Misogyny is a religion. Religion isn’t just myths and worship, it’s also social orders and value systems.

OccultIconoclast@reddthat.comto Science Memes@mander.xyz•Transitioning in STEMEnglish222·6 months agoI’m female presenting. I’ve known people who thought I was a cis woman for months, and I don’t keep being nonbinary or trans a secret.
When I read actual cis women’s accounts of misogyny, and also trans women’s accounts, I can’t relate. I don’t get shut down the same way. Somehow, despite others perceiving me as female, I kept the tiny part of gender presentation that tells people to sit down and shut up when I’m talking as if I were a man. I don’t understand what it is, but I still have it the same as before I transitioned.
I would love to know what it is so I can share it, but I can’t tell why people respect me as much as they would respect a man. It’s bewildering.

Actually, the Democrats deliberately run a weak campaign while Russian botfarms tell the left not to vote for the Democrats. And that’s how movement to the left is prevented.

I’ve met lots of people who thought communism was the USSR, and that’s why they were opposed to it. That’s bad. We should fix it.
You’re not too bright, are you?
Humanity having enough power that their mistakes can destroy the world isn’t normal. Our failure tolerances were calibrated in a world where the damage we did to nature was temporary. That’s not true anymore; we either get our act together now or go extinct.

OccultIconoclast@reddthat.comto Greentext@sh.itjust.works•Anon finally finds a girlfriendEnglish111·6 months agoThe third rule of tulpamancy is that the word “tulpa” is culturally appropriated - the modern use of the word has very little in common with the Buddhist tradition, especially in why it’s done and what sorts of system members are created. The new, culturally sensitive word is parogen. It means “intentionally created”.
Further terminology:
Endogenic system - a head with multiple people in it that was created by its own actions
Traumagenic system - a head with multiple people in it that was created by trauma. Often DID or OSDD
Headmate - someone who lives in the same head as you
Introject - a headmate whose identity is based on an external source such as a character
Fictive - a headmate based on a fictional character. May or may not believe they’re truly the same person as in the media, for any philosophical opinion on what “the same person” means.

I think the world was created by people, who told each other stories until their stories formed a world, and then the people lived in the world. They invented the idea of humanity by which to know themselves, and that’s where human beings come from.
Driving a car is a sin, and the gods will punish all of us for your hubris. They’ll send droughts, famines, floods, fires, and hurricanes to smite us all because you drove a car.
