#marginalization
I'm talking about the collaboration of those who supported emancipation, supported enfranchisement, but only insofar as it maintained the marginalization of Black people. I'm talking about folks who were unhappy with slavery but fervently supported Jim Crow.

Likewise even engaging in using their signaling is itself a violation of trans rights. Legal freedom is insufficient to be freedom concretely. Marginalization is unfreedom and accepting “biological men” talk is marginalization. This libertarian concept of merely abstract freedom is worthless.

Do you have even a single marginalization?

This is not how we win. We can't criticize the anti-trans Dems and then disregard the marginalization of POC in the same breath.

Once society has let people have even a taste of rights, dignity, and equal treatment it’s very difficult to make them go back to marginalization. You basically have to be able to suppress them forever. And our current crop of fascists aren’t capable of that
That's not hyperbole. They dismantled the VRA, attempted to resegregate the armed forces, and lock in permanent authoritarian rule by a white business elite. And what happened? They lost their grip on the birthplace of that politics.

The people I have associated with over the last decade and change have always been interested in doing “real politics”, usually in the face of political marginalization. If all you encountered was the language scolds I think that speaks more to your own environment than anything else.

Shout out to Texas journalists, by the by. They've been in the shit trenches for decades. And they'll still be in the shit trenches, just perhaps cleaner shit trenches than before, for decades more. Because that's the job. There's never not injustice and inequality and marginalization to report on.

You can't just write off the people- the INDIVIDUAL PEOPLE AFFECTED BY MARGINALIZATION AND ASKING FOR RIGHTS just because you don't like the state's policy (ie. the way the state exerts power over them.)

there are people everywhere fighting for a better life who deserve it

Fuck any politician who advocates for any sort of marginalization of trans people or any other minority for that matter.

the marginalization/subjegation of people of color is acceptable collateral damage. a necessary evil that becomes background noise bc you can't be bothered to address it.

How bad are the Iran-backed Houthi militia! Totally unprovoked! Let's see the context:
2014: Houthis take Sanaa after years of marginalization of northern Yemen. A political crisis begins, not a war.

"Transitional homes" only work if affordable homes exist to transition into. Then you have to get past NIMBY'ism. It pushes the unhoused further away from services and opportunities and lacks direction at providing affordable single occupant dwellings. It is marginalization writ large.

*waits for white people to mobilize to put themselves between marginalized folks and the groups doing the marginalization*
I've been informed that federal election monitors are expected at three sites in Dallas County: a mosque in Richardson, a historically Black church, and a library in the epicenter of LGBTQ culture in Dallas.
If you're in Dallas and you witness a federal election monitor, contact me on Signal at stevanzetti.12

I would like to monitor the monitors

This marks a historic departure from recent trends where many Palestinian citizens abstained due to fears of marginalization.

Your Sunday Read: "Philosophy Herself"

Jana Bacevic explores Simone de Beauvoir's erasure, and "how the processes of creation, circulation and reproduction of value in knowledge produce both build on and generate inequalities."

Yeah, there's a lot of calculus being done around "how can we appease people who want a token marginalization while having the most heirarchy-conformant candidate possible."

I do work in the rural health space, and there is *ahem* pressure to make maps that emphasize the vastness of rural places- like a rhetorical sleight of hand.

Mind you, my family hails from the rural South, so I definitely see their political marginalization at the axis of race x rurality.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion? Oh yes, he very much got rid of it in favour of nepotism.

You're assuming the DEI is "bias towards <sombody>", but that is not what DEI is. DEI aims to get the best people for the job by eliminating hindrances like racism, nepotism, marginalization.

I don’t understand why I, as a trans person, am supposed to feel reassured that all these people would happily rhetorically sell out my rights for thirty pieces of silver and that they’re a treasonous liar happy to work towards my marginalization in word despite liking me. It’s rather disgusting.

Status threat, applied to POC.
Gender also plays a role. There's a reason why only white LGBT people & educated WW consistently vote Democratic. Other forms of marginalization WP can suffer don't move the political needle.

When it comes to Jewish people in Europe, for thousands of years, Jews were not allowed to do any other job except money lending. They were very specifically marginalized for being jewish, but they also profited from that marginalization. People will see that and think it's a good thing

Among studies that focused on gender directly, half addressed one of two topics about women’s marginalization, and most examined media, mainly through one-way media effects or content analysis.
