Political Memes

Yeah, this isn't so much about men/women, as it is about money. Like there was a story on here recently about the connection to Ariane Rothschild, and how she basically introduced him to all the power people / helped establish his honey trap -- story claimed her name showed up like 12k times in the files, but little/nothing's happened. Her name is basically verboten in all media.... because she's stupid rich. And Ghislaine is currently alive in a min security prison, with a dog -- while Epstein was killed. So, like in terms of the 'main people' perpetrating the crime, the guy in the couple got killed, the woman got a dog.

At least the rich men are getting named and semi shamed, like Gates needing to eat crow for fuckin on the island and passing an STD to his then wife.

Once again, Lemmy proving that tunnel vision and framing Every.Single.Issue through class struggle exclusively betrays a fundamental sense of empathy and understanding of any other topic whatsoever

I get it. You guys are experts on leninist theory. There are other issues happening concurrently. We can work to solve class inequality without dismissing the struggle of women or those faced by minorities. The two are not mutually exclusive.

Tin hat on: I am starting to think this dismissive strategy is intentional. There feels like an undercurrent of self sabotage intended to dilute the efforts of building a movement around class consciousness by deliberately undermining others struggles. The intended goal of this self sabotage is to never have to address concrete issues. It seems that as long as we remain in the realm of the abstract, we can keep the discourse aloof and disconnected from the real effects of what si happening through action. I can't prove this of course. The more likely reality is Lemmy is overwhelmingly men, and men in tech. Their frame of reference is... Not the greatest when it comes gender issues

The only person serving time for a global conspiracy to rape children is a woman.

She's a terrible woman who deserves it, but it's still telling.

Even the fact that the only associate behind bars is a woman should tell you something

There are high society women involved with Epstein too and none of them have been held accountable. In fact the only woman to receive a punishment just got moved to a min security prison and was given a puppy. Stop using heinous shit to push your agenda

There's proof Matt Gaetz paid a teenager for sex, and literally nothing was done.

The Metoo movement didn't even scratch the surface. Every single grown women I have had the privilege to talk to has been sexually assaulted in their lifetime. My wife, my mother, and now my daughters.

The backlash from the Metoo movement has been insane. Cops, prosecutors, and judges have ensured that there will be no justice. The President is a damn child rapist for Christ's sake. We are absolutely fucked when it comes to gender inequality.

Still waiting for the Equal Rights Amendment to be ratified.

It’s crazy how accountability seems to depend on who you are, not what you did.

It's always enlightening to see every time a post about sexism make the front page of Lemmy how many people in the comments argue that sexism isn't an actual problem.

my personal lifehack is posting my own nudes publicly on mastodon so there's nothing to leak 😎

I'm tired boss

Yup, post is 100% correct, gender inequality is all around us. It's even in the thread with us right now.

Do not paint the whole world with an American brush.

America allows criminals to exist and abuse the world so long as they have money. Why do you think the worst kinds of people go to the United States in order to get rich?
