Some women are conditioned to be fragile and weak, and to believe that it's a sin to outperform a man. Her feminism would involve allowing women to be strong.
Some women are expected to be strong at times when they can't. Her feminism would involve reassuring her that it's okay to not be strong.
Some neurodivergent people are raised to believe that they're too stupid to ever amount to anything. Their disability activism would involve reassuring them that they're capable.
Some neurodivergent people are raised to believe that they're smart and gifted, and are expected to live up to impossible standards. Their disability activism would involve allowing them to fail, make mistakes, be stupid, etc.
Some children are constantly reminded "you're the child, I'm the adult" in order to deny their autonomy. Their youth rights activism would involve treating them like an adult at times when they feel ready for it.
Some children are treated like adults in order to justify increased expectations or to downplay abuse against them. Their youth rights activism would involve allowing them to be a child.
There is no one-size-fits-all solution to oppression. Each individual person's experience is different. Whatever trauma is caused by their oppression, the activism should focus on undoing it.

One fun lesson from the long history of speculation about the future is that we simply cannot imagine most of the ways in which the future will be different. 19th century authors in the midst of the early Industrial Revolution wrote about a 1990s where people still took carriages from place to place and the Ottoman Empire was a major world power. 1920s authors didn’t anticipate the invention of the computer, and 1950s authors didn’t anticipate its miniaturization, or the importance of networking. They also thought we’d have Moon bases by now. I don’t know what the blind spots of early 21st century futurism are, but I know they exist, and that any attempt to simply extrapolate current trends is going to fall flat on its face sooner or later. Sometimes it’s because technology improves in ways we don’t expect, and sometimes it’s because it doesn’t improve in ways we do expect, and sometimes it’s because history or social forces come in out of left field and shake everything up.

She got her claws stuck in a blanket (I need to trim them tonight) and I freed her from it. I guess she must be grateful because as soon as I sat back down she came over to snuggle in my lap ☺️🧡😺

I have to hand it to Donald Trump, I didn’t think the sequel to the 1932 Great Emu War would be a trade war against the penguin nation but he truly continues to be an innovator in the stupidity industry
