Honestly, between the Republicans' deliberate Russian-disinformation smear campaigns, and the Online Leftists' deliberate just-flat-out-stupid smear campaigns, it makes me want to get a big Biden 2024 flag and wave it overhead like a Trump Cultist and yell about how he's the greatest president ever. Because I want to be nuanced and mature and reasonable about his record, what he's done well and what remains to be improved, and otherwise treat it like a sensible adult human historian person, but my god, y'all make it hard.
#hilary for ts#politics for ts#you can tell that biden is being effective and doing good things#because the republicans and the russians want so badly to stop him (and are working together to try it)#and the online leftists keep changing what they need to whine and lie about#oy fucking vey

What a fun time to be Jewish with nuanced opinions I’m sure goyim aren’t going to be wildly antisemitic and support the murder of Israeli Jews and goyim.
#antisemitism#jumblr#oy fucking vey#so many of you refuse to acknowledge nuance#hamas isn’t for palestians any more than right wing Israelis

A quarter of a century after Henry VIII's legislation, the parliament of Philip and Mary returned to the [Romany] problem. Notwithstanding past attempts to rid England of 'certain outlandish people calling themselves Egyptians', such people had 'enterprised to come over again into this realm, using their old accustomed devilish and naughty practices and devices, with such abominable living that is not in any Christian realm to be permitted'. The legislation of 1554 raised the rhetorical temperature—the [Romany] were now 'devilish' as well as 'outlandish'— and added punitive weight. The new law again called for their forced removal, imposed fines on facilitators of [Romany] immigration, and death for any [Romany] lingering over a month. Henceforth it was a felony to be [Romany] in England [...] the choice was expulsion, the gallows, or assimilation, provided the law could bring them within reach.

idk what possesses someone to blatantly put nazi love in public like that but protip: don't do it
there is a difference between liking fictional characters who do fictional bad things in fictional worlds and liking fictional characters that are actually representing real horrific actions in our real world
There. Is. No. Excuse. To. Romanticize. Characters. Who. Are. Actually. Nazis.

Just as whiteness isn’t a sin neither is the fact that westerners have been influenced by cultural Christianity. Cultural Christianity is a system not something you are. Just like white supremacy is not something you are it’s something you can uphold. If you’re a white anti racist you still can have biases you don’t realize because they never influenced how you’ve been treated.
It’s very telling that so many ex Christian atheists will call what we’re talking about “original sin”. It’s not a sin and you aren’t stained by it. The point is that all religions are tied into cultures. You don’t need to shed every part of your culture just because some of it has upheld bigoted beliefs.
Just as the idea that white people have no culture contributes to the spread of white supremacy so too does the idea that Christianity isn’t a culture. People need to realize that this line of thinking is what causes people to lose their cultural identities and makes it so white supremacy becomes the dominant ideology. Why do you think so many white people know almost nothing about the countries they’ve come from and their ancestors’ traditions. It’s because white supremacy wants to be the only culture so it can be the dominant one.
It’s not a sin to be influenced by cultural Christianity and as @tikkunolamorgtfo said many of us who are a part of minority religions also have been heavily influenced by it. I’m still working on de assimilating and connecting more fully to my Jewish cultural heritage and I was raised Jewish.
So, I've been reading the arguments that several Jumblr folks, including @starlightomatic and @tikkunolamorgtfo, have been having with ex-Christian atheists over the term "culturally Christian", and said ex-Christian atheists' staunch refusal to engage with the term, and it got me thinking that I see a very similar dynamic to that with white liberals, especially white queer people who came from conservative areas.
A lot of the time, white liberals from conservative areas, especially queer white liberals, have been hurt, sometimes badly, by their conservative communities. They've been marginalized and oppressed by white conservatives, and so they run as far in the opposite direction as they can to disassociate themselves with them. Which, I will add, is perfectly valid, and I can understand why they do so.
What's not valid, however, and is also extremely common, is when a person of colour then starts talking about white supremacist culture, and the white liberal insists that they cannot be racist, because they were marginalized by white conservatives, and they react with extreme hostility.
What's missed here is that the axis of oppression is a different one. Yes, white queers are marginalized by white conservatives, but it's on the basis of their queerness, and they still benefit from white supremacy on account of their whiteness. In the same vein, yes, ex-Christian atheists are marginalized by Christians, but it's on the basis of their atheism, and they still benefit from Christian hegemony on account of their being...
And here is where the term "culturally Christian" comes into play: All the things adjacent to Christianity that are still informed by and contribute to Christian hegemony. Analogously, whiteness is adjacent to, informed by, and contributes to white supremacy. And just as a lot of white liberals really, really don't want to think of themselves as white, because it feels like being lumped in with the white conservatives who hurt them, culturally Christian atheists don't want to think of themselves as being culturally Christian, because it feels like being lumped in with the Christians that hurt them.
And just as whiteness portrays itself as the absence of race, making it extremely hard to map out its defining characteristics as a discrete phenomenon, Christianity's portrayal of itself as a religion separate from culture—and the ensuing portrayal of ex-Christian atheists by themselves of being a cultureless secularity—makes it extremely hard to map out the defining characteristics of cultural Christianity.
But, just as we have to mark out the bounds of whiteness to dismantle white supremacy, we have to mark out the bounds of cultural Christianity to dismantle Christian hegemony.
And those bounds aren't policed from the inside.
EDIT: Accidentally @'d the wrong person.

Not to ruin your day but thoughts on the 2025 project?
It is, with zero exaggeration or hyperbole, a literally perfect blueprint for fascism. If anyone is somehow still on the fence about voting for Biden, plans not to vote for Biden, or to throw away their vote on some third-party whackjob just to "send a message," I urge you to read these articles and understand the magnitude of what is at stake (courtesy, again, of the fucking Heritage Foundation):
A Rational Analysis of the Heritage Foundation’s 2025 Presidential Transition Project, “Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise”
The Heritage Foundation Plan to Help Trump End Democracy in America
What is Project 2025? Trump Shadow Network Plans to Overhaul 'Deep State'
‘Project 2025’: plan to dismantle US climate policy for next Republican president
#anonymous#ask#politics for ts#they are not being subtle!#they are announcing it all in the open!#and we still have 'both sides are the same wah voting is bad' nonsense going on!!!!#jesus fucking christ!!!!!#read the damn articles people!#they can and will do all of that and more!!!!#oy fucking vey

Look, the first step of getting back together with someone you hurt has to be an apology. Without an apology... the rest is meaningless. You literally broke up with her, said you didn't like women and refused to speak to her and now you're like 'yeah, we can totes get back together without a single word of apology from me' and like... what? you can't just 'make it happen' if you don't take the time to reflect on what you did.
Oh, great, an apology balloon. Very sincere. Ugh. Earn has nor right to try to look smug about this. You're the one who broke up with her in the literally most painful way possible.
#the secret of us#thai gl#seriously nope#is this really her only answer#fucking apology balloons#not like saying it to her#or explaining anything#nope just the balloons and smiling the whole time#oy vey#i would like to rescue lada and give her a new girlfriend now
