- Comment on Why do some Americans "feel ashamed" for being American even when it's not their fault? 3 days ago:
When the rest of the world hates you for shit a minority of your country did, but succumb to generalized thinking and blame all Americans (looking at you, Europe), a guilt complex can be internalized.
- Comment on What game is a guilty pleasure of yours? 6 days ago:
Skyrim. Load up some new mods, play a completely different character. The magic of Bethesda’s old games is that they leave the player free to imagine what they are. The upside of having the PC have no personality is that you get to project whatever personality you like onto them. Don’t initiate the main quest, don’t bother with dragons, play pretty much the entire game as if it is your own sandbox. It’s grand.

Are you saying the second post is this one? Because that one was posted on the shitposting forum too, and it kinda just seems like a joke to me. Not a very good one, admittedly, but I don’t really see a pattern in the rest of their posting history either.
- Comment on Lemmy Politics 1 week ago:
Yeah, I agree. Just sayin’.

They posted that on the shitposting forum. Kinda seems like it was a joke.
- Comment on If Marx was alive during the Cold War and beyond, how would he react to the communist states that rose to power? Would he approve or disapprove of them? 1 week ago:
Of course he would disapprove. And, hopefully, learn something about human psychology, it’s relationship with power, and why single-party governments are a super bad idea.
- Comment on Dude read the rules of woman only community and decided to post anyway 1 week ago:
Ah, I was thinking it might just be that, but didn’t want to assume. Yeah, I don’t think it’s that big a deal. If the commenter came in and said some misogynistic shit, definitely, but just for commenting? Eh. Yeah, he shouldn’t have, but how much harm was actually done?
- Comment on Dude read the rules of woman only community and decided to post anyway 1 week ago:
I honestly don’t know what you’re offended by. Maybe I wasn’t reading closely enough, but could you spell it out for me?

It should be!

Funny, but the truth is that women are conditioned not to make the first move. Instead, they give subtle signs that most men aren’t educated to read. Women should be educated to be more straightforward and assertive.

- Comment on Why do Republicans hate the poor so much? 2 weeks ago:
There is so much wrong with what you wrote but I don’t have the time or energy to point it all out. Suffice it to say, you are clearly biased and not very bright. And might be trolling. Goodnight.
- Comment on Why do Republicans hate the poor so much? 2 weeks ago:
In order to truly understand this, you have to tear yourself away from the Republicans and start looking at conservative ideology itself.
At the core of conservative ideology is the very American idea of “pulling oneself up by their own bootstraps.” This is essentially the idea that, no matter the circumstances of one’s birth, one can achieve anything. Historically, this was a rebellion against the classism of old Europe, which was structured around a class system. So, in that context, it was a very liberal idea. The problem comes in when you start to recognize that people are not actual born on a level playing field, financially, culturally, educationally, etc. Today, the idea that everyone can “pull themselves up by their own bootstraps,” foments the lie that we are all born into equal opportunities in life, which is demonstrably false.
So, the core of conservative ideology is based on an untruth, and it has never reconciled this. Conservatives thus blame disparities in achievement in society on lack of individual effort, and don’t take into account differences in opportunity by birth circumstances. As such, when they see people who haven’t done as well as others, they attribute that to personal failings rather than circumstantial inequalities. When you see all outcomes as a result of personal effort, you can dismiss bad outcomes as the result of a lack of effort, and thereby justify denying the less fortunate help under the notion that it is unfair to the more prosperous because it rewards those who didn’t try as hard with the same outcomes who had to work for them.
Conservative ideology is simply outdated and uninformed by modern sociological research.

Kid Rock doesn’t know what a communist is, let alone a democratic socialist, but I’m pretty sure New Yorkers know what a MAGA shit-eater is and are 💯% okay with him not coming to NYC for an entire year.

I’ve noticed a drop in accuracy as well. I’ve actually started using the finger-drag method to type since it seems to be more accurate.

Feminist snark is much less effective when it’s based an utter ignorance of the science it’s poking fun at.

Further proof that intergenerational criticism in either direction is dumbass bullshit.
- Comment on Why did Thanos, with the power of all the infinity stones, never think to try doubling the amount of resources in the world? 5 weeks ago:
In the comics, Thanos is in love with Lady Death (sometimes called Mistress Death) who is a personification of death. Thing is, she doesn’t return his affections. So, he kills half the universe as a way to try to win said affections. I think the writers for the MCU probably felt that was a little too hokey to fly with modern/mainstream audiences.
- Comment on Why did Thanos, with the power of all the infinity stones, never think to try doubling the amount of resources in the world? 5 weeks ago:
The short answer is that they had to come up with something more palatable to a movie audience than “I’m evil and have a crush on the literal Lady of Death.”
- Comment on Carrot 5 weeks ago:
I have a female friend who is of the opinion that dick size doesn’t matter because only the first few inches of the vaginal canal has erotic nerve endings. I’ve told her that dick size is like breast size: some people care more about it than others and it is a factor. She continues to deny it matters at all.
I’m a guy of average size. I don’t have any insecurities about my junk. But I have enough experience and watched enough (realistic) porn that I know it matters, it’s just not a game breaker like some insecure men fear it is. That being said, size queens are a thing too.

Waffles. Greater surface area = more butter & syrup = higher cholesterol = greater chance of dying from a heart attack = end of existential life crisis. Existence be bullshit.
