  6. It occurred to me today that boycotting individuals or even companies due to a stance they have is a form of privilege.

    "Don't {read books|listen to music by|watch films} by [name] because they support [position]." works for many people, but it doesn't work if you're really a persecuted minority.

    Imagine being gay in the 1950s in the US and saying you won't consume media or buy from a store if the owner is anti-LGBT, you'd have very little you could eat or buy.

    The fact is that this is the position that many of us still face today, and while each of us will draw the line differently, we mustn't forget that being able to do so is an expression of our power and privilege.

  10. This is story about White Mediocrity, how Privilege places the worst people at the top and how it degrades us all trying to soothe the raging egos of depraved middle aged men who want teenagers to suck their dicks.

    That's all there is to these men, there's no politics really, just spite and rape. And women support these men, fuck knows why, but they do.

  15. 1/3 In an extract from her foreword to David Graeber’s new collection, The Ultimate Hidden Truth of the World, Rebecca Solnit writes that Graeber:

    ‘wanted to put [ideas] in everyone’s hands … Which is part of why he worked hard at – and succeeded in – writing in a style that … was always as clear and accessible as possible, given the material. Egalitarianism is a prose style, too. … A sentence Lyndsey Stonebridge wrote about Hannah Arendt could apply equally well to him: “To fixate on her exceptional mind is to miss something that is important about her lessons in thinking: thinking is ordinary, she teaches; that is its secret power.”

    theguardian.com/books/2024/nov

    Yet isn’t this itself an example of not thinking, and instead of merely going along with received knowledge?

  20. I'm watching a TV series on Netflix about a #research study on the effect of #nutrition (vegan or healthy omnivore) on body and mind. As a scientist, I was intrigued by the enrollment of twins to control for the #genes.
    To my surprise, chef Daniel Humm described his decision to transform his iconic restaurant into a #vegan one and how controversial that was.

    I had the #priviledge to eat at his restaurant before and after. #kudos to him for that bold decision. I had two amazing experiences.
