Wow, I feel both seen and very attacked 😂

I do all of this and more. It’s constant, and it’s exhausting.

Ah, yes, women as possessions owned by their husbands and fathers, and used as objects to inflict revenge on other men with, how enlightened and progressive, and not just as shitty and harmful as when they do it. 🙄(heavy /s)

(and because defensive people like to make up straw people to protect their ego and cognitive dissonance - fuck the entire trump family, this isn’t a defence of any of them, it’s an indictment of how deeply misogyny is rooted in the entirety of society, including leftist circles that consider themselves “progressive” yet are happy to resort to this kind of counterproductive and harmful bullshit)

There are a lot of existing alternatives to temp mail, you shouldn’t need to resort to anything he has to offer…

I’m certain you didn’t mean that they are, but the meme format kinda implies it, so I just thought I’d point out from here on that intersection that the two groups aren’t mutually exclusive😊

(also shout out to fellow enby and or agender afabs lol)

Otherwise both this and op are sadly spot on.

I couldn’t help it 😊

(edit to clarify, just in case: couldn’t help but describe them that way. I just realised how confusing that phrase might be in isolation to someone who isn’t a native speaker, or maybe my stoned and tired brain is just overthinking it lol)

You can’t fix something that is working exactly as intended, nor should you pin your hopes on any measure enacted by the capitalist state to save you from the harms of capitalism, because it never will.

I now have the hilarious image in my head of a toddler giving their granny a pat down (image of one in case the term isn’t familiar to everyone), thanks! 😂

E: replied to wrong person, oops! 😂

Jokes are meant to be funny.

Ah yes, crabs in a bucket, doing yet another of the capitalist’s jobs for them… 🙄

I’m honestly not sure what the point of your story is, if anything, it was a surprisingly good result that the teacher was removed and the child wasn’t abused any further, and quite gross that the protest was against this happening. Sounds like you agree with the protestors and were not happy with that result and think the child should have been subjected to even more scrutiny? Which is an odd point to try and make around a group of autistic people talking about being abused by schools and other institutions.

Literally last month an autistic kid was arrested and suspended for a “bomb threat” AFTER all they found his bag was a stuffed toy.

Also

a otherly-able (I hope this is a okay descriptor)

No, it’s not ok. Disabled is the word you are looking for.

Unfortunately autistic kids still today, because knowing that autism exists and is much more common than previously realised hasn’t really stopped anyone, but rather just gives ableists more opportunities to express their ableism.

For context:

In 2023, the telecommunications company Orange generated around 17.73 billion euros in revenue in France. The revenue of Orange in the European country has fluctuated over recent years and peaked at around 18.5 billion euros in 2020.

Yup, it’s more of a thing those in power like to tell themselves to maintain their cognitive dissonance and keep them as far removed as they can from the direct consequences of their actions.

Fair enough, I get your point that there is a philosophical question with no consensus on an answer in the kind of example you gave (potentially, unknowingly, unintentionally causing harm to a single individual at some hypothetical point in the future), and that there are interesting discussions to be had about those kinds of situations, but I still maintain that the example bares no relevance to the situation we’re discussing here (deliberately, certainly, directly and immediately causing the deaths and suffering of countless people), because as you say yourself, it’s quite easy to make the direct link from CEO to deaths.

Except

If I leave a rake on the ground and it rusts over 5 years

Is categorically incomparable with “I implemented a robot specifically designed to withhold healthcare from as many people as possible to save my company money and gain me a big fat bonus”

I wish it were any consolation at all to say you weren’t alone in those feelings…

Oh yeah, I completely support getting these people’s names and photos out there.

I’ve played Rabbit Escape but looks like it’s only for android and pc

“The person who killed a CEO who sanctioned the deaths of countless people for profit iS tHe rEaL nAzI!!11234” 🙄
