Socrates said that the state paying teachers would just incentivise teachers to teach in line with the values of the leaders. I work within education, and he was right, there is enormous pressure to do so.
The same applies to the media.
Fucking idiots polio is gonna come back.
"Polio killed my children... and evil FEMINISTS did it."
I wish I was joking because I knew this would never happen.
A pandemic of thermonuclear climate change.
I'm not convinced that this will eliminate the homophobic state government in states which vote for Republicans.

Hi, I have a penis. I have observed (autistic superpower: bottom-up perception) male fragility in psychological state more than that of women. "Sometimes people have fragile psychological states and react in ways I find annoying," is generally true, but it is more often true for men.
It might also be that women tend more to internalise slights because they are socialised to be passive. This would result in men being more responsive when they are slighted by, for example, period products being free "because what about men?!?!" Ignoring the fact condoms are given away for free, and are health products that are useful for men (as well as women).
I am a Psychologist. They gain status from being assholes, because enough people privilege assholes with status. Authoritarianism requires an outgroup to oppress, and people think that hostility and oppression is 'strength'. The original theory (which is not entirely supported by evidence) of the Authoritarian Personality is based on Freud, and it says that a similar family dynamic of a powerful father who arbitrarily abuses and oppresses others is the basis.
I don’t know how, or if it’s even possible, to get back to the days when lying assholes got treated as lying assholes.
We need to send the assholes to space, where they can go fuck up some other planet.
(Yes, I know what happened to the Golgafrinchans when they sent all the middlemen - or the 'useless population' - in to space).
...dragging the Overton window further right.
I'm sure rich people giggle in glee at having two right-wing parties as the only possible options that will both promise to cut taxes for businesses and force poor people into wage slavery.
Pussies produce life, he just produces shit.
I fear that cops ARE tools of oppression.
The frog that is in this picture is the subject of the picture, which is why it is a picture of a frog.
