This speech had me in tears
I’m so fucking bored with all this shit
can’t we talk about reproductive justice on a GLOBAL scale
can’t we talk about the ways in which the Obama administration’s foreign policy initiatives ruin women’s lives everywhere
can’t we talk about the sexual violence that the U.S. government facilitates
what about the Border
what about feminicide
what about human trafficking
what about the neoimperial pillaging of women and children abroad
what about the military-industrial complex as a microcosm of rape culture
dead white euro-peon amerikkkan men making decisions about our bodies is all kinds of wrong, but I’m not about to sit back and cry over this fucking speech
there is more to life than Roe v. Wade
Yes, all of this.
Not sure why human trafficking is NEVER headlined. Zero focus.

The Obama administration’s assassination of two U.S. citizens in 2011, Anwar al-Awlaki and his 16-year-old Denver-born son Abdulrahman, is a central part of Jeremy Scahill’s new book, “Dirty Wars: The World Is a Battlefield.” The book is based on years of reporting on U.S. secret operations in Yemen, Somalia and Afghanistan. While the Obama administration has defended the killing of Anwar, it has never publicly explained why Abdulrahman was targeted in a separate drone strike two weeks later.

The Republicans’ attitudes towards Obama in general, and gun control in particular, remind me of a pre-nuptial agreement gone seriously wrong. They’re dealing with a partner they seriously do not trust. “We must stop Obama because he’s going to turn the country into a communist state and/or Nazi Germany,” they keep telling us. Which begs an important question: Why did 51% of America vote for a guy who wants to turn us into the USSR and Hitler’s Germany? Unless of course we’re in cahoots with him. And thus is born the 47% argument, though Romney was off by 4%. By their accounts, more than half the county is un-American (which by definition can’t be true).
This is, at its core, the gun nuts’ central tenet. Not that governments generically shouldn’t be trusted. But that our government in particular is evil and must be stopped at all costs. It’s philosophical terrorism that far too often leads to the real thing, whether it’s a shot-up movie theater by a guy dressed like Rambo, or a blown up federal building. It far too often comes down to the individual in question thinking they are the last defense against tyranny.
The problem we face as a nation is that the men who control today’s Republican party neither trust, nor particularly like, most of America, or Americans. If you truly see a commie and a Nazi around every corner, then you’re obviously not very thrilled with where you live.
The Republicans don’t have a problem with Obama, they have a problem with America.
"Inauguration protests - Washington D.C.
Top: Protesters outside the Presidential Inauguration demand “Money for Education, Not Drone Massacres,” January 21, 2013.
Bottom: Lupe Fiasco was dragged offstage at a pre-Inaugural concert January 20 when he refused to stop an anti-war song.
