“Liberals” can mean Liberal-identifying people who are actively derisive toward people struggling in poverty. It can also mean someone genuinely interested in helping people in poverty, but seeing themselves as superior for “making better choices,” or their NIMBY opposition toward efforts to provide housing to poor people in their community. I’ve been guilty of all…
Over the last couple of nights, as I’m trying to get to sleep, my hyperactive AuDHD mind has decided to start exploring ideas and keeping me awake. So I wrote some of them down, and this post will focus on the ones I had while imagining what I’d ask if I were interviewing for a…

Fellow white people in the US – we’ve been conditioned since birth by systemic racism and white supremacy. It doesn’t matter whether you wanted it or recognize it. It doesn’t matter if you grew up in a “Conservative” or “Liberal” Household or how you vote. Even having friendship, romantic, or familial ties to Black, Indigenous,…
I’m pretty fed up with USian Boomers & Gen X propagating McCarthyism. You are grown people. If you can’t be bothered with deprogramming from Anti-Communist lies, then you should also not express political opinions, which are inevitably based in that propaganda, and even if unintentionally, you’re going to have impulses to defend the Capitalist Establishment,…
If you didn’t already know, I have complex PTSD. It’s a daily struggle to keep the nihilistic, often cruel, brain weasels that chatter some of the most hateful self-talk you will likely experience. So I have to actively work to keep them at bay. One important way I’m able to do that is by countering…
It is essential we all embrace cooperative, communal, internationalist thinking and values in order to avoid extinction. Review who you’re consuming news and information from, and ask, “Cui bono?” (“Who benefits?”) from the bias & manner in which it is presented. Approach this using a class-based lens.
