  • Democracy is a lie. It cannot work under conservatism. It does not work within a capitalist economy. It does not work in a vertical hierarchy. People do not function as people in a vertical hierarchy. Of course Brexit failed, just like the British Empire, and just like every single political entity ever has and will fail. Even if they seem to succeed for a while, they will always fail, and they will always fail humanity.

    Our socioeconomic structures are not so different from any other animal’s. Though the answer is right there in front of us, our emotionally manipulated, fearful existences have trapped us in these ridiculous concepts and arguments.

    If we want people to be human and not scared and trapped animals, we have to take away the thing that keeps us animalistic, which is the need to lean on something “greater” than ourselves.

    All we currently seem to be are clusters of endless daddy issues; religion, nationalism, success, wealth, value: hierarchies of daddy issues.










  • I agree that my tone was off, and for that I apologise. I assumed a bad faith argument based on what feels like an endless string of self-proclaimed men’s rights warriors, brought up with a warped sense of equality, people who can’t seem to wrap their heads around the collosal gap in the size of the problem that women face and try to equivocate to distract from that, so they can “have their say”. Your initial comment still reeks of that type of mentality however I look at it. The problem the article points to is overwhelmingly more important for women’s health, according to rainn.org 90% of reported rape cases are against women. Saying “what about men!” every time rape is mentioned without acknowledging this gap seems disingenuous. I will also add this edit to my initial comment. I hope this logic may help you understand why what you said was perceived as problematic.
