        I watched the whole video and it just yells I read a 2010 Kotaku article about gamergate and a 7th grade English class. Why was this video relevant to this?

        Liberation of whom through these memes? Femcels? The folks who are choosing to associate with incels? How are they being oppressed? Do they have to shower and stop living in their fantasies? Is that the oppression?

        The person uptop made it seem to be a whole movement and inspiring. When it just sounds like it’s a bunch of keyboard NEETs who don’t talk to people. Wait yeah, it’s just incels.

        Nevermind, move along.

          Heh, foresaw you getting hung up on “liberation”

          It’s not complicated nor is it this profound thing: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/16007006

          It’s commisseration, really Can you just let some traumatized autisitic transfems (and others) have that?

          No? Yes? Doesnt matter. Thats the point of the video, it’s not about you. Thats also part of the point of parody’ing incels (which as an aside: the concept of invcel was originally coined by a woman and was meant to be a supportive, all-gender, friendly place – before the right co-opted it.

          No, i’m posting this for the next tranzqueer who comes along, who might [like I had] be unaware of these things and tend to gravitate to the Narrative of the Johns without reminders that there is so, so much more nuance, and meaning to be found in the world, beyond the limits of what is scripted, shot, edited, produced and published for the target audience composed of Stanleys & Johns.

          So thanks for reading. I did not expect you to watch that whole video, but since you did, I hope your life will be enriched by the appreciation that creations, be they AAA titles or shitty memes, dont need to make sense to your perspective in order for them to have great value, both to marginalized audiences who benefit from seeing themselves humanized, but also to the rest, because in order to dehumanize someone else you first demhumanize a tiny part of yourself – and art can heal that, too.

      Ay fuck your bad faith shit, this me-me is aligned towards feminine-presenting people (hence the call out for pockets) who want to date men. Sucks it ain’t you, but it’s roughly half the world, so it’s for a goodly amount of people to enjoy

      I’m guessing you don’t know what “spring breakers” meant, listen to the song by XCX to get a vibe for this if you actually want to try to have a laugh at this me-me

        Ah, so it seems you agree with my assessment of your attitude that started this conversation in the first place. “some dumbasses think that since hating women is bad it must mean hating men is good.”

          Y’all got no sense of humor? This is an over-the-top, unhinged parody of a triangle of needs. I ain’t getting why you’re stuck in time on “ruining some pathetic boy’s life” when “>12 hr screen time” isn’t even physically possible.

          Shit happens in relationships, sorry your heart got broken by someone with lil daggers in their cute lil pockets

          This is a me-me, you can’t “win”

          Edit; see this poetic statement as well and tryhard https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/15969707/10460784
