    Yup. People who don’t see the difference between the two are not effected by the difference between the two. I also understand this is for both the negative and positive attributes of each administration.

    For Palestinians, I can absolutely sympathize that they see Biden supplying weapons to Israel as much as a Trump doing so. That shouldn’t be ignored.

    But on domestic policy, there is a stark contrast in the messaging and vision for LGBTQ folks, women, and black communities.

    I hope many in my circle see this, but I have had conversations with self described communists who don’t care at all about minorities. My takeaway was they became communist when they learned they could guillotine people.







  • To me I see this as a classic struggle many men have in a patriarchal society. Op is constantly wanting to be “manly” through having sex, taking a “manly” job that doesn’t fit with their true self, and feels in order to be a full human they need to be extraverted and with that usually comes a domination mindset.

    A great podcast for the lads here who are struggling with that is the “Man Enough” podcast. I felt so seen by it and moments where I was in tears.

    Men find themselves in an awkward position of being both the victim and perpetrator of a patriarchal society.
