I think it is more accurate to say PATRIARCHY is making them vulnerable to radicalization. Patriarchy is turning near-universal experiences like loneliness, poverty & mental health struggles into points of radicalization for young men. You need to be really explicit about the culprit here.

Disability isn’t a vacation.
It isn’t fun. It isn’t easy. It isn’t something people do for the “perks”.
It’s a 24/7 job.
It’s managing doctors, wrangling medications & fighting with insurance.
It’s coping with ableism & abandonment.
It’s doing all of that while in legislated poverty.

You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.

Trump is holding an entire nation hostage. But, somehow, the rest of the world continues on. The markets chug along. Congress continues to be in recess, with dissent confined largely to social media. It is hard not to feel like we have failed some critical test of the bounds of our own humanity.

People keep saying “oh so you want OPEN BORDERS” as some kind of gotcha and like. Yeah. When I was a kid you could just drive into Canada. On accident, even. It was great, and I think we should do that instead of kidnapping children. Normalize being normal instead of being kidnapping weirdos

The ability to buy anything on account of having too much money wrecks a person's brain just like a zero-gravity environment destroys muscle mass and bone density.

This technology doesn't spring out of a hole in the ground. It's built on unsustainable resource extraction and the burning of fossil fuels, and used for monocropping. Farmland needs to be protected, and farm workers need dignity and collective ownership. Corporate tech is not going to get us that
We cannot have a rational debate about technology.
As long as we rely on screens rather than on forests and sunsets to soothe our pain, we will fight to defend the screens, not the forests.
