taking care of your family, be they children or elderly, healthy or infirm, is #labor. household work like cooking, cleaning, gardening, painting, shopping, healing, mentoring, parenting, decorating, repairs ―all labor.

you have never been paid for all your labor. if you’re a woman, doubly so.

this is why the #feminism of ex-CIA operative and former Henry Kissinger lover, Gloria Steinem, is bullshit.

they never fought for #UBI.

USA’s minimum wage should be $35/hr.

"If I had dropped out of college, thrown away my education, depended on my parents through the pregnancy, birth, and infancy, till I could get some kind of work and gain some kind of independence for myself and the child, if I had done all that, which is what the anti- #abortion people want me to have done, I would have borne a child for them, for the anti-abortion people, the authorities, the theorists, the fundamentalists; I would have borne a child for them, their child.

"But I would not have borne my own first child, or second child, or third child. My children. . . . my children Elisabeth, Caroline, Theodore, my joy, my pride, my loves. If I had not broken the law and aborted that life nobody wanted, they would have been aborted by a cruel, bigoted, and senseless law. They would never have been born. This thought I cannot bear. I beg you to see what it is that we must save, and not to let the bigots and misogynists take it away from us again. Save what we won: our children. You who are young, before it’s too late, save your children."

Hallo Zusammen, ich bin #neuhier
Ich mache #politischeskabarett - mittlerweile muss man dazu sagen: ich mache linkes politisches Kabarett. Das ist im Rahmen der Zeitenwende etwas aus der Mode gekommen, aber wichtiger denn je. Im Jahr 2023 habe ich dafür noch den Deutschen Kleinkunstpreis erhalten - das würde jetzt wohl nicht mehr passieren 😉

New translation up on @igd_news:

"This is a Network of feminist and transfeminist organizations that inhabit Abya Yala with diversity and the challenge of articulating our multiple perspectives. Here we converge as collectives, organizations, and projects from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Guatemala, Mexico, and Venezuela, where we come weaving with needle and thread the questions that keep our trajectories and journeys in motion, with practices that arise from the discomfort with punitive Patriarchal Justice and the network of violences it brings together: the appropriation and exploitation of bodies, territories, and knowledges in order to generate privileges and the accumulation of wealth."

"... feminism isn’t reserved for the privileged or the palatable. It’s not just for white women in boardrooms. It’s about equity for everyone. And to suggest that a phrase rooted in Black and queer vernacular is “anti-feminist” is to reveal a narrow and (frankly problematic) understanding of what feminism is and who it’s for."
