#obedience

Cultivating hatred against vulnerable minority groups is a strategy to distract us from accelerating plunder & the catastrophes unfolding in its wake. This strategy has a long history. Because it works. Don’t fall for it. We are in this together. #hatred #obedience #distraction https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/jul/25/berlin-pride-march-called-off-after-car-crashes-into-crowd-of-people-near-route?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other

The ‘screen for T’ initiative makes perfect sense as part of a broader strategic policy of policing gender. Goes like this: define gender as binary & the extremes of its cultural expression as natural; assume a hierarchy in which men are superior to women; normalise institutional cultures in which the highest status is accorded to those who most clearly embody attributes coded as male. These framings offer a pathway for men whose life prospects have been destroyed by the accelerating plunder & obscene enrichment of the oligarchs to direct their anger toward any ‘other’ who is not like them (except their wealthy heroes of course) & find status based on their obedient manifestation of exaggerated masculinity. Join the army. Be a man. Any man no matter how exploited can know himself to be better than a woman. Men’s status is supported by the progressive disenfranchisement of women - we are denied autonomy over our own bodies, lose access to means of making a living independently of men, eventually lose the right to vote (see Margaret Atwood for details). This is a long term plan. Boys and men are valued as cannon fodder. Girls & women exist to provide service. Its success rests on keeping us distracted with clickbait media and shiny toys & eroding our collective ability to understand history, see patterns & think critically about them. Is no surprise that the disciplines that teach these skills have been progressively defunded over decades. This is white supremacist christian patriarchy in action. Crises are an opportunity. Colonialism is the business model. Plunder & exploitation are the means, profit & power are the goals.
