Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge? That you?

That assumes that it is a neutral act and an act based souly on who hit first. It leads to some serious moral consequences to work based on the schoolyard politics of, "But miiiissss, he hit me first"

Since 112ish, I've had a bug where it keeps reloading rapidly. Forcing Xwayland makes it a little bit better but it is far from completely fixed

Does anyone remember Yogventures?

Putting it out there for someone to do this for cops in the UK. I can't run infrastructure but the cops terrorise out local community and constantly refuse to identify themselves/turn off their badge cam.

I don't really know what to say other than to say that there are absolutely guys that do this, because they see it as less stigmatised than therapy.

Seriously though, don't go using sex workers as therapists that you screw. Its fucking weird having a guy as old as your dad tell you about how hard his life is with his hand on your leg as it is.

I'm opposed to violence, however I define it differently to how the state does. One example of violence that wouldn't be considered by the state to be violence is calling the cops.

Violence is a hierarchy and as soon as you understand that, the more you understand it as a meaningless term.

I think I'm just gonna tag you as a misogynist with my Lemmy client and move on with my day. Maybe less demanding women debate you in the marketplace of ideas might be good for you. This is weird and beggy.

I mean, like, the concept of "submissive and breedable" is just rooted in a shitty origin really. It it dehumanising and minimises people to their ability to get pregnant. Spreading it outside of the context of the meme means spreading the misogyny of the term itself.

Are you actually trying to say you are not a misogynist while simultaneously calling a woman hysterical? Did you know that the Greek word for womb is "hystera"?

You'd be surprised that I had someone in my replies the other day saying they never came across misogyny on here. The replies are yikes.

Christ - some of these replies are exactly what a lot of women talk about when we say that Lemmy has a misogyny problem.

Blokes really don't recognize how much harder shit actually is for women, overall. It would be lovely to just sit on a bench for 5 mins without a stranger coming to chat me up, or if people would stop crediting men for my work when they don't even ask for it.

I know someone who does business IT where the ISP were trying to charge a huge amount to connect fibre to one of their sites. Thankfully, they had another site a few miles away that was already connected. They found it was cheaper to stick a pole on each building with an omnidirectional WiFi antenna. Apparently the speeds weren't too bad even though ping often left a little to be desired.

If you want a detailed response to this, reading Michel Foucault would probably be better than anything I could really say. He is a bit of a weirdo (putting it likely) like plenty of philosophers though.

This isn't just because people just see it on social media. It is because Murdock has a monopoly on the press. What isn't propaganda is clickbait nonsense and a good chunk of the public have noticed, even if that isn't specifically the words they would use.

Only ever had one of these, but I wasn't popular in school, and the vibe of person I have hung out since then are too anticapitalist for the most part.

Most of it tends to be where a woman will mention experiencing something disproportionately, as a woman, and there will always be a man in the replies saying that men experience it to.

There is a recurring thing on poor consent towards women's bodies too, particularly whenever SWers are mentioned. That's more of a carry over from Reddit though.

Railway history is incredible because it was very much built on personal spats between various millionaires and scam artists. Yerkes is probably my favourite example of both.

I didn't use Reddit towards the end so I might be a bit wrong but overall it feels a lot more likely that you will bump into the same people on here. Its nice that you don't really get your karma farming GallowBoob types.

The misogyny on here seems more intense though even if the mods and admins are more on top of it.
