Also the patriarchy is involved, but my comment was already long enough. (And I didnt mention how nobody seems to talk about the victims in any of this).
@Soyweiser Years ago (before Epstein, before the GFC, etc) I used to jokingly talk about my pet conspiracy theory, that the world was ruled by the P7: the Pale Patriarchal Plutocratic Protestant Penis-People of Power.
Turns out I was right.
I didn't want to be right …
It is not a bad insight, as if you have some of the Ps there is still a place for you in the hierarchy which keeps more people invested in propping it up. (And ideas flow from the bottom to the top as well, as the current genocidal transphobia was much more a Pale Patriarchal thing (the neonazi far right) and the people in power just latched onto that, and added their Ps to it cause it helped them.
And yeah, you have been very tragically blessed with the power of foresight. I recall reading your blog posts a long time ago and thinking you were overreacting a bit. I was wrong.
What did you do to piss off Apollo?
