There's been a whitewash in the media over the past couple days over what the U.S.'s role in the world is, and the fact that they kill hundreds of thousands of people per year to protect profit. Now how can I get to the point where I could be saying that on the world stage, and interrupt the lies that CBS, CNN, NBC, and everyone is saying? In my view, that [would be] by keeping the cover. Not because I think by looking at the cover you get all of this message that I'm telling you, but as a way to have a platform to interrupt the stream of lies that are being told right now.

This is almost becoming my pet project, but I think a lot of it can be attributed to a sort of fundamental irrationality in "the algorithm" that is self-reinforcing. Especially since this trend came from Tik Tok, which has refined its algorithm to a T.
Like at some point an algorithm saw that people stayed .05 seconds longer on Tik Toks with "POV" in the title, and they started pushing those videos to peoples pages. And then some people saw that videos with POV in the title get 20% more views and start putting POV in all their titles no matter the relevance, and the algorithm picks that up, etc etc.

he ran the light to escape an altercation between two homeless men that had escalated into gunfire at the intersection of Central and Alvarado Drive.
After the collision occurred, the shooting victim approached," Ortiz writes. "The victim informed the Chief that he was okay and had not been shot. Chief Medina asked the victim to remain at the scene, but the victim refused and fled southbound on Alvarado. Another citizen approached the Chief and reported having seen individuals leaving a black truck and fleeing away from the scene. Chief clarified with the witness that no one was outstanding. It is important to note that these interactions were not recorded
A shooting? At this time of day, between two homeless people, directly next to a busy street?
Uhh, yes?
May I see evidence?
No
And so, what he did today, I think, also was something he does every day and our officers do every day, which is he is out on the front line. He is doing what he can to make our city safe. And this is actually him on a Saturday morning — Disrupting an altercation, a shooting. Trying to do what's right. Trying to make sure that folks are OK after on scene. This is above and beyond what you expect from a chief.

I'm looking for a website to host a spreadsheet for book recommendations. Ideally something where I could add people as approved editors but is good for privacy (so no Google). Any good options out there?
I was looking into visiting Cuba in 2024 but there seems to be a lot of conflicting information. Does anybody have good resources on how best to visit without being put onto a watch list or whatever?

So [@Lilith](/u/Lilith) recently had a [good shitpost](https://hexbear.net/post/198172) on the emotional stunting men experience under the patriarchy. Most days I would laugh and scroll on by, but today I really felt it and wanted to perhaps start a discussion. As a straight, cis male who has recently started seeing someone, I have noticed a lot of the emotions seemingly ingrained by the patriarchy popping back up in recent days. I have felt possessiveness, jealousy, and fears of inadequacy (am I really good enough, or MAN enough, to be with this person?) It seems like the patriarchy effects all men differently. I personally found it much easier to get over the immediate instinct towards rage rather than sadness or other emotions, but the feelings stated above have stuck with me despite my best efforts. Some things I have wondered about when pondering this topic: - Can these deep seated feelings, whether they be rage or jealousy or anything else, ever go away entirely with effort? Is the best we can do to suppress them? If we do suppress them, is that not further playing into the patriarchal push to suppress emotions? Is this a contradiction that can only be solved with the liquidation of the patriarchy? - How can men, while still working through these emotions, still be the best possible allies to women and enby folks? - In a similar vein, what can we do as men to hold other men accountable for these attitudes? Obviously we can call out blatant misogyny, but more deep seated attitudes can be harder to detect. Some things I've found that have helped and continue to help me deal with these deep seated attitudes: - Listen to women! This one is pretty obvious so I won't spend much time on it, but your female comrades will know better than you when you're doing harmful shit. - Read feminist theory. I'm currently reading *Revolting Prostitutes* and it's helping me to get over some attitudes towards sex work that I now realize were fairly reactionary. Theory works, and it's always helpful to have a better understanding of the world - Organize organize organize. Theory is useless without organization and vice versa. You will 1000% learn more about overcoming these attitudes through direct work with female comrades and within orgs working towards women's liberation than you will anywhere else.
