Naw, they shitty, horrible kids with bad opinions, but if I felt as strongly as you, and had a much free time, (my god i wish i had your time), I’d spend the same time repping this place and less time trying to gentrify it into another political war zone. But by all means dehumanize these stupid kids until you only see an enemy to safer defeat.

Thank you for the context so you can see how chill and goofy you are in your “fight against fascism” aka the kids who built and populated this platform initially.

Really, is that the vibe you think you bring to the table? I would have said a steady stream of argument bait. You usually don’t see chill goofy people maintaining entire threads of personal callouts. That’s just an imo tho!

I don’t think anyone who mentions that honor killings are a thing is saying that. Honor killings have been recognized by amnesty international as being a distinct threat to women worldwide that is present in America as well specific to Muslim majority countries in the Middle East and Asia.
I think any child has the potential of being killed by their angry parents, it’s happened very frequently from people of all backgrounds, but it’s ok to admit that a Muslim girl who doesn’t want to introduce you to her parents could be motivated by the fear of death or abuse in a very specific way. And i think it’s ok to tell this kid that this is a possible additional pressure based on her culture.
But it’s fair to say this has happened like a half dozen times in the US in two decades. That might feel like a lot, but considering the sheer number of Muslims who live in this country, that might as not happen at all.
I can keep both of these ideas in my head at the same time and not have a weird, knee-jerk meltdown in the comments!

This seems so dumb, like people have simply put names to the typical tropes of online conversation, it’s a very typical meta discussion that you don’t seem to want to engage in, so why waste the time?
Your solution doesn’t make sense, just take things less seriously! Are you the fucking Joker, this is serious shit. It only works if there are more likeminded people who share your “logical” opinion. If your solution is to always just overshout, you are agreeing to the will of the majority, which we call the tyranny of the majority in the United States. What happens when the majority you picture yourself as flips to the minority in the argument.
Congrats, you’ve just lost everything! Welcome to 2025. A zero sum game where if someone asks a genuine question with good discussion, people are going to come in to try to flip the table.

This is an excellent example of moving the goalposts, thank you!

You are honestly the cutest thing!

That’s not just a series of strawmen, you’ve managed to create a straw strandbeest!
But yeah, this is all virtue signaling and using silly arguments to try and hide it. I almost can’t believe i triggered you so bad you came back with 18 pages front and back!
- Comment on NYC woman who left swastika brick on Cybertruck is a woke therapist who blamed Elon Musk for tantrum 1 month ago:
Sure thing!
It’s wild this person would just randomly roll up on a swastitruck and put a brick and dump some trash on it. But they’re driving a car that’s associated with the nazi saluting dude, putting a swastika on it is appropriately labeling it, not targeting jews.
I’m not condoning what she did, but I wouldn’t care if she just put a piece of paper appropriately labeling the swastitruck. I’m saying you would normally call your sort of post virtue signaling, because the only time your virtue signaling ass cares about a hate crime is when a liberal does it.

Ya’ll called posts virtue signaling when the dems did it.

I don’t even think it’s this, you look at Twitter and see their American numbers tanking, becoming more like that doesn’t make sense from a business standpoint.
Now look at how every billionaire and big corp is bending over backwards to give Trump money. In his mind, a lot of them were complicit in 2020 for his loss, and everyone knows he looks for revenge.
These people like Zuck have no actual morals, he’s just hanging a sign that says he’s on their side, desperate not to be targeted. This is the same way he acted with Obama, the left just liked it.

Yeah, that’s his remaining audience in a nutshell. It’s legit creepy.
- Comment on He must be stopped! 8 months ago:
No, when he exposed his loli horse porn to the world I lost the respect I never actually had for him in the first place i guess.
It’s one thing to be so stupid you don’t have a different personal computer to do your weird jerk off shit. It’s another to then expose your creepy jerk off shit to your audience. It’s yet another third thing that your audience is willing to just ignore it and keep watching. Gross!

Pretty sure the only sentient being that would need to be worried around Vaush would be a little girl he wants to take on a stable tour.

- Comment on How Much Would You Pay to Make Sure You Never Sawed Off a Finger? 1 year ago:
This is objectively incorrect, unfortunately. It’s an anecdotal study with an n of 1. Whenever they check the numbers on this, table saws are responsible for like 40% of power tool related accidents. They’ve recently done studies that also show experience and training also don’t correlate to less injuries, complacency negates that for enough time to get injured.
The only thing that reduces injury are mechanical or physical additions to the devices.

Like if the light is bothering you, tell them, or tell an usher, why the fuck is it so ok to take creepshots. That’s what creeps do.
Not that this guy isn’t a creep, he could be… The evidence we have is pretty overwhelming, but so is the person behind him taking this picture.
But also… Don’t look at porn in public, even text porn, man I’m really torn up inside on this one.

What, for the fact we have course l clear data end children are being abused and we just ignore it?
Kids get abused at home, at school, and at church. We don’t give a shit about any of that societally.
- Comment on Please Consider Defederating from rammy.site 1 year ago:
Kids and schools. I always see people mention church but they never mention that there is a huge issue in just about every type of school too.
Youth pastors need to be put in jail, but we should have way more mental health professionals around schools so they can pick out abusive relationships too.
