#theocracy is coming
Text
Republican tyranny comes with a high price. Services to the elderly, the physically handicapped, and children were cut without warning. A right-wing group funded by oligarch backed Republican political foundations swept in without warning and launched a blitz campaign against books and woke agenda. They destroyed a county library system before anyone could mobilize against them.
Attacks on libraries and school boards are still ongoing everywhere. They have the backing of Republican think tanks funded by billionaires. Once the local MAGA agitators are fired up they descend on communities and often use threats and violence to get their way. Once they get a law is changed it’s almost impossible to restore equity.
Their stated written goal is total war against the US. They want to change everything they consider woke, helpful to the poor, elderly, and marginalized and “fill every position from dog catcher to president with a Republican.” This was the Bannon-Trump plan in 2016, it’s in Project 2025, and the Republican political foundations are all openly pressing for it.
The United States will be a literal theocratic dictatorship run by corporate oligarchs through fascist Republican tyrants. It’s not speculation or hysteria. It’s their literal plan written down and published for all to see.

We’ve rebranded ‘pro life’ to ‘anti choice’ to reflect their true beliefs but it’s not enough. I think we need to start calling a spade a spade and refer to them as the “forced birth movement” which is what the fuck they are.
#anti choice is so anemic#and while it does solve the “they aren’t actually pro life’ issue#it doesn’t effectively communicate the true horror of what they are doing#and I think moderate folks being swung that way by their communities would find it harder to get snowed#if we all reminded them they are actually team forced birth#cause while I know we know it’s terrible in terms of real praxis Lots of the individual forced birth supporters don’t think of it as forced#they genuinely believe they are ‘saving children’ and their genuine fear and (what is surely some form of) empathy is being weaponized by#a fascist theocracy for its own ends#to that end#I doubt they would be rushing to agree that they are on the side of forced birth#or better yet if we can help people realize what they are actually for is forced birth and not for helping anyone#then maybe people won’t be swayed to their side#I know this isn’t a political movement and as far as praxis goes it’s tiny#but the people i know who are anti choice don’t see themselves as forcing birth onto women#they don’t see that as the outcome cause they’ve been so trained by the ‘what about the children’ rhetoric#the evangelical Christian theocracy uses to vilify any group they want to turn their political mob against#so I think they maybe need reminding that the actual policy they are instituting is Fucking forced birth#i think it would at least capture some of the evangelical women I know who are by the skin of their teeth eking out a 1.75th wave feminist#ethic despite their parents being more conservative#the kids are coming to the side of progress - slowly slowly#so if we can get THEM to see#get THEM to realize they’ve been conned#that’s something#because those are votes we need

These Christo-fascist folks in power taking away our rights and gradually sending us back centuries towards a darker era really don't seem to remember what people used to do when they were upset with their leaders back then, do they?

website users who are like “his [redacted] materials is about gender but i dont like how theyre trying to add feminism to it in the show” are so funny. the original series isnt feminist at all its actually pretty sexist n gender essentialist (and classist racist and other shit) so what ur saying is that you’d prefer if it kept the 90s YA novel sexism instead of a bunch of writers working with what they have to make it marginally better and watchable

Many things can be true at once.
Israel is an apartheid state that unjustly occupies Palestinian land.
Israel is a Jewish state.
Jews worldwide do not bear the responsibility of the Israeli army or government.
The American government backs Israel, largely because of the efforts of evangelical Christian lobbyists. Wether or not Jewish Americans want this is irrelevant to the USA military.
The American government is rooted in white supremacy and antisemitism, and is constantly verging on Christian theocracy.
Criticism of Israel, while necessary, can very easily be co-opted into antisemitism. It needs to be handled carefully.
We can expect both antisemitic and Islamophobic hate crimes to spike in the coming weeks.
Jews and Muslims are not enemies. We have to remember that and stand up for each other.

I like Catherine Lacey’s Biography of X so far and I think it’s one of more realistic “second American Civil War” type books…what’s driving me a bit crazy is that I can tell Lacey has some Southern snobbery lol. Also not surprised to learn that she’s from Mississippi and only has lived in NY…and seems to just assume all of the North is NY…
I would go “maybe it’s just the character” but the main character is a New Yorker and idk man, there’s no way a New Yorker is this much an apologist for the South especially in an alternative timeline where the South wins a second war/successfully secedes and turns the South into a violent theocracy

Also I think Gerry being an Irishman in the 80s does affect his decision to live in Australia. Yes, he was in love with Carla and that's why he wanted to follow her, but also I think a lot of people do not understand this is Ireland pre Celtic tiger era. This is not a man ready to string his beloved back to the old country, even for a holiday. It's an impoverished heavily Catholic country that of course a bisexual hedonist probably doesn't want to stay in.

“You dont want kids? I said the same thing at your age. You’ll realize later.”
“You’re trans? You’re too young to know that. You’ll grow out of it.”
“You’re an atheist? You don’t actually disbelieve, you’re just mad at god. One day, every knee will bow and every tongue will confess.”
“You’re a leftist? You’ll become more conservative eventually; every generation does when they come into contact with The Real World™️”
“You’re gay/ace/queer? You just havent met the right man/woman yet.”
If you say any of the above things give me your personal information so i can harm you
edit: the terfs found this post. Y’all fuckin KNOW a teenager saying “give me your personal information” is a joke. You’re literally just being vindictive to have something to say.
anywaysy crazy how u guys r aligning with people who like theocracy and homophobia and heteronormity just because you hate trans people. It’s almost like you, my fellow hoes, are really damn predictable.
Edit 2: i love how after that first edit terfs mysteriously stopped interacting

Project 25. The Heritage Foundation.
It's behind every single anti-lgbt law pushed the last year. They are why Roe v Wade was overturned. They are successful, well funded, and a massive threat.
What you can do is educate yourself and others about it. Get to know your enemy. Protest. Wear pride pins. Put out your flags. Show solidarity. We are ALL under attack by this white supremacist christo-fascist group.
Remember when 2020 had kpop stans organizing on twitter and gen z using tik tok to make Trump meets flop while white vets made themselves frontline walls at BLM protests that were organized to handle shit like kettling thanks to their amazing black organizers? Remember how people actually Showed up to those protests for awhile?
We need that cross-generational Fuck The System energy again. Not just for a summer this time. This needs to go passed the election.
They're playing a long game and so do we.
Get inspired.

Their goals include saving the children and traditional family, and "to lay the groundwork for a White House more friendly to the right."
This translates to destroying the EPA, disability rights, and criminalizing being LGBT. Also to overthrow the US government, as stated in their manifesto.
They want to replace our democracy with a theocracy. No Republican in office was elected without their approval.
They're the kind of right that makes being LGBT punishable by death. That makes it a crime just to exist where others can see you. They want librarians who work in libraries that make LGBT books accessible to be registered sex offenders. They want you prosecuted and even specify that no mercy should be shown to people the "left" likes (ex: immigrants, black people, etc)
That's the extreme right who's been manipulating our laws.
And they plan to make things a lot worse within the first 180 days a Republican is elected president.

If you don't have plans coming up.... Start organizing them. We will be okay if we work together.
We will be okay if we work together.
If we have each other, we'll be okay. We have to rely on each other. You have to be reliable. You, person reading this, have to show up. That's how this works.
I have your back if you have mine. Do not leave me to the wolves and I won't leave you.

patryarchy:the ultimate theocracy
You make blackout poetry from your lord’s tongue.
When the waters rise you won’t be saved but left to run.
Al-Hawwiyah is waiting for those who are on the Foodchain’s top.
For we know the sin of forcing others to be like you will not stop.
Iblis and Satan pulled puppet strings to cause faith to be a battle ground.
Revolution, community strikes, singing like in a chorus, devout.
Hijabs and long skirts: symbols show that girls are being controlled.
Cutting one’s hair on the other hand: a statement, bold.
Don’t believe the purity culture of which you are told.
For that will only end with regret for when you are old.
Assuming that hell’s agents of so-called morality,
Or a botched D.I.Y abortion doesn’t end you early.
But do not worry, for this strife, Azreal will cut their souls out with a knife.
And jerk it out with such ferocity, that evil will depart from its dignity.
Metaphorical gold, cuffs their wrists as they promote patriarchy,
And no matter how much you try, they will deny the key.
Evangelicals pretend to fall then cry out oppression.
I doubt that they will ever learn their lesson.
We didn’t ask for their crosses, their stars or crescents,
And yet there are those who are to choke on these regardless.
The religion itself is not to blame,
It doesn’t matter the one you are about to name.
For the issue is that these women weren’t given the right to choose.
And now they are corpses, beaten black and blue.
Separation between church and state is a lie,
Get away with anything in the states with Andrew.25
In Islam, to the same effect, the Quran will work just fine.
And they will not see that they have long crossed this line.
Both countries are theocracies, the very same
Except only one has the guts, the sheer audacity
to acknowledge this fact by name.
