Fuckin floored by the fact that there are third-worldist leftists on Twitter who are genuinely really well read and have amazing politics, are communists/anticapitalist, oppose the nation-state apparatus, etc. etc. but then are pro criminalization of sex work? Like... What don't you understand. I think third worldist critiques of modern sex-worker advocacy have a lot of merit! Namely that the claim that the majority of sex work is consensual is primarily true only in the global north, and even then it is heavily coercive for sexually exploited groups like twoc. However, the question of whether or not sex work is consensual or coercive isn't the question at all. The question is "do you think the state has the best interests of the marginalized, including sex workers and the trafficked, at heart?". The answer for that is no. Multiple people I've met who work in fighting sex trafficking have repeatedly stated that explicit legal punishments for sex trafficking are almost exclusively used as a means of control and punishment internally AGAINST sex workers, and almost never actually help anyone who is being trafficked. Even the ones who are freed from sex trafficking often end up in prison or held by immigration until they're deported.

Like, decrim is IMO the only approach you can support if you're anti-state. Regardless of whatever your thoughts on sex work, there isn't any benefit to be gained through criminalization. If you are genuinely concerned for the well being of the trafficked or socially coerced sex workers, the best thing you can do is decriminalize it so they can pursue support, and to offer your material support to your local sex workers. It's not complicated!

#dnt rbg #also if any westerner esp a white person comes in arguing that this is whorephobic #keep in mind i and many of my loved ones are part of the affected populations #who ARE socially coerxed into covert and overt sex work #and take a moment to recognize that if sex work is genuinely something u consent to and want to do then nothing ive said contradicts that #or denies you that option

Ruth Bader Ginsburg, you fought long and hard for us.

I hope we'll make you proud.

Rest in power.

thinking about when I was reading tone indicator discourse for fun and I found one person saying “I prefer emojis to tone indicators, they’re easier for me to interpret” and I found an entirely different unrelated person saying “I can’t BELIEVE anyone would suggest EMOJIS as tone indicators??? they’re FACES everyone knows we (autistic people) can’t read FACES”

Liberal icon Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg died Friday night at the age of 87, and her death will spark a political battle over whether President Trump and the Republican-controlled Senate will name her replacement.

A conservative replacement for Ginsburg will shift the court further to the right for generations. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has said the Senate would move to confirm a replacement, even though it refused to consider then-President Barack Obama’s nominee to fill the seat of Justice Antonin Scalia, who died in 2016.

Nina Totenberg, NPR’s Supreme Court correspondent and a longtime friend of Ginsburg’s, reported that the justice in recent days dictated a statement to her granddaughter Clara Spera: “My most fervent wish is that I will not be replaced until a new president is installed.”

Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Supreme Court justice and legal pioneer for gender equality, dies at 87

Ginsburg had resisted overtures that she retire when Obama was still president, and had hoped to continue to serve until the age of 90. But she was diagnosed with a return of cancer earlier this years, and the Supreme Court said she died of complications of metastatic pancreas cancer.

Ginsburg was appointed to the Supreme Court by President Bill Clinton in 1993, and was the second woman appointed to the court.

“Our Nation has lost a jurist of historic stature,” said Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. “We at the Supreme Court have lost a cherished colleague. Today we mourn, but with confidence that future generations will remember Ruth Bader Ginsburg as we knew her — a tireless and resolute champion of justice.”

In July, announcing her latest bout with cancer, Ginsburg said: “I have often said I would remain a member of the court as long as I can do the job full steam, I remain fully able to do that.”

She had surgery for lung cancer and radiation treatment for pancreatic cancer in recent years. She had also been diagnosed with early-stage pancreatic cancer in 2009 and treatment for colon cancer a decade earlier.

She was the senior justice among the court’s four liberals. It has five conservatives, two of whom — Justice Neil M. Gorsuch and Brett M. Kavanaugh — were named by Trump. Chief Justice Roberts is now at the center of the court, and played the pivotal role this term as the court confronted controversial issues such as abortion, and Trump’s financial records.
