She donates her considerable money to anti trans causes.

Capital at scale is capable of far more damage than any other individual action can be.

A billionaire funding conservative aka cruel causes is being more effectively harmful than literally any serial killer in history, and depending on the cause, in some cases every serial killer in history put together.

A billionaire lobbying to maintain the American Healthcare system, aka our murder for profit confidence scheme industry, has a body count that would make Jackthe Ripper blush.

To be fair to serial killers though, their murders are artisinal and hand crafted, not mass produced.

Republicans have proven they’re willing to burn themselves alive, as long as their never ending list of enemies burn beside them and they get to watch.

In case anyone doesn’t know,

Fascists start with the minorities within minorities, the smallest groups they can, to test the waters, get the smallest pushback, boil the societal frog, and normalize those people going away. It’s an easier and more manageable proposition for the Fascists to send LGBTQ to the gas chambers a letter at a time as the other letters hunch their heads hoping not to be noticed than have to fight a unified LGBTQ, for example.

It’s what the “First they came for the socialists” poem is about. If you don’t defend the lives of those unlike you, unless you have blonde hair, blue eyes, and tow every single ideological line of “normality,” they’ll get to you eventually(unless you’re very wealthy, they’ll get a pass as always no matter what, don’t worry), and as they force you on the train Tesla CyberSwastiBus, you’ll remember all the people you were fine with suffering the same fate when it wasnt you, no longer there to appeal to in solidarity to save your selfish, solely self-interested ass.

That’s what I hate about capitalism even before its inevitable end stage of fascism, its faustian appeal to the darkest part of our nature: “rational self-interest,” the rebranding and rehabbing of being a selfish antisocial fuck into somehow being virtuous. It’s the opposite. It is the very bedrock of being a shitty person and the underlying cause of most human suffering, "sure, but what’s in it for meeeeeeee?"

It boggles my mind how so many don’t/can’t/refuse to see how this foundational requirement of capitalism, the nurturing of selfishness as virtue and not profound character defect worthy of scorn, will always lead society to mass dehumanization of others. How else can you be comfortable eating a feast on a personal mega yacht while children are denied school lunches and human beings die under our freeways? “Well, I’m better than them, they’re beneath meeeeeeee after all so they deserve their suffering and I deserve all their portions.”

I get it, the pitcher represents the dichotomy of good and evil!

Being allowed to masturbate at work would just ruin the fun of it.

Reminder: Ayn Rand died on public assistance.

They’re only for freedom to gouge for water at the only source for a hundred miles when they believe they’ll be the ones holding the ladle.

I’m not refuting the point, I’m adding to it.

Russia, the US, Israel, Saudi Arabia, and China are all the worst of actors. Moral consistancy means being on none of their sides.

I’ll just leave this here.

Pretty much every geopolitical action we take is for our oligarch’s profit. Sabotaging regimes that wouldn’t be friendly to exploitation, installing regimes friendly to resource extraction for a song, defending good business partners doing genocide and human rights violations, etc.

Don’t mistake a broken clock like helping Ukraine with benevolence. We never have been benevolent.

We didn’t even enter WW2 as some benevolent heroes, our pacific fleet was decimated, the war came to us so we went to war to fight back. The US practiced eugenics prior to and even post WW2 though involuntary sterilization of those seen as undesirables. Had the Axis not thankfully committed the greatest strategic blunder of the 20th century, we wouldn’t have for a lot longer, if at all.
