Extreme brahminical patriarchy is displayed in this old photo, reflecting how Hindus have prevented women from equal rights. The man here is standing while restricting his partner to sitting. Can't a woman stand on her own? Hence proved, we've to dismantle brahminical patriarchy.
While above photo is from Telugu Brahmins. The next is from Kerala.

This time the Brahmin man was happily sitting while forcing women and girls to stand? Can't Brahmins let women sit? How long should this toxic patriarchy allowed?

I'm not against brahmins. I am Oxfrd liberal Dr. Trust me when I say Brahminical patriarchy is bad.

Look at this brahminical photo from 1930s. Do you see the subconscious message?

The photo says that women need to be protected. They have to sit within boundary of men. Cntd... Colorised photo of Brahmin family from 1930. Source: 9gag.co

I'm not A huge fan if Humanity at times. Nothing is ever good enough for them, they fall for all kinds of traps & distractions, they're bullies & they refuse to see what has all been done for them.
MOST, they're cruel heartless individuals that think they're better than the ones
They are standing next too ..

Any shinny new toy/person that is placed in front of them, they flock to like rats in A cage to A slice of cheese, once they get to the cheese - The cheese is pulled away from them.. What do they do, look for the next piece of cheese.
While searching for all the pieces of cheese that they will find that will be taken away, the ones they choose to support are the ones placing the cheese & taking it away - Supporting the very ones keeping them in chains.

So not a lot of people know that @Soundsaboutleft has a bit of a past. He got stuck in traffic one day and went a little...let's just say good thing he was able to use his "album privilegium."

Hint: Album is latin for white.

Anyway. Here's his #FallingDown day. #LeftRight
I mean a lot of people want to make a mountain out of a molehill for all he did. I mean all he did was...have an argument over geographical access, food costs, fencing, food prep, etc.

I mean...who doesn't hate paying a bunch of money on drinks?

I will say he had a point that the advertising for fast food is nowhere near the reality. They do all kinds of tricks and shenanigans to make 3 cents of beef look like a meal fit for a king in a commercial.

The reality is always...disappointing. Especially when delivered.

One cannot look past out most esteemed writers and thinkers and think they all missed the mark,

Freedom of expression - even distasteful - is a right,

Censorship -not our goal 1/2

Artists and Writers Warn of an ‘Intolerant Climate.’ Reaction Is Swift. nytimes.com/2020/07/07/art…
The constitution - which the "Right" would think (at times correctly) the left sees as permeable -- has things that are NOT NEGOTIABLE.

The Bill of Rights.

This includes distasteful and even racist speech.

I have long agreed hate crimes legislation is damaging to our side.2/4
All crimes are hate crimes.

When we legislate thought - or ideas -- we are well on our way to an Orwellian nightmare.

The conversation is vital -to Justice - Civil Liberties and figuring out how to #SMASH institutional and structural racism in this county.

It wont be 3/4

On this first morning of #PrideMonth it may be especially relevant to remember riots are what got us here and even more relevant that it was on the backs of transwomen and people of color. pictured below Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera (and not the riot)
All Queers and allies should know Christopher Street Liberation Day, aka Stonewall Riots, aka Stonewall Uprising. #Smash #PrideMonth
All queers and allies should know Marsh P Johnson. She threw the first brick. literally. #BlackLivesMatter #TransLivesMatter #PrideMonth
