“how dare you say that the people who dehumanize others deserve to be treated as pariahs” i don’t know how to explain to you that internalizing your own dehumanization and making that a fundamental part of who you are is habituating bad morals and that society cannot tolerate intolerance writ large.

if you spend your life hurting others because of your own unacknowledged pain it’s still your moral responsibility to tend to the obligations of repair you have necessitated. one can be a victim and a perpetrator. in fact, many perps WERE victims. the fact remains: you are the one called to act.

a good society produces freedom when the moral-relational field stabilizes around three central tenets: truthful memory, consideration for others, and the wherewithal to stand for truth in the face of domination. when we enable malicious actors to go unchecked, we lessen all our overall freedoms.

democrats love to force marginalized peoples to vote for their oppressors. they know that no one would enable the people harming them willingly. so they make people consent to their own domination. it’s all a display of liberals’ social coercive power.

I think people intuitively understand that democratic candidates tossing trans kids to the wolves is not only morally repugnant but also politically ineffective, otherwise they wouldn't freak out every time someone said they weren't voting for a democrat who did this

always remember:

Doctors and nurses are voicing their objections. I-638 would require EVERY girl who wants to participate in sports to go through biological sex verification. That means expensive, invasive, and utterly gross examinations. Protect our kids and let them play. Vote NO on I-638

your parents owe you everything for consenting to your birth; you owe your parents nothing because you never consented to your birth. cut them off, don’t cut them off — who cares? the relationship is yours to sour because it was all for you anyway. if it wasn’t for you, your caregivers are selfish.

This is a quietly metastasizing moral panic

there is no such thing as a perfect victim. there will never be such a thing as a perfect victim. victims come from every walk of life, every community, every marginalized group. victims can be any age. victims can be dangerous. victims can be mentally ill. none of these negate their victimhood.

what’s with this revitalized obsession with asking “do you disavow [X group]?” they’ve done it with communists, al queda, ISIS, the houthis, hamas, and now this. what’s the actual point? i don’t go around asking republicans if they’ll disavow nazism — even though the answer is no. so why ask?

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

I'm writing a mod in C# and it's reporting a warning on line 3 of a file but the warning is blank for some reason so the "problems" overview just looks like this
