Politics, to me, is about issues of customs and behaviors, like “women don’t drink beer” or “men fix things and women wash dishes.”

You are debating between “ethical genocide” vs. “simple genocide.”

Damn you Yakub…

    the customs you associate with political discourse is symptomatic of the deep rooted patriarchy within western society

    capital creates divide in order to oppress people into subjugated labourers that debate eachother on things like ‘gender norms’ and ‘race’

    these issues are manufactured for complacency and distraction, dont let them win

      I know, that’s why I’m a hypocrite. I know all of that. I have a degree in History from one of the best universities in Latin America, I’ve read Marx, Bourdieu, Fisher, Bloch, etc… But I keep pretending I don’t, and honestly, it’s become automatic.

      But it’s like fighting a ghost, a ghost that shapes and controls you from the moment you were born. People better than me stick to a fair fight. I’m tired.

    Vera no offense but this just means youre really dumb about politics…

    In no country is women drinking wine vs beer a political issue

    (though yeah women shouldnt drink beer) (men shouldnt either but i hold women to a higher standard)

      Jokes on you, thats a very important agenda in Brazil countryside kaakkaka

      Moral questions are the most important in topic Brazil. This is an election year, and the topics are moral.

      Literally, the election is between the son of the guy who killed 700,000 people in the pandemic vs the current President.

      And the topic is whether honor killings are legitimate or not, and whether we should wear short clothes or not.
