Pseudo NymDiscussing with friends if things get better when Boomers die off and pass control to <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/GenX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GenX</a> and <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/millennials" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#millennials</a>.We can hope. But I kind of thought that about the young boomers and hippies, a more liberal view. I'm coming to think it's not generational age, it is the cause/effect feedback loop between money and power. They generate each other in a positive feedback loop, and correlate with entitled, selfish behavior. They self select for that quality, so you get pools of rich, powerful assholes

William Lindsey :toad:It's everywhere in the dismantling of reproductive rights for women, especially in the Dobbs ruling.We've just seen in the Hegseth hearing all over again how willing many US white Christians are to excuse and explain away sexual abuse including rape, when the person committing it is a white heterosexual man — and a Republican.

William Lindsey :toad:In every way possible, many churches now advertise themselves as privileged boys' clubs for heterosexual males. They promote a theology which claims that males, heterosexual ones, are at the pinnacle of creation and have been placed there by God to rule and govern, and to subjugate women. This theology instructs women to obey and submit.<a href="https://toad.social/tags/churches" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#churches</a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/GenZ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GenZ</a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/millennials" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#millennials</a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/gender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gender</a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/MaleEntitlement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MaleEntitlement</a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/MaleDomination" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MaleDomination</a> /3

William Lindsey :toad:"For the first time in modern U.S. history, men are just as likely to be religious as women.
