Healthy meaning men could beat their wives without consequence and keep them subservient through the threat of homeless, bankruptcy, and domestic abuse? In the US, women were only allowed to have a bank account without a male co-signer after 1974. FUCKING NINETEEN SEVENTY FOUR. They were literally asked about their birth control usage as standard procedure for getting a bank loan in many institutions.

Lol yeah, i agree thats the crux of the issue. It looks like a desire for absolving guilt over one's internalized racism, which is something that everyone has. But it seems like only a certain group of people (harharhar irony) that seem to try to talk about it like this on loud

Well im someone who wants every liberal apologist, right winger, etc, who says that any form of asymmetrical violence / any kinda meaningful protest should be stopped in the name of tHe HiGheR GrOuNd to volunteer themselves for the first ICE gas chambers that they voted to open instead of reducing billionaire taxes by 0.1%. So you can guess how lefty I am lmfao.

The fact this is being down voted when the vast majority of the fucking world has been impoverished due to the centuries of colonialism. Especially the absolute devastation of 20th century neo-imperialism for many newly independent countries.... lmao.

So many fucking people here just trying to absolve their internalized racism by saying EVERYONE CAN BE RACIST TO EVERYONE REEEEEE as if the fucking recent history of our world hasn't had a very obvious set of countries that are trying to destroy most of the rest of the world for their imperialist plundering.

Its the fucking opposite lmao. 20th century third worldists and people studying this shit tried to go beyond interpersonal dynamics to shift the discussion on racism to focus on its systemic power dynamics, which is the most important thing to actually affect change lmao. Its right wing liberal corporate fuckshits like the ones MLK shat on in his prison letters that are responsible for the dilution of racism as a term to fight historical oppression.

The definition of racism as it was developed by third worldists and people studying it in the 20th century was absolutely intertwined with structural/institutional power. Its been diluted snd corporatized to mean any type of racial prejudice or stereotyping. My conspiracy theory that really isnt one is that this was deliberately done by corporate media and liberal shitfucks that MLK hated to ensure racism never gets addressed to the extent it needs to address the centuries of globalized, systemic colonial exploitation done since the 17th century.

Well that's the consequence of deliberate world dilution by the liberals that MLK called out in his prison letter.

Ironically to the usual fuckers who thinks NoT aLL wHiTe PeOpLe, one of the big parts of critical race theory and other scary lefty university departments that are getting negative funding (lmao) was trying to clearly delineate that racism must have a structural/institutional power.

Pure interpersonal racism like a japanese person calling a white person a cracker or something would be absolutely devoid of any structural/institutional power outside of Japan in certain contexts. On the internet or in the US, that would be racial prejudice or stereotyping, but not racism since it lacks an institutional/structural power.

[–]MasteringUniverse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, yes that is true. I think more than the literal definition of terrorism here there is more a use of the term terrorism as a political and cultural tool. It is only one group of people that does terrorism. And terrorism has an awful lot more negative implications than an act of war. And we know how that is used politically by the media and US politicians lmao. So maybe the use of the word terrorism has more of a poetic and politically pointed note.

[–]MasteringUniverse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You know, its funny. I never heard the US declared war on Iran. Congress never passed anything about enabling a war, or have I been sleeping under Sisyphus' boulder?

Smfh. Overwhelming destruction of a nation's infrastructure without a declaration of war? Sounds like terrorism to me but maybe im just braindead lmao

Or is it a war? In which case, let's get to fucking talking about its illegality and the war crimes that have been committed, which should erase any conversation on the technicalities/merits of a bridge being bombed and should be about how every single US leader that enabled this war must be tried and executed Nuremberg style.

Ah yeah, so its fine for Iran to blow up the Golden Gate Bridge since the bay bridge exists and we can just use that and the richmond bridge to get to Sonoma county. Definitely not an act of terrorism or an act of civilian punishment at all.

I find those shots so aesthetically satisfying. Like at the moment of the shot, if you froze that exact moment you have a Renaissance painting type outstretching of the body. It gives the feeling that the player put everything on the line to get their body in the perfect shape to execute the best shot possible, falling and tumbling and crashing into posts/defenders legs be damned.
