Here at AMS Centraal, we are suckers for #deathmetal from #mexico It's therefore with great excitement we went to see #castleumbra and #reverencetoparoxysm last Friday. The gig was as good as we had imagined and we have some footage to prove it. #hacavitz and #demonized next? One can hope. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zw8o4Wi6sA&list=PLmn2ED1LqEvDsKmXBQnYsKeypcBJQiSd7

A quintessential #Trump move. Wait for someone else to absorb all the #risk of pulverizing the already #demonized victim into a severely weakened condition, swoop in with a low-risk but high-impact strike, with no coherent #strategy other than creating a distracting #spectacle. #US #Iran

[Long Read] Whoโ€™s Afraid of #JudithButler?
The #philosopher and #gender #theorist has been #denounced, #demonized, even #burnedineffigy. They have a #theory about that.

For their latest work, Butler became a #student again, wading into a #world #ruled by enveloping #dread. โ€œI just tried to go deeper into that place of enormous #stuckness and #rage,โ€ they said.

I didnโ€™t understand #Holocaust #denial until #Oct7. My #survivor grandmother feared that no one would believe her. Now I know why. https://forward.com/opinion/574713/holocaust-denial-belief-oct-7-hamas-israel/ Throughout history, we #Jews have been #ghettoized, #demonized, and told we are vermin in the same breath that we clandestinely run society. We have survived not because we have convinced any others of our worth, but rather thanks to our values. Like the Holocaust survivors, we will continue to survive, each and every day.
I didn't understand Holocaust denial until Oct. 7

No proof of Jewish suffering will ever be enough to quash denial  โ€” so perhaps, itโ€™s time we stop trying to explain ourselves.

Iโ€™m not okay. Iโ€™m livid.

Itโ€™s okay to not be okay. Iโ€™m most certainly struggling. I will continue to struggle until yโ€™all start being better allies and #trans people stop being #demonized by #hate. I will not be okay until trans people stop being murdered for who they are.

Donโ€™t you fucking dare tell me to stop talking about #TransExistence when weโ€™re dying because society has normalized #ChristoFascism
