From Chicago. Live in LA. 22. Studying art. |
maybe i’m a goddamn bleeding heart hippie liberal but i’m totally down with paying an extra .50 cents for a thing of fries if the person who makes me those fries doesn’t have to work 3 jobs just to survive.
most studies show that prices would only have to go up by 1 to 3 cents in order to raise employee wages significantly
or, you know, the ceo’s could take pay cuts but that would be so hard for the poor multimillionaires

So in New Hampshire, the annual Pumpkinfest was interrupted with bloody riots and…well…twitter answered the call.
This is my home town. It never fucking ends in Keene. I have so much to say about it. But to clear things up, the rioting was not AT pumpkin fest. The rioting was started by a massive college party at off campus housing. Swat teams contained it to that area and Pumpkin Fest, which is an annual family friendly event, went on as usual. Pumpkin fest was an excuse for the college kids to party, but was not the cause or location of the riot.
There was tear gas, rubber bullets, the tank (that was mocked by john oliver) was brought out, and police are being called in from VT, MA, and major cities in NH to help control it.
Some party-goers got violent and destructive and then got violent against police and medical personnel who were trying to help the injured. This turned into the riot where they were setting fires and flipping cars. The entitled shitheads are treating it like a joke, and, lbr, of course they are. I bet most of these kids were raised to laugh at authority. I bet their parents bailed them out their whole lives. They have NOTHING to fear. They’re taking selfies in front of the swat teams. It’s white privilege at it’s finest. And it will inevitably be covered that way by the media.I’m glad black twitter took notice. It’s weird that I was blocks away from this but that the Pumpkin Fest was completely unphased. It was only at night when I went back to my car and had to drive through herds of college students taking up the side street who could’ve decided to fuck with me at any given time that it was real to me.
Keene has become an incredibly bizarre place to live with domestic terrorism/gang behavior which is basically ignored by police because the people doing this are rich and white. It’s not just college riots. Look into Free Keene and their bullshit. There’s too much to unpack to even begin to make people understand what’s going on here.
It’s been hashtagged “pumpkinfest” because early news reports tied them together.

Apparently it’s not socially acceptable for a man to invite another man out just for coffee or to go out for a meal, in case it’s perceived as a date. Like it’s fine if you wanna go to the pub and drink beer and have a chat but make it non-alcoholic and suddenly you’re not straight anymore? You can go to the cinema together but ONLY if it’s an action movie. You guys can’t even just go shopping with each other. Oh masculinity, so fragile, so strange.

the most chilling thing about the anita sarkeesian incident (and i’m not sure if this was mentioned and/or emphasized in the articles going around) was that they literally threatened to do a “montreal style massacre” which was, if you don’t know, a man who went into a technical university, asked the men to leave the room, and then killed the women because he believed they were “feminists”.
