  • I have a conservative friend whose father died from covid which absolutely devistated her. She's from a small rural town she used to love but cannot stand it anymore because everyone she knew there was like "god's plan" blablabla without offering any real sympathy. So there are a few running around out there, but by far the minority.

  • I think it's because instead of being a "taboo" category, which is inherently a powerful word that a certain kind of person just thrives on, it's just really dismissive which completely takes the wind out of their sails lmao.

    Like, if it's taboo, they can at least convince themselves that there's a silent majority out there who agree with them but are too afraid to say it, and they're "strong and couragous" for fighting against these "oppressive social cages" or whatever, but nah man they're just fuckin weird and nobidy likes them.

  • How dare she operate within the confines of the democratic system as best she can to slowly make progress towards her goals instead of challenging each republican in congress to a Fight to the Death in order to usurp their positions and pass the idealized bill herself!

  • Okay, so reading the whole thing and trying to figure out what he's really trying to say through all that rambling.

    First he's talking about how monogamy and polyamory are 2 different systems for reproduction, which, yeah technically true. I think he means the "one woman per man" in a sense of, that's how monogamy is structured, not literally "we are going to make the government gather the women and distribute the women evenly", though I still don't know what fucking point the weirdo's trying to make.

    Then he talks about "strong" men trying to get the women back. At this point I (naively) considered the possibility that he was actually going to make a critique about the "alpha male" bs, since that's how they commonly think.

    But then he starts talking about how they do that is by telling the women they can be self-sufficient??? And that what women really need is a man to protect them?? Even if we did go with the simplistic reasoning he was basing this off of, that might makes right, the strong men could clearly just beat the shit out of the weak men and take their women. What fucking nonsense are you smoking to think that the strongest guy in the room would need to play those mind games??

    My guy has clearly never genuinely looked at the relationship between an abuser and his victim, or looked at the fucking Taliban that operates on this same shitty logic and see how very much worse off those women are.

    So in conclusion, while he seemed to start off saying that monogamy > polyamory purly as a genetic device, monogamy is actually bad because then the "strong men" with try to steal the women by checks notes empowering them??

    Fuckin weirdo.

  • NewPipe had to update a couple of times in the past month because YouTube made changes that broke the 3rd party playback. First time it took a few days, but so far it seems they've been able to keep up with YouTube's bs.

    I worry for a day when YouTube figures out how to make ads an unskippable part of the video itself so that they're present with or without adblock, while also maintaining the ability to update them as needed.

  • Man I tried to get more cultured by reading 1001 Nights and boy lemme tell you I couldn't even make it that far because it was literally a whole buncha (muslim-coded, not the main concern here) incel manosphere bullshit but written in the middle east however long ago. Legit there was one story about how a lady was cheating on a djinn who kidnapped her while he slept and the message was "man, if bitches cheat on BIG, STRONG men like him, bitches will cheat on anybody" This comes after one of the characters (a king) finds out that his wife was having orgys with all his "large-membered, intellectually-inferior, dark-skinned servants" (paraphrasing). There was another story about how it's a man's moral obligation to beat his wife. Apparently every incel talking points including "BBC" is at least as old as that damn book.
