OK, I got CL’ed.

OK, first let me be super-clear, I hate the Daily Fail. I hate that it’s a tabloid. I hate it.

That said, they (and the Associated Press) are the only organizations bringing this to light right now. And y’all may remember that here in AZ, a court ruled that the Mormon church could not be held accountable for the continued rape of two children, even if the local leaders and the attorneys in Salt Lake City knew, because of the state’s clergy exemption. Oh, and there’s a Republican in our legislature (Catholic, to be clear) who is blocking legislation that would remove the clergy exemption for reporting child abuse. (Personally, I’d like to stake this guy, naked and coated in honey, on top of a fire ant mound, so he can kind of get the feeling that the children experienced being raped by their father. Yeah, I’m *pissed off*.)

So, with that out of the way, the Daily Fail published another article today about how there was a coverup of the abuse two women experienced as children, and their leaders knew about it.

A few months before her 18th birthday, Katie Wallace hatched a plan to overdose on heroin.

She and a male friend who had her hooked on the drug would do it together, ending years of misery to which the 17-year-old saw no way out.

It was not the path the Mormon church, in which Katie had been raised, had ordained for her.

But it was one that she holds the religion responsible for, after church leaders allegedly covered up years of rampant sexual abuse and incest within her family.

For Katie, now 39, it began when she was four. Unbeknown to her, her abuser, a close relative, had assaulted her older sister, Becky, years before.

The church knew but did nothing, allowing a ‘vicious circle’ of abuse to break out within the family, the sisters claim.

They have bravely shared their story with dailymail.com to expose what they believe is an ‘epidemic’ of sexual abuse in Mormon homes, which they and countless other victims claim is buried by ecclesiastical leaders in a bid to protect the church’s reputation.

It comes after our investigation revealed last week that the church is facing legal action over allegations it has ‘maintained a pattern and practice’ of hiding abuse from authorities.

More than a dozen current and former members of the church have come forward with shocking claims of a culture of ‘cover ups’ - defying leaders who are alleged to have ‘silenced’ and ‘threatened’ those who speak out.

More at the link: dailymail.co.uk

I *hate* that the Daily Mail is doing this. Hate it. But if it gets help for survivors, I’m ok with that.

This is the same thinking that made people refuse to let Jews escape the Nazis to come to America. Does she really think Christians shouting glossolalia and handling snakes are less weird? Does she really think MAGA rioters storming state capitals because they had to mask up during a pandemic are rational? Does she really think Velveeta cheese is the height of cuisine? Does she really think Trump and his divorces and cheating are wholesome family dynamics?

I really wish some people would realize that familiar doesn’t mean default humanity..

It’s all well and good to have differing views on stuff that doesn’t matter; healthy, even, to challenge each other, to keep your minds healthy, to periodically re-evaluate your opinions. “Should gay people be allowed to exist” is not “stuff that doesn’t matter.”

Political conservatism is at this point just open calls for policy to enforce a culture of domination and cruelty.

And it’s an own-goal—for awhile there was a coded language about fiscal policy that made then sound less like Gilded Era eugenicists—but they just love the shameless sadism of dudes like Limbaugh too much not to adopt that communication style.

Conservatives will acknowledge that most of their politics is cultural, that their objective are state enforcement of their norms on the bodies of others, but they’re also believers that they’re entitled to this and thus don’t understand…or don’t want to understand…why this would make them not-likeable.

It doesn’t matter to the cishet neurotypical white guys who talk like this. To them, it’s all hypothetical. Their marriages aren’t on the line. Their relatives aren’t being attacked for who they look like or shot by police for walking the wrong way. Their kids aren’t being banned from normal school activities. Their religion isn’t being degraded by their kids’ teachers.

So if you don’t experience that reality and can’t muster any empathy, it probably seems easy to date someone who holds a repugnant ideology.

My ex-wife was a rather conservative Tory, but that had nothing to do with our breakup: in fact, I rather enjoyed our political discussions, we disgreed on a number of principles but lived in the same reality.

That was not the case with my most recent (ex) GF who went down the rabbit hole of conspiracy theories and came to believe and espouse that January 6 was a false flag, that Biden stole the election and to top it all, that the man in the White House is not even Joe BIden but a body double.

When I asked her if he was a Lizardoid Alien she replied “no comment”. That was when I decided to cut my losses, pack up and leave. Have not seen her since.

Look at it from their perspective.
Everyone used to be fine with wives being subservient to their husbands, with women having fewer rights in our society, and our traditions like sending kids into coal mines to dig out the smaller seams. Liberals divided us by tearing our society away from our cherished traditions.

re: #27 Wendell Zurkowitz ((slave to the waffle light))

As someone who’s been making social connections in a blood red state, in a community of petit bourgeois conservatives, I really think the thing that’s changed it that you can’t abstract conservatism anymore.

Material conditions have changed in ways that demonstrate that conservative fiscal policy cannot be pried away from their social policy: that shit didn’t work, and conservatives still won’t acknowledge that but are now open about whipping the poor to extract value from them. Furthermore, a bunch of Cold War hawk shit has been contextualized by…people having access to more information about the specifics of how that actually “worked”…a constant string of confident predictions that created large body counts and didn’t deliver the goods but did produce a lot of shady characters that in turn created new crises and body counts.

Social conservatism is viscerally consistent in what it wants, but it’s positions benefited from the way that their targets could be turned into just-so-stories, folklore that explains the world: that abortion-seekers are loose women, that foreigners are Communists, etc are all easier heuristics to float when those people can’t speak for themselves through worldwide reporting or social media. Fox News plows the rut it does precisely because it was necessary to create a permanent interpretative frame that makes conservatism Utilitarian But Also Divinely Right—and that’s super effective—but over time it’s revealed the artifice of how conservative consensus is created, and that most of the actors in creating that frame are cynics and bullshitters.

Like…we have fascists now because fascists spring up as an explanation for why capital…and those that serve capital…can’t have been wrong, can’t have done policy that made most people’s life worse. To deny the obvious state-facilitated redistribution to the wealthy, you have to invent an occulted redistribution by a malefic and alien Them. But you can see the intermediate step of this process…the ur-fascist experiments with speaking into being a successful American fascism in the churches and AM radio stations of the last three decades: the whole time they had power and their shit didn’t work, conservatives were building that manifold of blame and othering.

(The War on Terror was a catalyst that made this process speed up, because it integrated into day to day conservative discourse imagery plucked from high conspiracism—The Protocols, the Red Scare—but the process had already started with Gringrich-ian framing of politics and the AM-pundit fostering of sadism as virtue)

More and more I interact with two kinds of conservative social expression: those that have dived into the contradictions and embraced Trumpism, and those that keep up a constant disavowal—they aren’t *that* kind of conservative, unreasonable people have mysterious obtained power. The former I’ve just had to eject from my life—you just can’t talk to them without the conversation bending towards their entitlement and the inferiority of others—but the latter are just fucking sad-and-exhausting because they’ve just disassociated…they believe the same things, vote the same interests, and refuse to engage with the possibility that the present is informed by the past.

I gave up trying to communicate with a gay conservative buddy from college. He was ranting about covid maskingbeing for “scared bunnies” the last time we corresponded.

This was after his husband had been in a near-fatal car crash that required him being put on a respirator (which might not have been available if fewer peope had been masking), not even mentioning that his party of choice would not have let them marry in the first place, which meant he would not have been allowed to visit his husband in the ICU ward…

Fascism is like the fire you set to hide the robbery you just did: the intent is hide the robbery and make it safer to do future robberies. It doesn’t do anything policy-wise that conservatism isn’t willing to do, it obeys the same key premise of hierarchy and state enforcement of distinction, it’s just accelerationist in how those goals are achieved.

It’s not “the plan,” it’s a tool being used to keep the ongoing project of (1) using state power to redistribute wealth in exclusionary ways, (2) creating explanations for this system that preclude the perpetrators from culpability.

The hope at every step is that actual fascism doesn’t get power—fascists kill people that could otherwise be valuable, and they take a big cut of what’s extracted from the subject population—but that you can play with the politics of radical exclusion to keep the rake-in going.

Imagine fascism as something stored away in glass-fronted, wall mounted box labelled “break in case of contradictions becoming too visible.”

‘Get a job!’ Newsmax pundit bursts into laughter at ‘reparations’

HINT—it’s the same liar who the New Republic(an) gave endless space to in 1994 to tank Hillary’s health care proposal

rawstory.com

Newsmax contributor Betsy McCaughey urged people who believe in discussing reparations for slavery to “get a job.”

On Sunday, Newsmax host Lidia Curanaj asked McCaughey about Rep. Jamaal Bowman’s (D-NY) call for greater dialog on reparations.

“I mean, all they care about is giving away our money,” Curanaj scoffed.

“It was a long time ago,” McCaughey agreed. “We’re sorry if you’re still worried about it. Go get a job.”

“Leave our money alone,” Curanaj added.

“We’ve got a lot of job openings in America,” McCaughey concluded.

re: #67 FormerDirtDart 🍕🐀 No Capt’n 😷 Trips

Sounds like electrical arcing prior to the fireball, but not after, to me

It arcs, causes a ground fault, overheats the coolant, which is oil. That boils over and the arc ignites it. There’s a famous video of a substation near a golf course that this happened to. That was burnt to the ground, and, I think, so will this one.

Since when does the US Navy use the term “Arabian Gulf?”

Since around 1991, apparently.

en.m.wikipedia.org

“Since about 1991, due to increased cooperation with Arab states of the Persian Gulf, various branches of the United States armed forces have issued directives to their members to use ‘Arabian Gulf’ when operating in the area to follow local conventions (‘Persian Gulf’ is still used in official publications and websites. The practice of the United States Fifth Fleet, based in Bahrain, is to use ‘Arabian Gulf’.”

She won’t sell them. Most, she gives away as gifts, on the condition that they be used and seen rather than being in a closet or drawer.

Every few weeks she’ll put a different one on our bed.

The one in the photo is a king size, which is difficult to photograph.

If she wants to give that one away, I want first dibs and, trust me, we will use it on our king size bed.

Yeah, I could tell wingnuts would be upset. I did think it was a bit heavy-handed, though. They could have used that actress without making her transness the defining feature of her character. She was great in Heartstopper, so you know she has range. I thought it was a bit of a missed opportunity.

Still happy to see Donna Doctor back, though!

Oh? I hadn’t heard they were having conniptions. Good. I still have to watch it but have heard enough to have a few guesses why. But The Doctor is like Trek in that it’s always been that way even if they try to ignore it.

Fairly relaxing TG weekend. Had a good dinner at home on Thursday, then a fairly easy drive up to the Russian River Friday, slept in our house for the first time…was a little chilly but we bought a heat-dish which helped and picked up a rolling radiator on Saturday at the Habitat for Humanity thrift store…crab feed went off well…nine crabs for eight people - had about three or four halves left at the end for the host to use for crab omeletes in the morning. We chose to get an early start and beat Golden Gate traffic - got home in 122 minutes - 98.5 miles driveway to driveway.

Also, Milo figured out how to look out the window without standing on his toes.

Not bad, I’m not using the string cheese anymore for the edges because it doesn’t melt like it used to. It does make a neat crust wrapped cheese log that was crying for a garlic butter dip.
