    Tim Pool. Investigative journalism in Sweden after Trump allegations on immigration problems

    Long piece on Pool's baffling route to riches. It's an indictment of youtube's model as much as anything else. He used to wear a flak jacket in the vice news office and blames "everybody else" for his failure to find a woman to own...

    Feminism - where are the threads?

    I will read it, but that’s it’s abstract? Why is it so fucking hard to understand? Surely it’s abstract should summarise the main finding, or what it adds, in plain English.

    I wasn’t outraged- just observing it with different eyes. All I cared about when I was 8 was the gadgets and the chases.

    War on Woke: Conservative Cultural Campaigning

    ...new research and wrote half meaningful books, they might get more invites at Unis etc. But they can't do that because producing stuff of value will mean they will loose their audience by about 90%. So easier to man cry over feminism or something. The grift is paying mortgages for mansions...

    Feminism - where are the threads?

    How do you reconcile wanting equality for women in terms of pay etc with wanting men to provide for women and children?

    ...into any of those fronts when it comes to individuals beliefs and influences, eg religious or certain highly specific strands of radical feminism or other ideologies. And inevitably the combination of these different things leave this stuff meaning different things to different people, and...

    Is this woman a transphobe?

    Thats an interesting point there. I didn't live through the period myself, so I accept its quite possible I'm influenced by the people I see quoting some of these thinkers - not specifically in relation to trans issues but on more general questions of womens oppression.

    Census 2021

    You do realise most feminists and most trans people get on with one another right? It's just a tiny very vocal minority with a lot of money to throw around and/or time on their hands stirring shit. It's not being discussed the same way you ignore anyone having a tantrum for attention. Hope that...

    Census 2021

    :D I haven't found that any attempt to find compromises between feminism & transactivism has ever got anywhere constructive so I'm not sure that there's much point having the usual bunfight? I thought it was odd that, on a thread about the 2021 census, the result of a legal action brought...

    What DVD / Video did you watch last night? (pt3)

    Cate Blanchett is an accomplished and very attractive actress (many actresses are) but "phoarring" over her playing Phillis Schlafly in a series about second wave feminism, may just be missing the point.

    Feminism - where are the threads?

    ...out of a couple of gametes is preposterous, let alone unproven by just stating it. Have a read of that Top Girls paper I posted a few pages ago. There was indeed a subversion of feminism to serve the needs of capitalism, but I don’t know why you think it was feminists that did the subverting.

    Mary Wollstonecraft memorial statue provokes mixed reaction

    ...https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-54886813 A ten year campaign for "the mother of feminism" to be commemorated on Newington Green has now concluded. A lot of people seem to have strong feelings about the statue by Maggi Hambling though. I have to say, having contributed to the...

    Is this woman a transphobe?

    I wasn't clear, pre-pubescent children definitely have the option of not taking puberty blockers. My point was whether you pass or don't pass (which came out of the conversation about being "seen as" one sex or the other) is a lot to do with puberty for transwomen. Avoiding it makes passing much...
