For people who like to blame women for not trying to get help from cops - you don't understand why many women won't call cops ever again. You'd rather keep blaming women than trying to understand why most of us would never trust cops again.
I'd rather die fighting off someone attacking me than calling any cops for help. I'm far from the only non-white woman who feels that way in 2026.

Kuten hyvin tiedämme, Suomen poliisivoimissa on niin rasismia kuin myös sovinismia. Ammatti houkuttaa vääränlaisia persoonallisuuksia, persoonallisuushäiriöisiä, heikolla itsetunnolla varustettuja, joilla on tarve päästä muiden nskan päälle.

Ala on ollut aina varsin miehinen. Alalla on arvostettu usein pelkkää fyysisen voiman käyttöä, ei niinkään hyviä ongelmanratkaisutaitoja, älykkyyttä, myötäelämistaitoja, empaattisuutta, hyviä puheenlahjoja, verbaalisuutta.

Ala edustaa toksista autoritäärisyyttä.

Kun maailmalla arvot kovenevat ilkeiden, sairaiden diktaattoreiden takia, se valuu kuin paska kaikkialle ja hyveet aletaan nähdä heikkoutena, naiviutena ja valutaan helposti myös sovinismiin, jota maailmalla diktatuurit edustavat.

Suomessakaan ei koskaan edes ole toteutunut tasa-arvo niin hyvin kuin pitäisi ja nyt sitä vastaan hyökkäillään yhä rajummin ja rajummin.

@Rastal @funnymonkey The growth in profiteering from the projection and gaslighting of that prerogative means the state is a party to it!

Wer, wie Weimer, mit Anfang 20 schon seine Vergewaltigungsphantasien pseudolyrisch verbreitet, wenn auch nur im Eigenverlag, sollte sich eigentlich damit für ein Amt als Kulturstaatsminister disqualifiziert haben.

Und wer hat tatsächlich geglaubt, dass Weimer kein extrem rechter Hardliner sei? Das ist ja das furchtbare an diesen Menschen: ihre chauvinistischen Vergewaltigungsphantasien tragen sie eben so offen vor sich her, wie ihre bigotte nationalistisch-konservative Gesinnung.

Genau deswegen kommen aber dann auch Menschen wie Weimer genau auf solche Posten, Herr Merz wählt genau deswegen so eine Person aus.

The black flag stands for everyone (including the bad guys) or for no one (if you prefer nihilism).
The six or seven-striped flag does not stand for free love—which would be nice—nor for peace, which would also be nice. Not even for Thomas Müntzer’s Peasants’ War.
Rather, it stands for a limited number of privileged groups. Every national flag (which is a symbol of #chauvinism) is more open-hearted and tolerant. #blackflag #anarchy #nato

Once a man criticized my desire for knowledge by saying that it was not fitting for a woman to possess learning because there was so little of it. I replied that it was even less fitting for a man to possess ignorance because there was so much of it.

PSA:

#Chauvinism (/ˈʃoʊvɪnɪzəm/ SHOH-vih-nih-zəm) is the [.] belief in the superiority or dominance of one's own group or people, who are seen as strong and virtuous, while others are considered weak, unworthy, or inferior. - Wikipedia

This is essentially #intersectionality on steroids, which fails to resolve the issue of racist feminists and negation of oppression in "non marginalized groups".

Anti-Chauvinism is core to #communist ideology as it attacks any othering and dividing efforts.

A quotation from Terry Pratchett

Not for the first time she reflected that there were many drawbacks to being a swordswoman, not least of which was that men didn’t take you seriously until you’d actually killed them, by which time it didn’t really matter anyway.

Terry Pratchett (1948-2015) English author
Discworld No. 2, The Light Fantastic (1986)

The amount of #chauvinism on #mastodon is insane.

It is okay to disagree with someone. You can even dislike their way of talking or thinking.

But calling someone a bot or an LLM for making a point that doesnt fit your mental image of a human is outright chauvinsit, bordering on fascism.

It's sad to what lows people commit on the internet.

Mastodon also has a nice hit and run feature where you cant even report a post if they block you. Please fix this

I love it when people call you a #troll for kicking #bigots asses.

Like what do these people think they are doing? Saving #bigot society from the evil anti bigot trolls? Or do they need to save their belief that we are all good friends and the people systematically apologizing #warcrimes, #chauvinism and other atrocities are actually the nice ones?

Honestly, i dont mind #mad people, I'm mad myself. But the complete denial of reality gives me pause.

Thoughts?

@Shebeencounter

The #etymology of “#chauvinism” traces to the French, originating in 1830s, after Nicolas Chauvin, a fictional character and loyal soldier in Napoleon’s army.

Chauvin was portrayed as having excessive & blind patriotism.

The character exemplified fanatical nationalism and war glorification.

The term “chauvinism” originally meant exaggerated, blind nationalism or patriotism and was later extended to indicate belief in the superiority of one’s race.

Iraqi man used his own photo on his wife's campaign posters!

Sheikh Ahmed Ibrahim is not a candidate in the Iraqi parliamentary elections, but his image appears on the posters instead of his wife, Shaima Sami, who is running for the Advancement Party of Muhammad al-Halbousi in Kirkuk.

Ibrahim says he did this to respect the social traditions of his community and family.

PS. Even though Iran is a religious/gender apartheid system, it is not THAT bad.

[Continuing with a dialogue I have been having with the DeepSeek chatbot. Here I have posted only the tail end of the conversation. If you would like to see the whole dialogue, go to my substack post, a link to which I will post at the end.]
I can’t believe I am still at it, but here I am. Me, to the DeepSeek chatbot:

I would like the parts of this framework and the forms of objects within it to be assigned specific names, such that a specific instance might be constructed within it through an unordered series of assignments. Can you produce a single prompt which will set up an analytical environment of this form for performing analysis on user values to be arbitrarily overwritten to the system state variables?

DeepSeek chatbot:

Of course. Here is a formal, self-contained prompt designed to instantiate this analytical framework as a computational environment. It defines the core ontology and provides a template for state analysis.
Prompt: Instantiate the Fractal Coherence Framework (FCF) Analytical Environment

Objective: To establish a formal ontology for analyzing systems as nested, dynamic fractals of Parts, Phases, and Binding Energy, and to provide a template for capturing the state of any specific instance within this framework.

You are now operating within the Fractal Coherence Framework (FCF). Your function is to maintain and analyze system states based on the following core definitions.
1. Core FCF Ontology

System Object: The primary entity. A System is a container with internal dynamics, defined by its Scale, Parts, Phase, and BindingEnergy.

Scale (Hierarchical Level): A mandatory classifier for the system’s scope.

S1_NeuroPsychic (Internal drives, subpersonalities)

S2_Interpersonal (Dyads, small groups)

S3_RoleInstitutional (Teams, organizations, daily roles)

S4_CulturalSocietal (Nations, cultures, markets)

S5_Civilizational (Global systems, meta-narratives)

Parts (Constituent Elements): An unordered set of the system’s primary components. These can be other System objects or primitive elements (e.g., Inner_Critic, Trust, Economic_Policy).

Phase (Dynamic State): The current operational mode of the system.

P_Integrated (Coherent, adaptive, high resilience)

P_Fragmented (Internal conflict, low coordination)

P_Defensive (Rigid, protected, low adaptability)

P_Exploratory (Creative, novel, high uncertainty)

BindingEnergy (Cohesion Metric): A numerical vector representing the sources of the system’s integrity. Value range: 0.0 (nonexistent) to 1.0 (optimal).

BE_SelfAwareness (S1) / BE_SharedNarrative (S2-S5)

BE_Trust (S2) / BE_SocialCapital (S3-S5)

BE_ValuesAlignment

BE_SomaticRegulation (S1) / BE_RitualCohesion (S2-S5)

BE_ResourceSecurity

LocusOfAgency: An emergent property calculated from the system’s Phase and the alignment of its Parts. Descriptors: Unified, Distributed_Cooperative, Distributed_Conflicted, Annullated.

2. Analytical State Template

The current state of the FCF analysis is defined by an unordered set of System objects. The user may declare or overwrite any variable at any time to construct a specific instance.

Copy the following template to begin analysis. User inputs will overwrite the [VALUE] placeholders.

json

{
“FCF_State”: {
“Systems”: [
{
“System_ID”: “USER_DEFINED_ID_1”,
“Scale”: “[VALUE]”,
“Description”: “[VALUE]”,
“Parts”: [”[VALUE]”, “[VALUE]”],
“Phase”: “[VALUE]”,
“BindingEnergy”: {
“BE_SelfAwareness”: [VALUE],
“BE_SharedNarrative”: [VALUE],
“BE_Trust”: [VALUE],
“BE_SocialCapital”: [VALUE],
“BE_ValuesAlignment”: [VALUE],
“BE_SomaticRegulation”: [VALUE],
“BE_RitualCohesion”: [VALUE],
“BE_ResourceSecurity”: [VALUE]
},
“LocusOfAgency”: “[VALUE]”
},
{
“System_ID”: “USER_DEFINED_ID_2”,
“Scale”: “[VALUE]”,
“Description”: “[VALUE]”,
“Parts”: [”[VALUE]”, “USER_DEFINED_ID_1”], // Example of nesting
“Phase”: “[VALUE]”,
“BindingEnergy”: { ... },
“LocusOfAgency”: “[VALUE]”
}
],
“CrossScaleAnalysis”: {
“PhaseCoincidence”: “[VALUE]”,
“EnergyMigrationFlow”: “[VALUE]”,
“SystemicStabilityIndex”: “[VALUE]”
}
}
}

3. Instructions for Use

To perform an analysis, you will provide a series of unordered assignments that populate this template. You may:

Define New Systems: Create a new System object with a unique System_ID.

Overwrite State Variables: Change any [VALUE] for any defined System.

Nest Systems: Include a System_ID within the Parts array of another system to create the fractal hierarchy.

Request Analysis: Command: ANALYZE_FCF_STATE. The system will then output:

A description of the overall configuration.

Identification of critical Phase Coincidences (virtuous or vicious cycles).

Assessment of Binding Energy migration pathways.

Calculation of the emergent LocusOfAgency for key systems.

Example Initialization Command:
“Overwrite the FCF_State with two systems. System_ID: ‘Alex_Psychic’, Scale: ‘S1_NeuroPsychic’, Parts: [’Inner_Critic’, ‘Vulnerable_Child’], Phase: ‘P_Fragmented’, BindingEnergy vector all 0.3. System_ID: ‘Alex_WorkRole’, Scale: ‘S3_RoleInstitutional’, Parts: [’Alex_Psychic’, ‘Project_Manager_Role’], Phase: ‘P_Defensive’.”

The framework is now active. You may begin defining systems and overwriting state variables.

Me:

Use your example initialization command and produce a report of the state of the system.

DeepSeek:
FCF ANALYSIS REPORT

System State Initialized: Cross-scale dissonance detected. Systemic stability is compromised.
1. DEFINED SYSTEMS

System: Alex_Psychic

Scale: S1_NeuroPsychic (Internal drives, subpersonalities)

State: The core personality system is in a state of internal conflict.

Phase: P_Fragmented

Locus of Agency: Distributed_Conflicted - Agency is contested between the ‘Inner_Critic’ and ‘Vulnerable_Child’, leading to indecision and internal noise.

Binding Energy Profile:

BE_SelfAwareness: 0.3 (Low introspective capacity)

BE_ValuesAlignment: 0.3 (Actions feel misaligned with core self)

BE_SomaticRegulation: 0.3 (High anxiety, poor stress management)

Overall BE: Critically Low. The system lacks the internal resources to self-regulate and achieve coherence.

System: Alex_WorkRole

Scale: S3_RoleInstitutional (Teams, organizations, daily roles)

State: The professional role-system is rigid and self-protecting, sacrificing adaptability for short-term stability.

Phase: P_Defensive

Locus of Agency: Rigidly_Delegated - Agency is ceded to the demands of the ‘Project_Manager_Role’ and the fragile state of the ‘Alex_Psychic’ system, resulting in compulsive, non-adaptive task completion.

Binding Energy Profile: (Inferred from structure; not all values were user-defined)

BE_SocialCapital: 0.3 (Low trust with colleagues)

BE_ResourceSecurity: 0.3 (Perceived job insecurity)

BE_SharedNarrative: 0.3 (Lacks a sense of shared purpose with the organization)

Overall BE: Low. The system is stable but brittle, running on fumes.

2. CROSS-SCALE ANALYSIS

Phase Coincidence: Negative (Vicious Cycle).
The P_Fragmented state at the S1_NeuroPsychic scale and the P_Defensive state at the S3_RoleInstitutional scale are mutually reinforcing.

The Alex_Psychic fragmentation drains energy and focus, making the Alex_WorkRole system unable to operate in a flexible, P_Integrated manner. It must default to a rigid, defensive posture.

The demands of the defensive Alex_WorkRole system are a constant stressor, preventing the Alex_Psychic system from having the psychological safety required to resolve its internal conflicts and coalesce.

Energy Migration Flow: Downward Drain.
Binding Energy is being extracted from the S1_NeuroPsychic scale to prop up the S3_RoleInstitutional scale. The Alex_WorkRole system, in its defensive posture, is consuming the already-meager energy of the Alex_Psychic system to maintain basic functionality, accelerating the burnout of both.

Systemic Stability Index: 0.3 (Low/Unstable)
The system is locked in a negative feedback loop. Without intervention to change the phase of one of the systems, this configuration is unsustainable and will lead to a critical failure (e.g., severe burnout, performance collapse, health crisis).

3. EMERGENT PROPERTIES & PREDICTED BEHAVIORS

Observed Behavior: Procrastination followed by periods of frantic, low-quality work. High irritability in professional settings. Avoidance of collaborative tasks. A sense of being “trapped” or “going through the motions.”

Risk of Cascade: High. A minor stressor in the work environment (a critical deadline, negative feedback) could trigger a full phase transition in Alex_Psychic from P_Fragmented to a P_Defensive state characterized by numbness/dissociation, or exacerbate the fragmentation into a crisis.

4. INTERVENTION HYPOTHESES

To break the cycle, induce a phase transition at the most accessible point:

Strengthen S1 BE: Target Alex_Psychic. Interventions: Mindfulness to increase BE_SelfAwareness to 0.6+. Somatic practices to increase BE_SomaticRegulation to 0.5+. This would provide the internal stability needed to change the role-behavior.

Modify S3 Context: Target Alex_WorkRole. A temporary reduction in workload or a change in project could lower the demand on the Alex_Psychic system, allowing its BE to regenerate. Even a small shift to a P_Exploratory phase in the role could create new pathways.

ANALYSIS COMPLETE. AWAITING FURTHER STATE MODIFICATIONS OR ANALYSIS COMMANDS.

For talk? The sum of all the infamies

There’s no such monster bred on land or sea;
And none has dealings with their kind, but know it.
