Men are trash เขาให้เหตุผลโดยการยกสถิติคดีกราดยิง, ล่วงละเมิดทางเพศ, femicide ที่กว่า 90% มันเกิดจากผู้ชาย เพื่อชี้ให้เห็นว่า ปัญหาความรุนแรงหรือการล่วงละเมิดทางเพศมันไม่ใช่แค่เรื่องความเลวส่วนบุคคล แต่มันเกี่ยวกับเพศด้วย และเพศที่กำลังทำตัวเป็นปัญหาตอนนี้คือผู้ชาย I suppose it’s natural for a career academic to become transfixed on anecdotal information to support a preconceived mindset versus challenging assumptions, considering different perspectives, and removing any and all nuance, but it makes her arguments general and weak kneed. An Interrogation of Beauty: A Review of "Beautiful World, Where Are You" By Sally Rooney What we have in "Beautiful World, Where Are You," is a novel from a growing writer coming to terms with her recognition. In Arguing for a Better World , philosopher Arianne Shahvisi draws on examples from everyday life to show us how to work through a set of thorny moral questions, equipping us to not only identify our positions but to carefully defend them.

Divide and conquer so the old adage goes. An effective strategy but only in world with people willing to concede to interpreting life through a low resolution, binary lens. Extreme Adventure: Bill Hillmann on His Memoir, The Pueblos, and His Fight to Defend Bull Running "The Pueblos: My Quest to Run 101 Bull Runs in the Small Towns of Spain" is a wild adventure into the culture of bull running. The Good Fight: An Interview with Haki R. Madhubuti on "Taught By Women" "Taught by Women" is a culmination of my saying to all these women, … thank you, that you did not do this for me, you did this for us, you did it for the nation.

The Sun Is Still In the Sky: A Review of Miriam Toews' "Fight Night" A deeply heartwarming glimpse of the bonds between mothers and daughters and grandmothers and granddaughters. Toggling between despair and hope, Shahvisi offers a practical and forgiving path into the tough discussions we have with each other—and our own consciences.”— SALON Now imagine that instead of losing another hour of your life in a social media spat or knowing that the only way to make it through lunch was by biting your tongue, you could find a way to talk about injustice – and, just possibly, change someone’s mind. Allows us to not only interrogate our own views, but to persuade others using reason and optimism. A must read' Aaron Bastani, author of Fully Automated Luxury Communism

Political progressives like to think they have the advantage of reason over their right-wing counterparts, who often don’t seem to know what the hell they are talking about. Ask someone on the radical right to define wokeness or critical race theory or white privilege, or democracy for that matter, and all you are likely to get is a steaming pile of verbal mush dumped on social justice issues one would have thought long settled. It’s as though they think that line in the Pledge of Allegiance about “liberty and justice for all” was written by a socialist. (Well, in fact it was written by a socialist.) But progressives, too, can be mealy-mouthed when it comes to articulating the concepts held dear to their cause; they are no less prone to fumbling the reasons that make their cause the right cause for everyone and the only cause for democracy. Arianne Shahvisi's book cuts through the noise with an eminently sensible discussion of key contemporary 'culture war' issues. -- ALISON PHIPPS, author of Me, Not You: The Trouble with Mainstream Feminism Dr Arianne Shahvisi, Senior Lecturer in Ethics at BSMS, launched her new book, Arguing for a Better World, at the medical school on 12 July 2023. Arianne was joined in conversation by Bobbie Farsides, Professor of Clinical and Biomedical Ethics at BSMS, for readings from the book and a discussion on some of the topics. The circular logic of the argument is the key to plausible deniability inserted in every chapter of the book. The card “oh, this is a reverse racism, not racism”. Because there are always a lot of stereotypical groups above in the hierarchy of suffering.Gives progressives everything they need to defend their views in an increasingly polarized public sphere . . . Arguing for a Better World belongs on nightstands and in book clubs everywhere -- Carol Hay, author of Think Like a Feminist: The Philosophy Behind the RevolutionAllows us to not only interrogate our own views, but to persuade others using reason and optimism. A must read -- Aaron Bastani, author of Fully Automated Luxury Communism: A Manifesto Men are trash ถือว่าเหยียดเพศมั้ย, คนขาวเป็นฝ่ายถูก racist ได้มั้ย, ทำไมไม่ all live matter ฯลฯ แต่อยากอ่านข้อโต้แย้งที่ประเทืองปัญญากว่าที่คนเถียงกันบนเนต เล่มนี้จัดไป An antidote to division: a book that arms you with the ability to build good arguments and find a path through conflict and confusion.

Join Dr Arianne Shahvisi, Senior Lecturer in Ethics at Brighton and Sussex Medical School (BSMS), for the launch of her new book, Arguing for a Better World. Arianne will be joined in conversation by Professor Bobbie Farsides, Professor of Clinical and Biomedical Ethics at BSMS, for readings from the book and a discussion on some of the topics.Now imagine that instead of losing another hour of your life in a social media spat or knowing that the only way to make it through lunch was by biting your tongue, you could find a way to talk about injustice - and, just possibly, change someone's mind. A philosophy professor attempts a cooler approach to divisive political questions.In chapters with intriguing titles like 'Can You Be Racist to a White Person?' 'Is It Sexist To Say Men Are Trash?' and 'Has Political Correctness Gone Too Far?' Shahvisi attempts not 'to be "objective" or "apolitical,"if such a thing were even possible,' but to 'make my reasoning clear enough that those who disagree with me will at least see where we part ways.'"— Kirkus Review From the Publisher Polarization is prolific and its consequences increasingly clear. Now, more than ever, we need more sophisticated, high resolution ways to pursue truthfulness, extract the essential value lying at the heart of different experiences and points of view, and synergize distributed wisdom to make smarter decisions together. We need each other. We cannot navigate this complexity effectively, alone. These questions tap into some of today’s most divisive issues, and finding an answer can often lead to confusion and resentment. Allows us to not only interrogate our own views, but to persuade others using reason and optimism. A must read’ Aaron Bastani, author of Fully Automated Luxury Communism

Men are trash คือต้องการชี้ให้เห็นความเชื่อมโยงระหว่าง trashness กับ masculinity การพยายามไปทำให้วลีนี้ซอฟต์ลง (เช่นใช้คำว่า some men) เลยเป็นอะไรที่หลงประเด็น เพราะมันยิ่งไปทำให้ความรุนแรงด้วยเหตุแห่งเพศกลายเป็นเรื่องความเลวส่วนบุคคลไป แถมการพูดว่า "ผู้ชายบางคนเป็นคนเลว" มันก็ go without saying สุดๆ เหมือนบอก 1+1 = 2 พูดไปคงไม่โดนด่าแหละ แต่ก็ไร้สาระจนไม่รู้จะพูดไปทำไม Men are trash อาจเป็นวลีที่ก้าวร้าวรุนแรง (offensive) แต่มันไม่ได้กดทับ (oppressive) เพราะผลกระทบต่อชีวิตผู้ชายค่อนข้างจำกัด ต่อให้วลีนี้กลายเป็นวลีฮิตก็ไม่ได้ทำให้ผู้ชายสูญเสียอะไร และที่มาของมันก็ไม่ได้เกิดจากความเกลียดชัง แต่เป็น demand for justice ที่ไม่เคยได้รับการตอบสนอง เพราะฟังก์ชันนึงของ Men are trash คือสาดสปอตไลท์ไปที่ฝั่งผู้กระทำ และย้ำเตือนว่าความรุนแรงเหล่านี้เป็นปัญหาของผู้ชายที่ผู้ชายต้องไปแก้ ไม่ใช่ให้เหยื่อปรับตัว Arguing for the better world” is the title. Yet, the author does not define what “better world” is. Which would be the absolute basic requirement for writing a book with a title like that. Which turned the entire book into “a guide to household virtue signalling”. If the author would look for genuine change, they would define the goal. Without a logical goal, any action becomes a meaningless virtue signalling.
