"Only things that I perceive and understand matter to me" really seems to be what you're saying in this. Funnily enough, it matters a lot to the people who are on the sharp end of racism, though. And you seem to think that because YOU don't see it, it's not a big issue.

Again: You don't need to be brown to be pulled over. Literally nobody said that. But if you're brown, you will be pulled over, no matter what. No matter how safely or perfectly you drive. No matter what your haircut is. New vehicle or old. There is no way to avoid it. Get it yet?

That's a gobsmacking effort to miss the point, my dude.

If you had brown skin, it doesn't matter how safely you were driving, you'd have been pulled over for _something_. And - as a fellow very-white person? I know for a fact that I got let off with a warning for a couple of things that would have gone very, very differently if I were a shade darker.

A coal pot, possibly, for the fireplace.

A lot of folks are having bad days.

Climate change forces populations out of their homes. It feeds "immigration crises." Fascists use immigration as a lever into power, because fearmongering works. Fascists also want to be able to pollute and exploit without restraint. They will exacerbate climate change for multiple reasons.

This is a useful and sensible thread, but also, the fact that the world burns every summer and at the same time multiple areas of the world are ditching their commitments to tackle climate change, is beyond unhinged. Don't let politics kill us through short-term ist populism.

'k, since that's what you want.

"Epoch Times" is untrustworthy as hell, too. A lot of anti-science grift gets published there.

I'm sorry. I wish I could help more. 😢

I've said it before and I've said it again: if you claim to be a leftist or feminist group but one or more of your positions aligns perfectly with religious fundamentalism and/or fascism, then you are not leftist and you are not feminist. And you need to take a long, hard look at yourself.

It is worth noting that this is overtly the playbook the anti-trans-rights groups are using in the UK, including the badly misnamed "Keeping children safe in education" guidance published under Starmer, to prevent even social transitions for youth. www.splcenter.org/resources/re...

Ok, going to tack on a few more resources here. These are all from the SPLC, from the US, but the people, ideas, rhetoric, and ➡️pseudoscience⬅️ are sadly shared across multiple countries, including the UK. Cass aligned with this in too many ways. 1. www.splcenter.org/resources/re...

Your husband is one hell of a tease. But honestly, the letdown...?

If anyone hasn't seen this discussion by Carl Bergstrom, go read it. bsky.app/profile/carl...

He already does. He was responsible for running a campaign telling people not to vaccinate against measles when there was an outbreak in Samoa, resulting in thousands of cases and 83 deaths. mvec.mcri.edu.au/the-dangers-...

And many of its personnel criminally prosecuted and jailed.
