Not you defending North Korea 🤡

almost every single shocking story about North Korea you have ever read (if not all of them) was either made up wholesale or sourced from North Korean defectors. these defectors are paid ludicrous sums of money by the South Korean government for their testimony, but that cash flow gets cut off if the defector comes across as even slightly sympathetic to their home country, which obviously leads to stories that make NK look good getting buried and stories that make them look bad getting spread to American media, regardless of how obviously fake they are, since anyone who questions them is obviously a fascist apologist who wants the world to get nuked.

i’m sure you already know this since you know so much about North Korea, but the US bombed almost the entire fucking country off the map and still holds annual military drills with South Korea in preparation to do it again right on the border as an intimidation attempt. if you can be cognizant of both of these facts and still take stories about officials being fed to 120 starving dogs at face value, you might be a fucking idiot

The fact there are mass graves being discovered at Al Shifa hospital to this day is beyond comprehension.

As a quick reminder, Israel withdrew from Al Shifa hospital on April 1st, following a two-week siege.

The news report from today (April 15) literally showed a man who was executed and buried along with his hospital report that mentions he was a wounded patient at the hospital.

Israel is a whole other level of evil.

Zionists love to run around questioning the validity of the numbers Gaza's ministry of health is putting out but you really have to wonder why are they burying hundreds if not thousands of Palestinians in mass graves??

if you want to make politicians change their behaviour you should always vote for them no matter what. but send them a letter saying that it makes you feel kinda bad that you're going to keep supporting them whether or not they change. and also the US is meant to rule the world

i love how absurdly low the standards of journalism are when reporting on socialist states.

Gender and fascism (and maybe we can coin the term, "gender fascism"

hot take roundup

i dont have time to write out a coherent essay on this but i've made quite a few tweets on my deep priv about patriarchy, gaslighting, and more so I'm going to dump them here for now and reorganize them later when I have more time, just so I don't lose them.

Mechanics of modern patriarchy, patriarchal stabilization, male terror and "good men"

The way men refuse to entertain the idea that women are rightfully fearful of men bc of the danger that men pose to women and go so far as to publicly mock women (might as well call them hysterical) who are this fearful is akin to gaslighting. Necessarily, the perpetuation of patriarchy in the modern day means that the existence of patriarchy has to be denied and women who say otherwise are hysterical bitches.

If you silence women who point to the existence of patriarchy then bc laws aren't *overtly* anti women then patriarchy can proceed unspoken and uncontested.

The metaphysics of patriarchy is insane tbh. And those on the frontlines of fighting against anti patriarchal women point to the minimalizing of male victims of SA as a "gotcha" as though that phenomenon isn't also highly informed by patriarchy. Silencing also includes the uncontested double standards when it comes to the behavior of women. If she gets violently assaulted, she wasn't careful enough and therefore it was her fault. If she overreacted then shes hysterical and summarily mocked and dismissed. Thus, women are punished for shedding light on patriarchal violence either through being victims or protecting themselves from victimhood.

In fact i believe that patriarchy is so sinister now because of the enforced belief that women have it *good* (accompanied by systemic terrorization of women that goes unreported or downplayed) and patriarchy is no longer a thing.

Therefore in order to conceal the continued existence of patriarchy, further patriarchal violence is inflicted upon women since being sexist is frowned upon now.

The mechanics of modern patriarchy are incredible. Elements of patriarchal violence are everywhere which makes women ever more desperate for "good men" who are held to low standards bc of how atrocious bad male actors are.

There are few explicit laws disenfranchizing women (aside from the overturn of roe v wade) so women who challenge or shed light upon elements of modern patriarchal violence (either by talking ab it or being victims) are decried as either being hysterical or victim blamed.

But with this relative lack of explicit cultural misogyny (like, men are better than women period) rxnary men have room to depict women and feminists as being THEIR oppressors (from either projection on what men have historically done or through subconscious misogyny that has them deem women as more prone to vices)

The undercurrents of misogyny persist, disproportionate rage is inflicted upon female bad actors in contrast to male bad actors, female characteristics and women in general are scrutinized with far more vigilance and punished severely for deviating from being "madonnas"

But because society isn't forcing women to cover their heads or that women are allowed to drive and vote (thereby conflating "serious" misogyny with The East and inherently downplaying the misogyny here) the misogyny in the west continues unabated and will intensify. And again, women shedding light on it are denounced as privileged and unserious hysterical manly spinsters lol

And also devaluing themselves in the process (i.e. i need to conform to patriarchal ideas of the "usefulness" of women otherwise i am defective and will end up a spinster hag, because im valuable only as much as a man can value me, but there is no patriarchy bc xyz)

Notice how the men in the replies and qrts of the post below are very very upset with the way that OP is shedding light on cultural misogyny that is so pervasive that husbands are statistically more likely to abandoning their terminally ill wives - in effect they're contributing to patriarchal stabilization by punishing those that shed light on modern patriarchy.

Are men "the prize"?

Part of the dehumanization of women is portraying them as being dependent on a man. If she doesnt have a man shes deficient. This plays out in the way women are paid less than men and therefore are less able to pay their expenses, on average, than a man. "Men are the prize" is an aphorism that implicitly demonstrates the dehumanization of women. Esp single women.

Men benefit from having a woman so that they have a live in therapist/maid/sex doll/baby factory to produce descendants with. Women benefit only insofar as the man isnt abusive and so that they arent a lower class of women who dont have a man who gets paid more than them. If "men are the prize" does that not verify the lower status of single women, both on a social and material basis? Men have long seen women as something to conquer and validate their masculinity (and where women can provide endless reproductive labor). whereas women have historically been so disenfranchized that being without a man, or being without another woman, can be deadly, simply because of how devalued you and your labor are.

Masculinity and transmisogyny

Lmao at cis men thinking that trans girls want to oppress them (rape them) the way that they oppress trans AND CIS girls all the time. All because their masculinity is perceived to be impacted. LMFAO

Good Christians and allyship

Pretty obvious that "good" Christians say shit like this because they just want people to convert and like the religion or something though so lol. Can't fight for anything if you're not recruiting people. If they werent unserious they would be making a leftist christian bloc that fights bigots on a legislative and cultural and religious level, which raises funds for queer people in danger, which marches at rallies and mobilizes to defend queer people.

Id say they should be militant too but unfortunately these types are soft so lol

Female sentimentality and dehumanization

Thinking about how men demean female sensitivity and sentimentality and act like we are run by our emotions and cant make decisions by ourselves (therefore should be dependent on men) and then start mass shootings bc they cant get a live in therapist/maid/sex doll (girlfriend).

They need to 1st characterize sentimentality as exclusively female, 2nd denigrate sentimentality as either lesser or straight up evil to keep women in a lower class, but then demonize women who don't provide emotional labor for them which they ultimately need as humans.

And when men get pressured out of being emotional and when certain women pressure them into conforming to patriarchal masculine norms suddenly patriarchy isn't something that ultimately oppresses women as a class lmao

Why white Americans love Hong Kong and Taiwan so much

Usians especially the men are so supportive of hong kong protests and taiwanese separatists because they see these regions as model minority areas (that the west exercises control over through extension of its influence), that need to be saved from the inhuman yellow peril.

Just as usian imperialists didnt want to "lose" China to the cpc, so too do usian male chauvinists not want to "lose" taiwan and hk to Big Bad Communists. The submissive asian woman character will be independent and lose her sexual allure, so to speak. Or moreso their availability to be ruthlessly exploited as women in colonized, subservient countries are.

A police spokesman explained that "the soldier opened fire believing that the person was Palestinian", according to the Israeli daily 'The Times of Israel'.

If you needed any other proof of how little Israel considers the life of a Palestinian, here you go.

Chavez's brother, Adan, on the ML guerilla org he used to be a part of, which not only had limited contact with the masses, but was also dogmatic and sectarian, and split up and ended disappearing. Sounds like a LOT of socialist orgs in the west, actually.
