  • i think the star wars fandom is a great case study of how right poppulism works.

    star wars fans have always been hating on new stuff and in many cases the negative feelings are semi justified (looking at the prequels, clone wars, christmas special, …)

    but blaming capitalism is complicated, and while the quality of star wars media hasnt changed much, it now has a diverse cast and scapegoating already unliked minorities is easy.

    “get rid of the foreigners, get rid of jewish people, get rid of the queers, get rid of women and it will fix everything”




  • i think the idea here is, that bottoming is like helping someone (the top) out and more selfless. you arent doing it because it feels good, but because someone else wants to penetrate something.

    i think this is an interesting idea. it seems very patriarchical. seeing bottoms (traditionally women) as passive, submisse sex object, that dont need to enjoy it. its all about the dominant tops (traditionally men).

    i think some parallels can be drawn from this incorrect image, to how healers are seen by those they heal
