By stripping those protections, the MAGA SCOTUS is dismantling the checks and balances it is supposed to uphold.
The carveout for the Federal Reserve only shows how grossly political this decision is. Apparently independence only matters when financial markets are at stake, but not when agencies are protecting consumers, workers, or the public from corporate abuse.
It is shocking, but sadly not surprising.
"What's the big deal about asexuality? No one is prejudiced against that."
What the fuck are you talking about, my friend? We live in a sex-obsessed patriarchal society where men are supposed to prove their worth through sexual control of women. You can easily see how someone on any side of that would be subjected to discrimination for non-participation.
Asexual people are not believed. Their experiences are minimized. They experience targeted forms of sexual abuse.
It's a big deal.
@phiofx @gerrymcgovern @jackofalltrades @jill_the_pill @FantasticalEconomics marketing and propaganda are twins. The vast majority of mass media advertising is manipulative enough to be considered coercive abuse.
It's also almost impossible to escape.
The most evil thing about it is that we're know on a third (or fourth?) generation of society where everyone thinks it's normal and good to soak in an environment where every second has at least one ad in your attention.
Good morning.
The Dutch police is now reporting parents who take their children to #climateCrisis demonstrations for child abuse.
It’s okay, just like all the overt racism, because we have cycle lanes. 👯♀️ 👯 👯♂️
