Women's Work Hidden by Patriarchy and Capitalism: Honoring Historical Craftsmanship Contributions
We exist in a time when the gender pay gap is expanding. Recent studies indicate that women earn less than men, and the pandemic has exacerbated the pay gap in various nations. This disparity continues because there are fewer women in high-paying leadership roles and because women predominantly work in lower-paying industries. Yet, there are even more subtle and harsh reasons contributing to the gender pay gap. Historically, women’s work has been undervalued, resulting in unequal pay for comparable jobs between genders. Although this practice is gradually decreasing, it still exists.

The Hypocrisy of Party Loyalists. Content Warning. AI-Generated.
There is a sickness in modern politics, one that is both pervasive and insidious, infecting the very fabric of democratic societies. It’s not a simple matter of corruption or a momentary lapse in judgment—it’s a deep-seated blind loyalty to political parties, a disease that has rendered large segments of the population incapable of critically engaging with their own side of the political spectrum. This loyalty isn’t just about defending policy or ideology—it’s about defending the party itself. It’s about a mindset that demands fealty, unquestioning support, and adherence to a set of beliefs that often defy logic and reason. Those who have fallen into this trap cannot see the hypocrisy of their actions because, in their eyes, their party’s truth is the only truth that matters.

The Cult of MAGA . Content Warning.
When you hear the word cult, what do you think of first? For most, the word probably conjures up dark images of charismatic serial killers or clandestine rituals done in the dead of night. It's a misunderstood concept that mystifies and terrifies many, but why is this? People are fascinated by cults because of the psychological and sociological aspects that influence them. It's not an easy idea to define or understand, of course. Although some cults are easily understood as such, others are a little more subtle.

President Trump Signs Order to Send Migrants to Guantánamo Bay A Controversial Move in 2025. In a move that has sparked widespread debate and condemnation former President Donald Trump now back in office has signed an executive order authorizing the transfer of certain migrants to the U.S naval base at Guantánamo Bay Cuba. The order announced on January 29/2025 marks a significant escalation in the Trump administration's immigration policies and reignites discussions about human rights national security and the rule of law. The executive order targets migrants who are deemed high risk or potential threats to national security. According to the Trump administration this includes individuals with suspected ties to criminal organizations terrorist groups or those who have been involved in violent activities. The order also applies to migrants who have entered the U.S illegally and are awaiting deportation proceedings. Guantánamo Bay long associated with the detention of terrorism suspects will now serve as a holding facility for these migrants. The administration argues that the base's remote location and existing infrastructure make it an ideal site for detaining individuals who pose a security risk. However critics argue that the move is a blatant violation of international law and human rights standards.

Trump’s U.S. Iron Dome: A Bold Vision or an Impossible Dream?
On January 27, 2025, President Donald Trump made headlines once again, this time with an executive order launching the development of an American version of Israel’s famed Iron Dome missile defense system.

While the idea sounds promising, it comes with significant challenges, including sky-high costs, technical hurdles, and a fair share of skepticism.
