In World War II, Nazi Germany established brothels in the concentration camps (Lagerbordell, Sonderbauten or Freudenabteilungen "Joy Divisions") to increase productivity among male inmates.
In the end, the camp brothels did not produce any noticeable increase in the prisoners' productivity levels, but instead, created a market for coupons among the camp VIPs.
Here's a few of the locations where this happened:
Mauthausen/Gusen, Auschwitz, Buchenwald, Neuengamme, Dachau, Dora-Mittelbau, Sachsenhausen, Flossenbürg and others
The women forced into these brothels came mainly from the women-only Ravensbrück concentration camp, except for Auschwitz, which "employed" its own prisoners.
In combination with the German military brothels in World War II, it is estimated that at least 34,140 female inmates were forced into sexual slavery during the Third Reich.
The brothels form the subject of "Das KZ Bordell" (The Concentration Camp Brothel) by Robert Sommer, a book that has been hailed as the first comprehensive account of a little known chapter of Nazi oppression in World War Two.
It explores the origins, structure and impact of the "Sonderbauten" (special buildings) run by Heinrich Himmler's SS in Germany and Nazi-occupied Europe.
"In the collective memory and written history of World War Two, the camp brothels were for a long time taboo," the 35-year-old Berliner told Reuters. "The former prisoners didn't want to talk about it: it was a difficult subject to handle."
"It didn't fit so easily into the postwar image of the concentration camps as monuments to suffering."
According to concentration camp survivors the women in those brothels were replaced every 6 months and the women who got replaced were killed in gas chambers.
It is important to note that we distinctively speak of sexual slavery here and of rape.
I wanted to point this out especially because I have been seeing liberal feminists talking about this topic, calling it "forced sex-work", "forced sex-labour" etc.
It is beyond disrespectful to call these female victims "sex-workers" or "employees" when their sexuality was brutally exploited, their diginities taken, their health was sacrificed, they were raped repeatedly and then executed after 6 months, even though they were promised to be released after those months. But those promises of course were never honored.
Liberal feminism and radical feminism differs a lot when it comes to views on the topic of prostitution but this does NOT excuse labeling victims of abuse and rape as "sex-workers" or calling their suffering "forced sex-labour."

The trans community is unhealthily obsessed with JK Rowling, comparing a woman whose opinion on the trans stems from radical feminism, a woman who is very loud when it comes to women's rights to H¡tler, a fascist nazi man, responsible for killing millions of innocent people...Your misogyny is very clear and loud.
You are all vile and beyond disgusting.

While reading "caliban and the witch" and "women as wombs" I was struck by the realization of how similar Mechanical Philosopy's and christian ideas during the industrial revolution sound to today's transhumanism-queer theory-trans activism-liberal feminism (and the rest of Donna Harraway's fandom) . I also draw the parallel between the two historical periods - intense evolution of technology and society.
Here's the table of these similarities. Any thoughts? 🙏

my friend events this week:
I reached out to an old high school friend after 12 years of not speaking, only to find that she's in Greece doing a phd on psychiatric euthanasia. I confessed to being ignorant about the topic, so she emailed me 19 research papers and said "this will be a good start"
I asked another friend to provide a professional reference for me as part of a grant application. she agreed to, on the condition that I log into neopets, collect the daily free item, and transfer it to her account

Women were never created from men's ribs, not ever. It is HE who emerges from HER womb. Framing the father as the life giver is a patriarchal lie, it's not true.

I am once again thinking about digging holes
Tumblr media
It's so fucked up that digging a bunch of holes works so well at reversing desertification
Tumblr media
I hate that so much discourse into fighting climate change is talking about bioenginerring a special kind of seaweed that removes microplastics or whatever other venture-capital-viable startup idea when we have known for forever about shit like digging crescent shaped holes to catch rainwater and turning barren land hospitable

One of the things that makes arguing with men so much more draining than arguing with women is the unequal distribution of credibility and contribution.
Somehow, whenever I argue with men, it always falls upon me to both prove my own claims, and to disprove his, while he does neither; his only obligation seemingly to dole out whatever ungrounded assertions he conjures up on the spot. Somehow, it is always wordlessly established that anything I say is false until proven true, while anything he says is true until proven false.
This same dynamic happened again over on tiktok, when a man claimed women are just as violent as men. Automatically, almost as if by muscle memory, I offered up the usual statistics on male depravity: men constituting 99% of rapists, 99% of mass shooters, 98% of killers, 95% of serious domestic abusers. And his only response was to say those statistics were wrong. No elaboration; wrong simply because he said so.
I already knew how the entire conversation would pan out: I’d give him my source, he’d find a reason to discredit the source, then I’d scour the internet to find a source that suited his standards, which he’d inevitably find a reason to discredit too.
So instead I simply said, “Prove the statistics are wrong.” And that was the only thing I responded with henceforth: prove it, prove I’m wrong, prove you’re right. Thus reversing the dynamics and positing that anything I said was true unless he demonstrated otherwise; unduly putting all the onus on him while I did nothing other than decide whether he was convincing me of claims thoroughly enough—and if he wasn’t, it just meant I was winning, of course.
He blocked me, and so far so have all the other men I’ve used this approach on. I don’t know whether it’s because they couldn’t actually disprove my claims or because they couldn’t stand to be treated the same way they treat women in debates. But I think more women should do this. Stop wasting energy proving your points to men, and start making them prove theirs to you.

It’s funny how only women who defend other women are told that they can’t speak for all women.
A woman who critizes anything about the headscarf must be a racist bigot. A women who points out how prostitution harms prostitutes is a “swerf” and “whorephobic”. A woman who encourages girls and women to feel confident without make-up is met with “Uhm, actually, some women like make-up”.
The reverse never applies. If a woman brags about how much money she makes with her Only Fans account, nobody tells her to stop encouraging girls to share explicit pictures of themselves, because some of them might want to enter a prestigious career when they are older, where these pictures could become a liability.
When a woman talks about how much she loves make-up nobody shuts her up with an “Uhm, actually, make-up is expensive! Not all women can afford make-up, you capitalist bourgeois pig!” Or “Uhm, actually, some women are sick or disabled! They don’t have the energy or motor skills to apply make-up, you ableist monster! Have you ever thought about women with ALLERGIES, huh?” Or “Uhm, actually, some women have to care for babies. Do you know how hard that is? Are you aware that babies cry at night? Why do you force young mothers to waste time on covering their faces with coloured paste, when they barely get enough sleep? Do you know that sleep deprivation is torture? Why do you hate mothers so much, you horrible MEMA (= mother excluding make-up apologist)?”
Sounds extreme, but pro-women statements are regularly met with this kind of spite, exaggerations, accusations and intellectual dishonesty.

Weird question but did anyone have the formative experience of your brother MASTURBATING in the same room you that you are?
(For context, we were on vacation and had to share a room. Idk if he thought I was asleep or what but I could hear him going at it.)
