imagine picking an example so dumb that terry pratchett literally used it for social commentary in a way that disproves your point IN A FANTASY NOVEL
Max Dubler 🏳️🌈@maxdubler.com · 3d agoI don’t want to pick on this person but you can still buy Dr Martens that are made in their English factory using heritage materials and high quality Japanese-made Levi’s 501s that are just like the ones they made in the 80s. These are less popular than the cheaper, lower quality versions.
the thing is, whatever its drawbacks, it's important that, on the day Bluesky does away with the nuclear block, we all abandon ship at once

If people took the danger of driving as seriously as they took the (non)danger of bears then we'd all be carrying car protection bazookas as we travelled too and from state parks to protect us from the blood thirsty cars that hunt us at a rate about 14,000x higher than bears.
Cops, ICE, military, they are all the same thing at the end of the day. You should never be able to live that shame down. Joining these organizations is joining a FASCIST, MURDEROUS, WHITE SUPREMACIST STATE. You did it to PROFIT off of white supremacy. I don't want to hear excuses.
it really recontextualizes all the times i get called a twink. like hmm are you saying that because im a small gay man or are you saying it because you view me as a boything it's acceptable to project your questionable sexual fantasies onto. and men arent the only ones who do this btw. lol.
It’s basically the superhero trope; what if Justice existed as a person and that person were Very Large? It’s fine as long as you understand it’s a metaphor but I think too many people don’t understand that real justice is a thousand boring people painfully aware of the limits of what they know
I know the left-handedness graph is talked about constantly but as a bi gen z dude it's literally that. Growing up in a homophobic household, I used to ignore my attraction to men. Getting out of that environment and allowing my worldview to evolve led me to recognize and embrace it instead.

The demonizing of testosterone and TRT as a whole actively harms trans men and mascs, not looksmaxxers or whatever group of privileged cis men you're imagining. They won't face the consequences. We will.
“I don't get political” translates to “This isn't hurting me yet and I don't care that it's hurting you.”

For all the replies saying "but public transit is terrible, I have to wait an hour for the bus"... comrade, what you are suffering from is the *absence* of public transit.

among other things i see the rise of "anti gender ideology"/GC/TERF politics (aka State Rape Biopolitics) now dominating the anglosphere as the antifeminist counterrevolution (in the "national socialism vs socialism" sense) to MeToo's politics against rape and it's telling who the players are
however "get back in your cybertruck" is, in fact, a "crawl back under your rock" variation

There's an indicator species for evaluating the safety of your urban infrastructure, and it's not middle-aged men on bikes. It's women, seniors, and kids feeling safe enough to ride in their everyday clothes.
Ok it's learning time. It's clear some are having trouble differentiating between anti-Zionist statements about Israel/AIPAC and those that veer into Protocols/ZOG antisemitic territory. This is bad, and the mainstreaming of ZOG and other neonazi dog whistles is accelerating so let's get into it.
i really wish people would stop responding to shitty censorious moderation by loudly declaring that children should be banned from social media anyway so that the internet can be an adult-only space. you understand that's literally the exact same policy as age verification, right?
