Holy fuck the throwback meme.
Holy fuck the throwback meme.
See, comments like this…
Yes, because having a visible sexual fetish deviating from normalcy makes them a child predator. Fuck off with these chud talking points.
I’d argue that sexual expression is insanely repressed, and that celebrating it openly is more in line with the LGBTQ+ movement than you realize.
I mean, look at this thread. We have a majority upvoted comment calling this person mentally ill. Another insinuating that they’re a child predator. Just for being willing to express a non-normative opinion on sexuality. That’s not that different from the right-wing chuds calling trans people mentally ill as the modern stand-in for the r-slur, which in turn is a modern stand-in for “doing a socially unacceptable thing that I don’t like and should be ashamed.”
Personally, I think this person’s choices are in poor taste. But I get it. I get why someone would want to do this in a world where they’re constantly told they’re strange and wrong for the way they’re wired, so long as that wiring doesn’t cause harm to others.
I don’t inherit the sins of my father solely because of my skin color.
Correct. We inherit the responsibility to do what we can to make those wrongs right because of the advantages we are afforded by our historical background.
Because of the family I was born into, I was afforded easy access to food, shelter, and education, and easily able to find success and prosperity. This allows my children the same, and that’s, in large part, a result of history. Those coming from less advantaged socio-economic backgrounds do so because, again at least in part, my distant relatives stole from them to my benefit.
When these issues are divided by skin color, then yes, it is racist to ignore them in their entirety over the argument that we had no direct control over the actions of our forefathers, as we continue to benefit from them today. It’s really some trolley problem stuff: we are advantaged by being the ones hanging out around the lever, not tied to the tracks. When we are asked to switch the tracks, or heaven forbid stop the trolley, we should not respond, “it’s racist to tell me I should be doing something about this! I didn’t build the tracks! I don’t own the trolley!” Okay, cool. But they’re down there, on the tracks, and we’re up here, next to the lever. Call it luck, but by the nature of our birth, we have an advantage that minorities do not. It is not racist to identify that.
You want genuine people, friend, taking the time to try and discuss these perspectives to someone is about as genuine as it gets. It’s not easy to accept that, despite massive personal struggles and relative low wealth and prosperity in a world owned by billionaires, I’ve been at an advantage just because I was born European descendant Caucasian. Don’t mistake disagreement for a lack of authenticity, or being poor of character.
And yet we benefit from it every single day all the same, while throwing out hands up and screaming “that isn’t on me!”
We’re not responsible for what happened to them then, but we are responsible in what we do about it now. Turning away that responsibility while continuing to reap the benefits is racism.
You heard it here first, ladies: the left knows how to eat pussy. You’re welcome.
While I am not okay with the game price hike, you’re comparing genuine dog shit to actual good games. It’s like asking why anyone would ever order a steak when they can just go to McDonald’s. Sure they’re both food, but they’re not really comprable.
That said, I am not trying to justify Nintendo’s pricing. They’re asking for too much of a leap (+50%!!!) in too short of a time frame. But this meme is a bad argument.
Every time I tell myself I am not buying a Switch 2 because the games are too damn expensive and I already own a Legion Go for hand-held gaming, I remember that Kirby Air Riders will exist and I become the angry, arms crossed “WELL, FINE!” guy.
That said, City Trial mode or I riot.
Convinience. I’m a gamer first and foremost, and more of a hardware person than a software person at that. I have a friend who games on Linux and I’ve seen the fights he sometimes goes through to make things run. Sometimes it’s great, and it’s awesome, and others… Well, we’ll lose a night or two before finally getting in, or deciding it ultimately won’t work.
I know there are distros to ease these problems, improve capatibility, etc., but when compared to Win10, which I am comfortable on and understand, it’s just easier to stick.
That said, I have my limits, and a forced Microsoft account is a hard no-go for me.
As an aside, if you have any distros that you think would allieviate/solve my issues, feel free to link.
We might be on the last version of Windows that I am willing to run.
“No, you don’t understand, if you just don’t think about the consequences of the things you say or do, this is really funny!”
You should genuinely be embarrassed to post this kind of stuff.
Ah yes, nothing like a little chauvinism to start my day. Women should be seen, not heard, amirite guys?
/s just in case.
Chuds: “people are exaggerating when they compare Trump to Hitler.”
ICE:
This is literally my “message received” emote.
If people thought it was rude, I’d be fired by now.
Yes? Should I not? “insta” as in instanteous, and “gram” as in a telegram. This is a name rooted in already understood language to give me an understanding of what it is at first encounter. Bard, same, something that tells a story, I’d assume. But I’ve never seen it before so /shrug.
“Lemmy” means nothing to me.
Fediverse is good. “Verse” to the end of anything suggests it’s own ecosystem, or “universe,” and Fedi for federation. Makes sense.
Of course he is. His entire wealth is rooted in arapatheid. The irony of him claiming to be a victim of racism is so dissonant from reality that I genuinely struggle to find good words to describe it.
Except now the app pushes ads to you through notifications.
You should probably not try to swallow a red pill that large. You’ll choke.
Because a marginalized group has never been misled to accept and excuse abuse before. What a fuckin’ take.
Not sure what you mean by my “own house.” American white women are a demographic I’m displaced from in a number of ways.
God fucking dammit.
