“Tuberculosis is so often, and in so many ways, a disease of vicious cycles: It's an illness of #poverty that worsens poverty. It's an illness that worsens other illnesses from #HIV to #diabetes. It's an illness of weak #healthcare systems that weakens healthcare systems. It's an illness of malnutrition that worsens malnutrition. And it's an illness of the stigmatized that worsens #stigmatization. In the face of all this, it's easy to despair.” (p. 159)

@Huntn00 @josephcox Again: The problem are #people, not #guns.

• The only reason in the Post-#Luty & Post-#FGC9 era why you don't see everyone and their grandma armed [in #Europe] is not #legislation, but the fact that we don't have a #ViolenceCulture here.

I mean, #JStark built the FGC-9 in #Germany with 0 controlled parts so it's safe to assume it isn't #technology that stops people, but the lack of motivation, desire or need.

• The problem in the case of #DeepFake-based #pr0n is #sexism and prudishness!

The solution is #accountability & #consequences for tze perpertrators and an end of #VictimBlaming and #stigmatization!

#CommonThread of #vulnerability , #victimization & #stigmatization run through #disability & #CasteBased #discrimination that makes out a #StrongCase for #intersectional & #interrelational #engagement with both these forms of discriminations. Viewing these two types of discriminations through #DistinctAxis provides for #empathy & #comradery for #concerns of one another.

Any #attraction a cis man feels to me, a trans woman, is framed as a character flaw and a red flag. That attraction is #pathologized and #stigmatized even by my own "#allies" and "fellow" #queer and #trans people. 2/3

I genuinely don't know which I find more frustrating, the way I'm treated as a #trans woman for being #attracted to any cis man, or the way any cis man is treated for being attracted to me. 1/3
