the following, either explicitly or implicitly:
- Trans men are not oppressed, or experience so little oppression that it hardly matters.
- Trans men do not experience misogyny, even prior to transition.
- Trans men have access to male privilege, or trans men have an easier time passing, and frequently go “stealth”; thus benefiting from male privilege as well as cis privilege.
- Trans men are often (or always) misogynistic and transmisogynistic, and are not held accountable for this.
- Trans men oppress cis women.
- Trans women enacting violence on trans men is “punching up” at oppressors, and therefore not only permitted, but encouraged.
- Trans men are inherently violent, or become aggressive and violent when they go on testosterone HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy)
The impact of this ideology is often discussed among transmasculine people because of the depth of harm it caused, directly and indirectly — and it was very much intended to. Harm caused to transmascs was not only permitted or excused, it was often actively celebrated."

People be like "sure baeddels had a few cringe beliefs but that's all" and the beliefs are literal radical feminism, trans inclusive version..........
"Baeddels essentially built upon the foundation of @monetizeyourcat’s ideology that had been gaining traction on Tumblr in the years prior, with some additions that ultimately defined their movement:
1. Transmisogyny is the form of oppression from which all (or most) other forms of oppression stem.
2. Privilege is granted on the basis of assigned sex. (“AFAB” or “Assigned Female at Birth” vs. “AMAB” or “Assigned Male at Birth”)
These fundamentals of Baeddelism were essentially a rebranded form of Radical Feminism, much like Cat’s ideology. In particular, they drew from the Radical Feminist idea that misogyny was the “primary” form of oppression; that which all other oppression stemmed from. Baeddels only tweaked this idea to replace “misogyny” with “transmisogyny”, which led to the rest of the conclusions Baeddels drew."
