"Reddit’s Banned Hate Groups Are Still Here": The Atlantic magazine tries (not very hard) to understand WTF that purge was all about by AngelaMotorman in GenderCritical

It's hilarious how pearl-clutchy these idiots are that simply getting rid of voices you don't like on the major platforms didn't put an end to those voices existing. "Now they're OUT THERE, in the WILD, beyond our censorship and CONTROL. Turns out some of those fucking uppity bitches are PROGRAMMERS. Panic, everyone, PANIC." The_donald migrating to its own site got a full-blown coverpage in Vice a while back. I'm slightly proud that Ovarit managed to draw the same level of hysteria.

LMAO what the hell are these mental gymnastics?? "Most females discover they are attracted to males sexually during puberty" should be the title of this post. So many unnecessary steps to arrive back at regular old run of the mill heterosexuality. My god.

Examine what this actually is - teenage females finding out they're turned on by physically beautiful young males. How kinky! How unusual! ...............no. It's heterosexuality. There's hardly been a female teenager born on earth that wasn't into boy bands or kid actors. That's ALL. But because these porny relationships are presented exclusively as male-male, they think THEY need to be male to have these loving egalitarian relationships. The only male-female relationships they see in anime/porn are the kind where the female is presented as a doll/toy/object of torture/humiliation/domination. Which one would you, as a scared teen, gravitate towards?? Obviously the sexual dynamic that involves less anal rape.

Note, this post isn't complaining about drag queens, gays, or even just the ultra-rare but not nonexistent makeup experimenting straight dude, and I'm sorry you interpreted it that way. My problem is with TIMs who go out of their way to find a spot where a lot of women are hanging out, and then insist that those women drop what they're doing and cater to them them them.

I'll try to explain it simply (I know you Brits think all us Americans are just too stupid to live, but here we go anyway) - Since the early 2000s, Congress and the Senate have been effectively dead as legislative bodies. Laws are made by EO, then the popular ones are codified and the ones too hot to handle get repealed when the government changes hands. An EO will be law for at least 4 if not 8 years. That's long enough for a new rule to shift the very structure of society. A generation can reach adulthood remembering no time when it wasn't the norm. Can it be undone? Yes. Is it stupid to act like it's a big deal? No no no no.

Yeah, it saddens me too. I've tried, repeatedly, to embrace a female group.

Young lefty work ethic is, "If you pay me minimum wage, I'm only gonna do a shit job." And that's how you stay at minimum wage forever! If you show you can't do good work at a lower level, why would anyone promote you, or want to pay you more? by suckitreddit in MeanwhileOnReddit

[–]wecandobetter 9 insightful - 1 fun9 insightful - 0 fun10 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

This is an ax I've repeatedly ground against coworkers my own age at jobs. Most aren't like this, but some take the view that until they receive what they consider to be sufficient compensation, they will never do more than the bare minimum (if even that). Shockingly, they stay at that level forever and bitch to me about it. No. This is not how the world works. You show up at your starting wage, do a good job cheerfully, and go above and beyond occasionally when the opportunity presents itself. THEN you may demand higher wages. Your employer doesn't know what your potential is, and isn't going to raise your pay on the THEORY that you might stop acting like a piece of shit if he does.

Edit: Of course, if you follow step A, and then your employer doesn't follow through with the pay/promotion for you effort, you ditch that MOFO and take your talents elsewhere.

No, that's an actual evidence-based opinion unlike your forward looking conjecture. Trump's policies were good, even if his personality is repugnant.

You're still very much ignoring u/StillLessons excellent point - which is that if you look at what Democrats do, not what they say they'll do, they are either horribly ineffective or else they're liars, and all the years of Clinton and Obama didn't look a wit different from the Bush years in terms of war, decline in economic mobility, decline in civic institutions, and general undermining/malaise in the working class. Joe has no fucking brilliant new ideas....he's a relic of the old machinery. He has nearly 50 years of politics behind him showing what he is and what he does, and dude, he can not and will not deliver any of those vaguely nice sounding things.

I'm struggling with something I've noticed about female-dominated hobby spaces. by [deleted] in GenderCritical

Yeah I don't know what to say either. I'm 30, which means I kind of came of age during the rise of internet culture, but too late to be immersed in it. Internet forums and chat rooms drive a lot of the gatekeeping and culture policing. I've never liked female-only groups/hobbies. Whatever innocuous activity it starts off as always becomes:

  1. In opposition to men instead of us doing it for our own sake (ie, I'm an engineer. There is a prominent women only engineering association that spends more time prevaricating on being feeeeemale engineers than on providing tools and resources to be, you know, better engineers. Most groups become like that - too focused on the fact that women are doing something 'manly' rather than just letting the group exist for the sake of the activity.

  2. Politicized with outside issues - no better example of this exists than the knitting world. A female-dominated hobby became overrun and absorbed by people with a far-left agenda, and the hobby was lost in the hyperfocus on the agenda.

  3. Pretending to be independent and separate from men while secretly revolving mostly around gaining attention from men. Your tragic-heroine manic pixie shtick types are soooo guilty of this. Yes, taking on the appearance of a pioneering homesteader, or a Victorian femme fatale, or a whimsical e-girl is a female 'activity', but who's it really for? I'll tell y'all a story - a friend of mine, a dude, got involved in a group of female cosplayers/costumers. Like, he was the only guy. You know what happened? The entire group dynamic ended up revolving around him, competing for his sexual attention and time, and eventually ended in some extremely dark character assassination shit when too many people got their feelings jealous and hurt. These 'I'm not like other girls' types are ALLLLLL about the male gaze, no matter what they say.

As far as hobbies go, I don't find a lot of value in seeking out women-only groups. There's lots of knowledge and experience to be gained from men, and because male or co-ed groups seem better at focusing on THE ACTUAL HOBBY, there's 75% less bullshit. I'm not going to miss out on my male co-workers knowledge and experience to sit in the woman-box and circle-jerk about how brave and oppressed we are, sorry SWE.

A white scientist battling cancer gets beaten half to death in a public park, and his first reaction (and the first reaction of his friends) is to be a black “ally.” The problem is, blacks don’t seem to be very interested in white allyship at the moment. by Chipit in politics

I literally had a conversation with a woman from California who bragged to me about how her two half-Korean children hate white people and are offended by their presence. I told her "Great, so when I'm thrown in a gulag in 30 years, I'll know who's responsible." The stupid smile fell off her stupid face and she stuttered "I-I guess that's not really a good thing is it". You think, bitch? You think actively teaching your children race-based hatred wasn't A+ parenting? Fucking morons.

CORRECT. Every advancement has left some people out in the cold, but new opportunities always result. Fact is, every individual human IS working less and consuming more. Is this, strictly speaking, a good thing? Idk. But the promise of automation was certainly not a lie.

Agreeeeeeed. Why should a family benefit more from services, yet pay less taxes at the same time?? No wonder the US public mostly hates new social benefits programs - the average income earner knows damn well that they'll never receive any benefit from it themselves.

The ultra-rare genetic defect of true genital hermaphroditism does not negate the fact that homo sapien is a binary-sex species. The statistic is thrown around a lot that intersex conditions are as common as redheads....but that's only true if you include the 99.9% of people who still have fully functional sexed genitalia and secondary sex characteristics, just have some minor differenced hormone sensitivity. So in other words, it's bullshit.

Tax filings reveal Joe Biden's cancer charity spent millions on salaries, zero on research. Gave out no grants in its first two years, and spent millions on the salaries of former Washington DC aides it hired. The Biden Cancer Initiative was founded in 2017 by the former VP and his wife Jill Biden. by Orangutan in politics

Whenever a politician or billionaire starts a 'foundation' you can pretty much rest assured that its merely a tax shield/way to hand out money via fake jobs to buddies, not a legitimate charity.

Seems college-aged or near enough (maybe a bit after). These people have zero emotional stability, and they've convinced themselves they're fighters again a force equal in menace to the Nazi Gestapo. I mean it's all just a big game for fun and woke-points, but that's how they act. Those cops have the chill of glaciers in reality. The spitter is just going to get a few minutes to chill out in a squad car, then they'll turn her loose.

Yup. On old GC, there were a few tempts at pushing us towards ideological purity. Those were put down fairly hard by the community. Still important to resist that mindset.

It's hard to pin down trends over time, but this article points to some telling statistics. Lesbians are only 16% of all self-ID'd LGBTQA+GHJHLASFHLSA, and of those, 69% of them are over the age of 40. This suggests a decrease in younger lesbians 'coming on-line'. Young women who might have used to ID as lesbian are now more likely to call themselves bisexual or queer or genderfluid or whatever. Being 'lesbian' just isn't cool anymore (not that it ever really was). Most trans are male-to-female, but the rate of female-to-male has been exploding of late, to the point where even the mainstream media has somewhat picked up on it. There are a lot of reasons for this, mostly having to do with confused teenage girls spending too much time on the internet watching yaoi porn and fetishizing gay male relationships. Women in anime/porn, on the other hand, are treated...not very well. So the aforementioned teenage girl is repulsed from the idea of womanhood. Plus the whole gender/sex dialogue has gotten so fucking stupid, any girl who leans toward 'butchness' gets told she must just be a 'man inside'.

The numbers do not bear out your conclusion regionally. It got worse in the SOUTH, where its disgustingly hot and everyone stays indoors in AC. According to the beloved media, riots do not spread covid 19 (through magic) and barbecues in summer are not high risk activities. Look at MN, WI, or MI over the summer months and then contrast that with the beginning of the school year.
