- Comment on Will the Democrats gerrymander every state they have control over? 3 days ago:
Gerrymandering is required in order to give minority groups representation. Dems do it to help these groups and Republicans point at that and claim the Dems did it first. So you’ve got a bigger problem to solve first.

Whenever possible, the kid’s decision should be respected. It is their life that is being decided. A birth parent who sees their child being happy in a new home can choose to “let them go” so to speak. The kid may choose to include them in their life later on. When abuse is involved, that’s when the kid can’t make the right choice for themselves, and we need the social worker’s help. The episode captures a real dilemma that social workers face when navigating these issues that involve vastly differing cultures.

As if driving at speed doesn’t naturally introduce enough visual stimuli and stress. Do you also spank your kids to ensure they get natural consequences?

Your comment is parroting Russian propaganda. They have been happy to let Western money and tech flow into Ukraine the past 5 years because they want that tech for themselves. They fully intend to reclaim Ukraine and use its muscle to augment their army. At this point, Ukraine must win this war.

OP knew how stupid of a decision it was, made it anyway, felt appropriate embarrassment, then posted it in a place they thought they would get group pity to validate their self pity. Group provides validation and the behavior has no motive to change. <- 4chan™

- Comment on Anon questions the epidemic 2 months ago:
It’s useful to talk about how the loneliness epidemic affects men and women differently. But when someone talks about the “male” loneliness epidemic and all it’s statistics about virginity, you know their bigger problem is how they spend their time online.
- Comment on Anon questions the epidemic 2 months ago:
If only I knew earlier that the males are all suffering with virginity. I could be out there solving this thing one by one (I’m gay).
- Comment on Anon questions the epidemic 2 months ago:
There is no male loneliness epidemic; there is a loneliness epidemic. They have been talking about it since at least 2020 and it predates the pandemic. Anyone calling it a male loneliness epidemic is absolutely engagement farming. The entire manosphere is a rage-bait-engagement-farming scam.

- Comment on Why is the world's "oldest profession" still illegal ? Instead of being better managed? 2 months ago:
Buckle up, bucaroos.
The world’s oldest profession is a catch-all for desperate, impoverished, oppressed women who “join” (under duress) the workforce in this industry. Sex work is more broad than prostitution. Porn models, escorts, and many others exists under its umbrella.
The woman’s body is the highest prize in patriarchal society. Men who get the prize without “earning” it (i.e. through marriage) and instead pay for it, feel ashamed, which they then project upon the worker. The quick ROI of the market attracts the worst predators in society, who harm and abuse the workers. (Not ALL men do this, yadda yadda).
The workers need extra legal protection, but there’s a significant overlap of predatory men and rulers, politicians, et. al., who don’t want their prey to have protection.
Whenever it is legalized, some horrific murder or routine abuse gets publicized and causes patriarchal moral panic. The blame inevitably gets placed on the sex worker, and the solution by the men in power is to outlaw it (begrudgingly, because they know it will now be harder to access). It’s the exact same reaction you see when a monogamous man gets caught cheating on his wife with an escort. In that case, the wife acts as an arm of the patriarchy and demands her husband blame the sex worker, which helps her avoid feeling the tough emotions that might otherwise end the marriage.
If you look at our current system, Only Fans is known to be a safe harbor for some sex workers. But we’re starting to see vultures called OF Managers (née pimps) moving in to commodotize the market. They are always here. The industry shifts and adapts to new societal norms (aka the regulatory environment) and the pimps are always right behind. The workers need extra legal protection from this threat.
But you’ll also notice how the manosphere (The Young Predators) has thoroughly entrenched a specific dehumanizing narrative online about OF workers. There is no legal appetite to adapt to the new threat. It will continue this way, sex workers being preyed upon, until something horrific gets publicized. Then there is a little battle between activists crying for better legal protection and the patriarchy crying for bans. The winner of the battle dictates which direction the legal system responds. Rinse and repeat.

- Comment on you know what's mildly infuriating? a reposter bot 2 months ago:
Social media as a whole has been abysmal about allowing content to be cited, linked, or tracked back to original sources. I consider it a fundamental flaw to solve. Imgur was one attempt but big tech was way too greedy and every site wanted to host (read: own) anything that gets posted. This could be one of the genuinely useful problems for AI to help tackle.
