Or just doesn't fucking update... ever.
Unless otherwise indicated, I own nothing posted. If you want to know the provenance of an unscourced post please ask, but you're as likely to know where it came from as I am.
If you recognize anything of yours here and you wish it removed, feel free to communicate that to me.
1. Marx and Engels were EXTREME sh*tlords so if you read or promote ANYTHING they’ve written you are contributing to everything problematic they did in their lives.
2. Most ‘critiques’ of capitalism are written in a way most lower class people as well as PoC can’t understand.
3. Most lower class people and PoC don’t have time to just ‘sit down and read a book’ so encouraging them to read when they can’t is literally shaming them.
4. Whenever you say 'capitalism is bad’ you are also de facto shaming working class people since all of them HAVE to work or else they starve, and if they think the companies they work for and shop at like Walmart and McDonalds are 'bad’ companies they will only feel shamed even more. Like WTF white marxists?
5. Advocating global communism is LITERALLY an act of colonialism. The Ummah was capitalist for most of our existence and since we had the best moral code we never had any crises or 'contradictions’ until white mayo showed up and colonized us. Telling the whole world it should be communist IS FUCKING COLONIAL.
6. You are denying workers their agency when you say capitalism shouldn’t exist. A LOT of workers like working for wages so you’re not only shaming them but forcing them under your power by telling them they’re wrong for thinking like this.
White marxists need to check their privileges and start decolonizing their minds NOW.
a movie like my fair lady but where a frat boy is turned into a feminist
omg
SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY
Starring Channing Tatum. It’s still a musical and he dances.
Viola Davis as Henrietta Higgins
She’s his gender studies professor. This was the last GE that he could take; if he doesn’t pass this class he loses his lacrosse scholarship.
after the Big Academic Conference (where he presents his term paper and discusses feminist issues with a bunch of academics and everyone is amazed at him), they argue. he’s become what she wanted him to be but his life is ruined, he can never fully enjoy the things he used to or talk to his friends in the same way. he’s become a feminist but he can never really be a frat boy again.
OMG it totally works…
He ends up as her grad student.
Why do Tumblr and Twitter have better movie ideas than 99% of Hollywood. /rhetorical
You’ve never experienced sarcasm and rebellion against the System like Hawkeye and Trapper and BJ’s sarcasm and rebellion against the System.
Do yourselves a favour and go watch this show
Omg MASH! I loved this show! Definitely worth a revival.
Oh now you’re talking bout m-m-m-m-m-my generation, one of my primal first loves, the voice of my childhood, morality + bitter disappointment and also half-drunk wit. I loved MASH so much I used to tape episodes - KIDS! FEEL ME! - in the days before VHS by holding a tape recorder up to the tv speaker. There are still entire MASH monologues I can do by heart: “But I will NOT carry a gun!”
no this is absolutely worthy of a rewatch. I was a kid when this was in syndication and I think i will Get It even better now.
