GingerAntics I feel like this was saying what I‘ve been saying ever since people started shouting and whining about cancel culture. Before the internet, if you offended people, those people stopped talking to you and stopped including you. It‘s literally the same thing. This is nothing new. Stop whining and maybe reflect on why people don‘t want anything to do with you online. 2d

Probably overreaching,but I am on track with several of the buddyreads. I go back to work 8/24 which obviously will hugely impact my reading time.

Okay, so I just checked the schedule and realised I was WAY ahead. I have no idea where I got so off. Where is everyone in the book? I‘m so sorry if I got everyone confused as all get out… I am equally confused because I‘m not sure how we got here, tbh.

GingerAntics @TheBookHippie lol I have no clue how I got so far off… then again, two weeks ago I started listening to the audiobook while I was donating plasma and next thing I knew, I was at the conclusion, so maybe I listened too far a couple times? (edited) 1w

kspenmoll Will get back to you! 1w

GingerAntics @kspenmoll at least I‘m not the only one confused. Sorry guys. 1w

GingerAntics I feel like I‘ve gotten WAY mixed up. This wasn‘t even supposed to so up until 27 July. I‘m starting to get REALLY confused. 1w

GingerAntics This chapter has just confirmed for me that we need to stop believing white men - the richer, the less creditable… also, himpathy is my new favourite word!!! 1mo

TheBookHippie @GingerAntics I feel himpathy is a. brilliant word …… ALSO white men- They know they cannot be in power unless they take everyone else‘s power away. So that‘s their daily task. 1mo

GingerAntics @TheBookHippie right?! And they assume everyone else is going to treat them as crappy as they‘ve treated everyone else all this time. It‘s a confession. They know how crappy they‘ve been. 1mo

I am so sorry. It‘s been a crazy weekend.
Do all lives matter?

GingerAntics In reality, yes. Socially, no. It‘s why we have to say “Black Lives Matter” in the first place! 1mo

TheBookHippie Right?!?!?! the “not all men” makes me vomit. Yes. Men. Most of them. Almost all. So sit down. 1mo

Eggbeater All lives aren't currently being treated by society as though they matter. But if you're a rich, white billionaire with a penis, you just hit the jackpot. 1mo

TheBookHippie @Eggbeater 💯💯💯💯💯 1mo

Deblovestoread @Eggbeater Got it in one 🎯 1mo

Amiable All lives should matter. But they don‘t. Which is why Black Lives Matter! 1mo

lil1inblue @Eggbeater 🎯🎯🎯 1mo

lil1inblue @TheBookHippie I'm so sick of not all men, too. I just say, "It's all men until it's no men." 1mo

TheBookHippie @lil1inblue 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 1mo

GingerAntics @TheBookHippie EXACTLY!!! Stop acting like you‘re being attacked and claiming it‘s not you, and tell a man who IS doing this crap to stop. Then we can talk. 1mo

GingerAntics @Eggbeater 🎯🎯🎯 spot on! 1mo

GingerAntics @lil1inblue 1000% yes 1mo

GingerAntics @Amiable EXACTLY!!! If Black Lives Matter or “this guy assaulted me” offends you, then maybe you should ask yourself why instead of acting like you‘re somehow offended. You‘re not offended, you‘re pissed that someone is daring to question your authority as a white person or as a man. 1mo

TheBookHippie @GingerAntics yes this. 1mo

AnnCrystal All Lives Do Matter! Indigenous Americans highlights “All Children Matter.“

I believe that schools need to begin teaching lessons on empathy, and the necessity of being humane. 1mo

GingerAntics @AnnCrystal I totally agree! I would love to see that happen. 1mo

GingerAntics @lil1inblue @TheBookHippie Knitting Cult Lady told a story about this time she was in a local community group online, and this woman was asking for help moving because her husband was abusive and she wanted to get her and the kids out… not a single man volunteered. When asked why, every one of them said “he might hurt me.” Bro, you‘re afraid? What do you think she is? Only the women would help her. 1mo

GingerAntics @lil1inblue @TheBookHippie these are the same people who say “why didn‘t she just leave if she was so afraid of him?” 🙄 until men start calling out other men‘s behaviour, until men by default believe women when they say they‘ve been abused, until men show up for women, don‘t come at me with “not all men.” 1mo

lil1inblue @GingerAntics 🎯 🎯 🎯“Until men start calling out other men's behaviour“ 🙌 1mo

lil1inblue I guess along the same lines, it's also Black Lives Matter until all lives matter! 1mo

Origins of Totalitarianism | Hannah Arendt

Just finished viewing this mesmerizing PBS documentary- if you have access to PBS it‘s well-worth viewing! Parallels to our existing executive branch are glaring. #adventuresinphilosophy

TheBookHippie, GingerAntics, ravenlee, Bookwomble

Tamra Thanks for posting! Off to find it. 1mo

squirrelbrain I just finished this book, in which Arendt is featured. Not sure I understood a lot of it, but still worth a read.
