Those who advocate legalising abortion consider it a right; a civilisational achievement. French President Emmanuel Macron himself has proposed that the “right to abortion” be included among the rights guaranteed by the European Charter of Fundamental Rights. However, this is not just a question of one right, but rather a conflict between two rights: the mother’s right to abort and the unborn baby’s right to live.

Some 15 years after abortion was legalized in our country, we know that there are many people who believe that an embryo or fetus is not a human life (at least up to 10 weeks), and that it is a woman's right to decide to have an abortion. In the case of the Roe v. Wade ruling , abortion is admissible up to the stage of viability of the fetus; that is, until its ability to survive outside the mother's womb, which prolongs the possibility of abortion. Note the weakness of this argument: even “the viability of the newborn” is only guaranteed through the care of third parties (by the mother, father or other people who replace them). This would mean that, based on this line of argument, infanticide could be legalized.

If we do not consider that life begins at the moment of conception and that an embryo is unequivocally a human being, then the value of intrauterine life and its defense becomes extremely volatile. Ultimately, the beginning of all rights and guarantees, as a human person, ends up being established by arbitrary criteria that may vary over time, for reasons of convenience.

Excluding cases of antisocial personalities, the decision to have an abortion is a difficult one, made under tragic and often traumatic conditions. Over time, various psychological and psychiatric problems may arise that justify clinical monitoring. Anyone who says otherwise is falsifying the truth of the facts, as they have certainly never heard individual accounts of this experience, nor witnessed the suffering of these people in real life. For a woman, even when performed in a legal context, an abortion is never forgotten. Defending it as a human right is a civilizational setback, as it is denying the first of fundamental rights: the right to life.

The draft ruling by the US Supreme Court (ST) — cleverly made public through a leak —, which defends the change in the jurisprudence of the Roe v. Wade (1973) ruling, preventing restrictive state regulations on the practice of abortion, has relaunched the debate on the legalization of abortion.

The various protest initiatives, some of which have involved violence, directed at pro-life movements and even some US Supreme Court judges, are signs of coercion and intolerance that are unacceptable in a democracy and a State governed by the rule of law. In today's world, it is very difficult to discuss this issue and challenge political correctness.

Let’s start with the use of euphemisms. Many people don’t realize that language can be corrupted to give a positive spin to an ethically reprehensible concept or behavior. The use of the term “termination of pregnancy” conveys the idea that the pregnancy could be resumed at any time, but that is not possible. It is an irreversible decision; it is not a suspension, but an end. But today, society is full of euphemisms: “voluntary termination of pregnancy” (instead of abortion), “gender self-determination” (instead of gender dysphoria), “assisted dying” (instead of euthanasia), etc.

The main argument used by those in favor of legalizing abortion is the woman's choice (curiously, the man's choice is never mentioned, since there is also a father); in other words, freedom. The use of the word “freedom” is a kind of safe conduct to do whatever one wants, offering legislative support to a veritable nihilistic avalanche that is currently being observed in the Western world, with the approval of political parties (probably, in our country, the next legislative initiative will be the legalization of euthanasia).

In this case, the political strategy is simple and clever: freedom is used as an absolute argument. No one dares to attack “freedom”, otherwise they are labelled with a series of unflattering epithets, such as “fascist”, “retrograde”, “oppressor”, etc. In fact, this is the same argument used to defend euthanasia. There are those who argue that the various rights that a person has are inviolable, including the will to end one’s own life. However, not everything I choose is suitable for me, just as not everything I intend to choose is ethically acceptable.

if men’s mental health mattered (to men) they’d be creating safe spaces for themselves and each other, pursuing therapy, and creating community. instead, they perpetuate the very behaviors systems that have handicapped them in the first place, refuse to support or create community amongst each other, severely damage the women in their lives who try to care for them, and attack women online for not doing the work for them in replies to tweets like the one below lol.


[The Critical Drinker]
People like you made it literally impossible for men to have any spaces/hobbies/clubs/interests/groups or social spaces of their own. People like you mandated that women MUST be included in everything they think and do. And now people like you berate them for not having the very things they're prevented from having. People like you are the problem.

The term “Intellectual Dark Web” was created as a smear against a group of academics, pundits, and others who actively rejected “progressive” politics despite being in the exact fields where “progressive” politics tends to find the most fertile soil.

The idea was to scare people away from looking these individuals up or anything that they had to say, part of a larger effort on the part of a number of people who do practice “progressive” politics to try and prevent competing ideas from being heard.

Seeing that you aren't white, please stop doing the things white people invented.

Stop using English. It's racist and I am offended that you would appropriate the language of my race.

Stop using cell phones and the internet. That's white people technology.

Please go back to shitting in a hole the ground instead of a toilet because white people invented modern plumbing.

Cultural appropriation is no laughing matter and people like you fail to understand the deep offense and psychological trauma you can cause a person of a different race by using the things their race created.

I remember in the 2020 debate basically all of it was bullshit but Trump said something about minimum wage that was totally inoffensive and correct. Something like “it can’t be decided federally it needs to be state by state” which is a totally true thing and one of the only things that wasn’t a lie from both sides.

Trump is basically the same as any other politician, he’s really not some diabolical cartoon character.

[MeatOverRice]
Except that he’s not like any other politician and if you don’t consider a child rapist, con artist, fascism loving dickwad a “diabolical cartoon character” wtf are you doing lmao

Are you talking about Trump or Biden rn? Or Obama or Bush or any of the recent presidents? They all have the same rumours about them and when you feed into the conspiracy’s and rumours without knowing anyone’s actual policy… then your a pawn.

Using inflammatory language to dehumanize politicians is literally what the democrats complain about Trump doing. yet every democrat under the sun seems to think that everyone who disagrees with them should experience some form of pain as punishment.

[…]

So Trump needs to be stopped because he dehumanizes people. And anyone who disagrees with that is subhuman?

Check yourself…

[…]

You’re so ingrained in your own opinion you are literally acting as the force you don’t want to see in the world.

I would be weary of anyone that invalidates a fellow human based on political opinions (right now it’s you). You are literally acting exactly as the force you are trying to “stop”.

I stand by my statement on Autism being a fake disability. Unless you have Rain Man autism, you aren't disabled. Down Syndrome is a real disability. Tourettes is a real disability. Cerebral Palsy is a real disability. Autism, Dyslexia, and ADHD are like the type 2 diabetes of mental disorders. You can remove the negatives of them with changes in behavior. You cannot do that with Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, or Tourettes.

Quite honestly, I am tired of everyone on the internet diagnosing themselves with crippling, incurable autism simple because they are little lacking in social skills and because they have social anxiety. Get over it. Most of you would be cured with a little meditation and 6 months of leaving your house 1-2 times a week. I had a family member who would constantly blame other people for her problems and say that she couldn't get ahead in life because she had crippling ADHD. To which I would say, "You don't have ADHD, you're just crazy. Put real effort into managing your negative behaviors and the problems you are experiencing will go away." If you have Dyslexia then read "The Dyslexic Advantage." You aren't stupid, your brain is better at different things than other people and and worse at things that people are normally good at. Dyslexia is also a common indicator of successful people. Even with things like Schizophrenia. You'd be surprised at how many people with that have it because they are drug addicts. Not because they actually have the disease.

I'm tired of all the complaining from people. Stop diagnosing yourself as hopeless because you watched a YouTube video that said you are neurodivergent if you don't like certain smells. This is ridiculous and you're ruining your lives because you don't want to make simple changes and discipline yourself over time.

Maria de Lurdes Rodrigues #moonbat #wingnut #dunning-kruger jn.pt

The Left is not woke.[…] Susan Neiman, in her book published this year by Presença, presents us with a manifesto against tribalism and identity-based particularism in political struggle. She believes that woke thinking and behaviour are traps that distance the Left from the values ​​enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, that kill hope and obscure alternatives for change.

“Is it possible to define woke?” he asks. And he answers: it begins with concern for marginalized people and ends with the reduction of each person to the prism of their marginalization. It is this reduction that is at the root of identity politics and tribalism. The Left’s attraction to identity politics is particularly tragic, because it makes it abandon the terrain of human rights and universalism where its origin and strength lie. “Tribalism is a dangerous game, as the Right realized very early on: if the demands of minorities are not seen as human rights, but as the rights of specific groups, what prevents a majority from insisting on its own rights?”

This is, we could say, a book of political philosophy applied to the analysis of the current situation of much of the Left. The author seeks to reach many of those who want to understand and help solve the problems we face in contemporary societies. Starting from the classics of the Enlightenment, she recovers the basic ideas of universalism - solidarity, justice, progress and commitment to doubt -, demonstrating their relevance to the formulation of Left-wing policies.

At the same time, it shakes up the darkest views on progress and the modern world, considering that, although they are in many cases valid and legitimate analytical exercises, they suffer from two problems. They focus human experience on traumatic and negative dimensions, anchoring us in the past, obscuring or even ignoring all other dimensions. In doing so, they undermine the future and the hope for change.

Because the steps taken towards progress have sometimes had terrible consequences, we have lost hope in progress. Disappointments are real and sometimes devastating. But woke theories, instead of pointing to solutions, place disbelief at the center of human experience, “creating a semblance of suspicion that constitutes the background music of contemporary Western culture.”

A man being choked the life out of via police
Versus a man who was pissy about losing the election and screaming voter fraud(There was none)

He [George Floyd] died from a fentanyl overdose and people spent months burning and looting buildings and assaulting and killing people over it. Again, you avoid acknowledging that Trump told the Jan 6 protestors to stand down and go home. Meanwhile the leftist politicians were going "riots are the language of the unheard" and supporting violence.

To note, I don't think Biden should even run again, he's a dementia ridden old man, but lmfao dude, just stop, you're going to find that
basically no one on this thread agrees with you.

I don't give a single **** if a bunch of far leftists on a backwater Smash Bros forum won't validate me lmao. I'm not divorced from reality and honestly I am so over having to pretend that up is down and hot is cold.

My wife and her friends laugh at the pandering, and don't watch the movie/show. They think it's ridiculous, but they're not emotionally attached to IPs so they just move on to something else.

I have several gay friends, and black friends, and gay black friends, all of whom don't like the disingenuous nature of "inclusion" in modern cinema.

The message isn't intended to be a genuine method of gathering support. It's forced acceptance so there's no space for a nuanced conversation.

Which is why it’s known as Cultural Marxism. This is straight up 1984 type conditioning of the population.

Or in this case… there are more than “two genders”

The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command. His heart sank as he thought of the enormous power arrayed against him, the ease with which any Party intellectual would overthrow him in debate, the subtle arguments which he would not be able to understand, much less answer. And yet he was in the right! They were wrong and he was right.

It’s weird to me that the ones THE MESSAGE is pandering to fall for it so easily
What I mean is that it’s just so insincere. These movies or shows or games with marketing completely built around having a diverse character a gay character a trans character whatever it is. That’s always almost a guaranteed red flag that the show will have no substance at all and is just going for easy brownie points and a perfect shield to block any criticism. Is that really the kind of representation you’d want? Women want those cardboard cutout perfect at absolutely everything with no struggles at all girl boss characters? A black person wants to see a white character race swapped instead of an original well written character who was intended to be black from the start?

I think the word work has started to lose some meaning with how much it’s passed around, but I think to a lot of people like myself it’s referring to that right there. I think of something like Everything Everywhere All At Once which is about a conservative mother and her struggle to understand her daughter’s world. Arcane is a female driven show with a lesbian as one of the leads. Fallout show we just got has a female lead and I’m pretty sure a trans or no gender or one of those kind of things on the Brotherhood of Steel.

I’ve pretty much not at all heard woke tossed at these things or complaints about female driven stories or any such things. Because they aren’t created to shove a message down your throat and get effortless praise they actually care about these characters. People aren’t inherently shut down to ever accepting these stories they just want them to be written well.

I would just think the ones that they want to represent in these instances would appreciate such examples a hell of a lot more and not so easily be sucked in by something with absolutely no soul like The Little Mermaid remake. Sometimes it feels like a battle that can never be won. No matter how much we try to push back the crap just keeps coming and so many people just keep eating it up with a smile.

The question was never that good content isn't out there to be enjoyed - we all know that. The issue is that, for the past decade and change, there has been an active and insidious attempt to attack and besmirch major cultural touchstones (yes, like Star Wars) by either turning them into mouthpieces of THE MESSAGE or else destroy them completely. What we're seeing happen at Disney/Lucasfilm/Marvel is only a microcosm of a much bigger cultural war that seeks to destabilize or erase the core values of Western culture.

Jean-François Braunstein #wingnut #dunning-kruger twitter.com

[Translated from the original in spanish.]

The philosopher Jean-François Braunstein, against the woke ideology: "It is a religion without forgiveness in which the white man is always guilty"

-“Why do you consider it a religion?

-I talk about religion because it goes against science, against the free exchange of arguments and reality as we know it. It is the first religion taught in universities. Since the 19th century, this has always been the place of tolerance and freedom of opinion, and today the majority are dominated by this woke religion. It evokes what we call the "great religious awakening." And it is a religion without forgiveness in which the white man, colonialist, is always guilty of oppressing the eternal victims. Freedom of discussion, the search for truth and objective knowledge are in question. It is a determined attack on the enlightenment, the heritage of Western knowledge and culture. It was my duty as an intellectual to address it.”

Would anyone be interested in a protest at Ubisoft headquarters?

This entire situation is taking a huge emotional toll on this community and I think we should do something positive about it. Beautiful women have historically viewed men like us as “weird” and “creepy” so beautiful women in games have been our refuge and now that’s being taken away from us. Would anyone else be interested a peaceful March on Ubisoft or Disney headquarters?

I’ve also been thinking of doing a hunger strike in protest of woke cultural vandalism but I’m not gonna ask other people to join me.

It is different from dyslexia in that dyslexia actually has a specific effect that can be measured.

The same cannot be said for dyscalculia, where the diagnosis is basically “Oh, looks like you struggle with math and numbers. Must be dyscalculia.”

“Dyscalculia” is almost always the result of one or more other learning disabilities, whether a memory problem, a reasoning problem, a perception problem, or otherwise. You’ll never find dyscalculia without finding at least one other learning disability that causes dyscalculia.

So sure, if dyscalculia is just a label for a specific result of other disabilities, then yeah, it exists. But dyscalculia itself isn’t a specific disability with a specific measurable effect.

But in the end, regardless of the existence of dyscalculia, if there is one thing that needs to be stopped more than anything else, it’s the self-diagnosis by math students who struggle with math for one reason or another (usually the teacher’s or curriculum’s fault). And when they get that diagnosis, they give up on math, or stop trying as hard.

Again, I’m not going to validate an excuse for bad teaching practices and the discouragement of learning.

danegraphics #ableist reddit.com

Yes, learning disabilities exist, but “dyscalculia”, a disability that somehow specializes in mathematics, a non-biological non-social construct of the modern age, is a nonsensical concept.

Sure, students can have adhd, or aphantasia, or dyslexia, or some other disability, or combination of disabilities, that makes it difficult to learn math on top of the other effects those disabilities have. But there is no such thing as a disability that affects mathematics only and nothing else.

Any student can learn, even with learning disabilities. It’s just a matter of find a way to work with or around the disability. Saying “oh, you have a disability that makes it impossible for you to be good at math” is one of the worst things anyone could ever tell a child.

I’m not going to validate a lie that can only hinder a child’s ability to learn and grow.

Senator Tom Woods #psycho #enbyphobia #wingnut friendlyatheist.com

Earlier this month, Nex Benedict, a 16-year-old non-binary student from Oklahoma, died one day after being assaulted in an Owasso High School bathroom. (The details are still unclear.)

The issue came up on Friday night during a “Legislative Update” featuring several lawmakers and sponsored by the Tahlequah Area Chamber of Commerce. An audience member, Cathy Cott, asked the four Republican members of the legislature why they had “such an obsession with the LGBTQ citizens of Oklahoma and what people do in their personal lives and how they raise their children.”

As reported by the Tahlequah Daily Press, State Sen. Tom Woods offered the worst possible response:

“… Woods said that while his “heart goes out” regarding the teen’s death, he represents a constituency.

“We are a Republican state—supermajority—in the House and Senate. I represent a constituency that doesn’t want that filth in Oklahoma,” Woods said.

“We are a religious state and we are going to fight it to keep that filth out of the state of Oklahoma because we are a Christian state—we are a moral state,” Woods said. “We want to lower taxes and let people be able to live and work and go to the faith they choose. We are a Republican state and I’m going to vote my district, and I’m going to vote my values, and we don’t want that in the state of Oklahoma.”

Andy Ogles #psycho #wingnut commondreams.org

Republican Rep. Andy Ogles of Tennessee said Tuesday that "we should kill 'em all" after an activist pressed him to respond to atrocities that the U.S.-backed Israeli military is committing against Palestinians in Gaza, including children.

"I've seen the footage of shredded children's bodies," the activist told Ogles. "That's my taxpayer dollars that are going to bomb those kids."

"You know what? So, I think we should kill 'em all, if that makes you feel better," Ogles responded. "Hamas and the Palestinians have been attacking Israel for 20 years. It's time to pay the piper."

There's a whole iceberg of how deep it actually goes that you don't see.
Even in American movements that had become completely detached from Christianity you can see the elements of "Protestant ethic" or "Puritanism".
The modern woke culture and cancel culture is purely built on that. It's based on the moral outrage that a person causes to the "puritan sensibilities" even if they're not the Christian sensibilities. In this context calling someone a racial slur or one of the myriad of -phobic terms or just doing something that's not acceptable for them is the same kind of defilement of morals as with Christian moms losing their mind over Pokemon or some other game.
It wasn't from this video, but when I first learned about this fact in American culture and started to see it through this lens it all started to make sense.
It's literally everywhere in their games, music, movies, online discussions. Obviously not everyone adheres to it in a strict sense, but you can see it in their subconscious process.

This American protestant ethic is not a set of morals or values. The morals and values can be anything, even very unchristian ones. The American protestant ethic is the way of application of your morals and values to the world around you.
"Those that believe my set of values are morally superior to those that do not."
"Offending my values even passively or unintentionally calls for an attack or even mob violence from my fellow morally superior peers."
"We must always be above those that are morally evil, by attacking them and self-promoting ourselves."
"The set of morals that you adhere to has to be a central point of your identity and you must build your entire life around it"

There's lots of things that I had probably missed but that's my take on it.

DWDTOFAIFs #wingnut #sexist reddit.com

I've mentioned this around and I figure this deserves a post of its own as I think it's a worthy discussion topic. I think on some level, we self-sabotaged and allowed our entertainment to end up this way by not allowing the right people (especially conservative straight males) to enter creative centric careers.

This allowed the proliferation of women and other leftist minorities such as the LGBT etc to occur and why those in charge of our entertainment are predominantly of the mindset we are now contending with in terms of bad media that cater to our tastes.

I mean how many times have we seen boys ridicule performing arts etc calling them "g*y" etc over the years thus a lot of straight males tend to avert and avoid even thinking of going into such careers (plus also giving women and minorities a reason to act the way they do) and thus we now have a problem especially with how men are depicted in media.

I think if we want to change this, something like full-ride scholarships for conservative straight males to enter these professions would go a long way but something like that won't exist.

Greg Poole #wingnut #racist mysanantonio.com

The superintendent of a Texas school district has drawn new criticism over suspending a Black student over his locs hairstyle after defending the district in a full-page newspaper ad in the Houston Chronicle. Greg Poole, the top official at Barbers Hill ISD since 2006, says the district's Education Foundation took "the unprecedented step of buying advertising to ensure an unaltered response" after the Houston Chronicle's Editorial Board published an opinion piece on December 21.

The editorial was published a few weeks after Barbers Hill High School student Darryl George was placed in in-school suspension in early December, the same day he completed a 30-day stint at the school district's alternative school. He was initially suspended in September over a dress code violation related to his hair, the same month Texas' CROWN Act went into effect.

According to the Houston Chronicle, George initially was suspended for wearing his hair in dreadlocks pinned up in a barrel roll. The Barbers Hill ISD student handbook says male students are prohibited from having hair below the eyebrows or below the ear lobes," and hair cannot reach "below the top of a T-shirt collar or be gathered or worn in a style that would allow the hair to extend below the top of a T-shirt collar, below the eyebrows or below the ear lobes when let down."

The full page ad published on Sunday, January 14, rebukes the editorial board's criticism of the dress code and claims that loosening the rules would "have us lose sight of the main goal of educational excellence by pursuing politically oriented 'lesser' goals." He also criticizes the editorial board's position as "consistent with every single media representation of this topic nationwide."

Poole said his four decades as an educational professional "tells me districts relax their dress code expectations because they simply get tired of enforcing it and pursue easier, lesser goals."

"Our military academies at West Point, Annapolis and Colorado Springs maintain a rigorous expectation of dress. They realize being an American requires conformity with the positive benefit of unity, and being a part of something bigger than yourself," Poole wrote.

Jean-François Braunstein #wingnut #dunning-kruger #transphobia #conspiracy booknode.com

The problem is that we prefer to endanger the majority for the benefit of a tiny minority of convinced activists, who present themselves as eternal victims. Their rights as trans people come before the safety of imprisoned women. On this subject Rowling did not hesitate to aggravate her case by tweeting, on December 12, 2021, about the police who now register male criminals who have raped women as women, just if they declare that they are: "War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength. The guy with a penis who raped you is a woman." The reference to Orwell could not be better chosen, we are indeed living in 1984.

[Context: description of a book written by the fundie in question.]

A wave of madness and intolerance is sweeping the Western world. Originating in American universities, woke religion is sweeping everything in its path: universities, schools, companies, media and culture.

This religion propagates, in the name of the fight against discrimination, dogmas that are at least unheard of: Gender theory professes that sex and the body do not exist and that consciousness is what matters. Critical race theory asserts that all white people are racist, but that no racialized person is racist. Point of view epistemology argues that all knowledge is situated and that there is no objective science, not even exact sciences. The aim of the wokes is to deconstruct all cultural and scientific heritage and prepare for the establishment of a dictatorship in the name of good and social justice . It is all this and much more that Braunstein explains and contextualizes in this The Woke Religion , supported by texts, theses, conferences and essays, which he cites and explains at length, to denounce this new religion that destroys freedom. A shocking and salutary essay.

Tucker Carlson #conspiracy #crackpot #dunning-kruger #pratt rollingstone.com

Tucker Carlson’s descent into pushing conspiracies hit a scientific new low as the former Fox News host suggested in a new interview that he’s open to the theory that Earth may actually be flat.

Speaking to the Blaze’s Alex Stein (via Meidas Touch), Carlson was asked about the Flat Earth theory. “Well, I’m open to anything,” he replied. “How could I not be open to anything at this point? I mean, there’s been so much deception that you can’t trust your preconceptions.”

After dismissing the notion that history trends toward “enlightenment and technological progress” as “a complete lie,” Carlson added, “The most basic stories we’ve been told about history, about the Earth, the physical Earth itself, which has been completely changed by climate change for millions of years, once you realize all of that, then it’s like, I don’t know, what is true?”

However, Carlson wouldn’t brand himself a Flat Earther only because guns of all things taught him that the world is probably round. “As far as the curvature of the Earth, that’s a thing in shooting,” he said. “I like rifle shooting and past a certain distance you have to take that in account. That suggests it’s real. Because one thing I know that is guns. Guns are real.”

Not surprisingly, this isn’t the first time Carlson has baited Flat Earthers, using their ridiculous cause as an entry point to examine other conspiracies, like the “truth” behind 9/11 and aliens.

“Flat Earth people have been able to cruise beneath the radar for so long — and by the way I’m not discounting that possibility for the record, in case any are here, because I’m an open-minded man,” Carlson once said at a Turning Point Action conference. “Present me the evidence of its flatness, and I will amplify it.”

Alex Jones #conspiracy #psycho angrywhitemen.org

In a tirade about the COVID-19 pandemic, Infowars host and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones called for mass executions of people who developed and promoted the vaccine. Claiming that they were responsible for the deaths of 20,000,000 people, Jones demanded that Bill Gates, Anthony Fauci, and others be publicly hanged.

Jones complained that Dr. Anthony Fauci, Klaus Schwab, and Bill Gates are “still walkin’ around” after murdering “20,000,000 people.” After a rambling monologue about COVID lockdowns and mask mandates, Jones called for the metaphorical assassination of Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla.

“But the point is you just can’t let this criminal group run around and reconstitute itself and do it again,” Jones said. “And I’m not saying citizens arrest ’em — they’d turn that into terrorism. I’m not saying go out and blast or, you know, kill the head of Pfizer, [Albert] Bourla.”

“But I’m saying politically, culturally, non-violently assassinate his name, assassinate his stock, assassinate everyone that served him, politically, non-violently with a assassination of his identity. Because he is a bad person. And then don’t worry, the criminal charges will come. And they need to come. And they must come.”

But Jones quickly dropped the metaphor, pivoting to a direct call for executions. “He must hang for what he did. Bill Gates must hang for what he did. Fauci must hang for what he did,” Jones declared.

I saw that the space daddy has said that cis and cisgender are considered slurs on twitter. I hadn't really thought about it til I saw a video putting more context on it and got me think about how is used and who's been using it and think it may have some validation as such. What do you think?

[bife_de_lomo]
I'm with Norm Macdonald. It's an attempt to marginalise normal people.

[No-Basket-5993]
It is a slur, it's used as a slur and it's whole purpose and use is to demoralize those you are speaking to or about.

[MoistShare601]
It's an attempt to make you cosign their narrative. Glad someone is putting it down.

That whole Marisa turning out to be a literal pedophile was trending for a bit on the farms.

Also, DSC's been posting about Marisa (#homophobia CHOMO RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS) on the fundie board, so we're getting a wee bit of traffic from that quarter as well. Choosing that particular hill to die on is exactly on brand for the semi-articulate brain tumour that writes most of his posts for him, so hurrah I guess.

[Context: someone named Marisa with a profile pic from the japanese franchise Touhou talked shit about Doomer Boards, and one of the members got salty about it.]
I feel so sorry for the Japanese guy who made Touhou; you make a hard as nails bullet hell shooter on a shoestring budget with a VERY decent soundtrack while drunk that has a universe filled with SOUL that's thematically steeped in Japanese folklore. You add a diverse stylish cast of characters who have charming and eccentric personalities that are mostly morally grey and some are really badass (I mean there's a loyal house maid who doubles up as a bodyguard for a vampire mansion that can literally freeze time then throw hundreds of knives at you before unfreezing time.. but can just as easily serve you tea).

The niche game spiralling into success is really heartwarming for me, Japanese musicians (<3 Shibayan) make amazing rearrangements of your songs with female singers who have amazing vocal ranges like 3L, hundreds of fangames get made across different genres and an anime and tons of manga get adapted from it.

Meanwhile in the West it's just taint and despair everywhere.. pedophiles, sex pests, groomers, stalkers, predators and ideologically driven creeps try become your characters so they can use your characters' faces to appropriate and pass off their unacceptable chaotic evil personalities and fetishes as "morally grey".. alongside the usual "social democrats" invading what excuse there is in the Western fandom to try assert ideological control over it really just adds up to Touhou being lowkey the biggest disconnect between the East and West I've seen, ever... you can't even blame anyone for hating it the moment they find out it exists when that's the only reaction you can trust.

I tried really hard not to write this post, but wow, fuck you "Marrisa", thank you for further vilifying a franchise that really didn't need further vilification. Kudos.

The advent of dating apps. Every single girl has been programmed from birth to believe they deserve a Prince Charming so women will all only swipe on the top 5-10% of men. Women just have too many options now, not just guys from class or work or friend groups, but the entire world, so why not try and get with a handsome millionaire? Because these men have all of the options, they'll never commit to a woman, just hump n dump, so women are left feeling used and unsatisfied, yet they don't change their behavior. The other 90% of men are also left unsatisfied as we get very few matches and the ones we do get will generally ghost us.

I don't literally think the government should assign mates to citizens, but modern romance is dead and broken. Men and women have never been more antagonistic towards one another in history, thanks most likely to fourth wave feminism, which has resulted in the "all men are oppressors/trash/rapists" type of discourse. The average millennial man has not been laid in the last year according to a semi-recent study. So men are lonely, spend more time online, and gradually develop mysogynistic attitudes.

#MeToo has also led women to not trust men (harassment, rape) and men to not trust women (false accusations). People are scared to interact. I don't even try to flirt with anyone anymore lest it be construed as sexual harassment. People are so broken they can't connect IRL and are forced to try and keep using dating apps. An example of this zeitgeist was a mainstream horror film coming out a year or two ago about a couple meeting in a grocery store instead of an app and the dude turns out to be a serial killer (fucking thanks, Hollywood).

I post EPICly FOR THE LULZ!!

I had no problem with Mayhemic Destructor when people were losing their shit over him. He was spamming rather much though fortunately was reigned in somewhat after a while. I really hope he's doing alright these days. I tried to help him and talk some sense into him at times and he was very reasonable to talk to. I had no problem with his autism because he was not weaponized for the FORCES OF EVIL who are trying to starve and deprive us all including even their own useful idiots doing their bidding thinking they'll be rewarded with a communist utopia. I already mentioned how Musk and Carmack rose above shit.

I'm against discrimination. The most qualified person should get a position, job, promotion, or be trusted to handle something. Denying such a suitable candidate for something truly IS DISCRIMINATION just because they don't have some aspect to meet a bullshit quota.

Also the increasing rates of autism are a sure sign that it's being inflicted on people, whether purposely or accidentally. I've seen some stuff that a major cause may be mercury (which is a serious freaking neurotoxin) or its derivatives PLUS parasites, and that many poorly trained doctors under the medical cartel refuse to test for parasites. There's also recent class action law suit commercials over some apparent findings of pregnant women having taken various common pain killers having autistic kids. For a control group, how about the Amish? They live in vast regions of Pennsylvania and Ohio in the US. They are not quarantined away from normies and yet autism is virtually nonexistent among them. Probably same deal with food allergies and auto immune disorders.

[Context: they are talking about the case of Haley Anderson, who was murdered by a man after she told him she didn’t want to commit to a relationship with him.]

Haley put herself in that situation. I don't think she didn't realize that Orlando is a odd human being. But she continued to satisfy her lust with him and that caused her end

he killed her. But why did she go to his house in the first place ? To have physical relationship with him. The issue is not that. The issue is she did that despite knowing he is very odd human being. Like who does that ? An addict does that. She had Zero self control. The moment her family realised that she has started going out with Orlando despite his odd behaviour, they should have strongly insisted her to go on therapy for her sex addiction.

[Context:This is the creator of Dragon Ball defending himself after being criticized for the lack of black characters in the series.]

This is a Japanese franchise. Made by Japanese people, for Japanese people. It's not your show. It's ours.

The things people complain about continue to change over time, but Japan's racial demographics do not. They (black people) do not live here.
