the world we live in.
and people have the gall to say "think of the children", and then not speak on this.
I am so fucking angry.
Oklahoma has passed an anti-trans bill forcing people under the age of 25 to stop with gender confirmation, ie trans women have to stop taking estrogen and vice versa.
This is going through the trans community and is being discussed. Good. But there's more to know.
I am from Oklahoma. I am living in Oklahoma.
The bill passed because "protection of the kids".
They do not care about your kids
The legal age of an adult is 18. To enlist you must be 17 with consent of an adult, and 18 without. Now, you must be 25 to get gender affirming care. The drinking age is 21.
The consent age is 16.
Oklahoman youth can legally have sex with anyone their age or older, regardless of how old they may be.
We are not considered old enough to be an adult, but we can consent. Which makes it that much easier to get away with awful things.
I don't know how to fix this. I don't know how to help this. But please, spread this around.
If anyone has any information on ways to actively fight against this, please do so.
*sees someone different from you, even though their still human and not hurting anyone*
Normal human response:
"hm, interesting. I'll treat them with respect and possibly learn more so I may connect with them and understand more."
Their responce:
"MONSTER! AAAAAAA-"
This is totally good and normal and definitely wouldn't result in an increase of anti-trans violence and death at all.
It goes again the ten commandments for certain,
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness,"
but for some reason nobody gives a fuck about those after 3rd grade history.
We warned you this is where this is going.
I don’t think at any other point in my life has it been more nakedly obvious the United States government functions first as an arms dealer and global police force for imperialism and an actual country with a government as a distant second. There’s is practically no pretense right now that it functions as anything else and the ruling class has no interest in even pretending otherwise. No education, no housing, no transportation, no new infrastructure, no healthcare, no welfare, no social safety net, no legal guarantees for bodily autonomy and basic human rights. Just an endless stream of weapons and money for war and military occupation (including the domestic military occupation through the “police). Nothing else matters, and they don’t care that we know it anymore.
Tw: child murder, transphobia
A child, on February 8th, was brutally killed. Why? They were getting bullied by other students because they were nonbinary. Spread the word. More people need to realize that transphobia, homophobia, and general hatred of minorities do not help our children. Hatred hurts our kids. Hatred kills them. Rest in power, Nex Benedict.
I don't love the vidio I find it shameful for all of us, no not the music drives me mad, but the beauty of the scene and the helplessness makes me feel so sad and full of charm.
It should be a requiem, we do not watch how everything passes. So irretrievable! Our children's children will learn certain things only from stories. And whether they will believe what they hear is the question. And if they believe what is told about the past, they will ask why we did not do anything.
My answer is already now we have dealt as always only with our hatred and our differences, with influence and power.
Everybody knew it and everybody could have done something but it was always just something else!
Sorry that you will never see a glacier! Sorry for the drinking water wars..... and for the intolerability of your being.

We were the most evolved animal with the cough understanding of the universe and the formation of the earth 🌎 but we were incapable of action. Because of the ignorance of the own knowledge of the connections, the not acting.
Our house burns and we argue about who owns which room.
We are just angry apes with a high technical understanding and archaic territorial behavior.
Every action you take can change the future.
People invent things to protect themselves from people, if anyone had thought that it would find a lot of friends on other occasions. I love the creativity and free will of people.
I admire how you can take an invention that is supposed to protect you from the destructive influences of evil-minded people and turn it into something positive.

I've never been afraid in the forest because there are only wild animals. I've only ever been afraid in civilization because there are people who think they're on the right side.

What a unique home it has everything ready for all its inhabitants and offers the best conditions for every form of living creature. Were it not for this one arrogant creature that has taken itself out of the ranks of all living beings and sees itself as the crown of creation.
But it is the grand design joke of evolution, a naked ape with a high level of technical understanding, an upright gait and far too high a potential for aggression and ashy territorial behavior.
Everything is connected to everything else and exists in a highly complex system, but the crowning glory of creation is thinking and existing outside this system of dependencies. The word environment already shows that even linguistically it is not understood or expressed that the human being is part of a system. Russia and China are thinking of a new world order what a joke nature is shitting on everyone's table and changing the situation so that China has more people than food and Russia's forests are burning. All geopolitical games for power and influence will turn into ridiculous monkey business when climate change has reached its point of no return.
The religions always have the idea that the end of the world is a bang, far from it dear people you must know it because you can see it day by day species disappear quietly step by step without a bang and the world does not end. Your actions have already caused so many species to disappear and did you hear a bang when the last freshwater dolphin disappeared in China? No, not Armageddon. So if you don't wipe yourselves out with a bang, there is only dwindling from one generation to the next until the last one is gone.
I am the good that negates and only wants good and yet creates evil. Ultimately, greed has made you disappear and the realization of the inability to understand complex systems and their dependency.
How long do you think the disappearance of humanity will take?
The oceans are full of micro plastics, your drinking water is running out, a large part of the currently still habitable planet is becoming increasingly too hot for you and so on..... by the way, one of the most stupid ideas at the moment is deep sea mining...... that just shows you have no safe word!

Earth, the Blue Marble, photographed during the Apollo 17 mission on this day in 1972.
We have one of the most beautiful habitats in the universe and what are we doing turning it into a dumping ground for human civilisations.
none of this was a problem before the technological age and the industrial revolution.
Our maker of the past civilisation has simply been removed with erosion and the passage of time.
But today this is no longer the case, we pollute this planet with our lifestyle crap.... what impact did a Roman clay pot have compared to a plastic bag or a plastic waste bottle?
nature has no safe word and will continue without us! The apocalypse is not a big bang it is a slow fall from one breaking point to another until it becomes unbearable.

Please don't fall for the false assumption that technology or AI will save us here. No, it will only make life more comfortable for a privileged few than the rest of humanity.
Do you know the scientifically completely superfluous experiment with the frog and the pot full of water on the cooker?
If you throw the frog into the pot of boiling water, the frog tries to escape its death by boiling by jumping.
However, if the same frog is already in the pot and the water is pleasant and is slowly brought to the boil, the frog remains in the pot and is cooked without even realising that it is being cooked.
So dear frogs of the next and next generations, I'm sorry that we ultimately didn't understand cause and effect and all these complex systems in order to do something in time.
However, in our defence I will mention that we were always killing each other or doing some other crap that had something to do with power and influence.
But I want to emphasise that we have always signed declarations of intent with good will but without binding measures.
Then again quietly sorry.....mod
Attention, this is not a joke but a killing joke,
Saudi Arabia takes over chairmanship of UN Commission on the Status of Women - human rights activists appalled.
Louis Charbonneau of Human Rights Watch made it clear on X (formerly Twitter): "Saudi Arabia's election to head the UN Commission on the Status of Women shows a shocking disregard for women's rights everywhere." A country that already imprisons women for fighting for women's rights has no right to such a post, Charbonneau continued.
He also criticised the other countries in the Commission for not preventing the change. "If everyone had stood up straight, this wouldn't have happened. But everyone kept quiet."
How can something like this go so wrong?
Abdulaziz Alwasil, Saudi Arabia's UN envoy, will be the chairman. According to the Guardian, none of the envoys from 45 countries raised any objections to his nomination at the CSW's annual meeting. There were also no opposing candidates.
The Philippines actually held the chairmanship for two years. However, other members from Asia had urged the country to hand over the seat after one year. Bangladesh had actually been intended as the successor, but instead Saudi Arabia pushed its way to the top with a lot of lobbying.
Let's put it plainly: everyone has let themselves be bought by a world of greed and corruption! That's what the nice, generous Saudis love. They simply buy influence and culture, football, golf, ...... pukes sorry
Saudi Arabia is trying to polish up its image to the outside world with reforms such as allowing women to drive.
What a charade, makeup on the ugly face of the unjust state.
Hooray, the goat has been declared a garden.
And they are about to prove to the saudis what they think of women's rights.
Completely nothing
Case: Manahil al-Utaibi
Fitness trainer faces eleven years in prison in Saudi Arabia
There have been some makeup reforms in Saudi Arabia recently. The country wants to appear cosmopolitan. At the same time, critics are silenced with long prison sentences. The case of a young fitness trainer is apparently no exception.
According to human rights activists, a female activist in Saudi Arabia has been sentenced to eleven years in prison for her choice of clothing and support for women's rights. Manahil al-Utaibi was sentenced in January - more than a year after her arrest - by a special court for terrorism, the organisation Amnesty International announced on Tuesday evening.
The accusations against the 29-year-old fitness trainer related to her clothing and her calls on social networks to end the male guardianship system in the kingdom. She had also published videos of herself without the traditional Abaja overdress.
Saudi Arabia's government confirmed the arrest in December following an enquiry into the case by a UN special rapporteur. Al-Utaibi had been convicted of "terror offences", it said. The country's laws would protect the right to freedom of expression unless actions could "violate or exceed the limits of public order or social norms".
The last sentence immediately made us think of George Orwell! Freedom of expression with limits is good!
Amnesty International and the human rights organisation ALQST urged the kingdom to release Al-Utaibi immediately and unconditionally. According to them, she was physically and psychologically abused in detention following her arrest in November 2022. In addition, she was held in an unknown location for several months.
Well, chairmanship of UN Commission on the Status of Women
How is the status of Al-Utaibi ?
One of the representatives of nice Mohammed bin Salman, who simply had a journalist killed and dismembered in Turkey.
Shit, nobody would believe that in a novel, if you want to write a novel like that at all.
The new human injustice game for women's rights only. Now new from the nice grinning man who rules Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia rights vs women's rights
The New Game
There is only one dice with over all one on it for the women
A stack of cards with a card for women on it say go to jail for a long time and lose your wife and even your bonus human rights.
The Saudis always have one more bonus card when they need it where it says we always win.
A board of politicians, police, special courts, torturers, prison and just an absolute terrorist suspect wife.
Start of the game: The woman catches and does something really stupid she thinks she's women right, and Saudi Arabia wins.
Game idea from the makers I have a journalist killed in Turkey and nobody can catch me : Moammed bin Salman.
"I think I need help
I'm drowning in myself
Did someone turn the lights out
Or is it just another dark cloud in my head?
Cause I'm cut deep, my heart won't beat
Deep down low it's killing me
If I wanna scratch out yesterday
I've got so much I need to say
(I've got so much I need to say)"
